subhan Allah, wa al-hamdu lillah, la illaha illa Allah, wa Allahu akbar

Subhan Allah:


Do they not observe the birds above them, spreading their wings and folding them in? None can uphold them except ((Allah)) Most Gracious: Truly ((Allah)) Most Gracious: Truly it is He that watches over all things.
( سورة الملك , Al-Mulk, Chapter #67, Verse #19)

This verse made my heart sink in, it's true, how else do they give flight? They need Allah's leave. Imagine, they can have wings and yet never fly, had Allah willed that they not use them. subHan Allah.

wa al-hamdu lillah:

Narrated Sa'd: 'Umar bin Al-Khattab asked permission of Allah's Apostle to see him while some Quraishi women were sitting with him and they were asking him to give them more financial support while raising their voices over the voice of the Prophet. When 'Umar asked permission to enter, all of them hurried to screen themselves the Prophet admitted 'Umar and he entered, while the Prophet was smiling. 'Umar said, "May Allah always keep you smiling, O Allah's Apostle! Let my father and mother be sacrificed for you !" The Prophet said, "I am astonished at these women who were with me. As soon as they heard your voice, they hastened to screen themselves." 'Umar said, "You have more right, that they should be afraid of you, O Allah's Apostle!" And then he ('Umar) turned towards them and said, "O enemies of your souls! You are afraid of me and not of Allah's Apostle?" The women replied, "Yes, for you are sterner and harsher than Allah's Apostle." Allah's Apostle said, "O Ibn Al-Khattab! By Him in Whose Hands my life is, whenever Satan sees you taking a way, he follows a way other than yours!" (Book #73, Hadith #108)

subHan Allah, imagine seeing the prophet's smile!!! -smiles- salla Allahu `alayhi wa sallam. Ya Allah, just to see that smile. Subhan Allah, and 'Umar, subhan Allah Shaytan would run away from him! It makes me wonder... do the things I do make Shaytan run towards me? or run away? .. ya Rab.

al-hamdu lillah... for learning, for striving, ... and indeed if I need to smile to my parents to chase away Shaytan and earn Allah's pleasure, then I'll do it. Allahu Musta`an. (and thank you for helping me with that, I need to better myself... dunya is hard sometimes).

la illaha illa Allah:

The first thing we read when we open the Qur'an are these words:

In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
( سورة الفاتحة , Al-Fatiha, Chapter #1, Verse #1)

yaaaaaaaa Allah... what more can anyone ask for?

wa Allahu Akbar:

Allah is in control ... and everything that happens, happens by His Wisdom. Trusting in Allah is beautiful, there is no greater protector, greater friend, greater companion... Allahu akbar! That's another reason to smile.

-smiles-

and for His forgiveness... and for Ar-Rahman to have Mercy and love us.. here's this beautiful surah that may just (by Allah's mercy) protect us from the wrath of Allah in the grave.. ya Allah.... I need to memorize this Surah... i need it.
