KNOWLEDGE CORNER

Quranic Ayat/Verse

And do not follow a thing about which you have no knowledge. Surely, the ear, the eye and the heart - each one of them shall be interrogated about.

(Surah Al-Isra, ayah 36)

Did you hear about..? How many times has a conversation or something youve read begun like this? Rumors and hearsay can poison the ears and eyes but its even worse if you start believing and following something youve heard without studying it. The Quran encourages education, studying what God has commanded, understanding, and implementing it. Following trends is easier now than ever, especially in the advent of social media. Dont allow yourself to be fooled. The most shared and liked posts wont lead you to salvation, but knowledge of the self and of life will.

Hadith

Anas (RA) said that the Prophet () said: "Allah will say: 'Remove from the Fire whoever remembered Me one day, or feared Me while in a state of sinning."

(Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2594, Book 39, Hadith 22)

This beautiful Hadith is about so many things. Hope, mercy and the remembrance of Allah. The fire is a punishment for those who have sinned and not repented, which may not be a vast majority of people. This Hadith gives hope to all. Allah (swt) says the fire will be removed from those who remembered Him for even one day. A single day's remembrance is enough to save you from the Hellfire. Then he says also from those who feared Him while in a state of sinning. Everyone makes mistakes but if your conscience kicks in and reminds you that you are sinning, you feel bad and inside you fear Allah and seek His forgiveness. Allah's Mercy is for you even if you have sinned. There is absolutely no reason to be in despair or feel helpless. Engage in dhikr regularly, seek Allah's forgiveness and have hope.
