 Salaam everyone,
  The Messenger of Allah, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said:--" HE IS SUCCESSFUL WHO HAS ACCEPTED ISLAM, WHO HAS BEEN PROVIDED WITH SUFFICIENT FOR HIS WANTS AND BEEN MADE CONTENTED BY ALLAH WITH WHAT HE HAS GIVEN HIM". [Muslim]

 These days when people say so and so is very successful, what they mean is he or she is making a lot of money. By this noble Hadith, we understand who qualifies to be called successful. It is not having car x, house in y and a job z but:-ISLAM, FULFILLED NEEDS AND A THANKFUL HEART. Note this well.

  Many Regards.

Discussions / Do Not Forget To Recite...

 Assalam alaikum,

  Mu'az, may Allah be pleased with him, one of the companions of the Messenger of Allah, Prophet Muhammad, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless and grant him peace, took hold of my hand and said:-- "O Mu'az! By Allah I love you, so I advise you to never forget to recite after every prayer:

   ALLAHUMMA A'INNI ALAA ZIKRIKA, WA SHUKRIKA, WA HUSNI IBADATIKA
 
   ( O Allah, help me remember You, to be grateful to You, and to worship You in an excellent manner)". [Abu Dawud]

  This noble Hadith stresses the fact that we should seek the help of Allah, Exalted is He, for His remembrance, thanksgiving and worship, because one cannot do anything without His help and support. It also shows the superiority of Mu'az, may Allah be pleased with him, and the Prophet's love for him.
