How you ever pondered about the relationship that exists between your creator and yourself?

Who can better explain this to us, if not the Sublime Book: The Qur'an itself?

The opening chapter: Al fatiha gives us an understanding about the relationship that exists between God and us

Allah, the Supreme is the Creator and we are his creatures

Allah is Independent whereas we depend upon Him in all aspects of our lives

Allah is The Rabb, the owner and sole proprietor of the whole universe whereas, we are His humble servants [Rabb versus Abd]

Allah is the Sustainer and we need to be sustained by Him

Allah provides us with our necessities whereas we are the needy & need to rely on Him

We need Him but He does not need us

He is the Master of the Day of Judgment

No one will ask Him questions whereas we will surely be questioned.

And finally, we must ask Him for Divine guidance so that we walk on the path of truth
The path of excellence which will lead us to eternal bliss...insha Allah

I hope that from now on, you will read surah Al Fatiha with more understanding &

understand its profound meaning...insha Allah

"Whoever seeks the pleasure of men by displeasing Allah, Allah will abandon him to the people" (Tirmidhi).


Leave behind your bad habits of following the masses,

Remember, you may be alone on the path of Truth

but still you must move ahead if you want Allah to love you most....

Victory is not at the beginning but surely at the end!!!

This is my reminder to you, please take care....

Blessings to you

The tree that provides eternal fruits in this life and in the here after

Allah (SWT) has given us a tree that is planted in our hearts, called "shajarat-ul-Iman" (Tree of Iman).

Allah (swt) describes that tree in the Quran:

"Have you not seen how Allah coined a similitude (of parable) a good word like a good tree, the root of that tree is firmly established in the ground and the branches reach the heavens."

At another place in the Quran, Allah our Lord said:
"(this particular tree by the permission of its Lord), gives fruits (all kinds of fruits) anytime Allah (swt) wants it to give fruits.

Allah our Lord also said:

"Allah coin similitude for the human beings (for you and I), so that perhaps we may reflect (we may think)."

Please reflect on surah 14 Ibrahim verse 24-25-26-27

and allow yourself to ponder upon its deep meaning...

If you want God to love you, you have no alternative except to please Him and do what He loves

Enjoin the Good and Forbid the Evil

"You are the best Ummah ever raised up for mankind, you enjoin Al-Maruf (all the good things Islam has ordained) and forbid Al-Munkar (all the evil that Islam has forbidden), and you believe in Allah." (Al-Imran: 110)

And man cannot avert loss unless he does these four things:

"By the time, verily man is in loss. Except those who believe and do righteous good deeds and recommend one another to the truth and recommend one another to patience." (Al-'Asr)

Belief in Allah
Do what is right according to the Quran and sunnah alone
Invite others towards truth based on the Quran and sunnah
Recommend people to be constant and patient in their day to day life

It takes time to build this personality....
You can do it only by asking Allah's help
He created you and so He alone can take care of you....

Start accomplishing simple actions in order to please Him alone
You will see how His mercy extends over you....

I hope you try....

My sincere wishes to you

Ammaara

The Prophet [pbuh] said:

"By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, you must enjoin what is good and forbid what is bad, or Allah will certainly soon send down punishment from Himself to you. Then you will make supplications and they will not be accepted. (Tirmidhi)

How easy to read and how difficult to apply

Especially if we do not have islamic principles ingrained within us

Know dear brothers & sisters, that islam is a community [an ummah] not a mere family affair:

To forbid wrong is part of our iman. It is an act of worship
While stopping somebody to hurt himself or to enter satan's path, you are in fact worshipping Allah, the One who loves you more than anyone else

I will pray for you that Allah guides you towards more understanding

I hope you do the same for me, insha Allah

The secret of success behind unity

The Prophet says that all people are as equal as the teeth of a comb. Islam does not discriminate based on race, colour, age, nationality, or physical traits.
Our beloved Prophet [pbuh] declared:

"You are all from Adam, and Adam is from earth. O servants of God, be brothers (and sisters)".

If you want to lead a happy life, create unity and Islamic bonds….
In order to create Islamic bonds, you need to purify your heart….
This is the secret of bliss
Sure it takes time….
But two rakaats each day will lead you
To your objective….Eternal bliss

And I hope you reflect...

How many among us, think always of tomorow and never of the present...

One day, someone said to me:

I was dying to finish my high school and start college
Then, I was dying to finish college and start working
Then, I was dying to marry and have kids of my own.
Then, I was dying for them to grow old enough so I could go back to work
But then, I was dying to retire.
And now I am dying…
And suddenly I realized I forgot to live

Would you let that happen to you too?

We only live once….so let us remind ourselves of the little things God gave us in order to enjoy each thing at its own time…

Tomorrow is not ours….your life can stop here while you are reading this….

Oh God, allow me to love you the most

Sometimes God breaks our spirit to save our soul.
Sometimes He breaks our heart to make us whole.
Sometimes God allows pain so we can be stronger.
Sometimes God sends us failure so we can be humble.
Sometimes God allows illness so we can take better care of ourselves.
Sometimes God takes everything away from us so we can learn the value of everything He gave us.

Plan, but understand that we only live by God's grace...And God’s grace is total wisdom

Dear God, allow my heart to love you the most....
And make dear for me what is dear for You, my dear Allah...

Yours

Ammaara

While praying one day, a woman asked:

“Who are you, lord?”

He answered: “I am” “But who is I am?” she said.
And He replied…”I am love, I am Peace, I am Grace, I am Joy, I am the Way, the Truth and the Light….I am the Comforter, I am strength, I am Safety, I am Shelter, I am Power, I am the Creator, I am the Beginning and the End, I am the Most High…..”

The Girl with tears in her eyes looked towards the heaven and said:

“Now, I understand. But Lord, Who am I?”

Then God tenderly wiped the tears from her eyes and whispered: “You are mine.”

Sure, God loves us and cares for us, but He loves us too much to leave us the way we are….
We all have weaknesses and it is God’s plan to test us in this life…and see who among us will fight and struggle to cleanse our soul…
Events, incidents in life can rust our heart and harden our soul
But if you trust God in everything that happens to you, He will show you the wisdom behind every incident…
Every day you wake up and find you are still breathing:
It’s a proof that God has given you one more chance to learn His wisdom….
So, don’t miss this occasion to seek nearness of God the moment you wake up…
I wish it for you; hope you wish the same for me too.
Yours

A lesson of modesty: for you to have eternal bliss

A beautiful diamond that a princess
dropped one day laid lost in a meadow.
Just above it shone a drop of dew,
hanging from a shoot of grass.

The sun made them both shine, and the
modest dewdrop admired the noble stone.
A large beetle that was passing by
recognized in the diamond someone of
high origin.

"Sir, I give you homage," the beetle
said.

"Thank you," the diamond responded
haughtily.

Turning its head, the beetle saw the
drop of dew. "One of your relatives I
presume?" the beetle said, nodding
towards the diamond.

The diamond burst out laughing. "How
can you place me on the same level as
this vulgar being? Its beauty is only
imitation. It shines but it doesn't
last."

The beetle was flabbergasted, and the
drop of dew felt completely humiliated.
Then a bird flew down and pecked at the
diamond.

"Ah no," the bird said, disappointed,
"I thought you were a drop of water,
but you are only a diamond. My beak is
dry, I feel like I'm going to die of
thirst."

"Oh well, what's one bird more or
less," the diamond laughed again.

But at the same time the dewdrop
resolved to help the bird. "Can I be of
use to you?" it said.

The bird raised its head. "Oh
precious friend, you have saved my
life!"

"Come then," said the dewdrop. And
the bird drank it up and flew away,
revived.

"Here is a lesson I won't soon
forget," thought the beetle, continuing
on its way. "Simple merit is worth more
than rank or wealth that has no modesty
or devotion. There can be no real
beauty in that."

Ya no real beauty: only those who follow the instructions of Allah have beautiful spirits....
Acquire modesty...and soon God will level you up...

A Prayer just for you my dear brother


I said a prayer for you today
to make your spirits rise,

I prayed for happiness for you,
but then I asked for more.

I asked that God would give you
the courage that you need
to be yourself, to do your best,
to dream and to succeed.

I prayed that God would bless you
with confidence in Him alone…that God will level you up and guide you towards eternal bliss: Al Islam

I said it with my heart: I hope you liked it…

WHAT REALLY MATTERS

At the end of the day, it is not how much money you make, the kind of car you drive, the label you wear, the size of your house or how many pats on the back you received at the office.

At the end of the day, it is not about physical beauty because beauty will fade. It is not about the tattoo you have on your body because it will go out of fashion. It is not about the boundless energy because energy levels may dip with age.

At the end of the day, do you feel comfortable with yourself? can you sleep soundly and wake up in the morning with a peaceful spirit?

What really matters, is what God thinks about you....

Your relationship with Him

Do not create partners in your heart and mind

And if you remember God each day, surely He will remember you....

And that's for sure is the best of all backing

Ammaara Uddeen

God is no stranger in faraway places,
He's as close as the wind that blows on our faces.
It's true we can't see the wind as it blows,
But we feel it around us and our heart surely knows,
That God's mighty hand can be felt every minute.


There is nothing on earth that God is not in.
The sky and the stars, the waves and even the sea,
The dew on the grass, the leaves on a tree,
Are constant reminders of God and His nearness,
Proclaiming His presence with crystal-like clearness

So how can we think God was far, far away,
When we feel Him beside us every hour of the day?


So how can we think God was far, far away,
When we feel Him beside us every hour of the day?

We have plenty of reasons to know God's our friend
And this is one friendship that time cannot end!

Isn’t it a good reason to feel happy
Love of God is eternal Bliss

The rules for being human

1. YOU WILL RECEIVE A BODY
You may like it or hate it but it will be yours for the entire period this time around.
2. YOU WILL LEARN LESSONS
You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called life. Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or think them irrelevant or stupid.
3. THERE ARE NO MISTAKES, ONLY LESSONS
Growth is a process of trial and error: experimentation. The “failed” experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiment that ultimately “works”.
4. A LESSON IS REPEATED UNTIL LEARNED
A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can then go to the next lesson.
5. LEARNING LESSONS DOES NOT END
There is no part of life that does not contain its lesson. If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.
6. “THERE” IS NO BETTER THAN“HERE”
When your “there” has become your “here” you will simply obtain another “there” that will, again, look better than “here.”
7. OTHERS ARE MERELY MIRRORS OF YOU
You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate in yourself.
8. WHAT YOU MAKE OF YOUR LIFE IS UP TO YOU
You have all the tools and resources you need, what you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
9. YOUR ANSWERS LIE INSIDE YOU
The answers to life’s questions lie inside you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.

No time to live

Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven't thought about it, don't have it on their schedule, didn't know it was coming or are too rigid to depart from their routine.
I was thinking one day about all those women and men who just work and live up a routine life, and when asked why, they simply say: “It’s life”.
Life has a way of accelerating, as we get older. The days get shorter, and the list of promises to us gets longer. One morning, we awaken, and all we have to show for our lives is a litany of "I'm going to," "I plan on" and "Someday, when things are settled down a bit."
If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, whom would you call and what would you say? And why are you waiting?
Have you ever watched kids playing on a merry go round or listened to the rain lapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down. Time is short. Happiness cannot wait for you.
When you ask, "How are you?" Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done, do you lie in your bed with the next hundred chores running through your head?

Ever told your mate or friend, we'll do it tomorrow. And in your haste, not see his sorrow?

You'd better slow down. When you run so fast to get somewhere, you miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day, it is like an unopened gift....
Hey…it’s shaytan’s trick to get you down….

Happiness: the right of everyone of us....

Happiness: understanding the way that leads to happiness

God has created all things in pairs so that we may make the difference between the two. Let me give you an example

God created the male, then the female. Both are complementary and opposite to each other in many ways. While living together and sharing knowledge together, they learn to be complete [Al Insann Al Kaamil]

God created the cold and the hot; in order to feel how hot something is, you have to compare it with the cold…

Q: Do you have other examples in your mind?

Q: What is the opposite of happiness?

All of us have already experienced what happiness mean and also its opposite. It is human’s nature to love to be happy.


But to be happy, to live eternal happiness, is to recognise that God, the Supreme is ONE

May you be happy my brothers and sisters from all over the world

The eternal bliss of Islam: the religion of mankind

"The sweet, beautiful, and gentle message of Islam has touched my heart and moved my spirit some few years back. Allah’s message has echoed in my very soul and transformed me.

Dear muslims and dear muslimahs, let us allow Islam to touch all the hearts of every man and every woman on earth by sending them the good news that Allah is the Most Glorious, the Most Merciful….”

Islam forever...

Yours

Ammaara
