Muslims performing Hajj at Mount Arafat


πŸ‘‰πŸ»The Day of Arafah is NOT a day for cleaning/organizing the home.
πŸ‘‰πŸ»Nor is it a day for shopping or going out for fun
πŸ‘‰πŸ»Nor is it a day for resting, wasting time or sleeping
πŸ‘‰πŸ»The Day of Arafah is no ordinary day
πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ
But

πŸ‘‰πŸ»It is a Day in which Allah has Honored
πŸ‘‰πŸ»It is a Day in which Allah has Glorified
πŸ‘‰πŸ»It is a Day in which Allah boasts about the people of Arafah to the Angels
πŸ‘‰πŸ»It is a Day in which Allah saves people from the Hell-Fire
πŸ‘‰πŸ»It is a Day of good deeds and striving in worship
πŸ‘‰πŸ»It is a Day Of forgiveness
πŸ‘‰πŸ»It is a Day of mercy and great bounty
πŸ‘‰πŸ»It is a Day of tears and supplication (du’as)
πŸ‘‰πŸ»It is a Day of fasting where sins (minor) are forgiven for the past year and next

πŸ“£The Day of Arafah is a Great Day in the Sight of Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him). It is the best day of the entire year. The piety in our hearts should drive us to take advantage of every second of this day. Whoever honors the Symbols of Allah has honored His Deen.

πŸ“£May Allah accept this day from us.

Muslim wives are supporters, and not slaves, and should be treated with utmost dignity. In the religion of Islam, the roles and rights of Muslim wives are copiously written and spoken about.
