Relating to Allah

Salam, 121859926_5601ab85b1.jpg

Where is Allah in your life? This is a question we should deeply reflect on everyday as we get nearer to the day of our departure. To get even more specific like the pacific, are we praying 5 times a day? Are you making supplication? We often wonder what can we do for Allah or how can we increase our rank on the day of judgement. The truth is we need to increase our eman. yes we need an eman rush and honestly we can do everything for the sake of Allah. Remember our deen is not compartmentalized. Meaning its not a subway sandwich, you can’t customize it, its either the 12 foot sandwich tuna or its nothing. No haram sandwiches, and if your breath is kicking remember cleanliness is half of your eman. Back to the message, We have to learn to be conscious of this motive, this level of remembrance.

But where does this eman rush come from? it sure doesn’t come from russia. It comes from our heart, and the biggest claim which we all make saying We love Allah, We love all the beloved Prophets, its just all talk until its consistently driven into our actions, Why? because if you love Allah and you love the Prophets, then why don’t you do what they say. See its all relative. If you told your wife in the brothers case, (sisters obviously its the opposite scenario) so lets say you claim you love your spouse and when your spouse is in need of something or is sick and you don’t help them. Then that’s just lip service. Understand? Basically you must act upon what you speak, in other words practice what you preach.

See time is limited, our destination is the hereafter. We are not here to worship money, to worship the dunya, we are here simply to carry on the message of those believers before us, those before them, eventually leading back to our beloved prophets. It’s really not that complicated. It comes down to prayer, it comes down to good character, patience, and most of all reading the Holy Quran. Not harry potter! well read what you feel is right, but the word of God Almighty is the truth, and if you don’t know already. The quran will either be used for you, or against you on the day of judgment.

So do you have Islam inside, or shaytan inside? let me tell you something about the devil, all he can do is whisper into your ears. Once that happens, you have to use your intellect to choose between right and wrong. Act like humans, not like demons as Shaykh Hamza Yusuf Hanson al Maliki says. The main thing which we have to establish in our Hearts is Tawhid. We don’t submit to anything else except to the Will of God Almighty, and that is what makes us the caretakers of earth. We have to restore peace, we have to restore stability, we have elevate ourselves.

Alright thats about it my brothers and sisters.

Al Hasan Al Basri used to say ” Do not be like the one who studies like a scholar but likes a fool”

Muhmmad b Al Munkadir used to say ” I love to see the brothers being at their very best during the night (in humble devotion) for surely that is nobler than being at ones very best during the day. The reason for this is that during the day one is seen by people while during the night one is seen by the Lord of the Worlds”

Something seriously to think about. Inshallah we will meet again. Wasalaam peace.
