اللهم إني اسألك أن تستر علي، وتُهذِّب قلبي، وتؤدّب طَبعَي، وتحسّن خُلُقي، وتضبط سلوكي، واسألك أن تشغلني بغاياتٍ تليقُ بدربك، وترزقني حكمة القول، وفَنّ الصّمت، وبلاغة الرَّدّ، وجَلال الحُضور، وجمال الغياب.
Ya Allah, I ask You to cover me, to refine my heart, to discipline my nature, to improve my character, to regulate my behavior, and I ask You to occupy me with goals that are worthy of Your path, to bless me with wisdom in speech, the art of silence, eloquence in response, majesty in presence, and grace in absence.
From Hadith Qudsi:
Allah the Almighty said: I am as My servant thinks I am (1). I am with him when he makes mention of Me. If he makes mention of Me to himself, I make mention of him to Myself; and if he makes mention of Me in an assembly, I make mention of him in an assembly better than it. And if he draws near to Me an arm’s length, I draw near to him a cubit, and if he draws near to Me a cubit, I draw near to him a fathom. And if he comes to Me walking, I go to him at speed. [Hadith Qudsi 15]
Turn back to Allāh and you’ll find true happiness.
Surah Yusuf teaches us
- the closest of people can betray you
- broken hearts can be healed through love
- ease comes after hardship
- being sad doesn’t equal being ungrateful
- those who trust the plan of Allāh will win
- the people of patience have beautiful endings
Shaykh Mohammad Aslam
You and only you can transform your reality. Transforming your reality comes from within. It starts with your energy and belief system, it starts with your self concept. Your inner world determines the quality of your outer reality. So pay attention to your dominant thinking patterns, pay attention to your energy.
When you harmonize your inner world, you get a matching shift in your three dimensional reality. When you harmonize your inner world, you get a magical reality. You can have anything you want in life. You can create the most magical reality for yourself. But in order to do this, you need to embody your dream life on the inside.
ربي إنزع من قلبي حب كل شيء لا تحب
My Lord, remove from my heart the love of everything that You do not love.
“The only way to stop any pain in your life is to accept the fact that nothing is yours, nothing was yours, and nothing will ever be yours. They are worldly attachments given by Allāh, belonging to Allāh, and will be returned to Allāh.”
O Allah, grant us humility and cleanse our hearts of pride so that we may turn to Your mercy with sincerity.
