Punishment of NOT praying Compulsory Salat

-- Punishment of NOT praying Compulsory Salat --

Narrated Samura bin Jundab:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said in his narration of a dream that he saw, "He whose head was being crushed with a stone was one who learnt the Qur'an but never acted on it, and slept ignoring the compulsory prayers."

Sahih al-Bukhari 1143

Miswak


 'Abdur-Rahman bin Abu 'Atiq said:
  "My father told me: 'I heard 'Aishah say, (narrating) from the prophet():

" Siwak is a means of purification for the mouth and is pleasing to the Lord".

                                                      Sunan an-Nasa'i 5

The Late King Of A Community Who Had Ten Wild Dogs




The late king of a community had ten wild dogs. He used them to torture and eat any of his servants who made a mistake. One of the
servants gave an opinion which was wrong, and the king didn’t like it at all. So he ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs.

The servant said, “I served you for ten years, and you do this to me? Please give me ten days before throwing me to those dogs!”
The king agreed.

In those ten days, the servant went to the guard who looks after the dogs and told him he would like to serve the dogs for the next ten days. The guard was baffled but agreed, and the servant started feeding the dogs, cleaning for them, bathing them, and providing all sorts of comfort for them.

When the ten days were over, the king ordered
that the servant be thrown to the dogs for his
punishment. When he was thrown in, we were all amazed to see the ravenous dogs only licking the feet of the servant!

The king, baffled at what he was seeing, said,
”What has happened to my dogs?”
The servant replied, "I served the dogs for only
ten days, and they didn’t forget my service. Yet I served you for a whole ten years and you forgot all, at my first mistake!"

The king realised his mistake and ordered the
servant to be set free.

This post is a message to all those who forget
the good things a person did for them as soon as the person makes a mistake towards them. Don’t put out the history that is filled with good
because of a mistake you don’t like.

Hope I made sense?

Sins Exit With The Water Of Wudu (Ablution)

Praising Allah For Making It Easy For Us To Devour And Digest Food

Dua Masura Before Salaam

Allahumma inni zalamtu nafsi zulman kathiran wa la yagh-firudh-dhunuba illa Anta, faghfirli maghfiratan min `indika warhamni,innaka Antal-Ghafurur-Rahim

(O Allah, I have wronged myself greatly and no one forgives sins but You, so grant me forgiveness from You and have mercy on ms, for You are the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful)
