Protect your kids from other people’s children’s influences if they don’t align with the foundation you’re trying to build for them.
Even if they’re family.
SubhanAllah… Today I just learned something that shook me in the most beautiful way.
On the Day of judgment, The Heaviest Thing on the Scales is not your salah. It’s not your fasting. It’s not even your wealth given in charity.
Ibn Al-Arabi Al-Maliki رحمه اللهSaid
"A Righteous Wife Does Not Come Due To Your Efforts Rather She Is A Provision That Is Handed Over To The One Who Fears His Lord."
[Ahkam al-Qur'an, 1/536]
DO YOU KNOW HOW ALLAH TALKS TO YOU?
You make dua. You cry for answers and guidance. You beg Allah to show you the way. But no voice from the sky. No miracle before your eyes. Just silence…..
Someone asked Hassan Al Basri: “what is the secret of your piety?”
He replied, “I understood four things”:
1. I understood my rizq cannot be taken by anyone so my heart is content.
2. I understood no one can do my actions (worship) so i started doing them myself.
3. I understood Allah is watching me, so i felt shame to do wrong.
4. I understood death is waiting for me so i started to prepare for my meeting with Allah
How strange… the traveler has forgotten his destination.
He is busy with provisions, comforts, and distractions, yet forgets where he is actually going.
This world is only a journey. How tragic to become so distracted by the road that you forget the final return.
All Praise be to Allah. We plan but Allah is the best of planners. I’m grateful for the amount of work I have invested in my life, to say at the end of the day, nothing makes me happier than taking care of my family. Alhamdulilah 🤲🏻
Ramadan Mubarak ☪️
