Six Things to Know About Retiring Early

 Six Things to Know About Retiring Early Retiring early sounds simple: save enough money, leave your job, and enjoy the freedom. In reality, early retirement is less about choosing a specific age and more about building a financial system that can support your life without a paycheck. For some Americans, that may mean retiring in their 40s or 50s. For others, it may mean reaching financial independence and having the freedom to work only when they want to. Here’s what you need to know about retiring early: 1. Your retirement number matters more than your retirement age. 2. Your spending habits can matter more than your income. 3. Saving aggressively can dramatically shorten your working years. 4. Investing is essential because savings alone may not keep up with inflation. 5. Healthcare and taxes can become major early-retirement expenses. 6. Retiring early requires a plan for income, withdrawals, and unexpected costs. 1. Your retirement number matters more than your retirement age ...

*W*O*W*

"Imagine this: You’ve just crossed the Sirat (bridge over Hell) and made it to the other side. You are waiting for the doors of Jannah to open. Finally they open to the Prophet(peace be upon him) and you are in awe. Truly this place is as the Prophet described which “no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and the mind of no man has conceived”, [Bukhari]. What is the ground made of? It smells a little like saffron, Subhan’Allah! What are those trees with huge fruits? Is that a river of honey? Dip your finger in it, that can’t be honey! You’ve never had anything like it in your life. You try it again and it tastes even better. How is that possible? Ok, enough honey. Where is my house? As you are being escorted to your home, you see it’s not just a house. It’s a mansion! Not even Bill Gates had it this good, and you are told you earned it because you donated $10 for that masjid.If only you had donated more! Well this mansion is enough. You’re eager to start exploring.You ente...

THE IMPORTANCE OF TIME IN ISLAM There are among those who believe in the popular saying as "Time is Gold." Time in Islam is more than Gold or any precious material thing in this world. Of all religions, only Islam guides mankind not only to the importance of time but also how to value it. Allah the Almighty and His Messenger, Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), very clearly tell us the value of time, why we must not waste it and how we can make use of our time wisely to increase our Eeman (Faith) and thus attain success, especially eternal success in the life hereafter. The following are some of the most important duties demanded of Muslims: Ensuring benefiting from time Utilizing leisure time Racing for good deeds Learning from the passage of time Seeking the superior times Planning and organizing time Fulfillment of time commitments Necessary awareness of time wasters Both the Qur'an and the Sunnah enjoin Muslims to be conscious of time. We are reminded that li...

Very useful tip that would help doing good deeds easy and doing bad deed difficult........!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Assalamu Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakaatuh, We all know friends, that we do things that we really don't want to do and don't do things that we know are good and still not able be to do them. First, we should remember. LA HAWLA WALA QUWWATA ILLA BILLAH. The meaning of this expression is 'There is no power nor strength save in Allah'. Secondly, the reason why we do stuff is simply because we like it or we think we like it. Say for example, you got yourself into the habit of over-eating, and you want to get rid of it, now, how can you not do what you are doing. The reason why you might be doing this, there is that voice inside of yourself that tells you... I like to eat, I like to eat ice-creams, chocolates and so on... Another example, say you have an exam to give next week and you have not yet opened your text book to prepare for the exam, in this case, the voice inside might be saying to you.. I don't like studying, I better watch T.V, or play cr...

A Selection Of Durood Shareef

My favourite durood is DUROOD-E-SADAQAH    Durood Shareef are equivalent and give full benefits, but some selected and very promptly accepted and favoured Durood Shareefs are the following:- 1. DUROOD-E-IBRAHIMI ALLAHUMMA SALLI ALA MUHAMMADIW WA ALA AALI MUHAMMADIN KAMAA SALLAITA ALA IBRAHIMA WA ALA AALI IBRAHIMA INNAKA HAMIDUM MAJID. ALLAHUMMA BAARIK ALA MUHAMMADIW WA ALA AALI MUHAMMADIN KAMAA BAARAKTA ALA IBRAHIMA WA ALA AALI IBRAHIMA INNAKA HAMIDUM MAJID. "O Allah, let Your Blessings come upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as you have blessed Ibrahim and his family. Truly, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious. Allah, bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, as you have blessed Ibrahim and his family. Truly, You are Praiseworthy and Glorious". The famous companion of the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam), Hadrat Ka'ab bin Ujrah (radi Allahu anhu), narrates that once it was enquired from Sayyiduna Rasoolullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) as t...

10 Steps to Gaining Taqwa

10 Steps to Gaining Taqwa Take provision; but the best provision is taqwa of Allah. So have taqwa of Me, people of intelligence! (Surat al-Baqara: 197) What is Taqwa? Taqwa means consciousness, awe or fear of Allah, which inspires a person to be on guard against wrong action and eager for actions which please Allah and stay away from those actions which displease and anger him. the skins of those who fear their Lord shiver from it (when they recite it or hear it). Then their skin and their heart soften to the remembrance of Allah." [39:23] Why should we fear Allah? It is because we are fully reliant on Allah and we have no control over our final fate and the day and time when we will return to Allah. We are so weak, vulnerable and low beings whereas Allah is the greatest and most high, honoured and has power over EVERYTHING! Allah can take us at ANY second and what would become of us if we were taken whilst committing a sin? We would risk the torture of the grave and a day so t...

Muhammad (peace be upon him) - Excellent Example for Mankind

Assalamu Aleikum, Allah says in the Holy Quran: You have indeed in the Messenger of Allah an excellent example for him who hopes in Allah and the Last Day, and who remembers Allah much. (33:21). In this verse Allah instructs Muslims to follow Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him ) who was an embodiment of the great values and manners of the Holy Quran. He gave the best example for mankind in the human history. Many Muslim and non-Muslim writers bear witness that Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him ) is the greatest man in the human history. Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him ) was a good son who never forgot his parents. He lost his father before his birth. Shortly after his birth he was brought up by a foster mother in accordance with an Arabic tradition at that time. He rejoined his mother at the age of five. She passed away after one year. After so many years, he passed by her grave in his way to Makkah and stayed there for a while. Remembering the death of his mother in her w...

Five tips on how to control the tongue

Assalamualaikum Here are some tips on how we can control our tongues and increase in patience both in our communication with others and within ourselves: 1. Think The phrases “think before you speak” and “if you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all” seem clichéd, but hold a lot of weight in the life of Muslims. In order to combat this, think about what you are about to say before you open your mouth. It sounds simple, but we have become so accustomed to speaking without thinking that words just seem to fly out of our mouths before we know it. Tip: Try to take a couple moments before you speak to evaluate whether what you are about to say is beneficial or necessary. Spend more time doing dhikr, or thinking, or contemplating than wasting time on unnecessary speech, which is not beneficial and potentially harmful. 2. Apologize Hard as it may be, if we do happen to say something that is hurtful to someone, just simply apologize. Whether it was what you sai...

The Excellence of Du'a...The Essence of Worship

DU'A — Definition: Supplication, Invocation, Prayer Du‘a is the most powerful weapon of a believer. It can change fate, while no action of ours ever do. It is the essence of ‘Ibadah or worship. With it we can never fail; without it we can never succeed. With all the suffering and disasters Muslims are facing in various parts of the world, the question of Du‘a can be directed to all of us today. It is not that we have forgotten Du‘a completely; we refer to it regularly. But, our ideas and practice regarding Du‘a have become distorted. Often it is reduced to the level of a ritual. It is belittled through actions and sometimes even with words. Almighty Allah says: وَقَالَ رَبُّكُمُ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبَادَتِي سَيَدْخُلُونَ جَهَنَّمَ دَاخِرِينَ “And your Lord proclaimed, “Pray to Me, I will accept; indeed those who stay conceited towards worshipping Me, will enter hell in disgrace.” [Surah al-Ghafir, Verse 60] The Almighty Allah states: ...

A Quick Shortcut to Paradise -- Worth Memorizing

  Assalamu Aleikum wa Rehmatullahi wa Barakatuhu,   Sayyidul Istighfar- The Best way of asking Allah for forgiveness On the authority of Shaddad ibn Aws, may Allah be pleased with him, the Prophet, Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Aalihi Wa Sallam , said, “The chief of prayers for forgiveness is: اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي لّا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْت، خَلَقْتَنِي وَأَنَا عَبْدُكَ، وَأَنَا عَلَى عَهْدِكَ وَوَعْدِكَ مَا اسْتَطَعْت، أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا صَنَعْت، أَبُوءُ لَكَ بِنِعْمَتِكَ عَلَيَّ، وَأَبُوءُ بِذَنْبِي فَاغْفِر لِي فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ Allahumma anta rabbee la ilaha illa ant, khalaqtanee wa-ana AAabduk, wa-ana AAala AAahdika wawaAAdika mas-tataAAt, aAAoothu bika min sharri ma sanaAAt, aboo-o laka biniAAmatika AAalay, wa-aboo-o bithanbee, faghfir lee fa-innahu la yaghfiruth-thunooba illa ant. ‘O Allaah, You are my Lord, none has the right to be worshipped except You, You created me and I ...

please accept Islam and save yourself from hell fire

Hello Friends, I humbly request you to please accept Islam and save yourself from hell fire.  

Be a muslim!

Hello Friends, Today Islam is spreading  all over the world. Islam means " Peace acquired through the submission of one's will to Allah". So we need submit our will to Allah, to do that we need to live our life according to Quran (The word of Allah and the last revelation) and Sunnah (traditions of the last prophet Muhammed(peace be upon him)) . But we are given a free will to do what we like or not to do what Allah commands; as this life is but a test for the hereafter. The verse of Quran: Who has created death and life, that He may test you which of you is best in deed.[] And He is the All-Mighty, the Oft-Forgiving;(surah 30:2) Wise man is he who understands this and submits his will to the commands of Allah. Many of us dont understand this and are lost in the materialistic world day after day after day until the last day of their life comes along their way. Lets wake from this deep slumber and compete each other in doing good deeds. ...

stress and its remedy

 Hello Friends, Today we face stress in every walk of our life. Be it Professional or be it personal. The best way to beat stress is to have faith in Allah SWT and to seek his help in every issue of our life. We often forget that we can take Allah's help, no matter whatever the proble/issue be, we can always seek and get his help. We, in today's life style are n much need of Allah's help. We usually think that," Oh! I can sort it out myself or I can do it myself". And you get caught up endlessly without actually doing anything. We should not forget that : La Haula wa laa quwwata illaa billah. The above zikr of LA HAWLA WA LAA QUWWATA ILLAA BILLAH is often translated as ''there is no power nor might except with/by Allah'', but some scholars explain this in detail...for example, Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen says, ''It means there is no change from one condition to another nor power to do so except by Allah helping you...
