An essential thing that a large portion of the Muslim community disregards or does not realize in a time of their lives is developing the habit of sending Durood on Allah's last Prophet (SAW).
When you send endowments on the Prophet Muhammad (SAW), it is of much noteworthiness because Allah has declared in his Holy book that doing all things considered Himself close by the grand orderlies and after that requested the devotees to do in like manner.

I haven't written in a long while but that will change soon. I came across these pointers which I had to share. The examples given below are a few of many ways which we could secure a better here-after. Please read, practice and share with others.
Read MoreWe all need to answer the call of nature. Its one of the basic acts of life. And until we In Sha Allah get to Jannah where we wont need to answer this call, we have to spend a fair amount of time in this dunya in or around one. There are a few etiquettes we as muslims must always try to observe.

And when mankind are gathered (on the Day of Judgement), they (false deities) will become enemies for them and will deny their worshipping." - Q46:5-6
Read MoreThe Prophet (SAW) said: "Friday has five characteristics: on thus day Allah created Adam, on it He sent down Adam to earth, on it Allah caused Adam to die, on it there is a time when a person does not ask Allah for anything but He gives it to him, so long as he does not ask for anything haram and on it will the Hour begin.

Arrogance is simply glorifying one's self while looking down on others. This could be as a result of one feeling superior to others based on wealth, knowledge, faith or background. Arrogance leads to the need to be praised by others.

Read MoreMuslims around the world do their utmost best to follow the Sunnah of the Prophet (SAW). He is the best example to follow. Islam is strictly against violence in any form, it is a religion that frowns on harming and oppressing people. As a matter of fact, an oppressor is cursed by Allah. A Muslim is a model citizen that is always in a constant quest to better himself. The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was the embodiment of the above hadith. He did not seek revenge, did not return evil with evil but forgave and pardoned those who did the most horrific things to him. I would be giving a few examples.
