Slaves of Al-Hadi, Ar-Rashid

Assalaamu alaykum

Dear Friends

I pray that you are well.

Nothing really exist except for Allah, His Attributes and His Names. His slaves and His Kingdom are but His actions. Nothing He does is out of foolishness. Everything He does is correct.

Allah has no need for the righteousness of His slaves rather the slaves have a need to be righteous. He is not benefited by the worship of anyone but we have a need to worship Him.

Only Allah guides.

We should ask Allah until we develop a sense of right guidedness in everything.

وَكَفَىٰ بِرَبِّكَ هَادِيًا وَنَصِيرًا ﴿٣١ ...

... But sufficient is your Lord as a guide and a helper. (31)

[Qur'an Al-Furqan 25:31]

فَمَن يُرِدِ اللَّـهُ أَن يَهْدِيَهُ يَشْرَحْ صَدْرَهُ لِلْإِسْلَامِ ۖ وَمَن يُرِدْ أَن يُضِلَّهُ يَجْعَلْ صَدْرَهُ ضَيِّقًا حَرَجًا كَأَنَّمَا يَصَّعَّدُ فِي السَّمَاءِ ۚ كَذَٰلِكَ يَجْعَلُ اللَّـهُ الرِّجْسَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ ﴿١٢٥

So whoever Allah wants to guide - He expands his breast to [contain] Islam; and whoever He wants to misguide - He makes his breast tight and constricted as though he were climbing into the sky. Thus does Allah place defilement upon those who do not believe. (125)

[Qur'an Al-An'am 6:125]

قال حميد بن عبد الرحمن سمعت معاوية خطيباً يقول: سمعت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: ((من يرد الله به خيراً يفقهه في الدين، وإنما أنا قاسم والله يعطي، و لا تزال هذه الأمة قائمة على أمر الله لا يضرهم من خالفهم حتى يأتي أمر الله))

Hamid ibn Abdurrahman said, "I heard Mu'awiya say in a khutba, 'I heard the Prophet, Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, "When Allah desires good for someone, He gives him correct understanding in the deen. I am an even-handed distributor, but it is Allah who gives. This community will remain straight following the command of its Prophet, Allah bless him and grant him peace, and will not be harmed by those who oppose it until the command of Allah comes."'"

The sign of the guided is that one becomes intelligent. He flees to Allah. No demand comes to him. No issue comes up to him. No problem is raised except he races to Allah for solution. He seeks His guidance towards what benefit and being pleased with what He has chosen for him.

The intelligent person when he wakes up, he thinks to himself, "I wonder what Allah is going to do with me today." But the heedless person when he wakes up, he thinks to himself, "I wonder what I am going to be doing today."

Such is the slave of Al-Hadi, Ar-Rasheed.

May Allah guide us, our families, our teachers, our leaders and the Ummah. Ameen.

Please don't forget us in your night prayers. Jazakallahu khairan.

And Allah knows best.
Wassalaam
