Saying upon remembering a calamity The Prophet s.a.w said , "If any Muslim man or woman suffers a calamity and keeps it in his memory, even if it happened a long time ago, saying each time it is remembered, "Inna lillahiwainnailaihiraji'un" ('We belong to Allah and to Him do we return,') Allah, who is Blessed and Exalted will give a fresh reward each time it is said, equivalent to the reward when it happened." (Tirmidhi, Ahmad and Bayhaqi)

  18. Abu Talha(r.a)’sExample And we all know the famous incidence about the companion Abu Talha and his wife when one of the sons died and Abu Talha was not at home. She washed and shrouded him and when Abu Talha came home and asked about his son, she said, 'The child is quiet and I hope he is in peace….' (Bukhari)

  26. LESSONS • Share what you are learning with others  • Don’t be upset if people start asking you a lot of questions since you’ve started this course • If there is more than 1 opinion about a matter, or different interpretations, don’t hide the knowledge

  27. Ayah 160 Except for those who repent and correct themselves and make evident [what they concealed]. Those - I will accept their repentance, and I am the Accepting of repentance, the Merciful.

  28. Ayah 161 Indeed, those who disbelieve and die while they are disbelievers - upon them will be the curse of Allah and of the angels and the people, all together.

  29. LESSONS • If you have been living for just this world, then all your deeds will be left for this world • Take account of your bank balance for the Hereafter • Repent when you still have the chance  • Repentance NOT accepted at the time of death
