Well-Arranged Stages, Gradually.

 

“Those who rwject Faith say: “Why is not the Qur’an revealed to him all at once? Thus (it is revealed) that We may strengthen thy heart thereby, and We have rehearsed it to thee in slow, well- arranged  stages, gradually”.  (Al Furqan: 32).

 

Al Qur’anul Karim, which Allah has sent down, bringing blessing, and confirming the revelation which came before it, that Allah swt. warn the Mother of Cities ‘Makkah Al Mukaramah and all around her. Those who believe in the Hereafter believe in this Holy Book. And they are constant in guarding their Prayers.

 

 “And when there comes to them aBook from Allah, confirming what is with them, although from of old they had prayed for victory against those without Faith; when there comes to them that which they (should) have recognised, they refuse to believe in it.

But the curse of Allah is on those without Faith”.

(Al Baqarah: 89).                                Bandung, 9 Shafar 1428 H.

 

 

Work Hard Sincerely.

 

               To those who work hard and struggle sincerely to earn their living, walk on the path of Allah and His Messenger, such men will get His Bestow and Mercy,Not to those who just sit enjoying their excessive and spending their life time for the uncertainty.

                  The life of this world is a quite decisive arena, not merely for game and amusement,

Lost indeed are they who treat the Guidance as a falsehood; that they must meet Allah.

 

“Not equal are those Believers who sit (at home) and receive no hurt, and those who strive and struggle in the cause of Allah with their goods and their persons.

Allah hath granted a grade higher to those who strive and struggle with their goods and persons than to those who sit (at home) unto all (in faith) hath Allah promised good.

But those strive and struggle hath He distinguished above those who sit (at home) by a Special Reward”.    (An Nisa: 95).

He Raised to Degrees of Honour.

 

“So he (Joseph) began (the search) with their baggage, before (he came to) the baggage of his brother, at length he brought it out of his brother baggage. Thus did We plan for Joseph. He couldnot take his brother by the law of the king except that Allah willed it (so).

We raise to degrees (of Wisdom) whom We please, but over all endued with knowledge is One, the All-Knowing” (Yusuf: 76).

 

To His Apostles, Allah endowed with Gifts, some above others, to one of them Allah spoke; Others He raised to degrees of honour, gave clear signs and strengthened with holy spirit.

The mysteries of life and everything around are in His hands.

The duty of mankind is to find out the right path of His Guidance, upright Prayer and Charity, Shalat and Zakat.

 

“By Allah ‘s will they routed them; and David slew Goliath; and Allah gave him Power and Wisdom, and taught him whatever (else) he willed. And did not Allah check one set of people by means of another; The Earth would indeed be full of mischief; But Allah is full of Bounty to all the worlds”. (Al Baqarah: 251).
