5 Minute Madressa for the 5th of Rabi Ul Awwal

(1) Islaamic History The situation during the time of Hadhrat Isa (AS)
Although the people believed that Hadhrat Maryam (AS) was innocent of adultery, there were still many evil ones who doubted her innocence. In addition to this, she had seen the martyrdom of Hadhrat Zakariyya (AS). This and to protect her child from the tyrannical king Herod, she took her child to Egypt, where she lived for 12 years before returning to Baytul Muqaddas. Allaah revealed the Injeel to Hadhrat Isa (AS) when he was 30 years of age, at which time he started to propagate Towheed and renounce kufr and Shirk. Concerning the appearance of Hadhrat Isa (AS), Rasulullaah (SAW) said, “When I visited the 2nd heaven during Mi’raaj, I found him to be a man of average height and reddish complexion with long hair falling between his shoulders.”
(2) Allaah’s Power The touch-me-not plant
Allaah has created the touch-me-not plant. If one tries to touch it, it will immediately contract and then come back to shape after a while. Who is it that has placed this type of ‘modesty’ in the plant? Only Allaah can create such wonders.

(3) A Fardh Performing the Qadhaa Salaah
Rasulullaah (SAW) said, “When any of you forgets to perform Salaah or sleeps though the time of Salaah, then (as expiation) he should perform the Salaah as soon as he remembers.”

[Tirmidhi 177, from Hadhrat Abu Qataadah(RA)]
When a person misses the Fardh Salaah for a valid reason or sleeps though the time, it will be Fardh (obligatory) for him to perform the Qadhaa Salaah.
(4) A Sunnah Lending a helping hand in domestic chores
When Hadhrat Aa’isha (RA) was asked what Rasulullaah (SAW) did when he was at home, she replied, “He would lend a helping hand with the domestic chores, but would hasten for Salaah as soon as the time arrived.”
[Bukhaari 676]
(5) An Important Act and its Virtue Embarrassment for sinning
Rasulullaah (SAW) said that when a person feels embarrassed about an act or sin that he has committed, then this will suffice to secure his forgiveness for the sin.
[Shu’abul Imaan 6774, from Hadhrat Abdullaah bin Mas’ood (RA)]
(6) A Sin Some acts that attract Allaah’s curse
Rasulullaah (SAW) cursed people who draw tattoos, those who have it done, those who consume interest, those who pay interest, those who buy and sell dogs as well as those who draw pictures of animate objects. [Bukhaari 5347, from Hadhrat Abu Juhayfah (RA)]
(7) This World Destruction for those greedy for this world
Rasulullaah (SAW) said, “Destruction be on the slave of the Dinaar, the slave of the Dirham and the slave of expensive clothing. They are such that they are happy when they receive it and unhappy when they do not.” [Bukhaari 2886, from Hadhrat Abu Hurayrah (RA)]
(8) The Aakhirah The fury of the Khulafaa Raashideen on the Day of Qiyaamah
Allaah says in the Qur’aan, “(When suffering punishment in Jahannam,) Those who commit kufr will say, ‘O our Rabb! Show us the two groups from the Jinn and humankind who misled us (to commit kufr in the world). We want to trample them beneath our feet so that they become of those who are most humiliated (among the lowest)’”.
[Surah HaaMeem Sajdah, 29]
(9) Cures from the Qur’aan and Rasulullaah (SAW) Treating joint pains with figs
Rasulullaah (SAW) advised the use of figs to treat piles and joint pains. [Kanzul Ummaal 28276, from Hadhrat Abu Dharr (RA)]
(10) Qur’aanic Advice
Allaah says in the Qur’aan, “Assist each other in good works (virtue and piety) and Taqwa and do not assist each other in sin and transgression (oppression and injustice). Fear (the punishment of) Allaah! Most surely Allaah is severe in punishment”.
[Surah Maa’idah, verse 2]
