Don't Approach.....It's Decaying

Sometimes there happens things to you in general life of no 

significance but when you reflect a little deeper you can correlate it to eternity. Like it happened to me few days back when the that thought crossed my mind.

As it happened that we decided to shift to new home, since the day I had made up this mind of shifting  I felt that  I am having lesser attraction to attachment to my old home. daily the thought of new house how would I maintain it,decorate it,how would live in it pass my mind. I no longer feel to make new changes to my old house. Let it be the way it is because soon I would have to leave this house and move to new one. So being lenient for old home but more zealous and passionate for new one. The other I was sitting on my Musalla and thought came to my mind Alhumdulillah that just because im shifting to new house I don't want to attach myself to old one then why is that we don't feel to detach ourselves for this temporary abode of duniya and making and decorating our  Jannah ,our eternal abode. May be I would live in this house of duniya for one moment,one day or may be few years and Im getting so passionate having this and that in my house such flooring,curtains,white wash etc but my permanent abode Jannah which is for eternity I have to inclination to that one.

This might happen  when we will woke up on day of judgement questioning how long we would have lived in this world, Just for a day or even lesser!! Truly this world is Daar ul Ghoroor,House of Deception.

For just a day so much preparation BUT no preparation or negligent preparation for Aakhirah!!

May Allah Ta'ala open the reality of this futile world on us and take us closer to Him Ameen!!

Find the True Wealth !!

Narrated by Abu Hurairah Radi Allahu Anhu that the Holy Prophet Sallalahu Alaihy Wasallam; "Beware that this world and whatever it contains are cursed( by God) except the remembrance of God, the deeds approved by and pleasing to God,the scholars of religious knowledge and the students of that  knowledge."

Tirmizi, Ibn Majah

See through Heart...How??

When a lover of God turns his eyes away from the temptations of this world, he sees the Lord with the eyes of his heart.

 [Shaykh Ali al Hujwiri]

Ship of the Heart

"Shaykh S‘adi rahmatullahi alayh explains the relationship of man to material wealth by using the example of a ship and the ocean. A ship cannot function and reach its destination without water; however, the water of the ocean must not enter the ship, otherwise the ship will ultimately sink and be destroyed.Similarly, man’s heart is also a ship and its ocean is material wealth, without which it is difficult to survive. As long as he keeps the water (the love of material wealth) outside the ship of his heart, he will be able to safeguard himself from sinking. On the contrary, if his heart’s ship begins to let in the water from the ocean he will sink and perish.We need to understand that this world has been designed for us to use as per need, only enough to reach our destination.”

Why is it that....??

Why is it that we know the purpose of our life yet we are not fulling the purpose of our creation?Why is it that we know we could die at any second yet we are not preparing for our imminent death?

Why is it that we know our life is short & temporary & that the Hereafter is for eternity yet we continue to invest everything into our short temporary life which can end at any second but neglect the Hereafter which will last forever?

These are questions we must keep asking ourselves because we have become truly deluded chasing a path that leads to a dead end rather than a path that will lead to eternal success.

Where are You Bending Towards??

Following section is started as a reminder for myself first so that i could get the reality of this Duniya, to come out of  mundane acts and could make preparation for the return to Allah Ta'ala.Quote below are taken from the book written by Abdul Malik Al Qasim ' The Life of This World Is  a Transient Shade' and from other sources.May Allah Ta'ala make it easy for me and all to get our heart detatched from this Duniya and strive to earn our real goal ie Akhirah Ameen.

‘Amr Ibn Abdullah (radiyallahu anhu) said: "The life of this world and the Hereafter, in the heart of a person, are like the two scales of a balance, when the one becomes heavier the other becomes lighter."
