"Relief After Hardship: Allah's Promise"

Image
  Allah's Promise Do not lose hope in Allah's mercy. Do not be disheartened by your situation or thoughts. For anyone who is waiting for good times, Allah has promised that good times will indeed come. Allah says, with every hardship, there is relief. Allah, who has sent the hardship, will also send the relief. Therefore, let things unfold as they should. If you feel hopeless about your situation, do not lose hope in Allah's mercy. Time passes, but try to understand what Allah is trying to teach you right now and find the purpose of your life. A beautiful prayer from Hazrat Wasif Ali Wasif (RA): "Who created me, grant me rebirth. I have bloodied my life with my own hands. O Allah, consider this as Your life and breathe life into it once again." (Amen) Surah Ash-Sharh (94:5-6): فَإِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْرًا "Indeed, with hardship comes ease." Hadith (Sahih Muslim): إِنَّ اللَّهَ إِذَا أَحَبَّ عَبْدًا ابتَلاه "Indeed, when Allah loves a servant, He ...

"Welfare of Humanity: Islamic Teachings"

Image
  Islamic Teachings   "‘ Live and let live ’—this is a deplorable saying, which is purely a reflection of selfishness. This saying cannot belong to a good person or a Muslim. Our Prophet (PBUH) always thought of others before himself. Our companions (Sahabah) were individuals of great character, who prioritized the welfare of society over their own safety. If I say, 'Live and let live,' I am essentially speaking of selfishness and neglecting humanity. Islam teaches us to stand in sympathy with others in their suffering. Our responsibility is not just to save ourselves, but to work for the welfare of humanity." Surah Al-Baqarah (2:195)   وَأَنفِقُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَلا تُلْقُوا بِأَيْدِيكُمْ إِلَى التَّهْلُكَةِ وَأَحْسِنُوا إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُحْسِنِينَ "Spend in the cause of Allah, and do not throw yourselves with your own hands into destruction. And do good; indeed, Allah loves the doers of good."   Hadith - Sahih Muslim (Hadith No. 2589)   لا ي...

"The Inescapable Reality of Death: Peace for the Believer by Allah's Will"

Image
 "The Inescapable Reality of Death" "Muslims do not fear death because they understand that it is an inevitable part of life. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said, 'This world is a prison for the believer, where true happiness is never permanent.' The world never provides lasting happiness; instead, people face various challenges—whether physical, mental, financial, or relational. However, when death arrives, it brings a message of joy for the believer. Death marks the beginning of a path that leads them to paradise. It is a gateway through which they leave behind life's trials and enter eternal peace." "Assurance of Paradise After Death" The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: "When a believer dies, he is freed from all his suffering and enters Paradise." (Sahih Muslim) The Certainty of Life After Death Allah (SWT) says: "Wherever you may be, death will overtake you, even if you are in fortified towers." (Surah An-Nisa, 4:78) "أ...

The Consequences of Oppression

Image
The Fall of the Tyrant: Allah’s Wrath   There is no tyrant in the history of the world who has not faced the consequences of his tyranny. Many tyrants have come and oppressed people through their cruelty. Nimrod, Abu Jahl, Utbah, Shaybah—these all committed tyranny, and they ruled over the world with their oppression. But Allah Almighty humiliated all of them, exposed their true nature, and punished them. Allah has said: "I give them respite, but when I seize, My grasp is very strong, and there is no way to escape from it." Tyranny is such a crime that anyone, whether a Muslim or a non-Muslim, can commit it against anyone else. If a Muslim oppresses a Hindu, or if a pious person oppresses a non-pious person, Allah's help will be with the oppressed. Whether the oppressed is a Muslim or a non-Muslim, Allah never tolerates oppression. Therefore, it is our responsibility to ensure that we never commit injustice or oppression against others. Because Allah is always watching us...

"Trust in Allah: Death and Sustenance Are in His Hands"

Image
Trust in Allah   Death follows a person, and no one can escape it. Just as death seeks you, similarly, your livelihood (rizq) seeks you. A person will live as long as their sustenance reaches them. But the question is: Why does a Muslim worry so much about their livelihood? A Muslim's tawakkul (trust) is solely placed in Allah. The fears that arise, the thoughts that disturb the mind—"What will happen tomorrow? How will I get married? How will I manage expenses?"—all of these come from Shaytan. Muslims should be clear in their minds that these worries are created by Shaytan, whose aim is to weaken our resolve. We must place our trust in Allah and remember that He is the one who decides our sustenance and future. Rizq (sustenance) and Trust in Allah: It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Whoever places their trust in Allah, Allah will fulfill their needs, just as a bird leaves in the morning with an empty stomach and retu...

  The Only Path to Success and Peace If you always keep thinking, "If only this thing was there, I would be happy. If that problem went away, if that person left my life, my life would be much better!"—this is how we think every day. We imagine, "If something happened, like the bus colliding, then life would be much better." We often tell ourselves, "If only that person or problem went away, life would be beautiful." Or, "If this sorrow went away, everything would be perfect." This is how we usually think—if people changed, if the situation changed, if the environment changed, life would be so much better. But the reality is, all of these things will change one day, but will they truly bring happiness? If we think a little deeper, we will realize that everything is ultimately weak. Allah tells us, "Know that you are weak, weaker than a fly." When Allah says this, we should think—how weak are we really? If we reflect carefully, we will u...
