Live In Deen

Every year, as Ramadan arrives, many of us feel determined to change for the better and become better Muslims. Yet as the blessed month leaves us on Eid, we may find that the good habits and practices that we established during Ramadan were left behind as well. Well, this year can be different. I have found (at least for myself) that the key to making lasting changes is having small, sustainable goals rather than grand, unreachable ones. In fact, this is even a concept in our religion that Allah loves those deeds that are done consistently , even if they are small. Here are 10 simple spiritual practices that we can all start now and easily continue after Ramadan has passed: 1- Pray 5 Times a Day Islamic Prayer - The Spiritual Ritual (Special Folder) I know this one sounds really basic, but for a lot of people, praying on time 5 times a day is a struggle . However, this is a pillar of Islam and something that we should all be doing; so even if it’s a challenge, we should...

We’re going to talk about a few Sunnahs to do in Eid. There’s going to be one sunnah that starts from the night before ‘Eid and then a few more that happen on the morning of ‘Eid. Takbir In Islam, the new day basically starts at Maghrib. So as soon as we know that the next day is going to be Eid, we start saying the Takbir of ‘eid-ul-fitr. This is different than the takbir of ‘Eid-ul-Adha so don’t get confused. I’m only going to give you information Eid-ul-Fitr in this video. How is takbir of ‘Eid-ul-Fitr done? Basically, you’re going to say: Allahu Akbar , Allahu Akbar, La Ilaha Illa Allah, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar wa lillahi Alhamd . (Allah is the most great, none has the right to be worshiped but Allah. Allah is the most great, and to Allah belongs all praise.) Once you’ve memorized this takbir, you should be saying it continuously. So starting from Maghrib until the next morning, when the Imam comes out for the ‘Eid prayers , you should be saying it all the time, when you’re...

Ramadan is the perfect time to abandon bad habits, acquire good ones, ditch old routines, and make new starts. The holy month motivates you to make plans to transform into a better version of yourself. It works for the first few days. Then, although your motivation wanes, your willpower keeps you going since your daily schedule is altered and your resolutions have become part of the Ramadan routine. Then `Eid comes, and many of us find that once the festivities are over our self-discipline has evaporated and we are back in the old rut. Procrastination, laziness and bad time management make our Ramadan resolutions seem too hard to sustain, and we struggle until we eventually give up. Read Also: 3 Ways to End Ramadan Strong It’s a common scenario, but failure is not inevitable. Plenty of literature is available on techniques we can use to develop new habits or get rid of old ones. Experts advise us to ‘rewire our brains’, but how is that done? “Rewiring the brain is a lot tricki...

Chaque année, à l’approche du Ramadan , beaucoup d’entre nous se sentent déterminés à changer pour le mieux et à devenir de meilleurs musulmans . Pourtant, alors que le mois béni nous quitte le jour de l’Aïd, il nous arrive de constater que les bonnes habitudes et pratiques déjà établies pendant le Ramadan sont également sur le point de nous abandonner. Eh bien, cette année peut être différente. J’ai trouvé (au moins pour moi-même) que la clé pour apporter des changements durables est d’avoir de petits objectifs durables plutôt que de grands objectifs inaccessibles. En fait, c’est même un concept dans notre religion qu’ Allah aime les actions qui sont faites à base régulière, même si elles sont minimes. Voici 10 pratiques spirituelles simples. Nous pouvons tous commencer maintenant à les pratiquer. Il est également possible de continuer à les accomplir sans peine après la fin du Ramadan: 1- Priez 5 Fois Par Jour L'Importance de la Prière dans L'Islam Je sais que...

Me gustaría decir algunas palabras de por qué considero que un hombre llamado Muhammad, que vivió en el siglo séptimo en Arabia, es uno de los profetas de Dios. Muhammad habló, enseñó y se comportó como los profetas de Dios anteriores. Si aceptaba a estos, le tenía que aceptar a él también. Estas son mis razones personales, no necesariamente las que otras personas podrían dar.  Los profetas de Dios anteriores al Islam Antes era cristiano y estudié los profetas en la Torá, los profetas judíos. También estudié las enseñanzas de Jesús en la Biblia hasta que lo conocía todo bastante bien. Y cuando llegué al Islam y lo estudié me di cuenta de que lo que el Profeta Muhammad enseñó es lo mismo que enseñaron todos los profetas.  ¿En qué están de acuerdo la Biblia y el Corán? Y por supuesto are igual a lo que es Jesús enseñó en los evangelios sobre la salvación, el pecado, el  perdón, la relación con Dios, la importancia de la intención, de la “nia” como se dic...

Ramadan inspires us to be better human beings in various ways. Charity, kindness and self-restraint are focused on during Ramadan and it is very important to take it forward through your Eid resolutions. After all, it is not about one month, but who we become after it that counts. Here are nine ideas to inspire your post-Ramadan resolutions. What Happens Once Ramadan Ends? 1. Charity Charity begins at home as they say and should be year-round, not just for one month. It is not only about giving when you have extra. It is about understanding our responsibility to other human lives in the world. Giving, in whatever small amount, is a great way to help a less fortunate person. Ramadan teaches you to be kind and charitable, not just for a month, but for as long as you live. 2. Self-Restraint Ramadan, as a month of fasting and restraint, teaches us the importance of self-restraint. Take a resolution to practice this control in all aspects of life. Put needs over wa...

How can we garner for ourselves some exclusivity with God during the last days of Ramadan, to focus on worship? Unplug the ‘Cord’: Restrict Social Media Access Tapping, clicking, and typing away on our phones, notebooks, tablet PCs and desktop computers has become second nature for most of us. Many Muslims are online on social media websites and apps almost 24/7 nowadays, either by choice or due to work. Thanks to the short nights of Ramadan, most of which are spent awake due to prayer and meals, connectivity is even more “real time”. Try to “switch off”. Tell yourself that these last nights of Ramadan come just once a year, whereas our distractive online conversations, comments, status updates and information sharing go on for the rest of it. Snap yourself away from your latest online friends’ updates, photos, and tweets. Even avoid articles, over-sensationalized breaking news, and random television viewing. Also try not to get attracted by commercial advertisements of sales, ...

Zakat al-Fitr es una forma de caridad que se da a los pobres al final del ayuno del mes de Ramadán . Fue decretado en el segundo año después de la Hiyrah del Profeta Muhammad (la paz sea con él) a Medina. Ese fue el mismo año en el que se decretó el ayuno del mes de Ramadán. El Mensajero de Allah ordenó dar el Zakat-ul-fitr a quien ayunara (es decir, quien ayunó durante el mes de Ramadán) para purificarlo de cualquier acto o palabra indecente y con el propósito de proporcionar alimentos a los necesitados. Se acepta como Zakat cuando la persona que lo paga antes de la oración del Eid y es Sadaqah (es decir, caridad voluntaria) para la persona que lo paga después de la oración del Eid”. Relatado por Abu Dawud e Ibn Majah y Al-Hakim lo calificó como Sahih”. Abu Dawud ¿Quien paga el Zakat Al-Fitr? Un musulmán debe pagar el Zakat al-Fitr por sí mismo y sus dependientes. El Profeta, la paz y las bendiciones sean con él, ordenó el pago de un Sa’ de dátiles o un Sa’ de cebada como Zak...

Ramadan is a month of challenge and striving.  We Muslims push ourselves to perform good deeds and acts of worship while displaying self control in the face of hunger, thirst, and fatigue. Twenty-four hours hardly seems enough time to accomplish enough each day, particularly for mothers whose duties never end . From early morning until late at night, mothers tend to be “on call,” perpetually available for every family member’s wants and needs.  Particularly when their children are infants and toddlers, many women feel frustrated with their inability to dedicate themselves to extra prayer and remembrance of Allah SWT. Dua for Laylat ul Qadr Dishes, laundry, diapers, cooking, and errands seem never-ending and overwhelming.  As much as we would like to put those duties on hold for a month, the fact is that a household must continue to function, even during the holiest month.  So what can overextended mothers do to reap the benefits of Ramadan, despite t...
