The Stab

 The Stab

~~~

A friend of mine stabbed me in the back. Do you know why he was successful? Bcos i trusted him so well. The stab wound lasted many years. It left me not only a scar at the back, but also a scar in my heart and my soul. 

Now let me warn you... There is no permanent enemy or friend in this life. Even your own mother could become your enemy. Are you shocked? Hear these stories :

A friend of mine once reached out to me. He sounded as if someone was on his back with a knife. I said bro calm down, he said how could i, when my own mother is planning to kill me. I said what! 😳

It turned out his best friend whom he used to take home to feed and host, was having xxx with his mother. So he found out. One evening he went home only to find out that the mother and the friend were planning on poisoning him, to prevent their affair from getting out. That gentle soul had to run away from them and he never return till now. 

In early 2018, a girl contacted our charity program seeking help. Her father sold her to a cult and she was dying.

Those are just two amongst billions of stories on betrayal.

Here are two rules to follow:

1. Dua, dua, dua, dua is very important. If you are regular and constant, Allah will InshaAllah shield 🛡 you from enemies within and enemies from outside, including the enemies inside your body.

2. Sadaqa, sadaqa, sadaqa, always give sadaqa, if possible daily, nothing is less. Give food, money, a piece of date. For wallahi, sadaqa is one of the defences against every form of evil.

3. Blessing of parents. If your parents are alive, always ask them to make dua for you and do things to them which will make them do dua for you. The Prophet says, there is no hijab (barrier) between Allah and the dua. 

4. Trusting more than necessary. Don't give your trust 100%. Give less than 30%. And always have one leg in, one leg out, meaning, don't feel so comfortable.

5. Be honest in your dealings. Allah loves those who are honest, Allah loves those who have good intentions toward others. If your intentions are good, you will always be favoured by Allah. And He Almighty will protect you from your own self in case you miss.

6. Lastly, love people for Allah's sake only. If you do that, Allah will love you, and if He loves you, you automatically get protection.

May Allah protect us from evil, known and unknown. May Allah give us an upper hand over anyone with negativity towards us. May Allah make our enemies frustrated, so that they never have peace of mind. Amin ya rabb.
