*THE WATER OF REPENTANCE IS THE PUREST WATER*
*A mother is the producer of men and heroes.*
Allāh loves those who repent, and He loves those who purify themselves. He rejoices over the repentance of His slave more than a man rejoices when he finds his mount which carries his food and drink, after losing it in a barren land falling into despair and sitting by the root of a tree to await death, then he suddenly sees his animal standing by his head, with his food and drink on it, so he gets up and takes hold of its reins, and cries out in joy, O' Allāh, You are my Lord and I am your slave!" Glory be to Allāh, how great He is and how Merciful, for He rejoices at His slave's repentance and his attaining Paradise and earning His pleasure. Allāh calls His believing slaves with the words:
"... And turn to Allāh in repentance, all of you, O' believers, that you may be success." [Qur'an 24:31]
Repentance cleanses the heart with the water of tears and the fire of regret which burns in the heart, and with a feeling of humility and tears in the eyes. This is the first step of those who seek a path to Allāh, it is the capital of those who are successful, and the key to correcting those who have gone astray. The one who repents prays to Allāh and beseeches Him, weeping. When others relax he does not, when others are still his fear does not rest and the longing of his heart never ceases. He stands before his Lord with a grieving heart and distressed mind, bowing his head and trembling when he he remembers how many sins he committed. His grief overwhelms him and his tears flow. He prepares himself to be a winner tomorrow and to shed his worldly load so that he may pass quickly over the bridge of Hell.
*Think positively when things get bad on one day, for that may be the prelude to another day filled with joy and happiness.*
