My dear brothers and sisters..

Thanks Allah night and day! ^_^

A mukmin will never fail to worship Allah. Being grateful to Allah is strongly emphasised as an attribute in the Holy Qur’an. Allah, who promises to reward those who appreciate his favors, says, “We will reward the grateful.” In the Qur’an (3:145), furthermore, He, Sub’hanahu Wa ta’ala, assures his servants that gratefulness begets more favors. Allah says, “if you are grateful, I will surely increase you (in favor) Qur’an (14:7).

Prophet Mohammad would spend the whole night in worship and supplications to Allah so much that his feet would swell and bleed. Aisha asked him, messenger of Allah, why do you undertake so much hardship when all your previous and prospective sins have been forgiven by Almighty Allah? The prophet replied. “Shouldn’t I be a grateful servant to Allah?” (Bukhari and Muslim).

Subhanallah!

What about us??

Forgive me when I whine by Zain Bikha

Today, upon a bus I saw a girl with golden hair,
And in my heart I wished that I was just as fair
When suddenly she rose to leave, I saw her hobble down the aisle.
She had one leg and wore a crutch, but as she passed, a smile.
Oh Allah, Oh Allah, forgive me when I whine.
I have 2 legs to walk upon and the world is mine.

I stopped to buy some candy; met a boy who had such charm.
We talked, he seemed so happy, if I were late, it do no harm.
And as I left, he said to me, 'Thank you, you've been so kind.
It's nice to talk with folks like you. You see,' he said, 'I'm blind.'
Oh Allah, Oh Allah, forgive me when I whine.
I have 2 eyes to see the world and the world is mine.

Later that day on my way, I saw a boy with eyes of blue.
He watched the other children play; he did not know what to do.
I stopped a moment, then I said, 'Why don't you join the others, dear?'
He kept on looking straight ahead and then I knew he could not hear
Oh Allah, Oh Allah, forgive me when I whine.
I have 2 ears to hear the world and world is mine.

With legs to take me where I'd go.
With eyes to see the sunset glow.
With ears to hear what I'd know
Oh the world is mine

I stopped for a moment, just look how much I have
Everywhere, in all our lives, these are His signs

Oh Allah, Oh Allah, forgive me when I whine.
I have been blessed indeed, and the world is mine
Oh Allah, Oh Allah, forgive me when I whine.
I have been blessed indeed, and the world is mine
