Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatu Dear
Brothers & Sisters in Islam
While
many people are aware of the great rewards of fasting on the day of Ashurah,
with an accompanying day as per the sunnah of our Beloved Nabi Muhammad (SAW),
not everyone is aware that the entire month holds great blessings for the
person who fasts . . .
The
beautiful Hadith below shows us the high value of fasting in this month…
It
also highlights the high value given to Tahajjud salaah . . .
Recently,
a good friend of mine made a remark that got me thinking. . . It was something
along the lines of: "If there's something you want and you haven't gotten
up for Tahajjud, to ask Allah (SWA) for it, you didn't really want it
enough"...
That
really got me thinking.. How very true!!! For it is in the last third of the
night that Allah (SWA) descends to the lowest heavens asking if any of His
slaves wants to ask anything of Him, so that He may grant it! And if Allah
(SWA) is willing to grant our requests, surely we can make that effort… And if
we're not willing to sacrifice some of our sleep for what we long for, then
surely in our heart of hearts, it can't be that important to us, right?!? …
May
Allah (SWA) help us all to strive to attain the blessings of this month, as
well as Allah (SWA)'s nearness, mercy and forgiveness, Insha-Allah, Ameen!

The Messenger of Allah (sal
Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: "When a person dies, his/her deeds come to
an end except for three things:
1. Sadaqah Jariyah
(ceaseless charity) - any good deed done from which people continue to benefit
despite the demise of the person who originated it. e.g., the establishment of
a madrassa or masjid from which people are rightly guided, or the sponsoring of
a Hafith student; 2. Knowledge which is beneficial - knowledge imparted verbally or by any other means through which people become better Muslims
3. A virtuous descendant who prays for him (the deceased)." [Sahih Muslim]
