Innamal a Malu Binniyat

Deeds judged by their intent

A truth we must not forget

For our actions, we'll be held accountable, yet


Good intentions are the seed.

From which love and desire breed

A heart that's pure and sincere

Brings blessings and happiness near


Our destiny lies in our hands.

As we fulfil our life's demands

But the path we take depends

On our bond with Allah, the one who mends


So let us strive to do what's right

With intentions pure and bright

For in the end, it's not just the act

But the heart's intent that impacts


Innamal a Malu Binniyat

May this truth forever stay

As we journey through life's pathway

And Allah guides us along the way


Innamal a'malu binniyat,

Deeds judged by intent; that's the fact.

For good intention comes from love,

And desire that's pure as a dove.


Fulfilment of action, destiny's part,

Dependent on Allah, the Master of art.

Predisposition, bond with Him,

Guides the way, life's beautiful hymn.


The heart that's pure, the soul that's kind,

The deeds that flow with love in mind,

All will be weighed on the final day,

When we stand, and for our actions pay.


So let's keep our intentions true,

And let our actions follow through,

For deeds will be judged by their intent,

And to Allah, we will all be present.

  What does Iqra (اقرأ) mean? The first word revealed in the Quran is sometimes translated as "read" or "recite". In the English language, these two words can hold a broad scope of meanings with slight variations such as: Read: to understand the meaning of written symbols (not necessarily aloud) Recite: to verbally repeat from memory (read aloud) The word Iqra in the many verses seems to have a broad meaning which is (a command to the prophe ) to read and then proclaim it to the people by reciting it aloud. The word Iqra was also used metaprically in the sense of "accumulating something, distributing it, transferring it to other places". "For example, Qaraet'in-nâqatu was the name to the general incident of camels getting pregnant, carrying the baby in the womb,and giving birth to it. in addition, the same word is used for "bringing together letters, words, sentences or information and transmitting it to someone else". This is also why i...

 Surah Al-Isra Ayat 85 : Wa yas’aloonaka ‘anirrooh; qulir roohu min amri rabbee wa maaa ooteetum minal ‘ilmi illaa qaleelaa Sahih International And they ask you, [O Muhammad], about the soul. Say, “The soul is of the affair of my Lord. And mankind have not been given of knowledge except a little.” The Hadith of Safeena is a hadith that uses the example of a boat to teach that people should prevent corruption and evil in society. The hadith compares society to a boat, where the lower deck passengers want to make a hole in the boat that will cause it to sink. The hadith states that if the upper deck passengers do not stop the lower deck passengers from making the hole, then everyone will be punished by Allah.  The hadith explains that the upper deck passengers should ensure that the lower deck passengers are well cared for and not troubled by them coming up to the upper deck for water. If the upper deck passengers leave the lower deck passengers to do what they want, then both p...

 One of the learned Islamic scholar Shaykh ibn Taymiyyah said: Three things are lies 1: tafseer (commentary of the Quran written with fake stories and wrong interpretations ) 2: Seerah  (also called al-maghazi- written with fake stories and history made as life of Rasool Allah SAW and his companions) 3. Ghuzwat (also called al-malahim - written with fake battles in Islam) "Allah has provided evidence (i.e. Isnad) establishing the authenticity or lack thereof of the narrations that are necessary in matters of the religion. It is well known that most of what was reported in aspects of Tafsir (commentaries on the Qur'an) is similar to narrations reporting Maghazi (or Seerah) and battles, promoting Imam Ahmad to state that three matters do not have Isnad: Tafsir, Mala'him (i.e. great battles), and Maghazi. This is because most of their narrations are of the Maraseel (without reliable companions or successor) type, such as narrations reported by Urwah Ibn az-Zubair, ash-Sha...
