On the day of Ashura

Musa عليه السلام arrived at the sea
There was no escape
The sea was in front of him.
And Firawn was behind him...

And the children of Israel said to him:
Indeed, we are overtaken

but he answered them with the answer of one who trusts in his Lord:
No, indeed, with me is my Lord. He will guide me.

O Allāh, grant us certainty in you like the certainty of Musa عليه السّلام, belief in your promise like the belief of Musa عليه السّلام, and trust in You like the trust of Musa عليه السّلام.

{ رَبَّنَا لَا تُزِغۡ قُلُوبَنَا بَعۡدَ إِذۡ هَدَيۡتَنَا وَهَبۡ لَنَا مِن لَّدُنكَ رَحۡمَةًۚ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ ٱلۡوَهَّابُ }

[Surah Âl-`Imrân: 8]

˹They say,˺ “Our Lord! Do not let our hearts deviate after you have guided us. Grant us Your mercy. You are indeed the Giver ˹of all bounties˺.

Umar_Ibn_Al_Khattab رضي الله عنه said:

“I am not worried about whether my dua will be responded to,but rather I am worried about whether I will be able to make dua or not. So if I have been guided to make dua, then I know that the response will come with it.”

Subhanallah😭❤️

Don't let go of that dua. Keep making that dua. Miracles happen everyday. Don't worry about the 'How'. He is Al-Azeem (The magnificent), Al- Fattah (The supreme solver), Al- Mujeeb (The responsive one). 'How' is from Allah. The one who answers the Dua. Everything will soon make sense in a very beautiful way. Don't let anxiety consume you. Just Pray and trust the power of a sincere Prayer. Allah will soon show you answers to your prayers. Allah will grant all your prayers at the right time. He wouldn't put you through all of this to give you less than what you had before. It's coming, just be patient. -🌷

﴿يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا قُوا أَنفُسَكُمْ وَأَهْلِيكُمْ نَارًا﴾

Translation: O you who’ve believed, protect yourselves and your families from a Fire…

This means: He teaches him (the child) the halaal and haraam. And he prohibits him from disobedience and sin and other than that…

۝So, if you were given authority, would you perhaps cause corruption in the land and sever your ties of kinship? ۝

Severing ties of kinship is linked to corruption, and those who sever ties of kinship and those who cause them to be severed will be cursed, banished, and banished from the mercy of God.

O God, we ask You for the rectification of hearts, and we ask You for guidance and safety.

✨A beautiful ḥadīth qudsī reminding us that there is no one who forgives like Allah. No matter what we may have done, He is waiting for us to turn to Him with sincerity and humility, and to beg for His forgiveness. He is al-Ghafūr (The All-Forgiving) and al-Ghaffār (The Most Forgiving). Do not lose hope in Allah’s mercy.

﴿ٱللَّهُ لَاۤ إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا هُوَ ٱلۡحَیُّ ٱلۡقَیُّومُۚ لَا تَأۡخُذُهُۥ سِنَةࣱ وَلَا نَوۡمࣱۚ لَّهُۥ مَا فِی ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰ⁠تِ وَمَا فِی ٱلۡأَرۡضِۗ مَن ذَا ٱلَّذِی یَشۡفَعُ عِندَهُۥۤ إِلَّا بِإِذۡنِهِۦۚ یَعۡلَمُ مَا بَیۡنَ أَیۡدِیهِمۡ وَمَا خَلۡفَهُمۡۖ وَلَا یُحِیطُونَ بِشَیۡءࣲ مِّنۡ عِلۡمِهِۦۤ إِلَّا بِمَا شَاۤءَۚ وَسِعَ كُرۡسِیُّهُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَ ٰ⁠تِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضَۖ وَلَا یَـُٔودُهُۥ حِفۡظُهُمَاۚ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَلِیُّ ٱلۡعَظِیمُ﴾ [البقرة ٢٥٥]

Allāh - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living,[98] the Self-Sustaining.[99] Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them,[100] and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursī[101] extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High,[102] the Most Great.[103]

﴿رَبَّنَاۤ ءَامَنَّا بِمَاۤ أَنزَلۡتَ وَٱتَّبَعۡنَا ٱلرَّسُولَ فَٱكۡتُبۡنَا مَعَ ٱلشَّـٰهِدِینَ﴾ [آل عمران ٥٣]

Our Lord, we have believed in what You revealed and have followed the messenger [i.e., Jesus], so register us among the witnesses [to truth]."

﴿وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن یَشۡرِی نَفۡسَهُ ٱبۡتِغَاۤءَ مَرۡضَاتِ ٱللَّهِۚ وَٱللَّهُ رَءُوفُۢ بِٱلۡعِبَادِ﴾ [البقرة ٢٠٧]

And of the people is he who sells himself, seeking means to the approval of Allāh. And Allāh is Kind to [His] servants.

۝So that He may test you as to which of you is best in deed۝

The standard is quality and excellence, not quantity or scarcity!

O Allah, make us among those who do good deeds and worship.
