A Reflection before breaking fast !

Alhamdulillah,today I learnt 3 things and I would like to share with you all:

1.Help yourself by helping others- 

The Prophet Muhammad (salallahu alaihi wa sallam) said, 
“Whoever relieves a believer of a hardship from the hardships of this world, then Allah will relieve him of a hardship from the hardships of the Day of Resurrection… Allah is helping the servant as long as the servant is helping his brother,” 

[Hadith Tirmidhi /Muslim]. 

Helping others doesn’t have to consist of anything grand. 

Even a smile is sadaqah.

Removing a harmful thing from the road is sadaqah.

Speaking gentle words to someone in distress,or feeding a meal to someone who is hungry, 

or making a donation to help an orphan… or donating blood, or working a few hours a month for a
charity, or visiting someone who is sick… all those things are valuable.


They are not nothing. They are important and worthwhile acts. 


I really understood that today.In the process of explaining and consoling someone,I received happiness I cannot
describe. 



2.Bond of sisterhood:

I understood how Islam can unite people-2 strangers so to say,in the bond of sisterhood or brotherhood.

How you wish to help each other and want the best for the other,Allahu Akbar! 

Only Islam,i repeat,only Islam can do that..when u love and care for someone for Allah's Sake.

Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said :

"None of you will believe until you love for your brother what you love for yourself."

3.A dawah experience-

How arrogant a human being can be to just listen to the message !

You may have a strong worldly bond with that person but in the end Alhamdulillah,faith is victorious! 


How insignificant we are and how we are in need of Allaah and Allaah does not need us. 

That we are just one person who is a in a city, which is in a country, which is on a planet, what is in
the milky way, which is amongst an abundance of galaxies and Allaah is the creator of ALL of that- which just
shows in reality we are just a speck within a speck within a speck within a speck ! 


We're all weak, SubhanAllaah and Allah is Powerful. 

May Allaah protect us from kibr and give us the tawfique to be grateful to Allaah and worship him Alone.Aameen
