[sahih al-Bukhari; 4:95, Muslim; 4:2071] Ù„ÙŽØ¢ اÙلهَ اÙلاَّ اللّه٠وَاØÙدًا اَØَدًا صَمَدًا لَّمْ يَتَّخÙذْ صَاØÙبَةً وَّ لاَ وَلَدًا وَّ لَمْ ÙŠÙŽÙƒÙنْ لَّوْ ÙƒÙÙÙوًا اَØَدٌ La illaha ilAllahu, Wahidda(n), Ahada(n), Samada(n), lam yatakhidh sahiba(n). Wa la walada, wa la yak(n)ul-lahu kufuwan Ahad (There is no God except Allah, the One and Only, the Eternal, Who has not taken a partner nor a son. And there is none like unto Him) Whoever says the words above ten times, then 40,000 (forty thousand) good deeds will be recorded for him [Ahmad] أَسْتَغْÙÙر٠اللَّهَ الْعَظÙيمَ الَّذÙÙŠ لاَ Ø¥ÙÙ„ÙŽÙ‡ÙŽ Ø¥Ùلاَّ Ù‡ÙÙˆÙŽ الْØَيّ٠الْْقَيّÙوم٠وَ أَتÙوب٠إÙلَيْه٠Astaghfirullah al-'Adheemal-ladhi la ilaha illa Huwal-Hayyul-Qayyum wa atubu ilai (I seek the forgiveness of Allah the Mighty, Whom there is none worthy except Him, the Living, The Eternal, and I repent unto Him) Whoever says the above words, Allah will forgive him even if he deserted the army's ranks [Abu Dawud 2/85, at-Tirmithi 5/569, Al-Hakim who declared it authentic and ath-Thahabi agreed with him 1/511] اللَّهÙمَّ أَنْتَ رَبّÙÙ‰ لاَ Ø¥Ùلهَ Ø¥Ùلاَ أَنْتَ ØŒ خَلَقْتَنÙÙ‰ ÙˆÙŽ أنَا عَبْدÙÙƒÙŽ ÙˆÙŽ أنَا عَلَى عَهْدÙÙƒÙŽ ما اسْتَطَعْت٠، أعÙوذ٠بÙÙƒÙŽ Ù…Ùنْ شَر٠مَا صَنَعْت ØŒ أَبÙوء٠لَكَ بÙÙ†ÙعْمَتÙÙƒÙŽ عَلَىَّ ÙˆÙŽ أبÙوء٠بÙذَنْبى ÙَاغْÙÙرْ Ù„ÙÙ‰ ÙØ¥Ùنَّه٠لاَ يَغْÙÙر٠الذّÙÙ†Ùوبَ Ø¥Ùلَّا أَنْتَ Allahumma anta Rabbi la ilaha illa anta, Anta Khalaqtani wa ana abduka, wa ana 'ala ahdika wa wa'dika mastata'tu, A'udhu bika min Sharri ma sana'tu, abu'u Laka bini'matika 'alaiya, wa Abu Laka bidhanbi faghfirli innahu la yaghfiru adhdhunuba illa anta (O Allah! You are my Lord! None has the right to be worshipped but You. You created me and I am Your slave, and I am faithful to my covenant and my promise as much as I can. I seek refuge with You from all the evil I have done. I acknowledge before You all the blessings You have bestowed upon me, and I confess to You all my sins. So I entreat You to forgive my sins, for nobody can forgive sins except You.) The above du'a is known as the Sayyid al-Istighfar and is the most superior way of asking for forgiveness from Allah. Whoever says it during the day with firm faith in it, and dies on the same day before the evening, he will be from the people of Paradise; and if somebody recites it at night with firm faith in it, and dies before the morning, he will be from the people of Paradise. [sahih al-Bukhari 8, 75 #318] If someone implements ten verses of the Qur'an, He/She will not be considerate amongst the negligent on the Day of Judgment [Abu Dawud, Ibn Hibban - sahih] If someone implements one hundred verses of the Qur'an, He/She will be considered among the obedient on the Day of Judgment. [Abu Dawud, Ibn Hibban - sahih] If someone implements one thousand verses of the Qur'an, He/She will be amongst the extremely rich on the Day of Judgement. [Abu Dawud, Ibn Hibban - sahih] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haneefah Posted December 6, 2005 wa iyakum brothers. Indeed the Qur'an is the greatest reminder for us forgetful/fragile humans to keep remembrance of Allah (swt) at all times. It's the best way of feeding the soul and purifying/softening one's heart which is very much susceptible to filth/corruption. "And do thou (O reader!) bring thy Lord to remembrance in thy (very) soul with humility and in reverence without loudness in words in the mornings and evenings; and be not thou of those who are unheedful." (7:205) Remembrance doesn't really require one to allocate specific time or to seclude yourself from the world and to confine yourself to a total isolation, but rather it can be performed while going on about the most mundane aspect of your day...ie while driving to work/school (instead of listening to that fav radio station of urs), washing dishes, maybe cutting down a bit on TV time etc etc. I'll leave you guys with a nice nasheed Oh Most Magnificent --Ahmed Bukhatir PS. Ayaamaha, wlc to SOL walal, hope you enjoy your stay here Insha'Allah. Btw, I'm trying think where abouts Viborg was...was it by any chance close to Aalborg (oh how I miss that place ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
