O Allah, reform hearts, forgive sins, cover faults, and accept the repentance of those who repent. O Allah, grant us abundant gifts, forgive sins, and grant us a life of contentment. O Allah, we seek refuge in You from the stumbling block that cannot be excused, and we seek refuge in You from the slip that cannot be forgiven, and we seek refuge in You from the brokenness that cannot be mended.🌹
Good morning ❤️

SELFLESSNESS OF THE ANSĀR
ALLĀH said,
وَيُوْثِرُونَ عَلَى أَنفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ
And give them preference over themselves even though they were in need of that.
meaning, they preferred giving to the needy rather than attending to their own needs, and began by giving the people before their own selves, even though they too were in need.
An authentic Hadith stated that the Messenger of ALLĀH said, "The best charity is that given when one is in need and struggling."
This exalted rank is better than the rank of those whom ALLĀH described in HIS statements,
وَيُطْعِمُونَ الطَّعَامَ عَلَى حُبِّهِ
And they give food, inspite of their love for it. (76:8),
and,
وَءَاتَى الْمَالَ عَلَى حُبِّهِ
And gives his wealth, in spite of love for it. (2:177)
The latter give charity even though they love the wealth they give, not that they really need it, nor that it is necessary for them to keep it. The former prefer others to themselves even though they are in need and have a necessity for what they spend in charity. Abu Bakr As-Siddiq gave away all his wealth in charity and ALLĀH'S Messenger asked him,
What did you keep for your family, and he said,
"I kept for them ALLĀH and HIS Messenger."
Ikrimah (bin Abi Jahl) and two other wounded fighters were offered water when they were injured during the battle of Al-Yarmuk, and each one of them said that the sip of water should be given to another of the three wounded men. They did so even though they were badly injured and craving water. When the water reached the third man, he and the other two died and none of them drank any of the water! May ALLĀH be pleased with them and make them pleased with HIM.
Al-Bukhari recorded that Abu Hurayrah said, "A man came to the Prophet and said, 'O ALLAH's Messenger! Poverty has stuck me.'
The Prophet sent a messenger to his wives (to bring something for that man to eat) but they said that they had nothing. Then ALLĀH'S Messenger said,
"Who will invite this person or entertain him as a guest tonight; may ALLĀH grant HIS mercy to him who does so."
An Ansari man said, 'I, O ALLĀH's Messenger!'
So he took him to his wife and said to her, 'Entertain the guest of ALLĀH's Messenger generously.'
She said, 'By ALLĀH! We have nothing except the meal for my children.'
He said, 'Let your children sleep if they ask for supper. Then turn off the lamp and we go to bed tonight while hungry.'
She did what he asked her to do.
In the morning the Ansari went to ALLĀH's Messenger who said,
"ALLĀH wondered (favorably) or laughed at the action of so-and-so and his wife."
Then ALLĀH revealed,
وَيُوْثِرُونَ عَلَى أَنفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ
And they give them preference over themselves even though they were in need of that. "
Al-Bukhari recorded this Hadith in another part of his Sahih.
Muslim, At-Tirmidhi, An-Nasa'i collected this Hadith.

It hurt me to say one of the righteous
"A woman's naked clothing is evidence of God's anger towards her, because when God was angry with Adam and Eve, He stripped them of their clothing and showed them their private parts."
A girl says:
When I see a girl who has made herself up and gone too far in nudity, I look at her parents and remember the Almighty's saying:
(Stop them, for they will be questioned) So I become more modest and chaste so that my father will not be questioned!!
Most of what God has forbidden in this world, He has permitted in Paradise
Like alcohol... except (nudity), for God has forbidden it in both worlds. In fact, one of the blessings is to increase one's concealment
(You will not be hungry therein, nor will you be naked)
One of the most beautiful things I have read about modesty.

Ibn al-Qayyim, may God have mercy on him, said:
When the soul is satiated, it moves, wanders, and roams the doors of desires. When it is hungry, it calms down, humbles itself, and is submissive.
[Badai’ al-Fawa’id (821/2)].
