•• {And whoever believes in Allah , He will guide his heart.} (64:11)

وقال أبو عثمان الجيزي : من صح إيمانه يهد الله قلبه لاتباع السنة Abu uthman Al ji'zi رحمه الله said : Whoever rectifies his belief, Allah will guide his heart to follow the sunnah.

وقال ابن عباس : هو أن يجعل الله في قلبه اليقين ليعلم أن ما أصابه لم يكن ليخطئه , وأن ما أخطأه لم يكن ليصيبه Ibn Abbas رضي الله عنه said : "Allah will guide his heart to certainty. Therefore, he will know that what reached him would not have missed him and what has missed him would not have reached him." Subhan Allah.

-Tafseer Al qurtubi.

°° فَإِنَّ الطَّيِّبَ لَا يُنَاسِبُهُ إِلَّا الطَّيِّبُ وَلَا يَرْضَى إِلَّا بِهِ ، وَلَا يَسْكُنُ إِلَّا إِلَيْهِ ، وَلَا يَطْمَئِنُّ قَلْبُهُ إِلَّا بِهِ ... "

"Indeed, the pure is only suited for the pure and is only content with it, and does not find tranquility except in it, and the heart is only reassured by it..."

زَاد_الْمَعاد | صـ65

Do you have a secret good deed with Allah? Something that is only between you and Him? Do you have any charity that you give secretly, that no one knows except Allah? There are stories that will not be revealed, except in your book of deeds when you meet Allah. You truly deserve that, through this, your status becomes higher near to Allah. Ibn al-Jawzi رحمه الله said : By Allah, I have seen one who is abundant in praying, fasting, and exhibiting silence while displaying humility in himself and his dress. Yet the hearts [of the people] turn away from him, and his status amongst them is not all that! And I have seen one who attires himself in fancy clothes, does not perform an abundance of voluntary acts [of worship], nor does he make a show of humility, yet the hearts go one after another in feeling love for him. So I reflected on the reason [for this], and I realized it was because of those actions that are kept hidden from others. صيد الخاطر (٣٥٥)

We should have some hidden good deeds that no one knows about except Allah. When Allah rewards those deeds on the Day of Judgment in front of people, others will feel amazed and wish they had done the same, wondering what actions earned such a great reward.

AL IMAAM ASH SHAYKH RABEE BIN HAADI رحيمه الله SAID: "Indeed the meaning of steadfastness upon the sunnah, is steadfastness upon Islaam in its entirety: its foundations; its branches; the aqeedah and the manhaj. We are steadfast upon it and cling tight to it until we meet Allah tabaaraka wa ta'aala." AL-WASAAYA AL-MANHAJIYYAH PG. 7

Imam Abu Hazim Salamah bin Dinar رحمه الله was once asked: “O Abu Hazim! Do you not see how much prices have increased (how expensive things have become)?” He replied: “Why are you worried about that? Indeed, the One (Allah) who provided for us during times of ease will also provide for us during times of hardship.” (Hilyat al-Awliya 3/239)

Think about it: The provision (rizq) whose responsibility Allah Himself has taken, we are exhausting ourselves worrying about it. Meanwhile, the matter of the Hereafter is extremely serious — it is where our eternal success or failure will be decided — yet we remain heedless of it. Let us correct our priorities.

«إذَا أردتَ شيئًا تُحِبُّه ، فَلا تعصِ اللّٰهَ فِي الوصُولِ إليهِ ؛حتَّىٰ لا يكونَ سببًا فِي حِرمانِكَ مِنهُ ، فإنَّ مَا عندَ اللّٰهِ لا يُدرَكُ بِمعَصيتِه»

"If you desire something you love, do not disobey Allah in reaching it, so that it does not become a reason for you to be deprived of it. For what is with Allah cannot be attained through disobedience."

•• { لَهُم الْبُشْرَى فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَفِي الْآخِرَةِ‏}‏ "For them are Good tidings in this worldly life and in the Hereafter." أما البشارة في الدنيا، فهي‏:‏ الثناء الحسن، والمودة في قلوب المؤمنين، والرؤيا الصالحة، وما يراه العبد من لطف الله به وتيسيره لأحسن الأعمال والأخلاق، وصرفه عن مساوئ الأخلاق‏.‏

As for the good tidings in this world, they include: praise and good reputation among the believers, sincere affection in their hearts, righteous dreams, and witnessing Allah's kindness towards facilitating the good deeds and morals while diverting one from bad character traits.

وأما في الآخرة، فأولها البشارة عند قبض أرواحهم، كما قال تعالى‏:‏ ‏{‏إِنَّ الَّذِينَ قَالُوا رَبُّنَا اللَّهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَقَامُوا تَتَنَزَّلُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ أَلَّا تَخَافُوا وَلَا تَحْزَنُوا وَأَبْشِرُوا بِالْجَنَّةِ الَّتِي كُنْتُمْ تُوعَدُونَ‏}‏ وفي القبر ما يبشر به من رضا الله تعالى والنعيم المقيم‏.‏ وفي الآخرة تمام البشرى بدخول جنات النعيم، والنجاة من العذاب الأليم‏

In the Hereafter, the first glad tidings come at the moment of death, as Allah says: "Indeed, those who say, 'Our Lord is Allah' and then remain steadfast—the angels will descend upon them, [saying], "Do not fear and do not grieve but receive good tidings of Paradise, which you were promised."(41:30). In the grave, there will be glad tidings of Allah's pleasure and eternal bliss. In the Hereafter, the completion of glad tidings will be entering the Gardens of Delight and being saved from the severe punishment.

- السعدي

يا أهل قيام الليل جدّوا.. رب داعِ لا يُردُّ.. ليس شيءٌ كصلاة الليل للقبر يُعدُّ.

"O people of the night prayers, be diligent... For there is a supplicant whose prayers are not rejected... Nothing is like the night prayer in preparing for the grave."

أُحسِنُ الظَّنَّ بـ "القدير"، وأدعو..

"I have a good opinion of 'the All-Powerful,' and I pray...

مَن إذا قال: "كُنْ" لشيءٍ… يَكُونُ

He who, when He says 'Be' to something, it happens.

كلُّ حُزنٍ -إذا رَضِيتَ إلَٰهي..

Every sorrow—if You are pleased, my lord..

يَتَلاشىٰ، وكلُّ كربٍ يَهُونُ

dissolves, and every distress becomes easy."

{ ومن الناس من يشتري لهو الحديث ليضل عن سبيل الله } Translation: Among the people is he who trades in distracting tales to mislead others from the way of Allaah… Ibn Mas’ud: Wallahi, by the one besides Whom there is no other god, this means singing! Source: Tafsir at-Tabari (v. 20, p. 127) Ibn Abbas: This means singing and things like it. Source: Imam Bukhari’s Book of Muslim Manners (no. 786)

الشِّدَّة لا تدوم، وفرج الله محتوم، فمن حكمة الله أن يبتلي من شاء بنزولها به؛ أيصبر أم يجزع؟، ثمَّ يكشفها عنه ليبتليه أيشكر أم يكفر؟، فكلُّ شدَّةٍ يتبعها الفرج، كان عبدالله بن شُبْرُمَةَ الضَّبيُّ رحمه الله - وهو من فقهاء التَّابعين وصالحيهم - إذا نزلت به شدَّةٌ يقول: "سحابةٌ ثمَّ تنقشع". Hardship does not last, and the relief of Allah is certain. From the wisdom of Allah is that He tests whom He wills by sending hardship upon them—will they be patient or will they despair? Then He removes it from them to test them again—will they be grateful or will they be ungrateful? Every hardship is followed by relief. ʿAbdullāh ibn Shubruma al-Ḍabbī رحمه الله, who was among the jurists of the Tābiʿīn and their righteous, used to say when hardship befell him: “A cloud, then it clears.” #Sheikh_Saleh_Al_Osaimi حفظه الله

Hour of Response on Friday is like Laylatul Qadr of Ramadan Imam Ibn al-Qayyim (rahimahullah) Friday is a day of worship. Friday in comparison to other days is like the month of Ramadan to other months. The Hour of Response (sa’aat al-istijabah) on Friday is like the  Night of the Decree in (the blessed month of) Ramadan. [Zaad al-Ma’aad (The Provision for the Hereafter), 1/386, Ibn al-Qayyim (rahimahullah)]

The Prophet of Allah (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: Whoever reads Surah Al-Kahf on Fridays will be adorned with light from that Friday to the next. [Saheeh Jami’ as-Sagheer, 2/6470] ‎— The Prophet of Allah (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: Whoever recites Surah Al-Kahf on Friday will have a light for him between this Friday and the next. ‎ [as-Sunan al-Kubra, 5856] — Abu Sa’id al-Khudri (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) reported: The Prophet (sallAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “Whoever recites Surat al-Kahf on Friday, a light will shine for him between this Friday and the next.” [al-Sunan al-Kubraa of al-Bayhaqi (rahimahullah), no. 5996, Grade: Sahih (authentic) according to al-Albani (rahimahullah)]
