What is the Goal of life? What is missing from our lives? Where is our time being spent?
How should we achieve this goal?
Allah says in the Quran -
"By Al-'Asr (the time)
Verily! Man is in loss,
Except those who believe (in Islâmic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds, and recommend one another to the truth (i.e. order one another to perform all kinds of good deeds (Al-Ma'rûf) which Allâh has ordained, and abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds (Al-Munkar) which Allâh has forbidden), and recommend one another to patience (for the sufferings, harms, and injuries which one may encounter in Allâh's Cause during preaching His religion of Islâmic Monotheism)"
(Quran [103] Surah Al-'Asr (The Time)

MashaAllah Im so happy to be Muslim almost 4 years

[@maryammirza7119]

Alhamdulillah

[@Maham-ho9tc]

Masha Allah 😍

[@wardachrouaa7281]

I cried… may Allah forgive my family in law who insulted me, who yelled in my face to get me angry, who tried everything to make me go over the line to proove to people how bad I am, as they tried to have my husband divorce me, as they took over one of our two houses without asking, as they stole from my house, and slandered my honour… Allah knows I didn't raise my voice to them, I didn't insult them, didn't treat them badly, opened my house for them whenever they were there, knowing they'd come to break me down. I'd stay calm and patient as they were there but would cry when they left. I became physically ill from their bad behaviour and all the rights they stole from me. Allah knows how many times the shaytan whispered in my ear to take revenge. Allah knows how much I started hating them, hoping of a calamity to befall them. And then Allah opened His door of Rahmah. He let us live so far from eachother that I'd only see them once a year. I've been rethinking everything that happened between us. All the wrong they did me, all the harm and difficulties. And I am happy to have become to the next level: I don't hate them anymore. In fact, I see how much sorrow they gather from their longing for dunya. May Allah forgive them for everything they did to me. I can visit them now, and feel mercyvtowards them. I smile from my heart, keep a low profile, keep busy with my 'ibadah, and help them where I can. 10 years of bullying, having stood on the edge of becoming like them,… Allah is greater then it all. This world is just an exam that will cease to exist soon. I love my Rabb, Who protected me, Who upheld my marriage, Who gave me all the rizq I have, Who guided me. How I long to have the blessing of watching His Face! اللهم اغفر لقومي فإنهم لا يعلمون!

"And hasten to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for the righteous" Quran 3:133 This is just what we need! We do not have a problem believing in Allah swt rather obeying Allah swt. Our intention, action of obedience will bring us success and peace in this life and the hereafter.

[@sarahmahammad]

I have no problem swallowing my anger and letting go of people's bad deeds or bad saying most of the time, but I struggle with forgiving them true forgiveness and making dua for them sometimes, which makes it difficult to break the hurt energy cycle. Thank you for reminding us!🙏🌺

50 Reasons Muhammad Was Not a Prophet Why should the entire world reject Muhammad as a prophet? Here are 50 reasons: 1. When Muhammad began receiving revelations, his first impression of these revelations was that they were demonic. 2. Muhammad was so traumatized by his encounter with "Gabriel" that he repeatedly tried to commit suicide by hurling himself off a cliff. 3. According to Muslim sources, Muhammad once delivered a revelation from the devil (the "Satanic Verses"). 4. Muhammad claimed that he was a victim of a magic spell that gave him delusional thoughts and false beliefs. 5. Islam promotes idolatry (e.g., bowing down to the Kaaba and kissing the black stone). 6. Islam promotes pagan rituals (e.g., the pilgrimage to Mecca). 7. Islam deifies Muhammad by requiring unconditional obedience to him and by requiring Muslims to talk to him during their daily prayers. 8. After leaving Mecca, Muhammad supported his religion by robbing people. 9. Muhammad ordered his followers to torture a man named Kinana to find out where some money was hidden. Muhammad then had Kinana killed, and took his wife for himself. 10. Muhammad commanded his followers to kill critics of Islam. 11. Muhammad ordered his followers to kill apostates, even if they had good reasons for leaving Islam. 12. The Qur'an commands Muslims to violently subjugate Jews and Christians. 13. The Qur'an claims that stars are missiles that Allah uses to shoot demons. 14. The Qur'an claims that the sun sets in a pool of murky water. 15. Muhammad's teachings about personal hygiene would lead to death if Muslims took them seriously. 16. Muhammad claimed that Gabriel explained to him why children look like one parent or the other. Gabriel's answer is completely false. 17. When Muhammad was too shy to tell his dinner guests to leave, Allah stepped in with a special revelation that should make everyone wonder whether Muhammad's revelations really have anything to do with God. 18. The Qur'an declares that Christians find Muhammad mentioned in our scriptures. Yet our scriptures call Muhammad an antichrist. 19. In the Qur'an, Allah promises to kill Muhammad by severing his aorta if Muhammad invents a false revelation. When Muhammad died, he said he could feel his aorta being severed. 20. The Qur'an contains a prophecy that wasn't fulfilled. 21. The Qur'an presents a test for divine inspiration, but fails the test. 22. The central argument for the inspiration of the Qur'an is the "Argument from Literary Excellence," which is absurd on multiple levels. 23. The author of the Qur'an doesn't know that Miriam, the sister of Aaron and Moses, is a different person from Mary, the mother of Jesus (because their names are the same in Arabic). 24. The Qur'an claims that Alexander the Great and Aesop were devout Muslims. 25. Allah promises to protect the Qur'an from corruption, but the Qur'an has been corrupted (by Muslim standards). 26. Muslims believe that the Qur'an is Allah's eternal Word. Yet Allah repeatedly changes his eternal mind about his eternal Word via abrogation. 27. The Qur'an is missing at least two verses in which Allah commands grown women to breastfeed grown men in order to prevent sexual misconduct. 28. The Qur'an contains numerous false stories that were plagiarized from other sources. 29. Muhammad allowed his followers to hire prostitutes. 30. The Qur'an allows Muslim men to have up to four wives at a time. But Muhammad received a special revelation giving him (and him alone) the right to break the four-wife limit. 31. Muhammad had sex with a prepubescent nine-year-old girl named Aisha. 32. The Qur'an allows Muslim men to beat their wives into submission. 33. Islam allows Muslim men to rape their female captives and slave-girls. 34. Muhammad married the divorced wife of his own adopted son (after Muhammad caused the divorce), and the Qur'an offers an absurd defense of Muhammad's actions. 35. When Muhammad's wife Sauda became fat and unattractive, Muhammad intended to divorce her. Sauda had to relinquish some of her marital rights to avoid being abandoned. 36. After Muhammad got caught having sex with his slave girl in the bed of one of his wives, he swore that he would stop having sex with his slave-girl. Allah ordered him to break that oath. 37. Muhammad claimed that women are less intelligent and less moral than men. 38. When Muhammad's wives asked why he was giving special privileges to Aisha, he justified his actions by saying that he received revelations while wearing Aisha's dress! 39. According to the Qur'an, Allah has no love for unbelievers. 40. According to the Qur'an, Allah is the "best of deceivers." 41. According to Muhammad, Allah wants people to sin, and he threatens us with annihilation if we refuse to sin. 42. Since Allah would destroy us for not sinning, the true savior of humanity, according to Islam, is Satan, who tempts human beings to sin and therefore protects us from being destroyed. 43. Muhammad didn't know whether he would go to heaven or hell when he died. 44. Islam teaches that Allah will punish Jews and Christians in hell for the sins of Muslims. 45. Muhammad promises his followers a paradise in which Allah will bless them with eternal erections so that they can continually deflower their virgins. 46. Islam affirms the inspiration, preservation, and authority of the Jewish and Christian scriptures, yet Islam contradicts these scriptures on a fundamental level. 47. Islam claims to respect and honor Jesus, yet it portrays him as a complete failure. 48. Muslims believe that the Gospel has been corrupted. But according to Islam, part of the Gospel was corrupted by Allah himself. 49. Islam reverses the Gospel by having the guilty Judas die on behalf of the innocent Jesus, rather than the innocent Jesus dying on behalf of sinners. 50. Christianity is confirmed by Jesus' resurrection from the dead. Since Islam contradicts Christianity, and has no comparable confirmation from God, we must reject Islam.

I'm presently leaving at minute marker [22:3] Among the people, there are those who argue about GOD without knowledge, and follow every rebellious devil. [22:4] It is decreed that anyone who allies himself with him, he will mislead him and guide him to the agony of Hell.

[@BestIsntEasy]

The Messenger's Language [14:4] We did not send any messenger except (to preach) in the tongue of his people, in order to clarify things for them. GOD then sends astray whomever He wills, and guides whomever He wills. He is the Almighty, the Most Wise. *2:285 One of the major commandments is: 👉 "You shall not make any distinction among God's messengers" 👈 ([2:136] Say, "We believe in GOD, and in what was sent down to us, and in what was sent down to Abraham, Ismail, Isaac, Jacob, and the Patriarchs; and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and all the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction among any of them. To Him alone we are submitters."

[@upintheclouds8036]

[And rush to the forgiveness of your Lord and a paradise that is as vast as the heavans and the earth..] Salaam. So I was listening to Sh. Omar when he took that ayah and applied it to the three principles of happiness. Sh. Omar says that the "and rush" gives you something to do and that "the forgiveness of your lord" gives you something to love and that "a paradise" gives you somewhere to go. I had no problem understanding the first alhamduliLah but, as for the last two, do they both not fall under the "gives you somewhere to go" principle? The ayah says to the forgivess of your Lord AND a paradise as vast as the heavens and the earth. And while Allah's forgiveness is not a destination one can physically rush to, it is a goal one yearns to achieve. I hope I'm making sense. Can someone please explain? Jazaak Allah khair.
