It has been a long time since i have posted anything on my blog and so today i decided i needed to share something with you guys, something uplifting inshaAllah ...Well, i hope so :)
Okay, so today on this beautiful wednesday afternoon, as i sit sipping away at my mango juice, i thought i'd talk to you guys about those times in your life when you feel all alone. Those times in your life when you feel unworthy, bullied, helpless and down in the dumps, as some may say. They are the times when you feel the world is against you and you feel that absolutely nothing can change the situatuion your in..
Those moments when your tears roll down you cheek, and you sit wiping them away, feeling all confused and lost, you feel the need to just hide away from the world and become invisible.
At the time you may be feeling peered and helpless, but what if i told you that in these times you're not alone. That Allah (swt) your Creator, the Most Merciful is by your side always. He knows the absolute pain your feeling, your broken heart and your every tear that falls from your eye..
HE knows how you're inner thoughts and He Allah (swt) is not going to leave you, it's about YOU knowing and acknowledging that in these moments in your life and also in times of ease, you need no one but HIM. Your Creator who knows you Best.
These hardships that occur in your life are either for you a test or a punishment, and how do you defentriate and know which one it is? If the calamity that befalls you brings you closer to Allah, it is a test and if it takes you away from Allah it is a punishment. However, do you know what the beautiful thing is, it is the fact that Allah (swt) is the Most Compassionate, He says in the Quran 'Call upon Me, I am Near' He wants you to call upon him, with your heart filled with humility and your eyes flowing with tears. That moment you turn to Allah you feel this numinous feeling you can't even describe by words, because your turning to you Lord the Most High, in such a humble heart- softening state! subhanAllah..
These times were not sent by Allah to break you but to make you that stronger person you are today. Each and everything a believer goes through is good for him. He is always in a win win situation. Believe in this!
Even something as small as being pricked by a thorn is expiation for you sins. IMAGINE IT. Imagine your sins falling away! Imagine being purified from filth! Imagine those black dots being removed from your hearts! WOW! This is a time of cleansing and purification of the heart, soul, body and mind!
YOU are getting reward for each moment of your patience and preservance. Just IMAGINE that reward and you will be able to see the beauty and wisdoms of what your going through inshaAllah.
Allah will take care of you and grant you not only heaps of hasanaat, but also a clean fresh mind and heart.
Hmm, so IMAGINATION. Something that Allah (swt) has blessed many of us with. If we didn't imagine then how would we think of those beautiful rewards that await us?
The ultimate reward; Jannahtul Firdaus.
When your feeling all low and stressed out, maybe its all these exams that are causing you to feel like 'You havn't got a life' or maybe someone in the family is extremely ill, then just carry on smiling away, because you have a chance to escape for a bit, take a break and imagine the blue clear skies, eternal boys like pearls at your service, beauiful women surrounding you, dresses of silk, bracelets of gold.. Imagine drinking froms the hand of the Prophet Muhamad (saw), or diving into a river of chocolate, or maybe swimming in an ocean of boost! Whatever it is, take a break and imagine the reward that awaits you, for your striving and struggling each day.
May Allah (swt) grant us all Sabr, and protect us from the evils around us, and grant us the ability to strive in His cause and for Islam, and make us amongst those who enter Jannah :) Aameen!
So thats all i have to say! :D
tc. Keep on Smiling!
