 A Gift For You

[[- Episode 3 -]]

بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم

Haven't you heard that the same devil or shaytan who tricked our grandfather (Prophet Adam) and he was sent out of the Jannah have not surrendered his weapon?.. The same shaytan is still the one tricking all the descendants of Prophet Adam (a.s.) to dislike every deeds that will earn them Allah s mercy.

My People,

In one time or the other, we have committed some sins in the past, the sins that if we remember, we become ashamed of ourselves, we become worried - as whether we will get Allah's mercy on the day of judgement or not.

It is recommended to seek forgiveness a lot, and to repent sincerely every time the sin comes to one’s mind. If we practice this, then, we have no cause to worry about our past sins. Yes. This is why the prophet (PBUH) said:

*“Everyone from my nation will enter Paradise but those who refuse.” They said, “O Messenger of Allah, who will refuse?” The Prophet said, “Whoever obeys me enters Paradise, and whoever disobeys me has refused.”* 📚Source: S‌ah‌i‌h‌ al-Bukha‌ri‌ 7280

My people!

The Hadīth above gives good news to the righteous people in this Ummah that they all will enter Paradise except those who disobey Allah and His Messenger.

Now,

Sincerity in our repentance is the key. And sincerely in repentance is achieved when a repentant quits the sin exclusively for the sake of Allah (swt), aspiring for His forgiveness and seeking to earn His pleasure and escape His punishment, as opposed to quitting a sin for a worldly reason.

Remember,

Al-Bukhari recorded from Anas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said:

"Three things follow the deceased person, and two of them return while one remains behind with him. The things which follow him are his family, his wealth and his deeds. His family and his wealth return while his deeds remain.📚 This Hadith has also been recorded by Muslim, At-Tirmidhi and An-Nasa'i.
