I couldn't think of a better start to write this article right after offering Salah.. A proof that you trust Him.. Your Lord.
As a youth I can attest to the fact that many young people especially Muslims, lack this basic 'necessity' - Trust and Faith in Allah. Little do they know that this is the little secret ingredient to their success.. In this world and the hereafter.
Not jumping into the practices of Islam, the point I want to put forward is.. PRAY. PRAY when in DISTRESS. PRAY when in HAPPINESS. PRAY when in FRUSTRATION. PRAY when in ANGER. Just PRAY.
It is a matter of great sadness that people often forget that their source of peace and contentment isn't money or life insurance plans or rather beauty kits for the delicate darling beauties..
I can assure you readers, that the REAL source of peace and contentment is when you put your forehead on the ground in Sujood and feel blessed because not everyone are 'chosen' to perform this act which is the most beloved to Your Creator!
Wait.. What am I saying?! We are in such a period where we don't even know what it feels like to be at peace.. CRISES!!!
Trust me on this ya'll future of this Ummah! Just once, Make wudhu.. As the water runs down your hands, your sins get washed off.. Such a beauty Subhanallah! When you walk out and recite 'I bear witness there is no God but Allah, none has the right to be worshipped but Him. And Muhammad is his slave and Prophet' you would have already gained this spiritual feeling (NO not like the orthodox babaji's!!)
A spiritual feeling that would urge you to get even more closer to the One who created YOU!
As you place the musallah (carpet) for prayer and recite takbeer, you would have chills in your body only with the thought that you are standing in front of The Master of the Worlds! (Not to be mistaken with the chills during winter!!!)
In prostration, cry out your frustration, fear and faults. Ask your Lord.
He is The One who has control on the tiniest of objects.. From the grasses in the sea, the varied species of fishes, the waves, the storms, the land.. To the skies that stands without any support except with the will of Allah, the stars, the moon, the unpredicted rain for that matter! And EVERYTHING in between..
I swear that experiance can ONLY be felt and NEVER be described. It is a feeling that is only between you and the One who created you.
Take this first step towards The Creator. Allah promises that if you take a step towards Him, He will take 10 STEPS towards you!! (Authenticity : Sahih Bukhari)
You would only gained treasures, UNIMAGINABLE.
I would like to underpin my article with a verse from my favourite book.. I will leave
for you to figure that book..
"Then when you have taken a decision, put your trust in Allah, certainly Allah loves those who put their trust (in Him)"
- Surah Al Imran. Verse 109.
As Salam Alykum.
