Unveiling the Power of Tahajjud: Secrets to Wake Up and Connect with Allah Introduction Tahajjud is uniquely powerful among acts of worship; It is the prayer of lovers, the heart’s call to God while the world sleeps and like a secret yardstick measuring closeness to the Divine. The Qur’an describes those rising in the last 1/3 of the night as specially favored: The power of tahajjud is often highlighted by those who experience its benefits firsthand. “And during a portion of the night, pray with it as additional prayer [Tahajjud] for you; perhaps your Lord will raise you to a praised station.” (Qur’an 17:79) What is everybody’s wish to have blessings [barakah], sustenance (rizq), forgiveness, love, peace, prayers accepted; Tahajjud is that treasure trove. But how can we wake for Tahajjud? How can we taste the sweetness? Let’s open the heart to stories of the salaf, wisdom from Tasawwuf, references in Qur’an and Sunnah, and practical tips. Understanding the power of tahajjud can transform your life and deepen your connection with Allah. Summary: Tahajjud is the prayer of the friends of Allah It brings rizq, forgiveness, and nur in the heart The Prophet ﷺ and the Sahabah never abandoned it The Awliya of Allah like Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani (رحمه الله) found their spiritual power in it In sha Allah, some easy tips and duas to wake up for Tahajjud. Features of Tahajjud: 1. Tahajjud Brings Forgiveness and Closeness to Allah. The Prophet ﷺ said:“The closest a Lord is to His servant is during the last part of the night, so if you are able to be in those that remember Allah during this part of the night, then be in that.” (Tirmidhi) This is the time when heaven opens, and Allah asks, “Is there one seeking forgiveness so that I may forgive him? Is there one seeking provision, so that I may provide?” 2. Tahajjud Provides Rizq and Solutions to Problems The power of tahajjud is not just limited to spiritual gains; it brings tangible benefits into our lives. Tahajjud’s power is not just spiritual—it changes your dunya too. Many scholars relate rizq only comes with night prayer. People who pray Tahajjud report the sudden appearance of blessings, and healing and problems resolved in unimaginable ways. 3. Tahajjud Makes the Heart Alive Many believe that the power of tahajjud revitalizes the spirit and enhances emotional well-being. Imam Al-Hasan Al-Basri (رحمه الله) said:“We did not see worship more nourishing of the soul than Tahajjud.”Tahajjud softens the heart, eliminates arrogance and fills the home with light. Tasawwuf Knowledge: The masters of Tasawwuf viewed Tahajjud as the secret of wilayat (sainthood). Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani (رحمه الله) says that the path of the wali starts when the world sleeps, when Allah lifts the veils of the heart. The teachings on the power of tahajjud serve as a guide for those seeking spiritual elevation. Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti (رحمه الله) instructed his students: “If you want Allah to speak with you, you should wake up when the world sleeps.” The Chishti silsila grew in India because the Awliya never missed their Tahajjud and so their words struck the hearts of people as arrows of Noor. A story filled with authenticity about Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani (رحمه الله): He was once offered the gift of acceptance after offering Tahajjud in his youth. The voice told him that there was acceptance, and from that day forward he would seek Allah during all the night prayers. Story of Khwaja Gharib Nawaz (رحمه الله): He called Tahajjud “the secret talk between the lover and Beloved.” Through the power of tahajjud, many have found solace and clarity in their lives. Story of Khwaja Bandanawaz (رحمه الله): Who would wake up at night and weep so much that the mat he prayed on was soaked with tears. How to Wake Up for Tahajjud – Practical Steps: Utilizing the power of tahajjud can help you overcome life’s challenges with grace. Go to sleep after making wudu Read Ayatul Kursi before sleeping Make dua: اللَّهُمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَى ذِكْرِكَ وَشُكْرِكَ وَحُسْنِ عِبَادَتِكَ Keep your alarm away from the bed Go to bed with the intention of waking up: “Ya Allah, wake me for Your worship.” Arabic Dua References اللَّهُمَّ اجعلني من عبادك الذين يقومون الليل ابتغاء وجهك الكريم(“O Allah, make me among Your servants who stand at night seeking Your noble Face.”) رَبِّ أَعِنِّي وَلَا تُعِنْ عَلَيَّ، وَانْصُرْنِي وَلَا تَنْصُرْ عَلَيَّ(“My Lord, help me and not against me, support me and not against me.”) Conclusion: The Power of Tahajjud is not just a prayer, it is a lifeline. It revives faith, heals wounds, and grants peace. Even if you pray 2 rakahs with tears, it is better than a thousand heedless nights. May Allah grant us all the strength to rise when the world sleeps. “7 Duas for Morning Barakah You Must Start Your Day With”  “How to Teach Children to Love the Quran”   🌐 Connect with Us on Social Media Follow for daily inspiration, Islamic reminders, and soulful recitations.

10 Powerful Ways to Make Your House Full of Barakah (Quran & Sunnah Guide)

How to Make Your House Full of Barakah Introduction: Everyone wishes for a House Full of Barakah. A home where tranquility radiates from every corner, where people recite Qur’an, where love and mercy bind hearts, and where a person experiences the blessings of Allah. Today, people may live in extravagant homes but this does not guarantee tranquility. A house that is Full of Barakah is not rooted in wealth or materials, but in Imaan, Dhikr, love, and sincerity. The Sayyiduna Muhammad ﷺ has taught us that when Allah places Barakah in a home, then even a little is enough, but when Barakah is removed, even abundance can feel empty. This blog will hopefully show you step by step — using Qur’an, Sunnah, Tasawwuf concepts, and stories of inspiring Awliya Allah — how to turn your home into a House Full of Barakah. Summary: A home with Barakah is a home where Qur’an and Sunnah are implemented every day. Barakah can be wealth, love, health, children, food and spiritual peace. Dhikr, Salah, Qur’an reading and good character are means of bringing angels into the home. Disregard of Religion, disputes and haram acts remove Barakah. The great Awliya like Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) and Khwaja Gharib Nawaz (RA)), emphasized that homes where there is Ikhlaq and remembrance of Allah, there is Noor. Features of a House Full of Barakah Qur’an and Salah in the HomeThe Prophet ﷺ said, “Do not make your homes into graves. Shaytan is surely driven away from a house in which Surah Al-Baqarah is recited.” (Sahih Muslim)When a home has Qur’an recited in it, it is filled with light and clarity. Salah on a regular basis brings angels to the home while evicting Shaytan. Serving Guests and Family with CareThe Prophet (saw) said:“Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should honor his guest”. (Bukhari, Muslim)Hospitality opens up more rizq. A smiling and gentle atmosphere draws Allah’s mercy.  Contentment & Gratitude The Prophet ﷺ taught Shukr (gratitude) is the key to Barakah. When families eat together that starts with Bismillah and ends in Alhamdulillah, the Barakah in food multiplies. Deep Tasawwuf Knowledge In terms of Tasawwuf, a House Full of Barakah does not denote just physical comfort but spiritual illumination. The Sufis teach that when ego (nafs) is controlled and sincerity (Ikhlas) prevails, that house becomes a palace of Noor. Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) mentioned: “The house in which the name of Allah is recited becomes like a star shining for the inhabitants of heavens.” The Chishti saints stated that when a family comes together in Dhikr and recites Allah Hu, Allah Hu, the walls of the home will testify on the Day of Judgement that Allah was remembered in the house. Arabic Duas to Fill House with Barakah اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي بُيُوتِنَا وَاجْعَلْهَا مَأْوًى لِذِكْرِكَ وَطَاعَتِكَ(Allahumma barik lana fi buyootina waj‘alha ma’wan li dhikrika wa ta‘atika)O Allah, bless our homes and make them a place of Your remembrance and obedience. رَبِّ اجْعَلْ هَذَا الْبَيْتَ بَيْتَ سَكِينَةٍ وَرَحْمَةٍ وَبَرَكَةٍ(Rabbi aj‘al hadhal bayta bayta sakeenatin wa rahmatin wa barakah)O Lord, make this house a home of tranquility, mercy, and blessings. Spiritual Story of Awliya One time, Khwaja Gharib Nawaz (RA) visited a poor man in Ajmer. The house was empty, no food, no light. Khwaja (RA) sat down and recited Surah Yaseen with the family. Shortly after, neighbors brought them food, and in a matter of days the man’s life turned around. Khwaja (RA) said:“The Qur’an gives life to houses and he is not deprived of Barakah, who finds the people of Allah.” Conclusion A House Full of Barakah has nothing to do with worldly possessions, but everything to do with belief. It involves Qur’an, Salah, Dhikr, love, shukr and serving others. If you want your home to shine in dunya and akhirah, make it a house that remembers Allah, and practices the Sunnah. 👉 “Read Next: 7 Life-Changing Blessings of Reciting the Qur’an”👉 “Discover: How to Teach Children to Love the Qur’an”    🌐 Connect with Us on Social Media Follow for daily inspiration, Islamic reminders, and soulful recitations.

Islamic Morning Routine for barakah

Islamic Morning Routine for Barakah: 10 Life-Changing Habits Backed by Quran & Sunnah Introduction: The Power of a Barakah-Filled Morning Deep down, every believer has a desire to live a life of Barakah (blessings) — be it in time, health, wealth, family, and most importantly, faith (Iman). Islam teaches us that the early hours of the day are filled with Barakah and the Prophet ﷺ made du’a for his Ummah: اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لأُمَّتِي فِي بُكُورِهَا“O Allah, bless my nation in their early mornings.” (Tirmidhi) An Islamic Morning Routine for Barakah is not merely a task list — it’s a sacred transformation of your soul into a being of no longer sleeping, before the rest of the world awakens. Allow us to take you through a practical, soulful and powerful routine that over many centuries thousands of pious Muslims, saints, and scholars have kept and that you may adopt in order to naturally awaken divine light and peace into your life. Summary: This blog serves as a comprehensive guide to creating an Islamic Morning Routine for Barakah. It contains Quranic verses, Sunnah behaviours, Tasawwuf understandings, emotive spiritual narratives, and Arabic Duas – all of which are used to soften hearts and motivate performance. The morning routine includes Fajr Salah, dhikr, reflection, gratitude, and good deeds, all of which can include guidance from both Islamic Scholars and Sufi saints as your guide. Whether you are a devoted believing slave or someone just curious, this blog offers a path to being clear of mind and spirit, being enveloped by the path of Allah and the many blessings He has in store for you. Features of an Islamic Morning Routine for Barakah 1. Waking Up With BismillahBegin by saying: الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَحْيَانَا بَعْدَ مَا أَمَاتَنَا وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُورُ“All praise is for Allah Who gave us life after having taken it from us and unto Him is the resurrection.” (Bukhari) This connects your soul with the purpose of life right at dawn. 2. Performing Tahajjud (Optional but Recommended)This is the time when the gates of mercy are open and Allah responds to sincere supplications: “And during the night, wake up for prayer… it is expected that your Lord will resurrect you to a praised station.” (Qur’an 17:79) 3. Wudu: Washing the SoulThe Prophet ﷺ said: “When a Muslim performs wudu, his sins fall off with the water.” (Muslim) Wudu at dawn purifies not just the body, but the heart. 4. Fajr Salah: Key to Divine Light “Whoever prays the Fajr prayer in congregation, it is as if he has prayed the whole night.” (Muslim) This moment sets the tone of your day — from stress to serenity. 5. Dhikr & TasbeehAfter Salah, remain seated for a few minutes in remembrance of Allah: SubhanAllah – Alhamdulillah – Allahu Akbar – La ilaha illAllah اللَّهُمَّ أَجِرْنِي مِنَ النَّارِ“O Allah, save me from the Fire.” 6. Recite Qur’an with ReflectionEven 5 verses with tadabbur can sort out the heart! Suggested Surahs to read in the morning: Surah Yaseen Surah Mulk Surah Al-Falaq & An-Naas Ayat-ul-Kursi (2:255) Last 2 verses of Surah Al-Baqarah (2:285-286) 7. Morning Duas (Masnoon) اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عِلْمًا نَافِعًا وَرِزْقًا طَيِّبًا وَعَمَلًا مُتَقَبَّلًا“O Allah, I ask You for beneficial knowledge, good provision, and acceptable deeds.” 8. Gratitude Practice Say: الحمد لله على كل حال“Alhamdulillah in every situation.” 9. Avoid Social Media, Begin with PurposeImam Ghazali said, “Begin your day with the remembrance of your death and your Lord, not with dunya.” 10. Set One Good Deed for the DayIt could be: Helping someone in need Giving Sadaqah Forgiving a person who wronged you Teaching someone Qur’an A Sufi Story: Khwaja Gharib Nawaz & Barakah of the Morning It is said that Khwaja Gharib Nawaz (RA) would wake early morning and occupy himself with Tahleel and Istighfar. He would cry until his beard was wet with tears, pleading for the Ummah and asking Allah to guide the hearts of people. Once a man asked him why did he cry by himself? He replied: “I fear my heart is asleep in this world, and it does not wake before my Lord.” This love-filled fear and longing is what Barakah we pursue everyday. Tasawwuf Perspective: How Sufis Transformed Their Day with Fajr 1. Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) said: “The person whose day doesn’t begin with Allah, that whole day will end in loss.” 2. Khwaja Banda Nawaz (RA) spoke about inward purification during Fajr by seeing Allah’s light falling into your heart in his practice. Tasawwuf teaches that mornings are the time your ruh is back from the journey of the night. Whether you fill the day with dunya or presence of Allah, that decision is yours. A Heart-Melting Journey Through the Morning of a Believer The world is sleeping but the hearts of the beloved of Allah are awake. A morning routine based in Islam is not just an act of discipline, it is an opportunity for closeness to the Divine.Imagine this: The sky is filled with colors of mercy. You wake gently in the morning, whispering His Name. Water graces your body, and with it, your sins are drowned. You are standing, in humility, in front of your Lord. Every tasbeeh, is a drop of light falling into your heart. Every dua, makes its way to the Throne. And before the sun is even up, you have won your day. Barakah is not the amount you have, but the amount you are content with. Start your day with Allah, and watch how your world aligns!

10 Life-Changing Ways to Build a Strong Relationship with Allah

"Elegant English calligraphy of 'Strong Relationship with Allah' on an Islamic floral and geometric background with crescent moon and lanterns"

Introduction: In the silence of the night, when the entire creation rests and the hearts of humankind long for peace, there is one Name that brings peace — Allah. To establish a close relationship with Allah is not only the basis of our faith but the greatest long term aspiration of the human heart. There can be no true contentment, strength, and purpose without this bond. Let’s discuss the ways to nurture the closeness of Allah in our life according to the Qur’an, Sunnah, and the spiritual practices of our righteous predecessors. Blog Summary: How to Build a Strong Relationship with Allah In this uplifting blog, we will follow the timeless journey of development in closeness with Allah ﷻ through love, Dhikr, Tafakkur, and daily habits. While the journey in the blog comes from the Sunni tradition with its basis in Tasawwuf, it will present the journey in a practical manner. As we follow the journey, we will look at the means, for example, sincere Tawbah, reading the Qur’an, waking for Tahajjud, and calling upon Allah with his beautiful names, as tools to develop closeness to the divine. Emotional stories of Sufis, including Khwaja Gharib Nawaz (RH), illustrate how true love grows in hearts and changes lives. The blog discusses and prescribes some lovely duas, provides authentic Hadith, and provides advice from spiritual directors that include Imam Al-Ghazali and Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani (RH) to create an inspiring blog for any seeker wanting connections with their Creator. Whether you are coming to discourse on faith for school or rediscovering your spiritual roots, this article offers you the means, inspiration, and a heart-based practice in your efforts to fall in love with Allah to find a connection for eternity. Features of a Strong Relationship with Allah: 1. Deep Connection in Prayer (Salah) Regular, sincere, focused and consistent Salah is the heart and soul of faith. This is our personally scheduled, daily appointment with our Creator. When we do not recognize this scheduled appointment, our heart and soul goes empty. 2. Constant Remembrance (Dhikr & Duas)Keep your tongue wet with Dhikr. Say “SubhanAllah”, “Alhamdulillah”, “La ilaha illah Allah” with your heart, not just your tongue. 3. Trust in His Decree (Tawakkul)Having strong Iman means trusting Allah’s plans, even when life doesn’t make sense. Deep Dive: The Journey to Build a Strong Relationship with Allah A Spiritual Awakening As for every believer, there comes a time when you will feel far from Allah. But certainly, His doors of mercy are always wide open. The Quran says: “And when My servants ask you concerning Me, indeed I am near…” (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:186) This nearness is not one based on geography as though Allah is in a different place than us. Rather, this is an intimacy that must be created with Allah on a spiritual level. If you really want to Build a Strong Relationship with Allah, you must empty your heart of the dunya, and fill it with dhikr, love and a yearning for the Divine. A Story That Touches Every Heart Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (رحمه الله) said:“Whoever is near to Allah, the world will run after him, but he will remember Allah so much, that he will not even notice.” One night, he was engaged in worship, when he heard a voice saying, “I am your Lord.” He immediately replied, “Be quiet, O accursed one, My Lord would never break my prayer.” This reaction speaks to his Strong Relationship with Allah based on his knowledge and sincerity. Chishti Example of Divine LoveOnce, Hazrat Khwaja Gharib Nawaz (رحمه الله) did not eat for days. When asked why, he replied, “I have tasted the sweetness of relying on Allah alone. How can I ask for what my Creator provides abundantly from His creation?” It was compelling to see how these saints taught that the first step towards Allah, and the journey in general, is to cooperate and trust, sacrifice and trust, and love and trust entirely. Du’as in Arabic for Strengthening your Iman اللّهُمَّ حَبّبْ إلَيْنَا الإيمانَ وزَيِّنهُ في قُلُوبِنَا O Allah, make faith beloved to us and beautified in our hearts.(Surah Al-Hujurat 49:7) اللّهُمَّ اجعلْنا منَ الَّذينَ إذا ذُكِرَ اللّه اتَّقَت قُلُوبُهُم O Allah, make us among those when Allah is mentioned their hearts tremble. اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ حُبَّكَ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ نَفْسِي وَأَهْلِي وَالْمَاءِ الْبَارِدِ“O Allah, make Your love more beloved to me than myself, my family, and cold water.”(Masnud Ahmad) Repeat this dua after every Salah. Make it a part of your daily spiritual routine. Tasawwuf-Based Reflections: The Purification of the Heart (Tazkiyah)Building a Strong Bond with Allah means to eliminate pride, jealousy, and the love of this life from the heart. Sufi guides teach that love for Allah is a lamp that will only glow when the dust of sin is removed. The Secret of Muraqabah (Spiritual Watchfulness)Practicing Muraqabah — the state of always being aware of Allah’s presence — is one of the greatest methods for raising one’s Iman. Practicing Muraqabah was a critical part of the life of saints such as Hazrat Bandanawaz (رحمه الله), who were always aware of Allah with every breath they took. How to Strengthen the Connection with Allah Through Dhikr and Reflection (Tafakkur) The Sufi masters teach us, especially from the Chishti and Qadiri orders, that initiating a strong relationship with Allah revolves around Tafakkur, or deep reflection, and Dhikr, or constant remembrance. In his writings, Imam al-Ghazali (RA) describes how the heart is like a mirror that rusts with sins, distractions and desires. This is also why Dhikr is considered the polish to facilitate one’s way back to divine love. Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani (RH) once told his followers that:“When the servant makes Dhikr of Allah, then his soul becomes enlightened, and his heart becomes tranquil. This is the state of being in which divine secrets are discovered.” Practically speaking this means: Create quiet time each day to do personal Dhikr, even if just 15 minutes after Fajr or before sleeping. Reflect on,

signs of Strong Iman

Signs of Strong Iman (Faith) in Islam: 7 Heartfelt Ways to Know Your Faith is Alive Introduction: In a world full of distractions and temptation, believers regularly ask: “How do I know if my faith is strong?” Knowing and recognizing the Signs of Strong Iman (faith) allows us to assess our connection with Allah ﷻ and to re-ignite the flame of belief in our hearts! Iman is so much more than acting out physical rituals, it’s about a heart vibrating with love, humility and submission to our Creator. The Quran and Sunnah provide decisive signs of strong Iman. This blog will take you through the practical signs, heart-moving stories, and soul uplifting duas that will allow you to build indestructible faith. Summary: Recognizing the Signs of Strong Iman supports self-awareness. The heart of a strong believer is full of love for Allah and His Prophet ﷺ. Maintaining patience during tests is a sign of strong faith. The Sunnah, dhikr and the good character of a believer contribute to his strength. The stories of the pious Sufi saints motivate us to live with deeper Iman. Key Features: 1. Love for Allah and His Messenger ﷺ Over Everything ElseThe Prophet Muhammad ﷺ also said: “None of you will have faith until he loves me more than his father, his children, and all mankind.” (Bukhari & Muslim) One indicator of strong Iman is that one prioritizes Allah and His Messenger ﷺ over all attachments in this world. A heart that loves Allah will adequately follow His commands with sincerity. 2. Patience and Thankfulness in All CircumstancesTesting is what trials do and coming out successful is what faith does. Allah ﷻ told us: “Indeed, Allah is with the patient.” (Quran 2:153) When difficulty arises, the believer with strong iman remains composed, and when ease arises, they remain thankful. A very balanced heart, and in every situation turning to Allah; instead of complaining. 3. Commitment to Worship and Good CharacterStrong Iman is demonstrated with regular Salah, Dhikr, and ethical overall conduct. In fact, the Prophet ﷺ taught us that the best of deeds are those undertaken regularly, even though they are small acts. A person with true Iman exemplifies good character, does not gossip and picks others up. Recognizing the Signs of Strong Iman: Consider a believer who rises for Fajr despite the cold, recites Qur’anic duas whilst walking through difficulties, and forgives those who have wronged them. They might not be a scholar, but their heart is alive with belief. Strong iman is not about perfection, it is about direction. The heart moves to Allah even after having made mistakes. Such a believer only wants to run back to Allah in repentance, finds joy in their worship of Allah, and finds comfort in the Quran. The righteous saints had realization of this deeply rooted in them. Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) stated: “The heart of a believer is like a lamp. If the oil of dhikr (remembrance of Allah) is strong, it can give light even on the darkest night.” Likewise, Khwaja Gareeb Nawaz (RA) taught that love and service to humanity is a measure of strong iman, as it exemplifies the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ. Khwaja Banda Nawaz (RA) of Deccan made impact on generations when he demonstrated that iman can increase through humility and tawakkul upon Allah. Even his gatherings would leave the attendees in tears as he described the sweetness of iman. Sign of a Strong Iman: Loving Allah more than the Dunya No longer committing sins even when alone Finding joy in Salah and the Quran Being humble and forgiving Showing compassion to family and total strangers Having great trust in Allah’s plans Finding tears when thinking about Allah Arabic Dua for Strong Iman: اللّهُمَّ اجعل الإيمان أحب إلي من نفسي وأهلي والمالِ العَافي “O Allah, make faith more beloved to me than myself, my family, and unpolluted money.” Conclusion: Strengthening one’s Iman is a continuous task for a lifetime. When we acknowledge the Signs of Strong Iman, and develop those signs by utilizing and building the foundation of the Quran, Sunnah and dua, we form hearts that stay firm through trials. Allah ﷻ states: “Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds – the Most Merciful will appoint for them affection.” (Quran 19:96) May Allah ﷻ have our hearts bursting of Iman and our lives showcasing the beauty of Islam.

Teach them some of the Arabic supplications to ask for understanding like, Ask them what they think about how to learn Quran and engage in meaningful conversations. اللهم اجعل القرآن ربيع قلوبنا“O Allah, make the Quran the spring of our hearts.” A Journey to Teach Children the Quran: Teaching is no ordinary task, it is a blessed journey. In fact, it says:وَلَقَدْ يَسَّرْنَا الْقُرْآنَ لِلذِّكْرِ فَهَلْ مِن مُّدَّكِرٍ “And We have certainly made it easy for remembrance, so is there any who will remember?” (Surah Al-Qamar 54:17) A mother once told her child – “This book saved your father from darkness. It brought your grandfather to Islam. It made me cry in sujood”. That boy became a Hafiz – not because of fear or regulations, but because there was love for it in their home. Explain how to learn Quran through storytelling can enhance their connection to the text. Sunni scholars like Imam Al-Ghazali (RA), highlighted the importance of instilling love in advance of obligation. Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani (RA) was raised by his mother with the teachings and deep adab as part of his spiritual vow. His love for Allah bore toxic fruit from that nurturing environment. Even Khwaja Garib Nawaz (RA) used to sit with young seekers and informally tell them, “It is not a book of ink—it is Allah’s voice to your soul.” The intention of the two themes of this post is to illustrate that children are not cold wood, kids are wet clay. We can shape them using duas, mercy and awe for these incredible divine words. Motivate children to feel their feelings when reading it. Find a corner of your house to invest into as sacred space. Play nice recitations in the morning. Encourage them to write verses. Allow each moment within for a special memory. Encourage them to explore various resources on how to learn Quran effectively. There are children who cry when they read Surah Al-Fatiha, not because they understand the Tafsir, but because they were taught that these were Allah’s words and are filled with love and mercy. Tips to Make Children Love Quran: Read WITH, not to them. Celebrate the little things like them learning one verse. Make it a family tradition to discuss how to learn Quran during gatherings. Use colourful mushafs and Islamic tales. When telling bedtime stories, tell the stories of the Qur’an. Share your own journey on how to learn Quran to inspire your children. Reward consistent action with love instead of bribes. Relate verses to everyday life – Surah Al-Fil to the strength of Allah! Du’a must always be made :اللهم حبب إليهم الإيمان وزينه في قلوبهم“O Allah make faith beloved to them and beautify it in their hearts.” Remind them that how to learn Quran is a journey, and every step counts. Real-Life Spiritual Story: In Deccan, India, Khwaja Banda Nawaz Gaisu Daraz (RA) was said to invite children to his Majlis. One day he asked a young boy to recite Surah al-Fatiha. The young boy hesitated. The Sheikh smiled and placed his hand across the boy’s heart and said, “Oh, pour from this soul.” The boy then fluently recited. His love for it evolved into sainthood later in life. Conclusion It is for scholars, but also for every child, every person. Spread its love today, nourish it with your tears, your duas, and your consistency and Allah will let it flourish in their hearts. Teach with love and Allah will guide with light.

Remembering Allah in the morning allows us to begin our day connected to Allah and spiritually alighted. 2. Sunnah Practice of the Prophet ﷺThe Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was known to consistently recite the morning adhkar. He would initiate his day with phrases like: اللهم بك أصبحنا وبك أمسينا“O Allah, with You we enter the morning and with You we enter the evening…” In fact, such practices provided a sense of calm and strength against the trials of life. 3.

Integrating powerful morning duas into your routine will illuminate your path and attract barakah into your life.

7 Life-Changing Benefits of Reading Surah Al-Kahf on Friday

Peaceful natural setting with a closed Quran at cave entrance – ideal for Surah Al-Kahf Friday blessings blog

Benefits of Reciting Surah Al-Kahf on Friday Introduction: In a globe that feels like it is overcrowded with confusion, chaos, malaise, and fitnah (trials), the Quran is the best light for guidance. One of these lights is Surah Al-Kahf. Reciting on Fridays is a Sunnah and a source of barakah, protection, and divine insight. The benefits of reciting Surah Al-Kahf on Fridays are firmly based on the Hadith of the Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him) and legitimized through practice and awe by righteous users, scholars, Sufis, etc., over the decades, al-Kahf’ means ‘cave.’ It is exciting to think about, while going on this journey to understand the vast worth of this Surah and modifying our Fridays into times of reflection, light, and closeness to Allah. Summary: Surah al-Kahf is a light for the week. It provides protection from Dajjal and fitnah of the end time. Reciting it on Friday brings innumerable reward. Mentioned in authentic Hadiths with strong spiritual significance. Recommended and enjoined by Sunni scholars, Sufi saints and righteous ones. Three Major Features of Surah Al-Kahf: 1. A Protection Against the Dajjal’s Fitnah The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Whoever memorizes the first ten verses of Surah Al-Kahf, he will be protected from the Dajjal.”(Sahih Muslim) 2. A Light for One Whole Week “Whoever reads Surah Al-Kahf on Friday, it will give him light (Wisdom) from one Friday to another.” (Al-Jaami) 3. Spiritual Revival and Mental Comfort The stories in the Surah – of the People of the Cave, the Owner of the two Gardens, Musa and Khidr AS, and Dhul-Qarnayn – hold messages of patience, humility, reliance on Allah, and preparation for the unknown. The Inspiring Heart-Melting Essay: A Chapter That Awakens the HeartWhat if you could begin your Friday with Surah Al-Kahf beating at the pulse of your heart? By the time you have finished Surah Al-Kahf… [which you did on the way to work!] you have now received the clean energy of Allah’s light. You feel open to Allah’s mercy as you exhale any worry, anxiety or worldly confused muck that has made itself present in your heart this week. Surah Al-Kahf is a salve for your spirit… it soothes your soul, enters your heart with Allah’s mercy, and reminds you that you are never alone. Surah Al-Kahf is not simply a recitation anymore than your prayers with Allah are routine. A connection has been formed between the Creator and His servant. But what of those young men in the cave? They had nothing else going on in their lives; they abandoned everything for the sake of Allah. They trusted Allah to protect their faith, few of us have even the ability to sacrifice comfort in our lives to protect our Iman. Let us consider the arrogant and arrogant man of the two gardens who was forgetful of the role Allah played in his wealth that he collected. Then, the story of Prophet Musa (A.S) and Khidr (A.S) teaches us about humility as it relates to our perception of prophet Musa as he encounters Khidr (A.S). Each verse serves as a mirror for our life. Are we ever satisfied and truly grateful? Are we ever patient? At all times, do we trust Allah sufficiently, leaving all of the ‘making things happen’ to Allah? In today’s age of distraction, fitnah, disbelievers and disbelief, the Surah Al-Kahf serves as an armor for our spirit. It grounds us, makes us re-connected, and reminds us that we are not living for dunya, but for Jannah. The Sufi Legacy and Surah Al-Kahf: Numerous great Sufi saints, including Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani and Khwaja Gareeb Nawaz, would frequently tell their followers to read Surah Al-Kahf. Khwaja Bandanawaz mentioned the “light of Fridays” in his letters when instructing his disciples to take on illumination, essentially through Surah Al-Kahf. A Spiritual Story There once was a young man who was lost in the worldly life and attended Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani’s Friday program. Given all of the Shaykh’s advice, he made a commitment to read Surah Al-Kahf every Friday. And within months, his heart changed, his life changed, and he found clarity and purpose. He eventually became a caller to Islam. Such is the effect of this Surah. Beautiful Arabic Duas to Recite After Reading Surah Al-Kahf: اللهُمّ نوّر قلبي بنور القرآن“O Allah, illuminate my heart with the light of the Quran.” اللهم اجعل القرآن ربيع قلبي ونور صدري         “O Allah, make the Qur’an the spring of my heart and the light of my chest.” Benefits of this Surah: Guardianship from the fitna of Dajjal. Light for the entire week. Increases Iman and tawakkul. Reminder of the Hereafter. Increases love for Quran and Sunnah. Encourages patience and humility. Brings barakah into one’s life. Revives the Sunnah of recitation on Friday.

He asked the man, “Do you daily read the verses of protection?” The man said no. The Sheikh gave him a silk pouch with Surahs written in, and commanded him to recite Ayat Reading Kursi, Falaq and Nas daily. In weeks, he began to see a difference in his life. He returned weeping and thanking the Sheikh. “You were never afflicted by misfortunes,” said the Sheikh, “only by the abandonment of seeking divine protection.” These are not just stories. They are the remnants of those who walked before us in faith and tawakkul. Saints including Khwaja Gharib Nawaz (RA) would never abandon the stronghold of morning and evening adhkar. Practical Tips to Use in Daily Life: Recite protection duas before posting blessings online Blow over your children with Surah Falaq and Nas before sleep Avoid boasting of blessings – practice gratitude silently Conclusion: Protection is not fear, it is belief. The evil eye and jealousy are weapons that are well hidden, but our Deen has provided us with an even better shield. Put this du’a into your soul’s prescription, and Allah will be your protector. I hope every reader finds comfort, cries from love for Allah, and feels tranquil knowing these prescriptions are by the power of His Infinite Mercy.
