Umar R.A became a Muslim after listening to the beginning of Surah Ta-ha.
Ta-Ha.
We have not sent down to you the Qur'an that you be distressed
But only as an admonition to those who fear Allah (Qur'an 20:1-3)

He was astounded. It was as if the Qur'an was addressing him directly
After reciting few verses, his sense of justice could no longer deny the truth of the Message
Prophet ﷺ had also made a dua for this occasion -"O Allah, help Islam with one of the two men that is more beloved to You: Abu Jahl or 'Umar ibn Al-Khattab & the more beloved was Umar."
As Umar R.A was reciting Qur'an (Surah Ta-ha), his heart began to melt down. He began to cry.
He then went straight to the house of the Prophet ﷺ. Once he was admitted in the house, the Prophet ﷺ asked him for the reason of his visit.
Umar R.A replied: "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I have come to you in order to believe in Allah & His Messenger & that which he has brought from his Lord." Upon hearing this, the Prophet ﷺ and the Companions shouted "Allahu Akbar" so loudly that it could be heard at the Kaabah!

@Hadithoftheday Anticlockwise.
Tawaf means walking around the Kabba seven times. The moving process begins in the opposite direction of the clock which is called Anticlockwise orientation.
@Hadithoftheday The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Whoever circles the Ka’bah seven times and prays two cycles will be rewarded as if he has freed a slave (Ahmad)
@Hadithoftheday Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: “Tawaaf is prayer, so when you do tawaaf, speak little.” (An-Nasai and Ahmad)

A thread :

“A Man of Evident Splendor” – Description of The Prophet ﷺ by Umm Ma’bad, :

Her name was 'Aatikah bint Khaalid' & 'Umm Ma’bad' was her nick name.Her name is connected to one of the greatest event in the Prophet ﷺ’s life, the Hijrah from Makkah to Madeenah
She was a famous, chaste, strong and courageous woman and had a camp in "Qudayd". She would sit down in the courtyard of her camp wrapped-up in her garment, generously providing food and drink to the travelers who passed by.
During the hijrah of the Prophet ﷺ, he stopped by her tent with his companions for some rest and food.

“It was narrated that the Messenger ﷺ, his servant, a guide and Abu Bakr R.A left Mecca, passing a tent of an elderly lady called Umm Ma’bad.

@Hadithoftheday Maryam (A.S) or Mary

The only chapter named after a female or lady in the Quran is Maryam A.S

A chapter named after her is called Surah Maryam (Chapter 19,verses 98). Maryam A.S is also mentioned in the Holy Quran directly by her name 32 times.
@Hadithoftheday Maryam A. S has an entire chapter in the Qur’an named for her — the only chapter in the Qur’an named for a female figure.
The best of women among the people of Paradise are 4 : Khadija , Fatimah bint Muhammad, "Maryam bint ‘Imran", and ‘Asiyah ,the wife of Pharaoh.” -(Hadith)
@Hadithoftheday Surah Nisa is also another chapter of Quran which is named as "The Women". It is fourth chapter of Qur'an and comprises of 176 verses.
"Nisa” in Arabic is “Women.” This Surah is named so because it mainly discusses issues and laws regarding women.

@Hadithoftheday It's said that it would be on Friday but there is no proof about it.Allah knows best
Allah says in Qur'an:
“They ask you about the Hour (Day of Resurrection):When will be its appointed time? Say:The knowledge thereof is with my Lord (Alone).None can reveal its time but He [7:187]
@Hadithoftheday Narrated Abu Hurairah R.A that the Prophet ﷺ said: "The sun has not shone in a day better than Friday. It is the day in which Aadam was created and was descended (to earth), It is the day in which The Hour (Day of Judgement) will take place" (i.e. Friday). - Tirmidhi, Abu Dawood
@Hadithoftheday Abu Huraira reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying:
The best day on which the sun has risen is Friday; on it Adam was created. on it he was made to enter Paradise, on it he was expelled from it. And the last hour will take place on no day other than Friday. - Muslim -1977

@Hadithoftheday Ibraheem A.S.
Angels came to Ibraheem A.S's house as visitors to give Ibrahim A.S and Sarah A.S glad tidings of son who was to be born to them, once the matter had been addressed, angels returned to the subject of Lut’s A.S people.
@Hadithoftheday One day Ibrahim A.S was sitting outside his tent, angels descended to the earth. They came in human shapes and saluted Ibrahim A.S. Ibrahim A.S arose and welcomed them. He took them inside his tent thinking they were strangers and guests.+
@Hadithoftheday He invited his guests to eat & placed before them a sumptuous meal of roasted calf.They were angels & did not eat.The angels gave Sarah glad tidings of the birth of a son, Ishaaq.She could hardly believe the news. As a "barren old woman" the news seemed to her too good to be true

@Hadithoftheday Al-Baqarah (The Cow) - Chapter 2, and Al-Feel (The Elephant) - Chapter 105 of Quran.
Both belong to the family of mammals.

However, An-Nahl (the bees), An-Naml (The Ant), and Al-Ankaboot (The spider) belong to family of insects. But insects come under the family of animalae.😉
@Hadithoftheday There are six chapters in the Quran which are named after animals or insects:
1. Al Baqarah (The Cow)-Chap 2
2. Al An'aam (The Cattle)-Chap 6
3. Al Nahl (The Bees)-Chap 16
4. Al Naml (The Ants)-Chap 27
5. Al Ankabut (The Spider)-Chap 29; &
6. Al Fil (The Elephant)-Chap 105
@Hadithoftheday 1. Surah Baqarah : The title of this surah refers to an argument between Musa A.S and the Israelites over a cow they should sacrifice in order to make known the murder of a slain man.
Story is mentioned in verses between 67-73 of Surah Baqarah.
