*A Message 4 You*
[[--- Part 31 ---]]------------------
بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم
Listen. The Day is coming.
On that Day, there will be no shade. No trees. No buildings. No clouds. Only the sun, one mile above our heads. The heat will melt people. Their sweat will drown them.
But Allah (swt), in His Mercy, says He will give shade. His own Shade. Only to special people.
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. They are a just ruler, a youth who grew up in the worship of Allah, one whose heart is attached to the mosques, two who love each other for the sake of Allah, a man who is tempted by a beautiful woman of high status but he rejects her, saying , ‘I fear Allah,’ and 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), and one who remembered Allah in private and he wept.” 📚Source: Sahih al-Bukhari 660, Sahih Muslim 1031
Now,
The last group of persons according to the above hadith is one who remembered Allah in private and he wept.
Just that.
He remembers his Lord, his sins, his life, and tears fall from his eyes. That tear buys him Allah’s Shade.
My People,
Every sin is like mud. You tell a lie—mud on your heart. You look at what is haram—more mud. You miss a prayer intentionally—mud. You gossip, you cheat—mud, mud, mud.
At first, you feel bad if you commit a sin. Then you feel less. Then you feel nothing (if you did not give up the sin).
The mud gets hard. The heart of that person will now look like a stone. A stone heart cannot cry out of the fear of Allah (swt). It is dead inside.
On That Day, Allah (swt) will not shade a stone. Allah (swt) shades a living, soft, crying heart.
My People,
Do you remember the last time you cried out of the fear of Allah? A real tear, from shame, from the love you have for Allah?, from fearing Allah? That tear was a sign of life. Yes. It was a soft heart.
And if you cannot remember the last time you cry out of the fear of Allah, then, that is the first warning. If you feel no shame reading this, that is the danger sign. The mud is hardening.
Allah (swt) say: "You see their eyes overflowing with tears because of what they have recognized of the truth." 📚Al-Ma'idah 5:83
You see!
Just for remembering or fearing Allah (swt) and crying. And listen to this safety again:
“A person who cries from the fear of Allah will not enter Hell, just like milk will never go back into the udder.” 📚(At-Tirmidhi)
Milk never goes back into the udder. It is impossible. So is Hell for that person.
But our sins are stealing this from us. They are taking our soft heart. They are taking our chance for that shade. They are taking our safety from the Fire.
My People,
Allah (swt) gave you everything. Your life, your health, your family. And in return, you give Him disobedience. You choose the haram music, the dirty so-called movies, the forbidden looks, the habit of patronising fortunetellers. You turn away when countless people are waking up for Tahajjud prayer.
My People,
Leave one sin or more today. Just one or two or three. The ones that you know is covering your heart with mud. Leave it for Allah (swt).
