*A Message 4 You*
[[--- Part 29 ---]]------------------
بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم
Imagine a day the sun is right above your head. There is no water. No building. No shade. Everyone is running, looking for just one moment of coolness. But there is none. The heat is a punishment. On this day, we will all stand waiting for the proper judgment to start, but it will delayed seriously to the extent that SOME PEOPLE will cry and say "Oh Allah, even if it's hellfire you will take us to, please do that immediately because we are tired of standing under unbearable heavy heat."
This is the Day of Judgment.
On that day, Allah (swt) will call for a special group of people. He will say, “Come, enter My Shade.”
Who are they?
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “There are seven whom Allah will shade on a day when there is no shade but His...... one who spends in charity and hides it such that his right hand does not know what his left hand has given (that's nobody knows about it),..” 📚Source: Sahih al-Bukhari 660, Sahih Muslim 1031
The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) also said: “The believer's shade on the Day of Resurrection will be their charity,” 📚(Hadith, Tirmidhi).
Think about that.
Your only protection on that Day of unbearable heat and sweat will be the sadaqah you give EVERYDAY in this world, especially those sadaqah you give that even your family members did not know.
Servants of Allah,
In the religion of islam, what makes a servant of Allah RELIABLE is doing an act of worship consistently without missing.
Allah (swt) loves what you do again and again and again... Not just one time. And if you want Allah’s Shade on that day, then, you must make charity your habit. Every day. No missing. If you wait for a “good time” to give, you will wait forever.
My People,
Shaytan is not your friend. He is your enemy. Shaytan is very clever. He wants you to be like him (without shade) on that day.
Shaytan will whisper unto you: "Don't give today. Money is hard to get. The economy is bad. Your family needs every penny. Give something little instead. People are already giving, why would you worry yourself again? What if you need it later?"
That is Shaytan for you. He is lying to you. Yes. He makes you see only your empty pocket. He promises you that holding your money will make you safe. But he is stealing from your future. He is stealing your only shade.
*The Bitter Truth:*
If charity is not your habit, you are not from these people. On That Day, Allah (swt) will not call you to His Shade. He will call the ones who made it their practice.
When the heat is melting your skin, you will look for the charity you sent ahead. If you did not send it often, you will find nothing. Yes. You will stand in the open heat, while others are safe in the shadow of their good deeds.
Today, you worry about bills. On That Day, you will worry about your flesh burning off your bones.
Today, Shaytan tells you giving will make you poor, after all, your house rent and children school fees has not been paid. On That Day, you will see that NOT giving has made you burn.
The choice is simple but serious:
Fight the whisper. Give something, anything, every single day. In secret (preferably).
Give sadaqah frequently because that's the condition of being called to enter the shade of Allah (swt). Do it before that day you will be standing on that flat, bare land under the boiling sun, with nowhere to run.
