Ramadan Kareem brothers and sisters 🙏🏽 This thread has immensely inspired me on my steadfastness with my love for Allah and the noble prophet (s.a.w). May Allah reward everyone of you in many folds. I have a short story to tell about myself and I would appreciate your input and opinions. I did my Walimot Quran at a very young age and I so much love Islam to the point where myself and some other kids would start mimicking Islam lectures into a small tape recorder. Not long after I finished secondary school, I suddenly found myself drinking and smoking. Looking back now, I honestly cannot pin point an exact reason why I was doing what I was drinking and smoking back then. Life has been so uneasy with jobs, education and all. I experienced a lot of regress but Alhamdulilah. I read a post by @movado19 about Auric field being damaged by alcohol and creating a gap for attacks. During the times I was drinking, I have been intoxicated on different occasions but the last one that happened left a bitter mark in my life. I woke up on my bed after a night of heavy drinking with a very sharp pain in my lower left back and a very weird general body fatigue. I struggled with it for a while and noticed that this pain only increases anytime I drink alcohol or sleep on the bed. The fatigue had already left by this time. I stopped drinking alcohol and visited the hospital where they did an X-ray scan for my back. This is the report the doctor made after the scan result : “ There is loss of lumbar lordosis with straightening of the lumbar spine. The lumbar vertebrae are normal in outline , height and density. The intervertebral disc spaces are within normal limits. CONCLUSION: Loss of Lumbar lordosis ?Cause : R/O Muscle Spasm” The doctor said the pain maybe due to bad posture, I was advised to start sleeping on the floor and I was given a body pain med, Diclomol gel and some muscle meds. Ever since then, the pain has refused to leave me alone completely. It keeps coming and going and I thought to myself that the pain may have some spiritual hand in it. So, I made some spiritual consultations around and they gave me this soap/balm to rub my back with and truly the pain disappeared but it keeps coming back after few days. I have resorted to living with it and praying to Allah that one day it will finally go away. My question is this, is it possible that the damage to my auric field by consistently drinking alcohol could have brought about this pain in a spiritual way ? Honestly, if not for the pain, I wouldn’t have stopped alcohol completely. So sometimes I see the pain as a blessing in disguise from Allah. I’m so confused. Please help. Jazakumllah Khairan 🙏🏽 CC: mostyg empiree ladunal movado19 others 🙏🏽 1 Like |

Assalam alaikum I came across this on the facebook page of a brother yax Mokwa and it was like I had the exact questions in my mind, here :- In the vastness of the universe, does Islam offer any insights on the possibility of extraterrestrial life, and how does this impact our understanding of creation and messengers of God sent to mankind? Remember, the universe, which is space or the sky above our head is mind-bogglingly big. Our galaxy alone accounts for about 100 billion stars, and there could be trillions of galaxies in the universe. Our star, which we have named Sun in English, Yigidi in Nupe, Rana in Hausa, etc is one of the stars in our galaxy and it has 8 planets (excluding Pluto). Today, there are known 5,510 planets, including our Earth. If assume that each star has a single planet, then in our galaxy, we are talking about 100 billion planets. Do not forget that there are billions of galaxies out there. Scientists are estimating about 100 sextillion planets in the universe. In figures, that’s 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 planets. Out of these “uncountable” planets that are staggeringly far apart from each other, is there possibility that there is life and civilization in any of them? If there is, is their religion going to be the same as we have on Earth, with the names of our Prophets, same burial, etc. How about their pilgrimage to holy land? From the Islamic perspective, what do we expect to find in this vast universe? Also, the age of modern humans, Homo sapiens, on Earth is estimated to be approximately 200,000 years, based on fossil and genetic evidence. What if the extraterrestrial life on other planet is 1 million years or more? 2 Likes |

Deathstroke00:Walaikun salaam Eld Mubarak! This short article has actually been answered severally by some ulama here in Nigeria and Southeast Asia but they are in video format. I remembered that of Sheikh Ahmed Alaye and Sheikh AbdulFatai Thaqofy's intriguing lectures. I don't recall the names of those Asian scholars that delivered such lectures as well. You may search YouTube. I will do as well if I find something. It's been almost 10 years I watched those interesting lectures. 2 Likes |

Empiree:Assalama Alaykum, please when reciting the verse of concern 313x, should one recite with "Aoodhu" during every iteration or just once? |
Re: ...... by Empiree: 11:28am On Apr 25 |
dedghoul:walaikun salaam... I'm sorry for the late response. It is not necessary. Once you recite "Audhu" at the beginning that's sufficient. Hope this answers your question. |

Aslm ....new on nairaland..... Been reading this thread for days now.....may Allah( swt) bestow baraka, rahma ,ni'ima and sakeena upon the great shaykhs and legends in this thread @emekaraj, @ikupakuti, @aadoiza, @ladunaI, @empiree to mention those I can recall of-hand(pls note that I mean no offense if i failed to mention you......really typing fast....not that y'all haven't inspired,motivated and given me insights on my life challenges)....@emekaraj ...this isnt much but I want you to know that I pray for your twins in my tahajjud, sir..may Allah grant them the best of both worlds, make them prevail over all odds of life,make it easy for them to subdue, control and subjugate their nafs ,make them the apple of your eyes and make you proud...I am Zaria born and bred...grew up with izala friends but I never stopped using prayer beads I.e. charbi, I recall a certain close pal of mine who used to mock me for using it, but I never stopped, I jst smiled and ignored him.. ...i hav always been fanatical about academics ...great book lover, in recent years all I read on is books appertain ing to Islamic knowledge... I hate anything average, it jst doesn't sit right with me.... i mean, why should I be OK with 50 or even70 when I can work hard for 100%...after all d prophet s.a.w said "Allah loves that when you do something, you perfect it"..... Did mentality of mine finally began to pay-off in my jamb and post utme scores in 2014 and I am someone who if he strikes a match and it catches fire, will jst keep adding wood to that fire until I burn the building down...... To quote shaykh makari (translate from Hausa to English):" in this affair I.e. the journey to Allah, when your long walk leafs you to the destined spot then START RUNNING.... Unfortunately for me, my himma and zeal was cut short by a sudden spiritual attack(though some doctors said it is schizophrenia while d ones at ABUTHsaid it is bipolar disorder, but from my lengthy research on my self these are jst symptoms of an underlying, deeper problem...cos I HV been on hospital meds for ten years now.....d illness is DAT wen I go to school, I feel, after some few hrs like...severe bouts of shame tension and unease all at once...like I am not complete or I am guilty of some evil shameful deed which people jst found out about... So I pray to god to make this seemingly exhausting lecture end, I pack my books once it does and hurry home like hell....the noise on the campus , bus , street feels less like torture...words can't describe what I felt emotionally...It was hell and I was broken in every way....even spiritually which hurt d most... My dad has bn sick too b4he died in 2014 d same year I fell sick...in fact I fell sick few months after he died.... A certain sheikh and authority of d Quran(gwani) said to me that what left his head came upon d one who had the brightest star in the family..I started at a.b.u with a jamb score of 285(it was a big deal back then cox only 20 people got between 280 and 299 while only ten got e300 and above in Nigeria that year)...d death if my father struck few days to jamb...but it didn't kill my himma I.e. motivation...it only made me want to study harder....get out of the poverty of the lower class and help others too..then after jamb ....as u already know about me, my score only made me read like mad......some .....like my bro believe that is , coupled with d pain of d loss lead to d illness.... But I know myself very well ....I can handle stress....I am like those energetic guys who live off d adrenaline of working hard ...I read allnight and went to pray subhi that morning and didnt come back home...i felt like my family members all wanted to kill me but this was d beginning of delusions which was to follow...I was feeling abnormal and running mad gradually but u didn't know it.....I rem. Going to seek help from a Sufi sheikh(who is now my current sheikh) but he was absent at the time...he was probably doing dhikr in d masjid but I didn't know as we were not close at d time...... So I ran far away into d bush and was prepared to even spend d night there rather than GI back home my family became alarmed at ...I think 10 or so because they knew me Iam an introvert and not much of a talker as u might have guessed My family at diff. Parts of d country held prayers for my safe return home ...mind u then bokoharam was on d rise ...my poor mum later told me that her greatest worry was DAT I shld not run into dem...by 5pm d same day.. With the acceptance of my family's dua upon me a sudden thought came to me....."IF I DO NOT GO BACK HOME I WILL miss MY POSTUME EXAM.. dus one single thought made me decide to go back....I knew DAT bush well cox I go there to get dogoyaro for chewingstick but to illustrate my belief DAT it us a spiritual attack I almost couldn't find my way back into town....when I did with the aid of Allah I checked my phone and sawdat I had 97 missed calls from loved ones....d same people whom I claimed wanted me dead.... D first person to sight me coming back was my poor mum(I am not d crying type but wallahi as I am typing these words I am I'm tears ....MY MUM DIED LAST MONTH... after falling sick for two yrs...from another....as I believe spiritual attack which manifested as hypertensive stroke...SHE NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO SEE ME FINISH SCHOOL....but I am only summarising...my dad wen I was in class 3 and unserious once called me aside and said touching his shirt"Hamid look I can sell my last shirt jst to c DAT my son gets an education but wat I can't tolerate is unseriousess.I quickly knelt down and said thank u father..little did I know DAT dose days i was wasting my only chance to make ythem proud.... I HV never really bn did sordid about my past with anyone not to talk of an audience but I believe DAT we are all like minds.. EVEN IF IT IS A SINCERE DUA YOU MAKE FOR ME OR JST TYPE AN advice AS I believemost of u are busy pls do I will remain forever grateful...my initial g.p. at geography dept. Was 3.85 a disappoimtment to me as u know icould do better likewipe out d whole 5.00 but d worst was yet to come as it got deeper carryovers came go dropped den spill over n funally left sch.after i differed for like years and years and den lack money to pay in the buhariyya hardship time all because of two obstacles: the anxiety attack I get at school and my sudden unbelievable apathy and inability to read school books note that even during did time I still read motivational and other books but to tell that it Is witchcraft if I hold my school books I jst immediately feel like I can't do did....dis second symptom started after jamb and my dads death but b4 post ume in fact between wen we returned from my admission at hospital and my post ume I can say with certainty DAT I only opened my book to read for like five times in all and each session didn't last up to a minute...but I still got 280 in d post ume I believe I could have made at least 300 if not for my illness...nw ten years now I have been stock in one station in life my mate in sec.

And I am ashamed to mention it to my aunt and my cousins cos they see me now asa failure cos d girl always asks after me and she even brought to me a jotter of her graduation .....I am happy for her........smiles.... BT I am strong in Allah.. He helped me towards him as a result of all this which wouldn't have happened otherwise and I take solace in d belief DAT Allah only afflicts those whom he loves and DAT if in our early years u receive great trials it could only mean one thing: great good awaits..of did I have no doubt ..it is jst DAT I will forever remain heart broken dat my dad and esp. Mum who never got fed up or tired if me to d very end never got to get any benefit of my sweat......all I cold do even when her sickness took a turn for d worst was sweet talk and promises... I dreamt of something..( I can't remember what it was anymore as its been a while ....)so it was like a parable cos days how most if my dreams come ..I got did book called the dictionary of dreams by ibn seereen which I have been using to check d Islamic interpretation of dreams now..y+'all shld get it ...I can attest to its authenticity as it has never interpreted my dream in a way which later turned out to be false)d dream meant DAT someone will soon die in my family... I got scarred worried and I even cried DAT day because my dreams always come true...I told some people but they convinced me DAT it was jst a regular dream and not what I thought 6months later my mom passed away at abuth...my health has improved by a little but some things happen to me now..I see things like a person standing in front of me...like one day wen I wanted to go and pray subhi...I noticed this and his legs were not on d ground...I started to trcitr in m mind....laqadjakum...as as at then..
