Note: When Invited To Attend A Muslim's Wedding Try To Attend And Support For Allah's Sake Even With A Simple Gift

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم 

🌻May Allah the Almighty reward ustadh Yahya Rivera for inviting us to his wedding (waleemah), bless his marriage always and protect him and his Muslim loved ones at all times and also guide his other families and relatives and neighbors to the truth and correct 'Aqeedah at the most ideal timing. Ameen.

Abu Huraira RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, “Give each other gifts and you will love each other.”
Source: Al-Adab Al-Mufrad lil-Bukhārī 594
Grade: Hasan (fair) according to Ibn Hajar

If a Muslim made it clear that you're invited to attend their wedding, even verbally (saying "you should come to my wedding", "you're welcome to my Nikaah" or "see you at my wedding!"), without waiting for an invitation card or virtual invite, then you must try to attend their wedding and support their marriage for Allah's sake even if you don't have a gift yet to give. Your presence can
Inn-sha-Allah make them happy that you're supporting their marriage and you can
Inn-sha-Allah buy or give them a late wedding gift some time after the wedding.

The total price of the gifts I bought for ustadh Yahya Alhamdulillah was around 900 pesos something and the money was actually given by my dear brothers (I still need to settle some debts as well) since they had other tasks to do particularly related to preparing for the upcoming dawrah or special conference for Muslim males here at Wisdom Islamic School
Inn-sha-Allah some time this June 2026.

The kind of wedding gift I would like to buy for those whom I care about for Allah's sake would either include any of the following:
1. Lamp
2. Night light
3. Halal board games like Word Factory or even badminton or pickleball sets which the wife and husband can play together at times to strengthen their bond. I remember that phase when my husband and I played badminton often in the backyard before this compound was developed into a school Alhamdulillah.
4. Aesthetic wall clock with batteries included
5. Matching coffee mugs or tea cups
6. Mirror
7. Pots with artificial flowers to decorate one's bedroom, bathroom or residence.

A gift doesn't need to be luxurious or expensive to prove you care about another Muslim. It just needs to be given from your heart sincerely for Allah's sake. Even two chocolate bars wrapped with a cute ribbon and small card can be a gift that brings some smiles and good vibes.

For you to buy some Muslim newlyweds a gift worth even 150 pesos (some mugs cost 50 pesos each only) is a whole lot better than just attending their wedding without any present, and for you to attend their wedding without any present is still a lot better than not bothering to show up due to temporary financial struggles. You can try to contact some friends or colleagues of the same gender if they can generously give you a ride to attend the wedding together or you can at least send a virtual greeting to congratulate the Muslim bride and groom sincerely.

Any good we do for Allah's sake especially during these first days of Dhul-Hijjah can be rewarding and benefit us in both worlds.

  بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم 

Assalamu 'alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh✨

Alhamdulillah it's Dhul-Hijjah and these first days of Dhul-Hijjah are the best days of the year in which doing good deeds for Allah's sake on these days are likely rewarded Inn-sha-Allah multifold 🌻

You and your Muslim loved ones are welcome to earn even more rewards by sending some sadaqah for Allah's sake as I am going through a difficulty in trying to pay a large amount of debts due to insufficient funds at the moment. It was 10K something pesos then it increased to 12K plus (around 700 something Saudi Arabian Riyals, 700 something dirhams and more than 100 pounds).

We are currently in the first days of Dhul-Hijjah Alhamdulillah — an ideal and blessed time where good deeds are most beloved to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala. By helping ease my financial distress for Allah's sake during these sacred days, you can, Inn-sha-Allah, be immensely rewarded with multiplied blessings in both this world and the next.

Note: Allah the Almighty is our Witness at all times. If I wasn't financially struggling, Allah the All-Seeing knows I wouldn't be posting this message.

If you are unable to provide Sadaqah at this time, I humbly request that you please include me in your sincere supplications/Duas for settling my debts as I'm the sort of Muslim who dislikes having debts and if I had the financial means, Wallahi, I would gladly and readily do Sadaqah for Allah's sake to others in need especially since in Islam the upper hand is always better than the lower hand, meaning those who give charity are better in general than those who receive more often.

Allah the Almighty knows best.

JazakumAllahu Khairan✨

Or via Wise or Swift to GoTyme:

May Allah the Almighty forgive all our mistakes, increase the barakah blessings and halal sustenance and provisions in our life and Muslim loved ones' lives and help us settle all our debts, make us from the people of Jannatul Ferdaus and join us with al-mutasaddiqeen wal mutasaddiqaat, and protect us in both worlds at all times. Ameen.

🌻 Profile of Mariam Mababaya, M.A. Islamic Studies
Heritage and Upbringing: A Filipino of Maranao descent, she was born in Saudi Arabia and resided there for several decades, beginning in the 1980s (we were residents of Saudi Arabia Alhamdulillah for about 20 years).

Early Education and Academic Transitions: Her foundational education was conducted primarily in Arabic; she attended Al-Yamamah National School from kindergarten through 5th grade, followed by two years of junior high school in a Saudi government institution. While she briefly transitioned to the English section of Manarat Al-Riyadh Schools, the initial shift from Arabic to English-medium instruction presented unique challenges that led her to pursue alternative academic paths.

Islamic Foundational Studies: During her formative years, she pursued specialized lessons in Islamic Studies and Arabic at Daar Adh-Dhikr and the World Assembly of Muslim Youth (WAMY) in Riyadh, engaging with a diverse community of Muslim women from various nationalities.

Curriculum and Core Disciplines: Throughout her time in both private and public Arabic schools, she developed more understanding of Tawheed, Hadith, Fiqh, and Tajweed Alhamdulillah and she still continues to learn about our Deen Islam through reliable sources.

She furthered her studies by enrolling at Middle East International School (IGCSE/British section) and Al-Rowad International Schools (English section) then she earned a Master of Arts in Islamic Studies degree through Mindanao State University - Wisdom International (MSU-WINT). This online institute was managed by her parents, Dr. Norlain Dindang who obtained her PhD degree in UP Diliman and Dr. Omar Mamarinta Mababaya (Allah yarhamhuma) who attained his PhD degree in the United Kingdom, in collaboration with Dr. Norma Mangondato Sharief (Allah yarhamha. Ameen) of MSU Mindanao State University in Marawi. Both her parents (Allah yarhamhuma. Ameen) have had their Islamic books published by Darussalam Publishers in Riyadh city.

Youthful Engagement and Scholarly Correspondence: As a teenager, she was a dedicated viewer of live Fatawa programs in Arabic language on Saudi Channel 1. She actively engaged with the scholars by submitting inquiries via email and fax, receiving personalized guidance from Sheikh Abdulaziz Aal al-Sheikh (may Allah reward him with Jannatul Ferdaus. Ameen).

Theological Growth and Da’wah: Alhamdulillah she has taught Qur'an subject to several students at Wisdom Islamic School established by her parents (Allah yarhamhuma. Ameen.) with Allah's Will since year 2010. As years passed by Alhamdulillah she deepened her adherence to the Salafi methodology with a particular emphasis on sound 'Aqeedah. She remains a committed seeker of knowledge, regularly sharing helpful Islamic reminders online for the sake of Allah. May Allah the Almighty keep us sincere and accept our efforts to please Only Him Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala and decree we're from the people of Jannatul Ferdaus with Allah's Mercy. Ameen.

Literary Contributions and Digital Presence: A prolific writer since her early teens, she has authored over 300 poems and manages several blogs. She utilizes these digital platforms to conduct Da'wah, sharing valuable insights whenever the opportunity arises.

Alhamdulillah with Tawfeeq from Only Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala she successfully completed a four-year course of study at Markaz Ibn Al-Qayyim in Kuwait. Under the management of Dr. Khalid Adh-Dhufairy, she maintained a high level of academic excellence, consistently achieving scores between 90% and 93%.
