*DUNYA AND ITS DISTRACTIONS*

*Attaining True Happiness*

Allah ﷻ says in the Qur'an:
*مَنْ عَمِلَ صَٰلِحًۭا مِّن ذَكَرٍ أَوْ أُنثَىٰ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌۭ فَلَنُحْيِيَنَّهُۥ حَيَوٰةًۭ طَيِّبَةًۭ ۖ*
_Whoever does righteous actions whether male or female, while they are a believer, then indeed we shall grant them a good life._
[16:97]
_
We shouldn't attempt to fill our hearts with things that don't fulfil it!
Rather follow these two steps!
1. Believe in Allah ﷻ with certainty and sincerity
2. Do righteous actions with sincerity and hope
_
Many men & women, flirting with others often feel lonely and long for companionship!
And you find that their happiness is shattered when the object of their lust rejects them!
_
Many women remove the Hijab in order to feel happy by appearing beautiful, and find that their happiness dissolves because the people do not share the same sentiment.
_
The same with music! People use it as an emotional escape from the world and this happiness is shattered as soon as they return from that escape!
_
All of these become the punishment of a person and a source of torment!
Why?
Because the soul craves a connection to its creator!
Allah ﷻ!
_
Connect your heart to Allah! To His Book and His Prophet ﷺ!
Happiness will follow!
_
Abu Huraira رضي الله عنه reported: The Prophet ﷺ said:
_“Wealth is not in having many possessions. Rather, true wealth is the richness of the soul.”_
[Sahih al-Bukhārī 6081, Sahih Muslim 1051]
_
Shaytaan & Dunya brings restlessness and the want for more.
Allah ﷻ and the Akhirah brings peace and contentment!
As Allah ﷻ says:
*ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَتَطۡمَئِنُّ قُلُوبُهُم بِذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِۗ أَلَا بِذِكۡرِ ٱللَّهِ تَطۡمَئِنُّ ٱلۡقُلُوبُ*
_those who believe and whose hearts find comfort in the remembrance of Allah. Surely in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find comfort._
[13:28]
_
Ya Ibn Adam! If you want to feel peace at heart, divorce the Dunya and strive for the Akhirah!
_
*Reflect and Ponder.*
