Allah swt is forgiving

Ya Al Barr, we seek your forgiveness. We may have thought or did something which might have derailed us to return to You. So forgive us! Remove all our suffering instantly! And give us good happenings! 

The word " بَلَاء " (bala)is wrongly translated as affiction, test or trial.

 In 7.17 " بَلَاءً حَسَنًا " means good(hasan) happening. Thus "bala" means happening.

Likewise the word " وَلَنَبْلُوَنَّكُم " in 2.155. In particular the word " بْلو "

ba-laam-wau which means “ happening" by good or evil”.

Same with the word "فَتَنَّا" " fatana" which means fascination, attraction etc. in 20.85.
And God does not need to test us as God knows our piety since our embryo stage!

According to 53.32 God knows our piety. 
"They avoid major sins and immorality, except for minor offences. Your Lord is with vast forgiveness. He has been fully aware of you since He initiated you from the earth, and while you were embryos in the wombs of your mothers. Therefore, do not ascribe piety to yourselves; He is fully aware of the righteous."

If God Knows about your piety what is the need for God to test us? 

Our God is not a sadistic God as depicted by majority of teachers. "Your Lord is with vast forgiveness." "The Most Compassionate, The Most Merciful! " 1.1
يا رب اغفر لنا
⚘️Oh Lord Pardon us!🤲

The Key of the Treasures of the Heavens and the Earth

W hen I wrote the post of my visit to see the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) , you may be wondering how that can be? To tell you the truth I felt the same way. But it is a norm for great learned people of the past to have experience of dreaming the great Prophet. I think it all decided by Allah swt to have a glimpse of the sweetness of faith. It is all about our intention in this life. What we actually want in the inner recesses of our hearts. What you want is what you get. I will also like to give some information of what I do in my daily life. 12 years ago I got the opportunity of a book on Islam. Therein I found a story of the Holy Prophet Muhammad saw. It is reported that ‘ Uthman ibn Affan, may Allah be pleased with him, requested further information about Allah’s injunction of the Keys of the Treasure of the Heavens and the Earth (mentioned several times in the Quran). The Prophet saws said to him “You have inquired of me something which nobody has ever asked me befo...

How Quran mentions the five times prayer

We are pretty surprised that many Muslims still do not know that the Quran has already mentioned about the five obligatory prayers or salat. And this is very sad.  For simplicity, I have created the following google slides as reference. Blogger cannot embed interactive google slides as far as we know. Therefore, we will link to you the google slides. However, you need to have google slides account in your device. You can sign up with google account to go into google slides. We do appreciate it if you can write some comments here on the presentation and its content. 😊 The link is here

I Was Taken Up To The Sky

G lory to (God) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We did bless, - in order that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things). 17/1 It was the year 2005. One of my relative gave me a unique  digital tasbih (counter) from Mecca. I do have a counter but it is noisy when I click it to count. Asking Allah to bless upon Prophet Muhammad (saw) had been very beneficial to believers. It is known as "salawat" or "darood". However, repeating the same words could become a bored activity. There are hadith which propose 1000 daroods upon the Prophet. Some  opinionated   40000 daroods before a person reaches the age of 40. Forty is the age when our beloved Prophet was given prophet hood as he received the first five verses of the Al- Quran. Back in 2005 I got a project in building management which is located 30 over kilometers in the East,I had to leave fro...
