FIVE THINGS THE UMMAH WILL BE TESTED WITH

Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him)said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) turned to us and said:
“O Muhaajireen, there are five things with which you will be tested, and I seek refuge with Allaah lest you live to see them:
1. Immorality never appears among a people to such an extent that they commit it openly, but plagues and diseases that were never known among the predecessors will spread among them.
2. They do not cheat in weights and measures but they will be stricken with famine, severe calamity and the oppression of their rulers.
3. They do not withhold the zakaah of their wealth, but rain will be withheld from the sky and were it not for the animals no rain would fall on them.
4. They do not break their covenant with Allaah and His Messenger, but Allaah will enable their enemies to overpower them and take some of what is in their hands.
5. Unless their leaders rule according to the Book of Allaah and follow the guidance of Allaah, Allaah will leave them to fight one another.”

Narrated by Ibn Majaah (4019) and classed as hasan by Shaykh al-Albaani Rahimahullah.

Daily Hadith: 3rd Rabi' Al-Thani 1442 (18th November 2020)

Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah

Narrated Abu Huraira (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

The Prophet (SAW) said:

"Angels keep on descending
from and ascending to the Heaven
in turn, some at night and some by
daytime, and all of them assemble together at the time of the Fajr and 'Asr prayers. Then those who have stayed with you over-night, ascend unto Allah Who asks them, and He knows the answer better than they,
"How have you left My slaves?" They reply, "We have left them praying as we found them praying." If anyone of you says "Amin" (during the Prayer at the end of the recitation of Surat-al-Faitiha), and the angels in Heaven say the same, and the two sayings coincide, all his

This is a good one to start with this morning. Nigeria is like any other country; we have excellent policies, brilliant people, intelligent than so many around the world, yet that 'anyhowness' is what is pulling us back. Angels won't come down to fix the country. It is me & you!
The country is a country like any country of your dream. The system is there, but what is a system without those that run the system? Who runs the system? Why is it this bad? We run it, & it is this bad because we are bad. Until we begin to fix ourselves & our dark minds,
we will forever remain here. When the system works, I mean, when we make the system work, it works for all of us. When we decide to do anyhow, we all reap the rewards of the anyhowness. As you wake up today, remember that you are a result of your own action. We all are.

Dear Gov Nasiru @elrufai,

The security situation in Kaduna is worsening by the day, a clear indication of failure of your govt to secure lives & properties. This is all we can see from the surface. It might not be so completely, but as the chief security of your state, we
believe everything is in your hands. When the lives of people are not secured, I do not know what exactly will add value to them. In my most candid opinion, securing our lives & properties is more important than the Kaduna Urban Renewal. Have you been overwhelmed sir?
Have you given up on the insecurity challenges already? Today, no single person in this state feels secured. People go to bed not sure of what will happen to them before the next morning. The problems have been going up & the crimes emboldening.

The Fake News merchants do not just do it for fun. The leaders of the fake news business do sponsor the so-many out of job young Nigerians & pay them some token to buy data, buy a day's meal & buy a power bank. With a cheap android phone, the space for spreading mischief is on. ImageImage
The Govt isn't doing enough to take care of the so many challenges of the society. The poverty rate, unemployment & poor governance and insecurity are too much for a nation like ours to survive. At the end, we are only giving chances for mischief makers to sell every lie to the
people and they will buy. When leaders lost the goodwill of the followers, trust and confidence evade the led & leadership becomes a very big problem.

To all the leaders in Nigeria in whatever capacity, you are not doing enough. Do more for us, in your own capacities.

Please is there anything I am not getting on the issue of this Rahma Sauda lady? I know I have not been consistently following the most recent happenings on this street, thanks to some new developments. However, the little I gathered is what I will talk about. Correct me where I
go wrong. A random Hausa actress, which so many of you watch in your homes for entertainment displayed herself in a manner that the Islamic culture doesn't approve of. Obviously, she revealed part of her body, the same way some of you that play football display part of yours.
She wore a dress that revealed her Awrah, & some of you playing football also wear shorts that reveal part of your Awrah. Awrah is Awrah and sin is sin, whether it is committed by Sadau or Sadi. There was an illogical & counterproductive approach to correcting her, because
