The condition involves not only changes in mood, but also changes in  sleep , energy, appetite, concentration, and motivation. If you have physical symptoms like these and find yourself  feeling  depressed much of the time for days or weeks please help yourself first. During the time of depression we are overpowered by Shaitan (Devil) and strange thoughts like SUICIDE (taking one's life) start coming to our minds without opening up to people around us. Please help yourself by first reciting this below from the Holy Quran severally. Then see a doctor. "Ya Robbi Ani Mogluubun Fantesir" May Almighty Allaah grant us peace of mind with this.

ZAKAT AL-FITR and HOW MUCH GIVEN!

WHAT IS ZAKAT AL FITR? Zakat Al Fitr is a donation to charity given on the last day of Ramadan or before the Eid-El Fitr Prayers. All Muslims are obliged to give to the poor at Eid al-Fitr, young and old, male and female. They must also give to the poor before the Eid prayer, Salat which is said together in a Mosque before the Eid celebrations. Muslims can give Zakat, which is help from the rich to the poor, one or two days before the Eid prayer, but not after. If you give it before the prayer it is considered Zakat al-Fitr and if you give it after the Eid prayer it is considered ordinary charity . Zakat al-Fitr should be given in the form of food as the prophet did. The amount of Zakat is the same for everyone regardless of how wealthy they are.

About 2kg of flour, wheat, barley or rice from each person in a household is the minimum amount of Zakat that can ...

Zakat......The Third Pillar Of Islam

Image
Zakat Zakat is the compulsory giving of a set proportion of one's wealth to charity. It is regarded as a type of worship and of self-purification. Zakat is the third Pillar of Islam "Those who believe and do deeds of righteousness and establish regular prayers and regular charity will have their reward with their Lord: on them shall be no fear nor shall they grieve"...Q 2:277 Most of the time Zakat is mentioned joined with prayers, so much so that a companion  of the prophet said, “no prayers are accepted without Zakat.” Zakat is frequently referred to in the Quran and Sunnah as “Sadaqatt” (meaning charity).  One of the most important principles of Islam is that all things belong to God,  and God entrusts that the wealth we have to us, and He prescribed certain rights to be given  to different sources explained below.  If the owner of the wealth is minor or insane, his guardian must pay the Zakat once it is due. The literal meaning of the Za...

False Accusation/Suspicion

False Accusation/Suspicion False accusation is worse than backbiting. It is to falsely attribute a deficiency or an offence to a believing person. It is certain that this transgression is the most wicked of attacks upon the prestige of a believer. Allah the Most High said:  “And whoever commits a fault or a sin, then accuses of it one innocent, he indeed takes upon himself the burden of a calumny and a manifest sin.” He also said:  “Surely (as for) those who speak evil of Allah and His Apostle, Allah has cursed them in this world and the hereafter, and He has prepared for them a chastisement bringing disgrace.” The Holy Prophet Muhammad (S) said:  “Backbiting is speaking about your brother what he does not like to be mentioned.”  And he added:  “Know that if you mention what is actually in him, this is backbiting; and if you mention what is not actually in him, this is a false accusation.” Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq (a.s.) said:  “Backbiting is sayin...

The Physical Benefits of Prayers (Salat)

The Physical Benefits of Salat Ahmadiyya Gazette, August 1993 Salat is one of the five fundamental requirements that a Muslim is obligated to perform. Salat is given the highest priority in the Holy Quran. There are many benefits of Salat described in the Book of Allah. It says, innassalata tanha anil fahsha’i , Surely Prayer restrains one from indecency. (29:46) In chapter Luqman, We read that when Hadhrat Luqman was giving advice to his son, the first and foremost on his mind was to remind his son, ya bunayya aqimissalat “O my dear son,! observe Prayer.” (31:8) According to a Hadith the Prophet of Islam (peace be upon him) is reported to have said, inna fissalati shifa’a ” verily there is cure in salat “. According to a Muslim scholar, as reported in monthly Urdu magazine, Tahazibul Akhlaq , Aligarh, India, a Muslim who offers salat regularly has very little chance of getting arthritis as we exercise our bones and joints while we offer salat. In the light of this...
