BADTASTEBEARS

Fear Allah
Assalamualaikum!

For everything there is a blessing; the blessing of the hearts is being pleased with Allah, the Almighty, the All-powerful.

- Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal
 

Aisya al-Humaira

الحمدلله على كل حال
:wasalam:

JazaakaAllaahu khaayr.

First time reading it, its like reading any other sentence on the board. But the more you read the phrase, the more you know that within that sentence lies a very, very deep meaning. Mashaa Allaah.

For everything there is a blessing

For the mean, rude people that you meet, they actually taught you to only increase in your patience and to forgive people more.

For the calamities and hardships in life, it taught you to seek Allaah and only The Al-Mighty who can help you during that time but it also reminds you not to be selfish to only be close to Allaah during hardships but also at times when you are in such a comfort.

For having a I-really-can't-stand-with-you sort of husband or wife, it could be that it is a way Allaah wants to upgrade your rank in His Views, Allaah wants to send lots of Ajr for your constant patience and steadfastness because too many times we happen to forget immediately the abundace of goodness in our spouse when we focus too much on his/her flaws.

In short, indeed, in EVERYTHING, every single thing in life, there are blessings. We just have to take some short, peaceful moments and dig out the blessings that Allaah wanted us to think and ponder upon. Mashaa Allaah.

the blessing of the hearts is being pleased with Allah, the Almighty, the All-powerful.

Needless to say more, brothers and sisters whom I love for His sake only, try to look for that blessing of the heart. When you do feel it even for a short moment, even just for one day, at that time, no matter how big the test that you go through in life, you feel such a bliss inside because you are calm, peaceful and happy with the blessing of the heart -- by being pleased with Allaah subhanahu wa Ta'ala, despite of the constant difficulties throughout your WHOLE life that He send to you.

And there's no other feeling in this world you'd like to feel again and again and again other than THAT blessings of the heart!

P.S: Sorry to hijack your thread.

Assalaam walaikum,

I know for a fact its all about the heart. Polish the rust of the heart. Open the doors to the Light of Allah. Sing the praises of Allah. Rejoice.

In one week we have had an earthquake and a hurricane. They were blessings indeed.

As Rumi wrote when you are thirsty why drink water when you need to find the source of the thirst.
