📌 Allah tests and nurtures people through trials and hardships, essential for personal growth.
📌 Patience and perseverance in the face of difficulties lead to guidance, spiritual development, and divine blessings. Allah rewards the patient and strengthens individuals through such tests.
📌 Just as surgery and bitter medicine heal the body, calamities foster spiritual growth and maturity.
📌 Negligence leads to failure and ruin.
📌 Many people today neglect the afterlife and are preoccupied with worldly pleasures, which diverts them from the purpose of their creation.
📌 Those solely pursuing worldly comforts often mistake life’s purpose as mere indulgence in material pleasures. Such neglect entails significant risks.
📌 Allah warns of the day when humans will stand before Him and be informed of their deeds. This pivotal day will leave some ashamed and others joyous with Allah’s approval.
📌 People must never forget death, the Day of Judgment, and accountability for their actions.
📌 Many waste their time on futile matters that neither yield material nor spiritual benefits.
📌 Neglecting remembrance of Allah can lead to sin and severe consequences in the afterlife.
📌 Allah created humanity for His worship.
📌 Worship isn’t confined to prostration but encompasses adherence to all divine commands and avoidance of sin.
📌 Avoiding sin is the greatest form of worship, followed by obeying divine commandments.
📌 Worship extends beyond personal actions; it involves individual and societal reform.
📌 Many struggle to understand life’s purpose, with some contemplating suicide.
📌 The purpose of creation, as decreed by Allah, is worship and servitude.
📌 Suicide is strictly prohibited in Islam and is considered a grave sin.
📌 No one has the right to take their own life or that of another.
📌 The oppressed, regardless of location, deserve compassion and support.
📌 If we cannot directly assist the oppressed in Palestine or other places, we can at least pray for them and send financial aid. These contributions can offer comfort and resolve.
