05/18/2012- Seeking Knowledge
The Prophet of Allah (PBUH) said, “If anyone travels on a road in search of knowledge, Allah will cause him to travel on one of the roads of Paradise. The angels will lower their wings in their great pleasure with one who seeks knowledge, the inhabitants of the heavens and the Earth and the fish in the deep waters will ask forgiveness for the learned man. The superiority of the learned man over the devout is like that of the moon, on the night when it is full, over the rest of the stars. The learned are the heirs of the Prophets, and the Prophets leave neither dinar nor dirham (money), leaving only knowledge, and he who takes it takes an abundant portion” (Sunan of Abu-Dawood Hadith 3634).
We are blessed to have resources around us to access an immense amount of knowledge. May Allah allow us to take advantage of them. Jumu’ah Mubarak!

“Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen.”

Remember that it was arrogance that put Shaytan where he is.
“When people did the Prophet ﷺ wrong,
he only increased in doing good to them.
That’s the way you change hearts.”
Shaykh Ibrahim Osi-Efa (via theconsciousmuslim)(Source: facebook.com, via ya-allah)
“Be humble, for you are made of earth. Be noble, for you are made of stars”

When looking in the mirror say…
اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ حَسَّنْتَ خَلْقِي فَحَسِّنْ خُلُقِي
“O Allah, just as You have made my external features beautiful, make my character beautiful as well”.
Sometimes letting go of someone hurts, not because you’ve lost them, but because it’s a reminder that you have moved past another phase in your life.
So I swear by the twilight glow,
And [by] the night and what it envelops,
And [by] the moon when it becomes full,
[That] you will surely experience state after state.
Surah Inshiqaq, 16-19
Surely, the only permanence lies with Allah.
