Be patient🌨

•• "الفراغُ مفتاحُ الضياع، والنفسُ إن لم تُشغل بالمَعالي انحرفت نحو مهاوي الباطل، أشدُّ ما يُبتلى به القلبُ تعلُّقٌ بلا أصل واتباعٌ بلا وجهة، يعيش صاحبه على سرابٍ يحسبه موردًا وهو هباء".

"Emptiness is the key to losing one's way. If the soul is not occupied with noble pursuits, it will stray towards the depths of falsehood. The most severe affliction of the heart is attachment to things without substance and following paths without a destination. Its owner lives on an illusion, believing it to be a source of sustenance, when in reality it is nothing but fleeting smoke."

قال ابنُ القيِّم رحمه الله: إذا اضطرب القلبُ وقلق فليس له ما يطمئنُّ به سوىٰ ذكرِ الله.

when the heart becomes disturbed and anxious, there is nothing that can bring it true tranquility except the remembrance of Allah.

[مدارج السالكين (3/72)]

al-Hasan al-Basri said:

A man would be pricked by a thorn and say, "I know that you are because of a sin and my Lord does not treat me unjustly."

[al-Zuhd 1647]

Shaykh Ibn Uthaymin رحمه الله said:

No matter what you seek from the doctors to remove that which is in your heart, you will never find anything like the Quran.

Umar رضي الله عنه said,

It is not appropriate for women of noble lineage to be married except to those who are their suitable equals.

Sheikh al Fawzan حفظه الله said,

People dont pray and say that religion is in their hearts, if it was in their hearts they would have prayed.

[Al Ittihāf Pg. 536]

احْرِصْ عَلَى مَا يَنْفَعُكَ وَاسْتَعِنْ بِاللَّهِ

Be keen on what benefits you, and seek the help of Allāh.

Sahīh Muslim (2664) You are not short on strength/ability. It's where you spend it that matters. In trivial debates that change nothing, current news items you can't affect, or personal comparisons that are draining you. Success doesn't start with more effort. It starts with choosing what deserves your actual effort.

Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz (رحمه الله) said: إذا رأيتم الرجل يطيل الصمت، ويهرب من الناس; فاقربوا منه، فإنه يُلقّى الحكمة

When you see a man who prolongs silence and keeps away from people, then draw close to him, for he is being taught wisdom.

At-Tabsirah, 2/289.

The declaration of oneness, "La ilaha illallah" (There is no god but Allah), is the foundation of religion and the true faith. It determines salvation and damnation, success and failure, happiness and misery, paradise and hell. - The first command from Allah is to establish the oneness of God by worshipping Him alone and rejecting all forms of idolatry (taghut). - O servant of Allah, your declaration of oneness will only be valid if it includes both the negation and the affirmation of the statement "La ilaha illallah." - The first pillar: "La ilaha" (There is no God). This pillar involves rejecting "taghut" (idolatry), which encompasses various forms: "taghut" that challenges Allah in His actions and attributes, "taghut" of worship, "taghut" of governance and legislation, "taghut" of obedience, and "taghut" of authority and allegiance. - The second pillar: "Illallah" (But Allah). This pillar affirms that Allah alone is worthy of worship, rules, legislation, absolute obedience, authority, and allegiance, and that no one else should be associated with Him. If this declaration is sincerely realized in the heart of the believer, if they act upon it, and if they call others to it with sincerity, belief, faith, obedience, knowledge, love, and acceptance, then they will be saved from the fire and will attain forgiveness.

"Your provision (rizq) is coming to you, even if you were tied up with ropes."

THE SERVANT IS TESTED WITH OTHERS As for wealth and poverty, these are trials that ALLĀH decrees for a reason, as HE says:

وَجَعَلۡنَا بَعۡضَكُمۡ لِبَعۡضٍ فِتۡنَةً WE have made some of you as a trial for others

The Messenger ﷺ is a trial for those to whom he is sent, a test to see who will obey and who will disobey, and We test the Messengers by giving them the mission of calling people. The rich man is a trial for the poor man, and the poor man is a trial for the rich man - and so on, with all types of people in this world, which is the realm of trials and tests. The purpose of that test is to see:

أَتَصۡبِرُونَۗ Will you have patience?

And do what you are supposed to do, in which case your Lord will reward you, or will you fail to be patient and thus deserve the punishment? {Tafsi‌r As-Sa'di} #Sadi #furqan (25:20) https://t.me/Tafseer_Benefits

Ibn Baz, may Allah have mercy on him said: "The greatest blessing that Allah grants to a woman is neither a husband, nor children, nor a house. It is that she understands the meaning of Tawhid and applies it until her death, for it is this that will save her soul when everything disappears." [Majmuʿ Fatawa Rasā’il, 1/134]

‏- احذروا خُطــوَات الشيطان - فهي السبب في الإنتكاسة بعد الإستقامة ، فلا يزال الشيطان يطفىء نور الايمان في القلب حتى يظلم القلب .. فيجعل العبد يفرط في النوافل ثم يتوسع في المباحات ثم يهون عليه صغائر الذنوب ، ثم يجعله يفرط في الفرائض ثم يهون عليه الكبائر ثم يشككه في الدين .

- Beware of the Devil's Tricks - They are the cause of relapse after righteousness. The Devil continues to extinguish the light of faith in the heart until the heart becomes darkened. He leads the servant to neglect obligatory prayers, then to indulge in permissible things, then to consider minor sins as insignificant, and then to neglect obligatory duties, to consider major sins as trivial, and finally, to doubt the religion itself.

"Some people live their whole lives for sports. When you see them or you talk to them, they can tell you everything about sports. Whether it's soccer, football, or any other sports. They can tell you about the players more than they can tell you about the lives of the Sahābah رضي الله عنهم اجمعين. Their laptops and their phones, both externally and internally, are filled with information and pictures about their favorite players and teams because that’s what they’re truly passionate about. That’s their entire world and that’s their life. Their focus and goal is on the sport of the season. They connect to matters pertaining to sports and disconnect from what doesn’t pertain to sports. They put their energy to activities that don’t involve Allāh سبحانه وتعالى. You sit with them and open topics other than sports and they’ll show no interest. Talk about the Qur’an and Sunnah—they’re disconnected from that because they’re connected to something else. A Mutabaadil’s mindset differs significantly from that of a businessman or a sports enthusiast or anyone with any dunya pursuit no matter what it is. A Mutabattil finds joy in his ‘Ibādah and he experiences sadness when he misses on a moment that could be spent in ‘Ibādah. Their constant pursuit is to seek refuge in Allāh سبحانه وتعالى. Their talk and interest is about Allāh سبحانه وتعالى. And the status of Tabattul is a constant presence in an individual's life. It remains with one at all times in every location. It’s not a part-time thing. A Mutabattil might be physically among others, but their soul and spirit is wandering around the ‘Arsh of Allāh سبحانه وتعالى. They interact with people through their appearance and speech, but deep inside they’re filled with a sense of Allāh سبحانه وتعالى greatness and majesty. They celebrate with others in their happiness, yet their heart with heavy with fear and respect for their Lord. They feel sorrow alongside others, but their spirit is filled with peace and joy in what Allāh سبحانه وتعالى has decreed. They’re like a presence that’s both there and not there." — Shaykh Ahmad Jibril حفظه الله

"من السنّة أن تتخذو كنية لأنفسكم حتَّى وأن لم تكونوا متزوجين/متزوجات" "It is from the Sunnah to adopt a Kunyah (teknonym) for yourselves even if you are not married." ​ "مَا كُنيتك؟ ​"What is your Kunyah?

Our role models were never just trends. Khadijah رضي الله عنها ran a successful business and supported the Prophet ﷺ Aisha رضي الله عنها taught half our Deen to the Sahaba Nusaybah رضي الله عنها defended the Prophet ﷺ on the battlefield of Uhud This is the legacy of a Muslim woman. Strong. Knowledgeable. Fearless. Islam never limited women. It empowered them to be leaders, learners, and protectors of the Deen. رضي الله عنهن Who do our daughters look up to today?

Imām Ash-Shāfi’ī رحمه الله said: “If you wish for the rectification of your heart, or your son, or your brother, or whoever you wish for their rectification, then place him in the garden of the Qur’ān and in the company of the Qur’ān. For verily Allāh will rectify him, whether he wills for it or not, by His permission The Exalted!” [Hilyatul Awliyā]
