True Comfort

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate

True comfort is the comfort of the soul. True comfort of the soul comes from Islam. The one who is guided to Islam is blessed with light from Allah. The Quran is a light. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam is a light. The one who turns away from Allah is an example of someone wandering aimlessly in the dark. His chest tightens and he cannot breathe with ease. He doesn't know where he is, where he is going, even if he knows he doesn’t see the impediments of falling in the dark. Islam is light -- you see where you are, who you are, you see the destination that is Jannah.

أَفَمَن شَرَحَ ٱللَّهُ صَدْرَهُۥ لِلْإِسْلَـٰمِ فَهُوَ عَلَىٰ نُورٍ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦ ۚ فَوَيْلٌ لِّلْقَـٰسِيَةِ قُلُوبُهُم مِّن ذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ فِى ضَلَـٰلٍ مُّبِينٍ ﴿٢٢

So is one whose breast Allah has expanded to [accept] Islam and he is upon a light from his Lord [like one whose heart rejects it]? Then woe to those whose hearts are hardened against the remembrance of Allah. Those are in manifest error. [Quran, Az-Zumar 39:22]

May Allah grant us His Light and true comfort. Aameen.

Allahumma salli 'ala Muhammad wa 'ala aalihi wa sahbihi wasallam.

And Allah knows best and is Most Wise, and He alone grants success, and to Him is the final return of all.

Wassalaam
