Rasulullah (Allah bless him & give him peace) said: "Of all the days, Friday is the most virtuous. It is on this day that the trumpet will be blown. Send abundant durood upon me on Fridays because they are presented to me on that day."
The Sahabah radiallahu anhum asked: "O Rasulullah! How will they be presented to you when even your bones will not be present after your death?"
Rasulullah (Allah bless him & give him peace) replied: "Allah Ta'ala has made the earth haraam upon the prophets forever."

How to deal with anger.
One time, one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ got angry. The Prophet ﷺ told him to say something. The man refused to say it and he got even angrier. The Prophet ﷺ said, “I swear by Allah (swt), I know some words that, if he said them, his anger would leave him.” [Sahih Muslim]
What were the words? Authoo billahi min as-shaytan ar-rajeem (I seek protection with Allah from Satan, the accursed...

The above words were spoken by our beloved Messenger ﷺ to his wife, `A’isha radi allahu `anha (may Allah be please with her). A group of people had passed by the Prophet ﷺ and our Mother `A’isha, and said to him: “As-sa’amu `alaykum” (death be upon you).” It was a wordplay on “As-salaamu `alaykum (peace be upon you)”, with the intent of ridiculing the Prophet ﷺ. `A’isha (ra) became so angry...

seinedoll:
My father has been very affected by my sorrow and called every single day after her death. I desperately wanted her soul to be exempted from the punishment of the grave and I eventually became exhausted by my own response. I slowly realised how miserable and weak I truly was. Until adversities befall you best believe that your faith has not yet been tested.
When God takes someone you...

What I Learned About God from a 3 yr Old
You can learn so much about yourself, life, and God by observing your children. Today my 38 month old spilled something again after spilling the same thing this morning. He didn’t want me to be mad, so he starts cleaning it up and saying, “I clean it. I clean it.” Then when he saw that I got frustrated, he threw himself on the ground and said, “I bad kid!” I immediately stopped being mad and was...
