Overflowing With Love

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

Dear Friends

I pray that you are well.

Allah has not only created men, but "made their joints strong", i.e. given men the power and strength to withstand the temptations of evil and stand firmly on the right.

"It is We Who created them, and We have made their joints strong; but, when We will, We can substitute the like of them by a complete change." Qur'an Al-Insan 76:28

But some people misuse their powers or willfully disobey Allah's law. They reject, or at least put away the thought of a Hereafter, a Day that will be difficult, for the easy pleasures of a fleeting life.

"Verily, man is ungrateful to his Lord; And to that he bears witness (by his deeds); And verily, he is violent in the love of wealth. Knows he not that when the contents of the graves are poured forth (all mankind is resurrected)?" Qur'an Al-Adiyat 100:8

And Allah knows best.

May Allah make us among those who are overflowing with their love for Allah. Please don't forget us in your night prayers. Jazakallahu khairan.

Wassalaam

Guilty

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

Assalaamu alaykum

Dear Friends

I pray that you are well.

Everyday we are guilty of something and they are huge but we care less to reflect and repent. We cant' reflect because we are too busy with this world--enjoying its pleasures or running after it--the have and the have not alike, the rich and the poor alike. And that is what make us guilty everyday. Then when something goes terribly wrong, we complain. Now we are piling more charges against ourselves.

You have a duty to know and to believe that Allah gives and Allah takes, Allah causes benefit and harm. Everything Allah does cannot be better and more perfect. When He say "Be" and it is. So why do we not choose Him; why do we not have Him in our lives in every moment of our lives; why do we not keep company and deal with Him, why do we neglect our duties to Him?

May Allah guide us to excellence. Ameen. Please don't forget me in your night prayers. Jazakallahu khairan. Barakallahu feekum.

And Allah knows best.

Wassalaam
