Post a Comment On: LESSONS OF THE DAY

Ayahs of the Day:For the conscientious there will be an abode of felicity with groves and grape vines, and companions of equal age, and a cup full. They will not hear any nonsense there, and no falsehood, as recompense, a deserved gift from your Lord. [78: 31 to 36]
Hadith of the Day:To see things one should not see -- is one of the poisonous arrows of the Devil. Whoever restrains from this due to his love and fear of Me, I will give him such faith that his heart will be totally filled. [Hadith Qudsi, Tabarani]
Wise Quote of the Day:Only God and no living creature has the power to control destinies. With that conviction entrust all your cares to the Lord and follow the path of the Truth, conforming to the divine edicts. [Shaykh Abdul Qadir Jilani]
Guidance of the Day:If you are one who loves because of what you receive, then (know that) there is no graciousness, favor, honor, or provision bestowed upon you or any other creature but that God the Exalted has favored you with it purely through His generosity and liberality. How many a good thing has He given you! How many a favor has He granted you! He is your Lord and Guardian, Who created and guided you, to whom your life and your death belong, Who gives you to eat and drink, Who provides and looks after you, Who shelters you and gives you refuge.
He sees your ugly behavior and conceals it; you ask Him to forgive you and He does so, and He sees your righteous behavior and increases and manifests it. You obey Him by His providence and aid and He mentions your name in the Unseen, and casts respect and love for you into the hearts of others. You disobey Him using His favors, yet disobedience does not make Him withhold His favors. How can you love other than this Generous God? Or how could you disobey this Compassionate Lord? [Al-Haddad, The Book of Assistance]
Food for Thought:We must move from asking God to take care of the things that are breaking our hearts, to praying about the things that are breaking His heart. We should pray for a sane mind in a sound body. We do pray for mercy, and that same prayer does teach us all to render the deeds of mercy.
