One Straight Path

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

In Surah At-Takwir, Allah Most High is reminding us to follow the Straight Path. Whoever wants to will go there and you will find the way if Allah wills you to find it. Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says,

وَمَا صَاحِبُكُم بِمَجْنُونٍ ﴿٢٢﴾ وَلَقَدْ رَآهُ بِالْأُفُقِ الْمُبِينِ ﴿٢٣﴾ وَمَا هُوَ عَلَى الْغَيْبِ بِضَنِينٍ ﴿٢٤﴾ وَمَا هُوَ بِقَوْلِ شَيْطَانٍ رَّجِيمٍ ﴿٢٥﴾ فَأَيْنَ تَذْهَبُونَ ﴿٢٦﴾ إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا ذِكْرٌ لِّلْعَالَمِينَ ﴿٢٧﴾ لِمَن شَاءَ مِنكُمْ أَن يَسْتَقِيمَ ﴿٢٨﴾ وَمَا تَشَاءُونَ إِلَّا أَن يَشَاءَ اللَّـهُ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ ﴿٢٩

And Muhammad is not a withholder of [knowledge of] the unseen. (24) And the Qur'an is not the word of a devil, expelled [from the heavens]. (25) So where are you going? (26) It is not except a reminder to the worlds (27) For whoever wills among you to take a right course. (28) And you do not will except that Allah wills - Lord of the worlds. (29)

Where else are you going to go if you are not going to follow the Quran and the teachings of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. What other alternative is there? There is only one path to live a decent, dignified life and save yourself, that is Islam.

May Allah guide us on the Straight Path. 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

    I've just discovered your blog. It seems interesting and very informative. May Allah the Most Merciful reward you with much good in both worlds for generously sharing your knowledge of Islam, and guide you to the best of deeds that lead us to Jannatul Ferdaus. Ameen.
