Bismillah. Assalaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakaatuh Yaa Muslimaat, alhamdulillah
How often do we think about the air we breathe or the water that we’re drinking? How often do we thank Allah for these blessings that rarely cross our minds?
If you are a person who is prone to thinking deeply, then these things may cross your thoughts many times. We are taught that we cannot possibly count the favors that the All-mighty has provided for us. May Allah aide us in remembrance of Him often allahumma aameen. May Allah bless us to be from those who are thankful for his favors allahumma aameen and not to be from those who are ungrateful allahumma aameen
I’m mentioning this reminder based on the following:
After reading this, does it make you reflect? Did it make you thank Allah? To make Dua for those from the ummah that may be suffering? At least ask questions about the favors that you and your family enjoy?
Hud 11:73
قَالُوٓا۟ أَتَعْجَبِينَ مِنْ أَمْرِ ٱللَّهِۖ رَحْمَتُ ٱللَّهِ وَبَرَكَٰتُهُۥ عَلَيْكُمْ أَهْلَ ٱلْبَيْتِۚ إِنَّهُۥ حَمِيدٌ مَّجِيدٌ
English – Mohsin Khan/Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
They said: “Do you wonder at the Decree of Allâh? The Mercy of Allâh and His Blessings be on you, O the family [of Ibrâhîm (Abraham)]. Surely, He (Allâh) is All-Praiseworthy, All-Glorious.”
English – Tafsir Ibn Kathir
Surely, He (Allah) is All-Praiseworthy, All-Glorious.
This means that He is the Most Praiseworthy in all of His actions and statements. He is praised and glorified in His Attributes and His Self.
The greatest favor that has been bestowed upon me and you. Is being a believer, a Muslimah, guided upon the truth in shaa’Allaah
Ibrahim 14:34
وَءَاتَىٰكُم مِّن كُلِّ مَا سَأَلْتُمُوهُۚ وَإِن تَعُدُّوا۟ نِعْمَتَ ٱللَّهِ لَا تُحْصُوهَآۗ إِنَّ ٱلْإِنسَٰنَ لَظَلُومٌ كَفَّارٌ
English – Mohsin Khan/Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
And He gave you of all that you asked for, and if you count the Blessings of Allâh, never will you be able to count them. Verily, man is indeed an extreme wrong-doer, a disbeliever (an extreme ingrate who denies Allâh’s Blessings by disbelief, and by worshipping others besides Allâh, and by disobeying Allâh and His Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه و سلم).
English – Tafsir Ibn Kathir
Alhamdulillah may Allah bless me and you too be always thankful for his blessings and guidance allahumma aameen 💜
From your sister in Islam always in need of Allah’s mercy
