    Creating an Atmosphere of Faith in the Home

    (3) Making the home a place for the remembrance of Allah

    The Prophet ﷺ said,

     “ The likeness of a house in which Allah is remembered and the house in which Allah is not remembered is that of the living and the dead, respectively.

    We must make our homes places where Allah is remembered in all kinds of ways, whether in our hearts, verbally, during prayer, by reading Qur’an, by discussing Islamic issues, or by reading different kinds of Islamic books.

    How many Muslim homes nowadays are dead because there is no remembrance of Allah, as mentioned in the hadeeth. What must they be like when all that is heard therein is the music of Shaytan with instruments and singing, and backbiting, slander and gossip?

    What must they be like when they are filled with evil and sin, such as the haraam mixing of the sexes and wanton display between relatives who are not mahram or with neighbours who enter the home?

    How can the angels enter a home like this? Revive your homes with all kinds of dhikr, may Allah have mercy on you!
