Lost and Found

Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem
Assalammualaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

All praise to Allah for the blessings He bestows us. I was talking to my colleague at work,and she shared with me a few of her life experiences. After sitting and reflecting on what she had told me, and what she sincerely want in life, I realize that in every soul, there is a thirst to know more about Allah, to be closer to Him, just to feel the sweetness of iman that quenches one's dry heart and soul. But, due to the impurities that engulfed the heart as human grow, it becomes difficult - to admit to oneself that one needs Allah and follow what Allah had delineated in the Quran and what the prophet (pbuh) had modeled.

I remembered when Allah Guided me to the people who strive for jannah and I sincerely missed those moments. The moment when everything was new and fresh, where the words of Allah and reminders permeates the air and you drank it like it was liquor. Feeling as if you will be drunk on the words but you feel more alive, your heart clears up all the clogged blood vessels and pumps fresh and satisfying drink from the fountain of iman and knowledge.

Those were the days and now is the time to practice.
And I tell you, it is not easy.

And to note, those people were still around
And still do what they do best
Spreading knowledge & iman

Seek sincerely and you will be Found

When you purify your hearts just as you purify your garment, union with God will follow. If you sincerely seek union with God, then seek Him inside your hearts and leave the world alone
[Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani]

Wallahua'lam
All praise be to Allah, Lord of the world

Being Muslims

Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem
Assalammualaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

How beautiful is the akhlaq of true muslims?


Alhamdulillah for the blessing of islam & iman

When muslims are in need, they enjoined in sadaqah
When muslims are oppressed, they pray for their oppressor & corrects him
When muslims see another muslim's shame, they hide it
When muslims see corruption, they stop it by their hand, tongue and heart
When muslims are in pain, they are thankful to Allah
When muslims are in happiness, they are still thankful to Allah
When muslims sit by themselves, they reflect on their deeds & Allah
When muslims do their work, the end is in Allah's hand
When muslims smile, it is sadaqah
When muslims give presents, it is for brotherhood for the sake of Allah
When muslims travel, they invoke to Allah at all time
When muslims seek for knowledge, they seek it first from Allah
When muslims found a teacher, they make du'as for the teacher
When muslims learn about others' pain, they make du'as for them & help them
When muslims feel that they are betrayed, they repent to Allah

But one might wonder
Why did a muslim do all these deeds?
How did a muslim know about the benefits of all these deeds?
What are the benefits of all these deeds?

Seek knowledge of the hereafter
Learn the Quran
Study the Hadeeth
Discover the truth

That this life is for rent
And in any moment
You can be taken away from it
For the Final Judgement
So, like true muslims
Let's be prepared to be judged by Allah, The Most High

Subhanallah walhamdulillah lailahailallah wallahu akbar

Wallahua'lam
All praise be to Allah, Lord of the world

Tiada Tandingan

Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem
Assalammualaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

I read a blog by a muslima in the US and I am jealous that a nasheed by Raihan (asolatu wa-salam) managed to touch her heart before she embraced islam (in the will of Allah). She even included it in the blog! Masha Allah tabarakallah! I bet the singers from Raihan doesn't even realize or know about this but they did it. Subhanallah. Imagine, the barakah & the blessings that Allah bestows of a person who are able to call another to islam.

The Prophet (sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) has said: "Whoever guides [another] to a good deed will get a reward similar to the one who performs it." [Saheeh Muslim] Also, "By Allah, if Allah were to guide one man through you it would be better for you than the best type of camels (better than the world and what is in it)."

[Hadith al-Bukharee, Muslim]

Those who fulfill the Covenant of Allah and sail not in their plighted word; those who join together those things, which Allah has commanded to be joined, hold their Rabb in awe, and fear the terrible reckoning. Those who patiently persevere seeking the countenance of their Rabb; establish regular prayers; spend (out of the gifts) what We have bestowed for their sustenance, secretly and openly; and turn off Evil with good: for such there is the final attainment of the (Eternal) Home Gardens of perpetual bliss. They shall enter there, as well as the righteous among their fathers, their spouses, and their offspring: and angels shall enter unto them from every gate (with the salutation): ‘Peace unto you for that you persevered in patience!’ Now how excellent is the final Home!’

[ar-Ra'd:20-24]

Priceless


Breathtaking? Heaven's way better!

And the key to attain this is through sincerity, sacrifice & patience

P/S: Dear brothers and sisters, this is a website that provides nasheed from the likes of Maher Zain, Sammi Yusuf and they even have Talib al-Habib's Songs of Wayfarer! Talk about blessings! Alhmdulillah wa syukrillah.

Mama

Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem
Assalammualaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu

She carried you in her womb for 9 months
She gave birth to you in great pain
She took care of you when you are weak
She prays for you when you are all grown up
She never stops

O'Allah, please take care of her

Now I really understand why mothers are special
Subhanallah walhamdulillah

Wallahua'lam
