Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem
‘If a dirham is lost, you will find a man lamenting for the whole day: ‘My dirham is gone. My dirham is gone’ –
but when he wastes hours of his life, he does not say: ‘My life is gone!’

his Tafseer:
"He who protects his eyes from
unlawful gazes, Allah Ta'ala will grant him the light of the heart."

INSPIRATIONAL | The Hereafter beautifully explained
Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem
In a
mother's womb, were two babies, engaged in conversation.
The one
asked the other: "Do you believe in
life after delivery?"
The other
replied: "Of course! There has to
be something after delivery. It may be that we are here to prepare ourselves
for what will follow later."
"Nonsense!" says the other. "There is no life after delivery! What
would that life be?"
"Well, I can’t say exactly, but
there will probably be more light there, than here. And we will probably walk
with our legs, use our hands, eat with our mouths…."
The first
baby says: "That is absurd! Walking
is impossible. And eating with our mouths? How ridiculous you are! …The
umbilical cord supplies nutrition. Life after delivery is to be excluded."
The other
baby responded: "I think there is
something beyond this world of the womb, and maybe it is different than what is
here."
The first
replies: "No one has ever come back
from there! Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery, there is
nothing but darkness and anxiety and it takes us nowhere. Nowhere at all!"
"Well, whatever is to be, will
be," says the
other, "but certainly we will see
our mother and she will take care of us."
"Mother???" …Do you believe
in mother? Where is she now?"
The baby
responds: "She is all around us. It
is in her that we live. Without her, there would not be this world of
ours."
"I don't see her, so it's only
logical that she doesn't exist!"
To which
the other replied, "Sometimes when
you are silent, you can hear her, you can perceive her. I believe there is
mother – loving and caring. And I believe there is a reality after delivery and
we are here to prepare ourselves for that reality."

Qadr | Divine Decree
Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem
A man came to Imam Abu Hanifa (RA) wanting to argue
about Qadr (Divine Decree).
He said : “Do you know that the one who looks into
Al-Qadr is like the one who looks at the sun with his bare eyes? The more you
look into it, the more confused you become.”

Introspection
Bismillahir Rahmaanir Raheem
A
Mu’min (believer) speaks little but accomplishes much in good-deeds; on the
other hand, a hypocrite talks more but accomplishes very little in good-deeds.
[Hazrat Fuzail ibn Ayaaz (RA)]
