"O my soul, it is only a few days, bear them patiently.A lifetime seems long but a flitting reverie"

~Imam Shafi~
" “The heart will rest and feel relief if it is settled with Allah and it will worry and be anxious if it is settled with people.” – Ibn al-Qayyim"....Say : "This is my way; I invite unto Allah with sure knowledge, I and whosoever follows me with sure knowledge" (Qur'an - 12:108) "Say: we believe in God and in what has been revealed to us, and what was revealed to Abraham, Isma'il: Isaac, Jacob and The Tribes, and in (the Books) given to Moses, Jesus and the Prophets, from their Lord: We make no distinction between one and another, among them, and to God do we bow our will (in Islam)." (Qur'an, Al-Imran 3:84) . "And if he (Muhammad SAW) had forged a false saying concerning Us (Allah),We would have seized him by the right hand;And then certainly should have cut off his life artery (Aorta),And none of you could withhold Us from (punishing) him" (Qur'an,Al-Haqqah 69:44-47) "Do they not ponder the Quran! If it were revealed from a source other than Allah,certainly they would have found,many contradictions."[Holy Quran 4:82] " O man! Verily, you are returning towards your Lord with your deeds and actions (good or bad), a sure returning, and you will meet (i.e. the results of your deeds which you did)" [Holy Qur'an, 84:6] Say, "Is it other than Allah I should desire as a lord while He is the Lord of all things? And every soul earns not [blame] except against itself, and no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another. Then to your Lord is your return, and He will inform you concerning that over which you used to differ." ~Holy Quran 6:164 Imam Malik (rh): “Do not look to the sins of people as if you are Lords, but look to your own sins as if you are slaves. Have mercy on the people of affliction and praise Allah for your well-being, and never say, ‘This person is from the people of Hellfire, and this person is from the people of Paradise.’ Do not be arrogant over the sinners, but rather ask Allah to grant them hidayah and rashad (i.e. guidance).” Ibn Kathir (Ra) narrated: كان نقش خاتم عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه : كفى بالموت واعظاً ياعمر “The engraving on ‘Umar ibn al Khataab’s(Ra) ring was: “Sufficient is death as an admonisher O Umar”. ["Al-Bidaayah wan-Nihaaya]. "When you fear the creation, you run away from it, but when you fear the Creator, you feel close to Him,& run towards Him.".Ibn Qayyim . "Allahumma la‘aisha illa‘aish-al-Aakhirah": 'There is no life but the life of the next world' "And worship your Lord until there comes to you the certainty (i.e. death)". (Quran 15:99) “And those who strive for Us – We will surely guide them to Our ways.And indeed, Allah is with the doers of good.” [Quran: 29:69] "... And my success is not but through Allah . Upon him I have relied, and to Him I return." ~ Al Quran 11:88
"Nothing in this world is really useful to you unless it has some utility and value for the next world"-Imam Ali(R)

Muhammad ibn Waasi' asked: “If you see a man crying in Paradise,would you not be amazed at his crying?” He was answered in the affirmative. So he asked them again, “What is more amazing is he who laughs in this life, while utterly unaware where his final destination will be!” [Al-'Ihyaa].

If it's True

If it's True

“If your love is true, you would feel an aversion for anything that does not remind you of the one you love. How odd! Whoever claims to love and needs to be reminded of his beloved, then his love is not complete! The least thing that shows your love is that you never forget your beloved”~Ibn-ul-Qayyim

Hassan Al Basri (r) was sitting on the upper floor of a Masjid, reciting Qur’an. Introspecting about the past and musing on the Hereafter, his heart softened and tears gushed out from his eyes. When he looked, a few of tear drops fell on the person who was sitting downstairs. Looking to the top, he asked Hasan Al Basri: “ Is this clean water, brother?” The humble reply of Hasan Al Basri was thus: “Brother, go and clean your cloths. Those are the tears of a sinner.”

Xclusievely for Couples.

"Women like attention and they like to be told clearly that they are loved. Don’t be stingy in expressing your love for your wife. If you become limited in expressing your love, you will create a barrier of harshness between you and her, and there will be a decrease in affection." Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal Rahimahullah

And when you disobey God, you have wronged it.

Sincerity is a secret between Allah and His servant which not even the angels know so as to record it, nor does satan know so as to corrupt it, nor is the desire aware so as to influence it.~Junaid al-baghdadi

More than a fact

If Allah Wills it, nothing can prevent it. And if Allah doesn’t want it to happen, nothing can make it happen. If you’re meant to be with someone, you will be with them eventually, even if it seems impossible. And if you’re not meant for someone, no matter how hard you try, nothing will make it work. It’s all about trusting Allah to give you what’s best for you.

Cut the root instead of a branch.

Cut the root instead of a branch.
If the first inward thought is not warded off, it will generate a desire. The desire will generate a wish, the wish will generate an intention, the intention will generate an action, and the action will result in ruin, and divine wrath. So evil must be cut off at its root, which is when it is simply a thought that crosses the mind. 
~ Imam Al-Ghazali

A muslim should be bold in his aspiration, firm in his resolve, and not swayed from his goal by the blame of the blamers or the discouragement of the dicouragers. He should be generally tranquil, constantly in thought, and not be moved by the sweetness of a compliment or the pain of criticism.- Ibn al-Qayyim

Our graves will be of same size.

”No matter how big your house is, how flashy your car is or how expensive your clothes are, our graves are still going to be the same size” and remember that the heart is the seat of desires (both +ve & -ve). If one becomes slave to their desires (-ve), the result is nothing but chronic disappointment, distress and anguish. "Have you not seen the one who takes his desires as his god?" ( Al-Furqaan, 25:43.)

It is said, “Verily passion turns kings into slaves, and patience turns slaves into kings" Do you not see the story of Yusuf (pbuh) and Zulaykha.? The passion of the latter ruined her honor while the patience of Yusuf (pbuh) raised him to the greatest of heights both in terms of success and honor.

Tears of Taubah.

Tears of Taubah.

Sincere, heartfelt, deliberate repentance is the only thing that wipes out past disobediences to Allah, and it has to be accompanied by severe, humbling regret and remorse, coupled with seeking Allah’s pardon through dhikr (remembrance by the tongue), salah,sadaqah/charity, (preferably) crying or sobbing with tears of regret, and last but not least, rushing forth in obligatory and voluntary good deeds as compensation, to appease Allah’s wrath and attain His pleasure. Repentance, when sincere, can wipe out one’s past sins not just from one’s book of records, but also from the hearts, minds and memories of people who witnessed that sin.~Sister Sadaf Farooqi

Adam (pbuh) was the first man, and the first prophet. He was chosen by Almighty Allah.

Nor can goodness and Evil be equal. Repel (Evil) with what is better: Then will he between whom & thee was hatred become as it were thy friend & intimate! (41:34)

Hate cannot drive out hate, you need love to do that.

“The word “shams” (sun) is feminine, and “qamar” (moon) is masculine. The sun burns itself out to give light and life to everything around, and the moon is muneer, meaning it reflects the light. Within itself it has no light; it radiates the brilliance of the sun. So when we shine as men, the implication is that we are reflecting the glorious light of our women.” (Shaykh Abdullah Adhami)

Imam Ghazali Said:

Imam Ghazali Said:

If you see Allah, Mighty and Magnificent, holding back this world from you, frequently trying you with adversity and tribulation… Know that you hold a great status with Him. Know that he is dealing with you as He does with His ‘Awliya and chosen elite, and is watching over you. Have you not heard his saying, “So wait steadfastly for the judgment of your Lord - you are certainly before Our eyes.” [Surah At-Tur 52:48]

When it comes to my provisions, I rely upon Allaah, my Creator And I know with certainty that He will no doubt provide for me. Whatever’s in my due, will not pass me by, Even if it were to be in the depths of the sea. Allaah the Exalted will bring it forth by His Grace, Even if I were to remain silent over it.

If someone gave you a beautiful, expensive new hat, wouldn’t you be grateful for the generous gift? But shouldn’t you be even more grateful for the One Who gave you the head to put that hat on~Shaykh Muzaffer Ozak.

Do not despair and Do not give up.

Do not despair and Do not give up.

“If you give up when it’s winter, you will miss the promise of your spring, the beauty of your summer, fulfillment of your fall. Don’t let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest. Don’t judge life by one difficult season. Persevere through the difficult patches and better times are sure to come some time or later.”

Go easy on yourself for the outcome of all affairs is determined by god's decree.If something is meant to go elsewhere,it will never come your way, but if it is your's destiny, from you it cannot flee and when God desires good for anyone He blesses him with a sound intellect, makes knowledge (of Islam) beloved to him, bestows fear (of God) on him, makes gentleness his way, enriches him with contentment, and shows him his own faults.(Ibn Khattab)

Fudayl bin Iyyad said:"The believer speaks little, but does much. And the hypocrite talks a lot, but does little. The believer's speech is wisdom, his silence is contemplation, his gaze is pondering, his actions are righteous. So if this is your state, you shall perpetually be in worship."

Do not lose hope in adversity and complain that God singled you out for punishment, remitting others guilty of worse sins.

Thus your present despair may be beginning of an infinite blessing.

O Son of Adam!

O Son of Adam!

Do not be happy with richness and do not despair of  poverty. Do not feel sad during affliction and do not rejoice over prosperity, for just as gold is tried by fire, the pious are tried by affliction. You will not attain what you want except by giving up what you desire, and you will not attain what you aspire to except by enduring patiently what you hate, and exerting yourself in implementing that which has been made compulsory upon you (by Allah)."~Hazrat Ali (r)

Cooking LOVE

Cooking LOVE

"Hearts are like cooking pots. They will boil whatever is in them. And the scooping spoons of these pots are the tongue. Henceforth, look to a person whenever he speaks. For sure, his tongue will scoop up for you what is simmering in his heart: whether it’s (something) sweet or sour, fresh or stale." — [The Illness & the Cure by Ibnul Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah]

Peace in Prayer.

Peace in Prayer.

There are thoughts which are prayers. There are moments when, no matter what the posture of the body, the soul is on its knees.Oh my Lord, how great is Your mercy. How easy difficulties are, for Your sake! How wonderful is struggle, for Your pleasure! How sweet bitterness is to get near You.

Do you mock the supplication and belittle it? While you do not know what it has the power to do. The arrows of the night (dua) do not miss the target, but they have a set limit, which shall come to an end. So if my Lord wishes, He holds it back. And if the decree is to be fulfilled, He sets it forth.’- Imam Shafi ( I guess this was a response of the Imam to someone who belittled and looked down upon the dua of a worshiper).

Love, a fragile emotion yet most powerful.

"Love is neither disapproved by religion,nor prohibited by the law (shariah) ,for every heart is in Allah's hand." ~Ibn hazm. 

When someone falls in love, all rationale goes out of the window, all common sense is discarded, family ties are walked over and best friends suddenly have become the ‘enemy’. It is a truly desperate state of affairs. “Love” a fragile emotion yet so strong and profound that it takes control of our every sense. ~Abu esa.

"Love has certain signs which the intelligent man quick detects and the shrewd man readily recognizes.Of these the first is the brooding gaze:The eye is the widest gateway of the soul,the scrutinizer of its secrets,conveying its most private thoughst and giving expression to its deepest-hiddedn feelings. You will see the lover gazing at the beloved unblinkingly; his eyes follow the loved one's every moment, withdrawing as she withdraws, inclining as she inclines, just as the chameleon's stare shifts with the shifting of the sun"~Ibn hazam in his book Tawq al-Hamamah

Failure is success delayed.

Failure is success delayed.

When a person can't answer your questions directly, probably the answer is too painful for you to know or too hard for them to admit.One has to remeber that every failure can be a stepping stone to something better.

Life Long Love!

Life Long Love!

“A man came to the Prophet (SAW) and asked him “O Allah’s Messenger, tell me of something I do to win Allah’s love and people’s love”. The Prophet (SAW) answered “Do not love this world, Allah would love you and do not have a longing for whatever people have, people would love you”. (Ibn-Majah)

Trials are nothing but nature's teachers which teaches us the tough subjects of life which we harldy forget in the rest of our life.Trials teaches us what people cannot~Hamid.

Types of tears.

Types of tears.

Tears are of four types.They are tears of love,tears of fear,tears of hope and tears of pain.The best "cry", is the cry when you are all alone, weeping out of fear,hope and love of Allah.For just two tears can put up the fire of hell whereas the whole water of oceans cannot do so~Hamid.

Reason for loneliness...

Reason for loneliness...

People today feel loneliness because they are building walls instead of bridges.Life thrives on relationships.Get your relationships right with your creator and creations (relatives and neighbors) and you will get your life right.You only live once but if you did it right once is enough.~words of wise.

Luqman the most wise, said to his son: Dear son!

Heed the words.

Awaken, oh sleepy ones, awaken from your heedlessness. The akhirah awaits us, death is coming, our graves are ready and our judgment is impending. Our destinations are unknown, so we must strive ever more so towards a good end and race towards the Pleasure of Allaah. And let us heed the words of ‘Ali radiAllaahu ‘anhu, in which he said: “The world has departed behind you and ahead of you is the Hereafter. Both of them have children, so be the children of the Hereafter and do not be the children of this world. Today is the day of action with no judgment and tomorrow is the Day of judgment with no action” 

What's Love ?

What's Love ?

Love is the rank for which people compete; they long to learn about what it entails and they yearn to attain it; it is the provision for the hearts; the food of the souls; the joy of people's lives; the illumination of their minds; the foremost objective in life and the essence of existence. Love of Allaah is life itself, and to be deprived of it entails a terrible death; it is the light without which one would sail in a sea of darkness; it is the cure without which one's heart will be overwhelmed by a multitude of diseases; it is the joy without which one will remain in permanent grief; it is the essence of faith and deeds, without which they become like a soulless body.~Al Bousseeri.

Feelings are felt.

Words of Sheik Al-Arifi.

1) Indeed Allah has honored man,but this does not give him an excuse to oppress the rest of his creatures.(2) Treat people humanly,irrespective of their appearance,wealth and status.(3) Be like a bee that seeks out the scent and ignores the filth and do not be like a fly that sucks out the bloody wounds.(5) Perhaps just a smile at a poor man would raise you in rank in the sight of Allah.(6) A child is like soft clay that we shape according to our treatment of it.(7) Whoever consider exercising good manners as a worship will deal courteously with everyone, be he rich or poor, a manager or a tea-boy~Taken from his Internationally famous book 'Enjoy Your Life'

I have sent this small gift in appreciation. Please forgive me for not returning the favour in full.

O The most forgiving one,O you who loves to forgive, forgive us not, if there would be any decrease in the level of your forgiveness, upon forgiving us.

Turner of Hearts

Turner of Hearts

Anas (r) narrated that asking for a firm and obedient heart was one of the constant supplications of the Prophet (peace be upon him); and one narration from Umm Salamah states that the Du’a he made the most was: “Allahumma ya Muqallib Al-Quloob thabbit qalbi ‘alaa Deenik,” which means, “O Turner of the hearts, make my heart firm upon Your Religion.” There is, however, another authentic Du’a narrated in Sahih Muslim that isn’t as well-known: “Allahumma Musarrif Al-Quloobi Sarrif Quloobana ‘Ala Ta’atika,” which means, “O Allah, Turner of the hearts, direct our hearts to Your obedience.”

Check it!

Check it!

Look for your heart in three places: when listening to the Qur’an, when seeking knowledge (of Allah) and when in privacy. If you cannot find it in these places, then ask Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala (exalted is He) to bless you with a heart, for indeed you have no heart. — [ Abdullah Ibn Masood r.a.]

Harden Heart

Harden Heart

The slave is not afflicted with a punishment greater than the hardening of the heart and being distant from Allah. For the Fire was created to melt the hardened heart. The most distant heart from Allah is the heart which is hardened. If the heart becomes hardened, the eye becomes dry. If four matters are exceeded in quantity, beyond what is necessary, the heart shall become hardened: Food, sleep, speech and sexual intercourse. A body afflicted by disease does not derive nourishment from food or water, similarly a heart diseased by desire does not benefit from admonishment or exhortation.~Ibn Qayyim.

A thirsty man's thirst cannot be quenched off, If he just keep on walking down the river whole day,unless he drink from it.Then how can a man benefit from this book (Qur'an) if he just keep on reciting and listening to it without putting it in to practice.~Hamid.

Truly Allah the exalted, has imposed certain obligations, 'Do not abolish them; He has forbidden certain things, Do not violate them; He has laid down certain limits, Do not trangress them; He was silent about certain matters, out of 'MERCY' for you, not-forgetfulness... Do not seek after them.'~Hadith

Life is really Fair ...

Life is really Fair ...

Life is always fair, and the reason for that is the hereafter. For anyone who believes in the hereafter will realize that every hardship will hit a dead end. And that dead end will have a door, beyond the door is the reward. When one accepts fate, situations, hardships, pain, they have already passed 50% of the trial by accepting it. Then it’s about getting through it. Knowing that Allah is the only one who can give it and also clear us of it will make us turn to Him and then we will find is so much easier. What makes it hard is the fact that we think “life isn’t fair”, “why me?” “why do i deserve this?” etc. We are tiny tiny creations and we can NEVER question our Lord. - Br. Yasin

Do not be sad if you were born black and poor. It's not your mistake nor of your creator's, but it's just a matter of test for you and do not be proud of yourself if you were born white and rich.It's not your greatness nor of your father's, but it's just a matter of test for you too.Death will be the final measure of you both.Remember that neither every bounty is a blessing nor every pain is a punishment for Allah(swt) send some blessings as pain and some pain as blessings in disguised form.So Wipe your tears,think well of your Lord,and chase away your worries by remembering the blessings that Allah has bestowed upon you.Don't you think that this world is ever perfect for anyone . There is no one on the face of this earth who gets all what he wants or is free from all kinds of distress.~Inner voice.

One can be angry with anyone,that's easy; but to be angry with the right person,at the right time,to the right degree,for the right purpose and also in the right environment is not so easy and it's not within everybody's power.Expressing anger hurts others while supressing it, hurts you.So what's the solution? Transcending it, is the only solution.It's a feeling which makes your mouth work faster than your mind~Hamid.

"Seek knowledge because seeking it for the sake of Allah is a worship. And knowing it makes you more God fearing; and searching for it is jihad, teaching it to those who do not know is charity, reviewing and learning it more is like tasbeeh.

My personal experiences suggest that by constantly pressurising a child and by constantly telling him where he is wrong,you only dent his self-image.This approach does not make anybody better.It only make them worse.Encouraging the positive side of a person,appreciating even the slightest of improvements in him, a soft hand on his shoulders, a gentle pat on his back, and little words of motivation will be the sure fireways to support any child.With this approach,even if the changes are slow,they will be lasting,permanent changes.~Voice of love

Reading opens the mind,guides one to correct morals and sharpen's one's ability to think.Reading is a comfort for the lonely,a stimulant for the thinker and a lamp for the traveller.He who cannot read good books has no advantage over him who cannot read.-Dr Aidh-al-Qarni

Irrefutable Truth

Irrefutable Truth

Know that Allah has made Islam the most sublime path for attainment of his supreme pleasure and the highest standards of his worship and obedience.He has favoured it with noble precepts,exalted principles,undoubtable arguments,unchallengable supremacy and undeniable wisdom.It is up to you to maintain the eminence and dignity granted to it by the lord,to follow it sincerly,to do justice to its articles of faith and belief,to obey implicity its tenets and orders and to give it the proper place in your lives.-Ali(r).

The biggest wonder of the world.

The biggest wonder of the world.

Be careful not to make a woman cry, because Allah (SWT) counts her tears. A woman came out not from man's feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior over, but from his side to be equal, under the arm to be protected and next to the heart to be loved.

Human Nature

Human Nature

It is human nature to be forgetful, as the Arab poet said:“He is only called man (insaan) because of his forgetfulness (nasiyaan), and it is only called the heart (al-qalb) because it changes so rapidly (yataqallib).”In the past they said that the first one to forget (awwal naasin) was the first man (awwal al-naas), meaning Adam, peace be upon him.Forgetfulness is something that varies from person to person according to each individual’s nature; some may be more forgetful than others.
