Assalaamu Alaikum,
I hope everyone is in the best of health and Imaan Insha Allah.

Wa Alaikum As Salaam, and for real how did you choose that name, reference to a hadith about the end of times by chance?

Burning coal

Yes my name is a reference to the Hadith on the end of times It's really scary when you think of it, so it is meant to serve as a reminder to myself and others as well. Insha Allah may Allah give us the strength at such a testing time!

Jazak Allah sister Shanaz ;)

By the way, the Kaabah pic looks real good Alhamdulillah! I could just look at it all day

Burning coal

I know it has been said that as we come closer to the Last Day, the Fitnah in the World will be increased, and holding on to ones Imaan will become difficult - as difficult as holding on to a burning coal. You cannot drop the coal as that would mean leaving off your Iman, but one can only imagine the agony of holding onto it!

I cannot find the actual Hadith, but I will continue looking , if anyone finds it, kindly post it so we can all benefit from it Insha Allah. Jazak Allah!

Jazaak Allaah sis for posting the meaning of the hadiith. we definately need to keep on reminding ourselves of things like this, because it surely is a struggle to keep firm in our faith.
