MESSAGE OF DAY
2 April 2017
Let us not forget that our lives are a calendar of opportunity, the days of which are numbered. Every day, an unseen hand plucks away a leaf and abandons it to the winds of death.
1 April 2017
The tears that the believers shed in fear of Allah are light of the grave’s darkness and the drops of dew in the gardens of Paradise.
31 March 2017
Sufism is an unremitting struggle against the carnal self. The believer is a person who resists with the strength of their faith the assaults of the carnal soul and Satan, throughout their entire life.
30 March 2017
Those who condemn their nights to sleep will be deprived of Divine grace like the coming to nothing of fertile rains falling upon the desert, the sea and rock faces.
29 March 2017
The Qur’an is like an earth from which treasure springs the further one digs. As long as we can deepen in the contemplation of its vast contents.
28 March 2017
True contemplation begins at the point of intersection of a reason inspired by revelation and a spiritually refined heart.
27 March 2017
An unrefined selfhood is insatiable. A believer who has tasted the pleasure of belief, however, praises Allah for a sufficient amount of sustenance, even seeking someone with whom to share it.
26 March 2017
If our heart’s direction is the Hereafter, the world will follow us. But if our hearts covet the world, neither the world will be ours, nor the Hereafter.
25 March 2017
The most precious treasure is the treasure of the Hereafter comprised of the prayers and blessings rising from the hearts of the needy and suffering whom one has made happy.
24 March 2017
When we look from the horizon of belief and perfect goodness, the state in which we are closer to Allah – whether wealth or poverty – we ought to see as better for us.
23 March 2017
A great many people suppose impoverishment and destitution an ‘evil’ in the absolute sense. Whereas it is this deprivation that keeps a great many on the straight path.
22 March 2017
The servant is to be pleased with the will of their Lord that their Lord be pleased with His servant.
21 March 2017
In the heart of a true believer, the pleasure of honouring others comes before a desire to satisfy their own hunger. They cannot enjoy what they eat while there remain the hungry around them.
20 March 2017
The Qur’an is the foundation of true belief and religious culture. Without a solid foundation, everything built upon it is doomed to destruction and devastation.
