20 Ways to Show Off

Points extracted from an article written by Sheikh Salman b. Fahd al-Oadah (General Supervisor of the IslamToday Website). Sorry if I have misquoted his text or cause any confusion or misunderstanding regarding this topic of riya'. I highly recommend everyone to get the full text at http://islamtoday.com/book/showoff/20.pdf

========================================

The background nasyeed is called "Tabala" by Darb Al Saleen. Beautiful lyric, mashaAllah. Here's the translation:

(1)Go through the trials of life, the little of little trials, And prepare yourself for the long journey.

In his obedience you win both, life on earth and the hereafter, And in his obedience there is pride for the humiliated slave.

Repeat (1) And in his disobedience there is shame and fire (hellfire), And in such distance (from your Lord) you shall only find humiliation.

Repeat (1) So do not disobey your Lord, and obey Him, always, For you might be (luckily) accepted.

Repeat (1) And our Lord prays (grants His blessings) at all times, and offers peace (Salaam) at sunset and sunrise, to Taha, the messenger who brought in good tidings (Prophet Muhammed saw ), the seal of the Prophets, the guide,the leader.

secluding is good when you know those around you are not good, if they are not making salah or doing the basics then you know they not good, but if we are talking about extras then that would be incorect to seclude from them, ofcorse we must judge who is good company,it is necesity

[MrZift123]

no sister it wouldnt be showing off because im sure u and ur mother know that u are refering to the physical part of it. either way u cant really show off to ur parents if u noe wat i mean.

[muslimhanan]

so. what if i want to fast a couple days in one week (the fasting that i had to do in ramadan that i couldn't do) and my mom says i'll get weak, but i tell her fasting is easy for me, is that showing off?

Glory be to Allah. We asked that the actions-speech of the Muslim whether intended or mistaken be but the intimate display-discourse supplicated to Allah ta'ala The ONE Who is on HIgh to our plane lowly plain !! WHOa Allah, He is Allah--before Whom there is no other !! The eyes the windows of the soul follow the flown. JAK for the video and altitude.

[MrAlmuazzin]

akhi i think this nasheed should be only vocals due to the ijma general concensus that music is forbidden, but the specific type of drum is permissible for women at celebrations please check out fatwa on islam qa. ma salama
