Assalamu Alaikum,

Ramadan is coming up in a month or so-give or take,insha'ALLAH!! Sisters, for those who have to make up their fasts from last Ramadan, get those done for ALLAH,insha'ALLAH. We are preparing for another full month of Ramadan. Get together a plan,insha'ALLAH for you, yourselves, and your familiies.

Its an important time of the year for Muslims. This is our holy month. Insha'ALLAH, I will prepare for this special month by getting some good sweet treats for when I break my fast.




This is a very moving and powerful video to remind us about Ramadan, and how our lives should be everyday as Muslims.

As Muslims, our lives should not be devoted to ALLAH only during Ramadan, but everyday.

Wa Alaikum Salaam!

Daleel: Earrings are NOT adornments and ARE HALAL

Assalamu Alaikum sisters,


Many sisters will try to tell you that you cannot wear earrings or your jewelry outside of the home. When someone says something they must back it up with the Qur'an or the Sunnah, and if they cannot then they are lying on ALLAH.

Here is the daleel that we can wear earrings outside of the home:


Ibn 'Abbas said, Allah's Apostle went out and offered the Id prayer and then delivered the sermon. "Then the Prophet went to the women and instructed them and gave them religious advice and ordered them to give alms and I saw them reaching out (their hands to) their ears and necks (to take off the earrings and necklaces, etc.) and throwing (it) towards Bilal. Then the Prophet returned with Bilal to his house . - Bukhari

Also when Allah says in the Quran for women to not show off their adornment this does not apply to jewelry or the face and this is the view of the majority of the companions and none understood islam better than they:

Ibn Abbas (ra) is one of the most learned men of the Sahaba (Companions). Prophet Muhammad (s) even prayed for him saying

"O Allah, make him acquire a deep understanding of the religion of Islam and instruct him in the meaning and interpretation of things." - Muslim

Ibn Abbas with reference to Surah An-Nur:

"And Say to the believing women to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts) and not to show off their adornment except only that which is apparent, and to draw their veils all over Juyubihinna" (Surah An-Nur, Verses 30 and 31)

defined the phrase, “except only that which is apparent” as referring to the "The hand, the ring, and the face."

Also Abdullah Ibn Omar Ibn Al-Khattab (ra) said that this verse refers to the exception of “the face and the two hands”.

Anas Ibn Malik (ra) also said that the exception refers to “the hand and the ring”.

The hand face and ring is also the view of Ali and Aisha the wife of the Prophet (sa).

Ibn Hazm said: “all of this (statements) are in the highest of accuracy.

Wa Alaikum Salaam

Walaa and Baraa: Love and Hate for the sake of ALLAH

Assalamu Alaikum,


Love is an aspect of Islam

Hate is an aspect of Islam. We must hate for the sake of ALLAH. What do I mean? You must hate what ALLAHSWT has forbid.

La Ilaha Illallah negates the fact that you believe there is no God,but ALLAH and only ALLAHSWT can give you good and evil.

And [know that] if God should touch thee with misfortune, there is none who could remove it save Him; and if He intends good for thee, there is none who could turn away His bounty: He causes it to alight upon whomsoever He wills of His servants. And He alone is truly forgiving, truly a dispenser of grace (10:107)

ISLAM IS THE ONLY WAY OF LIFE and there WILL NOT be ANY CHRISTIANS, JEWS, HINDUS, ATHIESTS in Heaven according to the interpretation of the meaning:

"Whoever seeks after a Religion other than Islaam, never will it be accepted from him, and in the Hereafer he will be one of the loosers." [Soorah Aal-'Imraan 3:85

We must not use a FATWA that goes against ALLAH's commands. For example: Many women try looking for a fatwa that allows them to pluck or shave their eyebrows. We must not take our husbands, kid, jobs, and wealth as being our god!

"And of mankind there are those who take others besidesAllaah as rivals to Allaah. They love them as they should love Allaah." [Soorah al-Baqarah 2:165

Allah tells us in the Qur'an that we should not be friends with the disbelievers:

“O you who believe! Do not take the Jews and Christians for friends. They are Awliyaa(friends) to each other. And the one among you that turns to them is one of them. Indeed, Allah guides not an unjust people.” (5:51)

AllahSWT continues to tell us that WE MUST HATE the kuffar for his sake:

“You will not find any people that believe in Allah and the Last Day loving those who oppose Allah and his Messenger (s.a.w.), even though they were their fathers, sons, brothers, or relatives….” (58:22)

Finally, its important that we love our fellow sisters and brothers in Islam:

“The Believers, men and women, are protectors, one of another,” (9:71


When one takes the shahada, La Illaha IllALLAH, then one negates that there is another god, and we affirm that there is NO GOD, BUT ALLAH and that we believe that MuhammadSAW is the last Prophet of God.

Become Strong Sisters and Form a Sisterhood

Assalamu Alaikum sisters,

Its very important that we become stronger in iman, or our faith in ALLAH. We must learn true Tawheed, or the belief in the oneness of ALLAH and about the Sunnah. As Muslimas, we must build ourselves up and build up the sisters we have around us. There is a huge percentage of Muslims that have fallen from the Qur'an and Sunnah, and its about time we change that.

Grab a hold of your other sisters, and become strong in this deen of ALLAH!

Allah says in the interpretation of the meaning:

”The men and women from among the believers are friends of each other. They call the people towards goodness and piety and abstain from evil and transgression. They uphold the prayer, pay the poor-rate (zakaat) and obey Allah and His Prophet (s.a.w.s.). Indeed, these are the ones for whom Allah shall soon manifest His mercy and grace. Verily Allah is all-powerful, and the most wise.”
(Ale Imran : 71)

Subhan'ALLAH sisters! Subhan'ALLAH! We should form our sister hoods in every neighborhood and mesjid. We must guide our daughters, mothers, aunts, cousins, and etc into this sisterhood of AL-Islam.

Do not lose your sister to this dunya. Pull her up with you! Help her as you help yourself! Always keep you and your sister in the remembrance of ALLAH!

Insha'ALLAH, I want every sister to know that this dunya, or this world is nothing compared to the hereafter. WE must prepare for our last day, last hour, and last breath. Subhan'ALLAH, allow yourself to see your sisters!!

Build a FIRM relationship to your sisters, and hold onto them!

Wa alaikum salaam!

Niqaabis

Assalamu Alaikum,

The summer time is here and we all want to put together some outfits! Insha'ALLAH, I will show you some ideas when you go back to your own personal closets.

These outfits are just a start to where you could decide when picking out your clothing

I love abayas, so abayas are something I look to when searching for that"look".

I love colors and designs, so plain jane items aren't exactly my thing.
