عن أبي أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيُّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: ((بَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ إِذْ أَتَانِي رَجُلَانِ، فَأَخَذَا بِضَبْعَيَّ، فَأَتَيَا بِي جَبَلًا وَعْرًا فَقَالَا: اصْعَدْ، فَقُلْتُ: إِنِّي لَا أُطِيقُهُ، فَقَالَا: إِنَّا سَنُسَهِّلُهُ لَكَ، فَصَعِدْتُ...)) فساق الحديث إلى أن قال: ((ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَ بِي، فَإِذَا…

Don't let jealousy get in the way of memorising this du'a
Narrated 'Auf ibn Malik: the Prophet (ﷺ) offered funeral prayer on the dead body, and I remembered his supplication:
((اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَارْحَمْهُ وَعَافِهِ وَاعْفُ عَنْهُ وَأَكْرِمْ نُزُلَهُ وَوَسِّعْ مُدْخَلَهُ وَاغْسِلْهُ بِالْمَاءِ وَالثَّلْجِ وَالْبَرَدِ وَنَقِّهِ مِنَ الْخَطَايَا كَمَا نَقَّيْتَ الثَّوْبَ الأَبْيَضَ مِنَ الدَّنَسِ…
My Father Does Not Allow Me To Cover My Face
Question: I am a Salafi girl, and my father is someone who strongly dislikes Salafis. I wanted to cover my face, but he refused and was about to hit me. He does not see it as obligatory, and I hide from him that I have become Salafi because he only holds to his own opinion. What should I do about covering my face?

I'm an umarried revert in my 60s with no children. I've worked as a teacher for over 35 years.
In fact; teaching was my life and in my former years my career was my world and furthering it was all I cared about.
I wanted security in the dunya so I worked tirelessly for a house (which I obtained back then with a mortgage). Looking back, I was firecly independent and didn't think I needed a man for anything!

Sheikh Abu 'Amr ḥafidhahullāh said:
A woman should be content with what Allah, the Almighty, has apportioned to her.

"If one commits to a condition imposed upon him, then it is obligatory for him to fulfill it. This is based on the saying of the Prophet ﷺ: "The most deserving of conditions to be fulfilled are those by which you have made marital relations lawful." Yes, even though the marriage contract makes her his wife and it is permissible for him to consummate the marriage, common custom ('urf) dictates that mere agreement of…
"The principle in this matter is to adhere to customary practices ('Urf). Therefore, it is not permissible for him to consummate the marriage before announcing it as long as this is the custom.
The solution is for him to agree with the woman's guardian to bring forward the date of the marriage announcement. He should host a modest banquet without overburdening himself with expenses he cannot afford.
