Bismillah
Remembrance of Allah (dhikr) transforms the aching heart into a calm and tranquil heart, by Allah's mercy.
أَلَا بِذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ تَطْمَئِنُّ ٱلْقُلُوبُ ﴿٢٨﴾
Unquestionably, by the remembrance of Allah hearts are assured. (Quran, Ra'd 13:28)
The best forms of remembrance are prayers and reciting the Qur'an.
Dhikr protects us, guides us, and changes our outlook on life. It gives us the strength to move forward beyond our painful tests because we know Allah is there as we recite the Quran or say SubhanAllah (Glory be to Allah), Alhamdulillah (Praise and thanks be to Allah), la ilaha illa Allah (There is no god worthy of worship but Allah), and Allahu Akbar (Allah is greater). It is a constant reminder that life is nothing but a journey to a better home.
This life is all about our dedication to constantly remembering Allah, thanking Him, and seeking beautiful patience, for us and for those around us. Its trusted companion is du'a: to seek His aid in times of both ease and hardship.
May Allah make us among the people of His remembrance. Ameen.
Allahumma salli 'ala Muhammad wa 'ala aalihi wa sahbihi wasallam.
