Birds, soaring and diving, must end their flight slowly. Landing and lowering their wings is harder than taking off and stretching their wings. Like a bird coming down from sky to earth that slows its wing beats and lowers them to gently touch land so was the Command of ALLAH (Glorified be He) to His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding believers: (And lower your wing to those of the believers who follow you) (Ash-Shu‘ara’ 26: 215).
Lower your wing, Lay down your pride, Let go of your own life, Adopt patience, Give and care for people, Relieve their burdens, Remove their ignorance, Let not your eyes overlook them, Man or woman, young or old, rich or poor, strong or weak, enslaved or free Humble yourself to th
“Allah has prepared (reward) for those who go out (to fight) in His cause: ‘And do not go out except (to fight) for Jihad in My cause, out of faith in Me and belief in My Messengers, but he has from Me a guarantee that I will admit him to Paradise, or I will return him to his dwelling from which he set out, with the reward that he attained, or the spoils that he acquired.’ Then he said: ‘By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, If a person gets wounded in the way of Allah, he will come on the Day of Judgment with his wound in the same condition as it was when it was first inflicted; its color being the color of blood but its smell will be the smell of musk. ‘By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, were it not that it would be too difficu
It was narrated that Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We were discussing when we were with the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), which is better, the Mosque of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) or the mosque in Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem). The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: “One prayer in my mosque is better than four prayers offered there (in Bayt al-Maqdis), and what a good place of prayer it is. [It is the land of the gathering and the resurrection.] Soon there will come a time when, if a man has a piece of land the size of a horse’s rope from which he can see Bayt al-Maqdis, that will be better for him than the whole world.” Semantics:
It was narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:“When Sulaiman bin Dawud finished building Bait-ul-Maqdis1, he asked Allah for three things: judgment that was in harmony with His judgment, a dominion that no one after him would have, and that no one should come to this mosque, intending only to pray there, but he would emerge free of sin as the day his mother bore him.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Two prayers were granted, and I hope that the third was also granted.”(Sunan Ibn Majah)
Narrated Bukhari and Muslim from Anas bin Malek, may Allah be pleased with him: Abu Talha had a child who was sick. [Abu Talhah was very upset and distressed by the child’s sickness.] Once, while Abu Talha was out, the child died. [Umm Sulaym (the mother) washed the child, enshrouded him and laid him down. She said to the people in the house, “Do not tell his father that he died before I tell him.”] When Abu Talha returned home [along with some of his friends from the mosque], he asked, "How is my child" Umm Sulaym replied, "He is quieter than he has ever been." [Her husband took it to mean that the child’s condition had improved.] She brought the meal and they all ate dinner, [then the guests left.] [She got up and put on perf
Narrated Anas bin Malik:The Prophet (ﷺ) was the best of all the people in character. [He used to visit Umm Sulaym and she would prepare food to welcome him] I had a brother called Abu `Umair, who, I think, had been newly weaned. [The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) would play with him] Whenever he (that child) was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) the Prophet (ﷺ) used to say, "O Abu `Umair! What did Al-Nughair (nightingale) (do)?" It was a nightingale with which he used to play. [One day the Prophet (ﷺ) came and he found him sad, so he asked: why is Abu ‘Umair sad?] They said: His pet bird with which he used to play passed. The Prophet used to say to him [kindly] "O Abu `Umari! What did Al-Nughair do?" "O Abu `Umair! What did
