KALAM E SHEIKHULAM ENGLISH 5

Let thou glaze thy soul like the glass. Thus reality can thou ascertain. Stare not thy vile being. Die Before You Die That is Mediation. ‪#‎ kalame‬ ‪#‎ sheikhulalam‬ “Die before you die” is a well known Hadith. Being familiar with this Hadith, a man asked Shaikh AbdulQadir Jilani, “How do I die?” He, Allah Bless his soul,said: “Cease following your mind, desire, carnal self (nafs), passions, karma and common habits. Abstain from seeking the people, desiring what they have orasking them for alms. Give up on them and stop associating them with Allah’s will in the giving or withholding. Ask nothingfrom anyone besides Allah Almighty. Let allyour deeds be done for Allah’s sake and for the pleasureof his Divine Countenance, not for the sake of reward or favor. Accept His Management, Judgment and Doing. When you do so, you will be dead to yourself, but alive in Him. Your heart will become his abode. He turns it as He Pleases, and your heart will be transferred to the Ka’aba of His proximity. You will hold fast to its covering cloth (sitra), alwaysremembering Him, praising Him and forgetting aboutanything else. Today the key to Paradise is the proclamation: La illaha il-Allah, Muhammadur-Rasul Allah (There is no god but Allah, Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah) Tomorrow, the key to Paradise is to die to your carnal self and anything besides Him, while observing the boundaries of the Divine Laws. Proximity to Allah Almighty is the Paradise of the true believers and distance from Him is their Hell. They seek no other Paradise and fear no other Hell.”

20 Tips to be a Successful Student

As many students are having difficulties in their ways to success, I’d like to share with you all 20 tips tobe a successful student. I hope you all will like it andplease do not thank me for doing it. Just inform me if it is working well for you. 20 Tips to be a successful student 1. We must believe that we are originally successful as stated by Allah S.W.T in the Qura’n in Surah At-Tin : 95:4 Surely We created manof the best stature. This means Allah has created us with everlasting success and as caliphs on earth we should know howto find and bring out the success ourselves. 2. Our brain is divided into 2 parts: left hemisphere andright hemisphere. The right hemisphere functions to think logically, critically, think about science and anything that’s considered in this area. The left hemisphere functions to think creatively, literary andelse that’s called creative. Normally, many students use the right hemisphere to learn but the fact is, learning is excellent and you’ll learn at the maximumstage when you use both sides of your brain. Here we can conclude than we should learn with both sides of our brain to get themaximum understanding when we’re learning. 3. Don’t ever believe that you’re an ordinary person with nothing to be proud of. Here, I don’t ask you to be proud of yourself or what, the thing is, you must believe and feel confident that you’re created with success. You must believe that you’re truly a successful person. But you must find the success first before believing it that way. 4. Remember these facts: We remember 10% of what we read 20% of what we read and listen (listen to teacher) 50% of what we read, listen and see (pay attention to teacher) 70% of what we read, listen,see and say (say everything we have learnt loudly) 90% of what we practice daily (do exercise after study daily, every time you’ve finished studying) 5. Learn actively with your fingers pointing at what you’re learning to increase your attention. Draw a mind map every time after you’ve finished studying. 6. Learn 2 ½ -3 hours a day for high school students and 4-5 hours a day for those in university. 7. Learn in a conducive surrounding: a) Green /yellow/ both surrounding b) Sufficient light c) A bit hotter (no air conditioned room please) d) Lower noise e) IMPORTANT: Don’t ever try to learn with music. It might cause your brain to be confused. You aren’t learning actually but reading! As said by many scholars, there’ll no barakah to those who learnthis way. NO BARAKAH FROM ALLAH! SO, STOP LISTENING TO MUSIC WHENYOU’RE LEARNING! (Music isHaram) f) Paste motivation posters like Qura’n phrases (most recommended) and your own motivation like: I’m clever! I can do it! Of courseI can! Allah’s with me! g) Learn towards kiblah. If you’re capable to do this (most recommended) change you table’s position towards kiblah. And if can, please remove your table’s position to be near to the window as brain need oxygen and sugar (this will be explained later) to operate excellently. h) Wear some perfumes (girls, please listen. Do not wear it outside or when there’s ajnabi around (non muhrim men around) it might cause a BIG sin. Wear it a bit when you’re studying). i) Smile when you’re studying. 8. Don’t ever try to leave your class (when you’re in school or etc) without any good reason. This could cause the teachers to hate you and stop praying for your success or in the otherhand: NO BARAKAH FROM ALLAH! If you cannot avoid from leaving your lesson, you should ask for apologyand notes from your teachers. 9) Learn with output learning: a) Read first b) Try to remember back c) Draw a mind map d) Check your mind map and compare it to the real note. e) Speak out loudly what you’ve learnt 9. You should know how tomotivate yourself when you fail to get what you’re targeting to own. 10. Write the positive deeds you’ve done in your diary daily. This could help to motivate you. 11. Be friend with positive people. 12. Try to help others to be the best. If you do it this way, Allah will help you to be best too. Insha Allah. 13. Pray to Allah every second…as possible as you can. 14. Always be early in everything. For example, sit in front in your class. Prepare for your exam earlier. Read any related thing or the subject you’ll learn before being taught by the teachers. 15. Always recite Surah Al Insyirah ‘Alam nasyrah’ before you learn, sit for exam. Recite Yaasin or Qura’n 2 ains daily. 16. Learn in short session: Every 20 minutes, stop for 2-3 minutes to drink water and etc. You won’t feel bored this way. 17. Revise as soon as possible before 24 hours. For instance, if you read Geography that morning, atnight you should revise it back. 18. You should know how to strengthen your memory. a) Do not eat fish head, internal organs like heart ofanimal (If you want to eat those food, please recite Bismillahillazi layadurru maa’s mihi shaiun fil ardi wala fissama’I wahuassami ul allim ( ANYONE WHO KNOWS ARABIC, PLEASE HELP ME TO WRITE IT IN ARABIC). Please do not eat any food that’s being polluted….has ant in it (there’s a sahih hadith about it). b) Drink one hour before/after eating as doneby Rasulallah S.A.W. Learn 2 hours after eating to avoid from being sleepy. Eat before iftar if possible. c) Do not eat to much as Umar Al Khattab said it isn’tgood for health and your mind. You’ll feel sleepy if you do it. d) Do not see your private side frequently. It can causeyou to be an absent minded and you might have sight problem. e) Do not look at bubbles. Do not read dead people names at the graveyard. Scholars believe bubbles will cause your memory to burst like bubbles too and dead people names will cause your brain to be dead. f) Eat a lot of nuts, peas and beans. Eat raisins, honey and dates too. g) Wear hair oil. h) Exercise weekly to be fit all the time. 19. Make a flexible timetable. You can have rest, study, and play in it. Include all good points like learning, your hobby and etc. But remember do not do something like learning for a long time, it will causeyou to be bored. And do not play for too long time, you’ feel tired and you cannot study after that. 20. Make salah Tahajjud and Hajat daily. Pray for every muslim especially your friends, parents and teacher. Above all Perform Your Salaah Daily.... An Aleem said (on Islam Channel): A person can notlearn by two things 1) Arguing with a Fool 2) Arguing with your Teacher (Always respect your teacher as u respect urParents.. It did work.. When I was in College I was studing 18 units + As Use of Maths throughout 2 years.. N I endup getting 12 Distiction (A) and 6 Merits and B for my AS Use of Maths... I m not trying to say i m clever. I would request all brothers n sisters to perform salaah.. If u stuck some where whiledoing some revison.. Perform 2 Rakah Nafil.. andask Allah SAW to give u Tufiq to learn.. Show u anything is hidden.. Make things ease for u.. Teach you what you do not know.. Courtesy : BrotHer Uzeir

Ever & anon did thou prove a highway robber here. Verily it is thy carnal appetite that robs thee. If thou be afraid of God as thou art a lion. Thou shalt cherish a hospitality of a king in Hereafter.

Beware Of Women and World

Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "The world is sweet and green (alluring); and verily, Allah is making you to succeed each other, generations after generations in it in order to see how you act. So beware of this world and beware of women". [Muslim]. Commentary: The stress that it lays on guarding against the evil of women shows how grave a mischief woman is for man. The warning it contains is intended to alert men against the cunning and deceit of women and induces them to take preventive measures prescribed by the Shari`ah inthis behalf. Those who disregard the injunctions of Shari`ah in this respect generally become a victim of the seduction, wiles and guiles of women. May Allah save us from their amorous ways.

See God is Everything:

One who sees the ultimate source of his problems increated being is like a dog whom a man hits with a brick and then the dod goes and bite the brick, not knowing that the brick has no agency on its own. Such a person and this dog is equal. One who sees the ultimate source of the favours he enjoys in created beings is like a horse who, when its trainer approaches shakes its tail in happiness. Butwhen its owner approaches, it pays him not attention. If you are intelligent, see God as the ultimate source of things, and do not see this in anything else. The lost one is not one who loses his way in the desert. The lost one is the one who is unable to findthe path to guidance. You seek honour from people, but you do not seek it from God. But one who seeks honour from people has lost his way. And one who has lost his way will only be taken farther from his desired destination the longer he travels that road. This is truly the lost one. If you say, "There is no god but Allāh", Allāh will demand of you that you live up to this and recognise its true meaning. That means that you do not attribute cause of things to anyone but God. Shaykh Ibn 'Atā'illāh al-Skandarī (d.1309) in Tāj al-'Arūs translated by Dr. Sherman Jackson in Sufismfor Non-Sufis
