Benefits of wudu (ablution)



Asalam alaykum

I hope you are all good. Today I will be writing about the benefits of wudu. We Muslims are required to perform wudu before performing salat. "O you who believe! When you rise to pray, wash your faces and your hands and arms to the elbows, and wipe your heads, and your feet to the ankles. If you had intercourse, then purify yourselves. If you are ill, or travelling, or one of you returns from the toilet, or you had contact with women, and could not find water, then use some clean sand and wipe your faces and hands with it. God does not intend to burden you, but He intends to purify you, and to complete His blessing upon you, that you may be thankful." Quran 5:6

We have obligatory and non-obligatory prayers. The 5 times daily prayers are obligatory, thus you should perform ablution at least 5 times daily. If perform ablution for zuri and its not broken till its time for asri, although its not compulsory for you to repeat the wudu but it is better you do. Prayers like doha and tahajjud would also require wudu before they can be performed.

Wudu purifies you spiritually, physically and  mentally.  Allah (Exalted and Glorious is He) protects you even more when you have wudu. You already have two angels, one that writes your good deeds and another one that writes your bad deeds. And you have two angels that protects you on Allah's command. "He has a succession; before him and behind him, protecting him by God’s command. God does not change the condition of a people until they change what is within themselves. And if God wills any hardship for a people, there is no turning it back; and apart from Him they have no protector." Quran 13:11.

Washing your face at least 5 times daily helps  prevent your face from aging fast. Your skin glows cause it opens the pores of your skin. Rinsing your mouth 5 times daily helps your oral hygiene. Cleansing the nose helps to prevent flu, cold and the likes. Washing the arms and washing the feet helps to prevent mental problems. It also gives you strength. Wudu relaxes the nervous system.

May Allah forgive me for any error I might have made.

That is all for today. Everything should be done seeking the pleasure of Allah. Part of seeking the pleasure of Allah (Exalted and Glorious He is) is to hope for a reward from Him in this life and the hereafter. Everything happens according to the will of Allah (you have freewill, therefore, you are responsible for your actions).

Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah). May Allah send peace and blessings to Prophet Muhammed (P.B.U.H). Thank you for reading this article. Like this page on facebook. Keep reading this blog regularly. Cheers!

Ma salam.

How to Make Money from Gold

We used to operate in a gold standard system in the past, it is common knowledge that we presently operate in a dollar based system.  A system where each country measures the value of its currency against the dollar for the dollar based system and the gold for the gold standard system. The gold used to be a yardstick for measuring the value of a currency, although it is no longer used to measure the value of currencies these days, it has maintained it's prestigious value. Gold a very valuable metal, its prices depreciates at times and appreciates other times, but looking at its trend over 100 years, the prices have always appreciated over 10 years or above.

The saverholic

Image courtesy of dan at FreeDigitalPhotos.net It involves minimal risk saving your money. I always say first save your money in an halal account, once it has reached a particular threshold start investing. The saverholic only saves and saves and saves and cannot afford to take well calculated risks. Because, all you do is to save money. Invest in other markets, the higher the risk the higher the return, diversify your investment portfolio.  All individuals that have achieved financial growth of great heights are risk takers, and they know that some risk might turn out negative but they know is all part of the process. They learn from it and apply it to the next risk they take and eventually they become experts at the risk they take (risk taken should not be excessive(too much uncertainty)). Then they end up having 80% success rates which I think is good enough. Make sure your business is halal.  Give charity regularly from your income, Allah loves charity an...
