We only get one life so we should make the most out of it and ...Read More

It has a profound significance. It alludes to all of it that provides happiness and satisfaction. It comprises worldly pro...Read More
Eid-ul-Adha is also known as “the greatest Eid”. The day of Eid-ul-Adha is celebrated on the 10th of Dhu-al-Hijjah. In the Islamic religion, Muslims tend to celebrate two festivals of Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha.

Since Eid means “to celebrate” and Adha means “to sacrifice”, Eid-ul...Read More

Islam just teaches us to be careful of what we spend on a daily basis. We consider money to be our doorway to happiness: a method of fulfilling all of our goals and desires. Everyone ...Read More

There is no distinction between them in terms of their connection to Allah, as both are guaranteed the same reward for good behavior and the same penalty for wicked behavior. Allah (SWT) says in the Quran: Status of Women in Islam...Read More
