LESSON OF THE DAY 386

Ayahs of the Day:
Pray regularly at the borders of the day, and the approaches of the night; for good things remove bad things. That is a reminder for the mindful. And be patient, for God will not neglect the reward of the good. [11: 114,115]

Hadith of the Day:
Nothing is weightier on the Scale of Deeds than one's good manners. [Bukhari]

Wise Quote of the Day:
Knowledge and understanding is inherited from teachers, not merely inferred through one's own reason. [Hamza Karam Ali]

Guidance of the Day:
Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings upon him) proclaimed true freedom to humanity, and ingrained in human consciousness that all human beings are equal before the law. He established that superiority lies in virtue, piety, and morality. He regarded proclaiming the truth against all oppressors and oppressive thought as a kind of worship.

He (peace and blessings upon him) called upon us to protect religion, life, reason, property, and the integrity of family and lineage, and to strive for this purpose. In a remarkable balanced way, he proclaimed that no other duty could equal this struggle.He (peace and blessings upon him) unveiled the transitory nature of this world and death, and showed the grave to be a waiting room opening on to a realm of eternal happiness. [Pearls of Wisdom]

Food for Thought:

Rejoice in the things that you have. Seek not after the riches nor the vain things of this world, for behold you cannot carry them with you.
