there were only 4 of us..our naqibah, my 2 friends and me..the others were unable to come as they have their own commitment going for oncall and there's one who went back to her husband.
after opening the session with al-Fatihah we were reciting the Quran, SUrah Luqman chapter 31, verses 1 to 34..we discussed more on verse 20 onward.. there's few ayah that caught my attention
first..verse 22
وَمَنْ يُسْلِمْ وَجْهَهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَهُوَ مُحْسِنٌ فَقَدِ اسْتَمْسَكَ بِالْعُرْوَةِ الْوُثْقَى وَإِلَى اللَّهِ عَاقِبَةُ الْأُمُورِ
And whosoever submits his face (himself) to Allâh [i.e.(follows Allâh's Religion of Islâmic Monotheism), worships Allâh (Alone) with sincere Faith in the (1) Oneness of His Lordship,(2) Oneness of His worship, and (3) Oneness of His Names and Qualities], while he is a Muhsin (gooddoer i.e. performs good deeds totally for Allâh's sake without any show-off or to gain praise or fame etc. and does them in accordance with theSunnah of Allâh's Messenger Muhammad SAW), then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold [Lâ ilâha ill-Allâh (none has the right to be worshipped but Allâh)]. And to Allâh return all matters for decision.
from the above ayah, we know that our job is to differentiate the good from the bad and is our responsibility to do good deeds. and after all the hardships, our next job is to rely and depends on Allah or what we usually called as TAWAKKAL..and the next step is to accept whatever outcomes either good or vice versa..or people usually called as REDHA..said is easier than done aite..yup that's right..but to note that how meaningful and sweet life would be by depending and hoping upon Him is uncountable..to WORK extra vaganza, to TAWAKAL and REDHA..and plus to PRAY very hard..
the next ayah that opened my eyes is verse 27
وَلَوْ أَنَّمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ أَقْلَامٌ وَالْبَحْرُ يَمُدُّهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ سَبْعَةُ أَبْحُرٍ مَا نَفِدَتْ كَلِمَاتُ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ
And if all the trees on the earth were pens and the sea (were ink wherewith to write), with seven seas behind it to add to its (supply), yet the Words of Allâh would not be exhausted. Verily, Allâh is AllMighty, AllWise.
this ayah really made me realize that how little knowledge that occupy my tremendous pc BRAIN..how much i lack in terms of knowledge..how much i envy those previous Islamic scholars who able to master in various scope of knowledge..and at the same time, being the best person who LOVES and WORSHIPS Allah..as we're given the same 24 HOURS, what were their recipes of success..one thing that they all have in similarities were BLESSING FROM ALLAH..
