THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a. 4th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Wednesday 28th December. 2022). *_ATTENTION, ALLAH IS CALLING_*. BismilLah.
ALLAH says in Qur'an 2:21-22
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ ٱعۡبُدُواْ رَبَّكُمُ ٱلَّذِى خَلَقَكُمۡ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبۡلِكُمۡ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَتَّقُونَ
O mankind! Worship your Lord (ALLAH), Who created you and those who were before you so that you may acquire Taqwa (ALLAH consciousness, by helping you to stay away from any form of disobedience to ALLAH).
ALLAH mentioned HIS Oneness in divinity and stated that HE has favoured HIS servants by bringing us to life after we did not exist.
HE also surrounded us with blessings, both hidden and apparent
In verse 22 ALLAH says;
ٱلَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ فِرَٰشًا وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بِنَآءً وَأَنزَلَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ مَآءً فَأَخۡرَجَ بِهِۦ مِنَ ٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ رِزۡقًا لَّكُمۡۖ فَلَا تَجۡعَلُواْ لِلَّهِ أَندَادًا وَأَنتُمۡ تَعۡلَمُونَ
Who has made the earth a resting place for you, HE made the earth a resting place for us, just like the bed, stable with the firm mountains. And the sky as a canopy, meaning, `a ceiling'. Similarly, ALLAH says in another Ayah,
وَجَعَلْنَا السَّمَأءَ سَقْفاً مَّحْفُوظاً وَهُمْ عَنْ ءَايَـتِهَا مُعْرِضُونَ
And ALLAH made the heaven a roof, safe and well-guarded. Yet they turn away from its signs (i.e. sun, moon, winds, clouds). (21:32)
وَأَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاء مَاء
And sends down for you water (rain) from the sky, meaning, through the clouds, when they need the rain.
فَأَخْرَجَ بِهِ مِنَ الثَّمَرَاتِ رِزْقاً لَّكُمْ
and brought forth therewith fruits as a provision for us.
Hence, ALLAH caused the various types of vegetation and fruits to grow as a means of sustenance for people and their cattle.
فَلَ تَجْعَلُواْ لِلّهِ أَندَاداً وَأَنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونََ
Then do not set up rivals unto Allah (in worship) while you know (that He alone has the right to be worshipped).
In an authentic hadith;
Narrated 'Abdullah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: I asked the Prophet (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wa Sallam), "What is the greatest sin in consideration with Allah?" He said, "That you set up a rival to Allah though He Alone created you." I said, "That is indeed a great sin." Then I asked, "What is next?" He said, "To kill your son lest he should share your food with you." I asked, "What is next?" He said, "To commit illegal sexual intercourse with the wife of your neighbour." [Sahih Al-Bukhari, 6/4477]. Allahu Akbar. *_May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from all satanic influences_*. Aameen.
