*📝. HOW TO ELIMINATE INTERRUPTION, TO CONCENTRATE IN PRAYER*


>> *It's a devil. His name is Khinzib*

In prayer, sometimes thoughts come to reduce the concentration of prayer. What should be done to get fervent prayer, and get rid of these disturbing thoughts?

 

This kind of case was experienced by one of his friends, namely Uthman bin Abil 'Ash radhiallahu' anhu. He came to the Prophet ﷺ complaining about the disturbance he experienced while praying. *Then he ﷺ said:*

 

ذاك شيطان يقال له خنزب فإذا أحسسته فتعوذ بالله منه واتفل على يسارك ثلاثاً

 

“It is *a devil. His name is Khinzib.* 

*_If you feel disturbed, ask Allah for protection from his disturbance and spit to the left three times."_*

 

Said Uthman, *"I did it too, then Allah removed the distraction from me."*

[HR. Muslim, no. 2203] 

 

*☑️Hadith Lessons:*

 

In the above hadith the Prophet ﷺ teaches us two ways to get rid of Satan's distraction in prayer:

 

1. Asking Allah for protection by reading ta'awudz (A'udzu billahi minas syaithanir rajim). This recitation is recited, not silently. This is lawful and does not invalidate prayer.


2. Spit lightly to the left by blowing air that contains a little saliva. This is allowed, provided that it does not disturb the person on the left and does not pollute the mosque.

 

Allahu a'lam.

Calling to Nationalism is a Call to Ignorance?

 Calling to Nationalism is a Call to Ignorance Question: What is your opinion regarding the call to nationalism which says that belonging to a race or language is more important than religion? These groups claim that they are not against religion, but that they consider nationalism to be more important. What is your opinion on this claim? Answer: This call is ignorance and it is not to ascribe oneself to it, nor to encourage those who call to it. Indeed, it is obligatory to destroy it, because Islamic law orders us to combat it and drive it out, to refute their analogies and claims with answers which make the truth clear to those who seek it. For it is Islam alone that keeps alive the Arab character, language, culture and morality. To snub this religion is, in reality, to destroy the Arab character in its language, culture and morality. Therefore, it is incumbent upon the (Muslim) preachers to strive hard to spread the call of Islam, in order to defeat those who attempt to suppress...

IN which time the Supplication is never rejected?

 ⚡Two Types of Duaa: The Messenger of Allaah ﷺ said:  ❝The supplication made between the Adhaan and the Iqaamah is never rejected.❞ 📚 [Sunan Abu Dawood (521) and Sunan al-Tirmidhee (212, 3595) and graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee] 📑 In explanation of the above Hadeeth, Shaikh Saaleh al-Fawzaan حفظه الله said: ❝Many people neglect to supplicate between the Adhaan and Iqaamah. They preoccupy themselves with the recitation of the Qur’aan. No doubt that the recitation of the Qur’aan is a glorious act, but the recitation of the Qur’aan has its own time. That one utilizes this time in making Du’aa and Dhikr is better, because the confined Duaa* in its proper time is better than making general Duaa (at any other time). As for the recitation of the Qur’aan then it is general, (meaning) it can be recited at all times. But this time (between the Adhaan and Iqaamah) should be allocated for making Duaa. So, utilizing this time in making Duaa, Dhikr and seeking forgiveness is bet...

Is it permissible to wear clothes which shows the skin?

It is not permissible to wear clothes which shows the skin Your Eminence Shaykh 'Abdul- 'Aziz ibn ‘Abdullah ibn Baaz; may Allah protect you!  As-salamu ‘alaykum warahmatullah wabarakatuh (May Allah's Peace, Mercy, and Blessings be upon you!). To proceed:  I am a married woman. Sometimes I wear light clothes which may describe the skin of my body or may be too short that they show my thighs when I sit. I wear these clothes because I find it easy to do home chores while wearing them. Sometime I wear them because of hot weather or to look attractive for my husband. But my husband advised me not to wear these clothes in front of our children. My children's ages range between three and nine years old. He fears that the children may remember their mother's appearance in these clothes when they grow up. I did not accept his advice on the basis that our children are still young. They are too young to be tempted by these clothes.  This issue occupies my mind and I would like...
