'Ibrahim Ibn Adham' said, when he was asked about the verse: 'Call upon Me and I will respond to you' - [Quran 40:60]. They said: We call upon Allah, but He does not respond to us. So he said:
You believe in the existence of Allah;
But you do not fulfill His commands.
You read the Holy Quran;
But you do not put it into practice.
You acknowledge the devil as your enemy;
But you do not go against him.
You say you love Prophet Muhammed (PBUH);
But you do not follow His Sunnah (Guidance way).
You want to enter Paradise;
But you do not work for it.
You do not want to enter hellfire;
But you do not stop sinning.
You say, indeed death is true;
But you do not prepare for it.
You gossip and find faults in others;
But you forget your own faults and bad habits.
You enjoy the benefits from Allah;
But you are not grateful to Him.
You bury the dead;
But you do not take a lesson from it.
Note From Me ^_^:
Assalamualakum. Allah gives so much and the least thing
we can do is obey Him. To pray, to follow the sunnah, to
read and implement the Quran is what we should do.
Doing these things are for our advantage because Allah doesn't
command us to do somehting unless it is for our own benefit.
Applying these righteous deeds acts like a surrounding shield of
noble light that protects you from evilness.
You have to remember that we are at constant war. Who
is our enenmy? The devil. The devil will do anything to
bring you down and Allah is merciful to us and wants us
to do good in this world so no evil will harm you.
Allah loves and wants the best for all and let us show our
appreciation through righteous conduct.
''May Allah show righteousness to all and may we willingly & eternally follow it :) - ameeen!''
Do not let evil become your pilot be in control of yourself by following sweet Allah . .
