Our Beloved Prophet SallAllahu alaihi wasallam said, There is a certain hour in the night wherein if a Muslim asks Allah Ta’ala for any good of this world and the Hereafter, Allah Ta’ala will certainly give it to him. And this continues throughout the night.
Tahajjud; a most blessed prayer. (previous detailed post)
O Allah! All the praises are for you, You are the Holder of the Heavens and the Earth, and whatever is in them. All the praises are for You; You have the possession of the Heavens and the Earth and whatever is in them. All the praises are for You; You are the Light of the Heavens and the Earth and all the praises are for You; You are the King of the Heavens and the Earth; and all the praises are for You; You are the Truth and Your Promise is the truth, And to meet You is true, Your Word is the truth and Paradise is true and Hell is true and all the Prophets (Peace be upon them) are true; and Muhammad is true, and the Day of Resurrection is true. O Allah! I surrender (my will) to You; I believe in You and depend on You. And repent to You, and with Your help I argue (with my opponents, the non-believers) and I take You as a judge (to judge between us). Please forgive me my previous and future sins; and whatever I concealed or revealed You are the One who make (some people) forward and (some) backward. There is none to be worshipped but You.
And We have sent you not but as a mercy for the Alameen, Al-Anbiya 21:107 is the main verse with the names Muhammad, Hameed, Mahmoud and Ahmad reading clockwise from the top right around the circular verses. I do not know the origin of this work either, please share if you know, Insha’Allah.
NASRUN LINA ALLAH WA FATHUN QAREEB WA BASHIR AL MU’MINEEN
Help from Allah and a near victory. And give glad tidings to the believers. As-Saff 61:13
All good is from Allah Ta’ala whereas mistakes are from this humble speck. May Allah Ta’ala Bless all readers, bringing you all closer to Him and His Rasul SallAllahu alaihi wasallam. May He accept our humble efforts and grant us the capacity to be good and do good. Ameen.
As-salaamu ALaikum,
As-salaatu wasalaamu alaika Yaa Rasul Allah sallahu alaihi wasallam.
Jazak Allah Khair indeed…

jazakallah…nice to be almost “in” masjid Nabawi.The houses of Allah swt are truly a refuge for the Mo’mineen.On the way back from the hospital it was getting late for Asr so we had to stop at the Musalaah … one brother directed me in Arabic to the ladies wudu area ..and Ahhh how good it felt to be in there ” Ya Allah !” was what the heart felt “so good to be with Muslims” in this solace from the ouside noise.
Wassalam

Wa ‘alaikumus Salam Dear Ukht Farah, just returned from sitting almost where the first photo taken from…so beautiful, and managed to be in the actual Rowdha as-Shareef for you all, despite the crowds, Alhumdulillah. Making special mention for your mother Dear Umm Yusuf. Nice to hear of your ‘musalla’ retreat.
Dear ‘Sister in Islam’, JazakiLlahu khairan for the encouragement…needed these days, have added you to my list.
Dear Umm-e-Shiraaz it was upon your request some time ago wanting to see inside where sisters cannot venture that I asked the brother to take photos, so JazakiLlahu khairan for the suggestion.
Wassalamu alaikum
