About Al Kareem Mosque
The benefits of having wudu
عَنْ أَبِيْ هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُوْلُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُوْلُ اِنَّ أُمَّتِيْ يُدْعَوْنَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ غُرًّا مُحَجَّلِيْنَ مِنْ أثَارِ الْوُضُوْءِ فَمَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يُطِيْلَ غُرَّتَهٗ فَلْيَفْعَلْ – رواه البخاري باب فضل الوضوء والغرمحجلون
Meaning:
Abu Hurairah ( R ) stated he heard that Rasulullah ( صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ) said, surely my ummah ( Nation ) will be called in the day of Judgement 'Gurran muhazzaleen' (The person whose forehead, hands and legs are white ) for the cause of ablution, so whoever can lengthen his brightness, do so.
To whom I should send hadiya ( gift ) first
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ لِي جَارَيْنِ فَإِلَى أَيِّهِمَا أُهْدِي قَالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى أَقْرَبِهِمَا مِنْكِ بَابًا
5674 صحيح البخاري كتاب الأدب باب حق الجوار في قرب الأبواب
Meaning: Aisha reported: I said, “O Messenger of Allah, I have two neighbors; to whom should I send my gifts?” The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “To the neighbor who is closest to your door.”

Having Sahoor is a way to get blessings and rewards
قَالَ رَسُوْلُ اللهُ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَسَحَّرُوْا فَاِنَّ قِي السَّحُوْرِ بَرَكَة – رواه البخاري و مسلم
The messenger of Allah jalla jalaaluhu said, Have sahoor, because there are blessings in having sahoor.
- Bukhari and Muslim
Annotation:
1. For performing fasting to have food before subah sadiq is called Sahoor. The best time to have sahoor is the last one-sixth part of the night. To take sahoor is sunnah. If a person takes some food or drinks as sahoor for performing fasting, he will get the blessings and rewards of having sahoor.
If somebody performs fasting without having sahoor, his fasting will be perfect and accepted. But he will be deprived of the rewards and blessings of having sahoor.
2. Subah Sadiq:
It is an Arabic word. Subah Sadiq (Pre-dawn) is when the time of Fajr enters. Sehri ends at the time of Subah Sadiq. As a precaution, all eating must stop at least 5 minutes before subah sadiq.
3. Sahoor:
It is an Arabic word. The food eaten for fasting before Subah sadiq is called sahoor.
