REMINDER

 *REMINDER*


As-Salamu Alaykum warahamtullahi wabarakatuh,


Prophet Muhammad (Blessings and Peace of ALLĀH be upon him) said:


*_“Allah says, ‘I am just as My slave thinks I am, (i.e. I am Able to do for him what he thinks I can do for him) and I am with him if he remembers Me. If he remembers Me in himself, I too remember him in Myself; and if he remembers Me in a group of people, I remember him in a group that is better than them; and if he comes one span nearer to Me, I go one cubit nearer to him; and if comes one cubit nearer to me, I go a distance of two outstretched arms nearer to him; and if he comes to me walking, I go to him running.’”_* (Sahih Al Bukhari, 9/7405, Muslim and At-Tirmidhi). 


According to the Scholars, the above Hadith means that Allah is Able to do whatever His servant expects of Him. Expecting the best of Allah is to expect that He will have Mercy on you and relieve you of all hardships. He will forgive you if you seek it and accept your repentance if you repent. A believer’s heart assumes the best of his or her Lord and always expects the best from Him. Such a person expects good from Allah both in times of ease and hardship, with firm conviction that Allah wants good for him in either situation. The secret of such a person is that his or her heart is connected to Allah, and the flow of good from Allah is never cut off. 


Therefore call upon Allah with certainty that He will answer, regardless of your present situation. Do not give up hope in Allah’s Mercy; only losers give up hope in the vast mercy of Allah. No matter your sins or hardships, turn to Him. He will surely respond.  “As for the believers whose hearts are connected to Allah, they do not despair of the Mercy of Allah even if they are surrounded on all sides by disaster and severe hardship” (Sayyid Qutb).


May Allah enable us to have good expectations of Him and hope in Him. May He elevate us to a level where we place our complete reliance on and trust in Him.

NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH

 DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yawm Arba'a. 29th day of Shaw'waal, 1445AH (Wednesday 8th May 2024). *_NOTHING HAPPENS WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF ALLAH_*. BismilLah.  Even though feelings of Panic, stress/worries etc are part of life, they must not reduce our acts of worship or trust in ALLAH. The more a man turns to ALLAH and focuses on HIM, the more he will feel a sense of peace and comfort, to an extent that no one knows except ALLAH. Hence those who know ALLAH, are close to HIM and fear HIM are the happiest of people, to such an extent that one of them said, in a well-known expression: “If the kings and the sons of kings knew what joy we have, they would fight us for it with the sword.” This is also what is expressed in the Qur’an, as ALLAH says: “Whoever works righteousness, whether male or female, while he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism) verily, to him ALLAH will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision), and ALLAH will ...

As Time passes
