Begin with Bismillah – The Sunnah of Starting Right
🕋 Daily Hadith:
“Every important word or matter that does not begin with ‘Bismillah’ is cut off (from blessings).”
— Ibn Hibban, Hadith Hasan
As Muslims, we are encouraged to begin all acts — big or small — with “Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem”. This simple phrase isn’t just a ritual, it’s a declaration: that we seek Allah’s blessings, mercy, and help before undertaking anything.
🌟 Reviving a Simple Sunnah
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ consistently began actions with the name of Allah — eating, entering or leaving the home, starting a journey, and even intimate moments with family. This habit wasn’t symbolic; it anchored life in consciousness of Allah.
- Before eating: say Bismillah
- Before driving or traveling: say Bismillah
- Before writing an email or message: start with Bismillah in your heart
These small acts build a God-conscious life — where barakah flows into your time, actions, and results.
💡 Today’s Sunnah Tip
Choose one habit you already do daily (like opening your laptop, unlocking your phone, or preparing food), and **intentionally begin it with Bismillah** today. Observe how your awareness changes.
May Allah bless your day with barakah and ease. 🌙
