...Imam Tirmidhi (R.A.) shows his excellent contribution to Islam since 220 AH. He spent his life into research in science of Ahadith and shows his passion in collecting maximum knowledge from other great personalities of his time such as Imam Bukhari (R.A.), Imam Muslim(R.A.) and Imam Abu Dawood (R.A.). He has written lots of works such as Al-Jami’ al-Mukhtasar min as-Sunan ‘an Rasulillah, Tawarikh, al-‘Ilal al-Kabir, Shama’il, Asma’ as-Sahabah, Al-Asma’ wal Kuna, Al-Athar al-Mawqufah. and he was the compiler of as-Sunan at-Tirmidhi which is one of his most famous book and was completed on 10 Zulhijjah 270 AH . As-Sunan at-Tirmidhi has been categorized as fourth among the sixth most authentic books of hadith (Kutub as sittah) . Despite that, as-Sunan at-Tirmidhi contains a lot of benefits and the book was widely circulated through the Muslim world. He had divided his sunan into 46 chapter which contains 3956 hadith. His main objective to compile Al-Jami’ was to arrange the hadith of prophet s.a.w systematically, to discuss the legal opinions of early Imams and to discuss the quality of the hadith whether it can be argued or not and to deliberate about the weakness and deficiency in certain hadith. His Al-Jami’ also considered as a reference for various schools of thoughts. During Imam Tirmidhi’s life, he has traveled through out the Islamic World. According to Hafiz Mizzi, he travelled to various cities and heard from the traditionist of Khurasan...

...The Tongue Expresses what is in the Heart: If a person is good, it reflects in their saying. Allah has made it very easy for the tongue to move, and it is not difficult to realize that a person’s tongue moves much more as if compared to the limbs. So if a person is not careful about what he says, even a single saying of his can invalidate his actions. It is for this reason that the whole body warns the tongue saying, “Fear Allah concerning us, for we are (dependant) upon you. If you are upright then we will be upright and if you are corrupt then we will be corrupt.” - Sunan at-Tirmidhi (1912), Mishkaat (4838) and Riyaadh as-Saleheen (2/1521) Return their bad behavior with good. Nothing extinguishes fire like water! Successful people don't just ignore malice - they take every opportunity to convert their foes into friends. The best way to do that - and the most difficult - is by doing good to such people as soon as the chance comes by. If your relative is sick, visit him at the hospital with some flowers and wish him a quick recovery. Chances are your strained relationship with him will get better too, as a result. Never stoop to their level ! Don't fight fire with fire. If you start returning tit for tat, you are no better than they. Two negatives don't make a positive. Don't resort to revenge, no matter how tempted you might be. Some gossip-mongers might entice you to a cat-fight by saying, "Did you hear what [jealous person] said about you?". Ignore these attempts...

A.) narrated that Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: “Should I not tell you of one treasure of the unlimited treasures of Paradise?” I replied spontaneously, “Oh RasulAllah (Peace be upon him) that would be an honour indeed.” Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: “That rare treasure is ‘La Hawla Wa La Quwwata Illa Billah’.” (Ibn Majah) 3. A Date Palm Planted In Paradise For The One Who Recites This Hazrat Jaa'bir (R. A.) narrated that Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: “For the person who recites ‘Sub-Han'allah Hil Azeem Wa Bi-Ham'dihi’ a date palm will be planted for him in Paradise.” (Tirmidhi) 4. Forgiveness For Sins Even If They Are Like The Foam Of The Sea Narrated by Abu Huraira, Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said: “Whoever says ‘Subhan Allaahi Wa Bihamdihi’ one hundred times a day, will be forgiven all his sins even if they were as much as the foam of the sea.” (Bukhari, Book #75, Hadith #414) 5.

...Drugs are substances that cause chemical reactions in the body. Medical drugs relieve disease and illness, and are extensively tested before being used. Recreational drugs, such as alcohol and tobacco, are taken by people because they like the effects they have on their bodies, but they are addictive. Other change-causing substances, both legal and illegal, include solvents, painkillers, sedatives and stimulants. Opiates (such as morphine) are useful for pain-relief in terminally ill patients, but they can be misused as illegal recreational drugs that are very addictive Cannabis Cannabis is an illegal drug that can be smoked, producing feelings of well-being. But like tobacco it can cause lung cancer and bronchitis. Unlike tobacco, it can cause permanent damage to the mental health of its users. Research has shown that cannabis has some useful painkilling properties, but it is illegal to prescribe it for this use. Caffeine Stimulants include caffeine - found in cola drinks and coffee, cannabis and amphetamines. They increase the transmission of signals from one nerve cell to the next. This increases alertness, heart rate and breathing rate. However, in the longer term, they can produce 'highs' and then extreme 'lows' or even depression. They can be addictive because the body needs a constant top-up to maintain the effect Heroine Painkillers or analgesics include paracetamol, aspirin, heroin and morphine. They block nerve impulses from the painful part of the body, or block...

We praise Him, we seek His help and we ask for His forgiveness. We repent to Him and seek refuge in Allah from the evil of our own selves and from our evil deeds. Whosoever has been guided by Allah, none can misguide that person and whomsoever Allah has misguided, there is no one that can guide that person to the Straight Path. I bear witness and testify that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, with no partners or associates, and I bear witness that Muhammad (sulAllahu alaihi wa salaam) is the slave and messenger of Allah. Allah, the All Mighty and All Wise, has informed mankind through His Messenger (sulAllahu alaihi wa salaam) about all aspects and matters related to the purpose of life. This purpose is clearly defined in the Qur’an as Allah, the Exalted, says: “And I created not the jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone).” (Qur’an 51:56) Through this ayah human beings can clearly understand their position and relationship to this life, and the duties which must be fulfilled are specified in the...

He had already believed in a Supreme God and he would spend most of his time reflecting on that. Little is known of his life before his conversion to Islam. Abu Dharr is said to have been a serious young man, an ascetic and a monotheist even before he converted.

People has become more creative than ever when it comes to create jobs and opportunities in order to increase their level of livings and survive in this world.

Is it legal to collect zakat from earned income? What is the opinions from scholars regarding this issue? And how we calculate it? It is really important to reach a strong ruling on this issue because earned income has become a major category of wealth in our time, including wages and salaries, professional income, gains from invested capital and so on.

According to Investopedia.com, the definition of earned income is “active participation in a trade or business, including wages, salary, tips, commissions and bonuses”. By active participation means the income has been earned by the workers, in other words, the job has been done...
