نكابر فى مشاعرنا نسينا عيوننا تحكي

"We try to hide our felings, but we forgot that our eyes speak"

Virtues of Surah Yaseen.

💫According to one Hadeeth, Allah Ta'allah recited Surah Yaseen and Surah Taha one thousand years before the creation of the Heaven and the Earth, and on hearing this, the angels said: "Blessing is for that Ummat unto whom the Quraan will be sent down, blessings is for the hearts which will bear (memorize it) and blessings is for the tongues which will recite it".

💫"Whoever reads Surah Yaseen for the pleasure of Allah only, all his previous sins are forgiven. Therefore make a practice of reading this Surah over your dead"

💫 "The person who reads Yaseen every night, (he) will he pardoned."
💫 " The person who reads Yaseen every night, thus when he dies , he will die as a Shaheed (mytor)."

💫 "The person who reads Surah Yaseen(once), Allah will record for its reader a reward equal to reading the Quraan ten times."

💧Silent Tears💧

The wind carried away his silent tears, to a distant land where the pleas of the heart remained untold,
B

uried deep within the depths of the earth, locked up deep in his heart, he refused to let his emotions unfold...

Amongst the hubbub of the world, his display of stregnth remained intact,
O

nce he was hidden from the sympathetic gazes of people , he unleashed that which he encaged and trapped...

While reciting the speech of Allah, solace encompassed his soul, he allowed the flow of his silent tears,
T

he pure words of the Quraan soothed him, engulfed him in peace subdued, and ceased his initial fears.

Indeed the fruit of his heart, the coolness of his eyes now departed from this world , his mother dear,
R

ecalling every sweet memory,holding close her favourite shawl , smelling her sweet scent, would cause his constantly glassy eyes to tear,

He believed, he had faith ,he would be strong, as firm as a mountain. To Allah we belong , and to Allah we shall return,
B

y displaying beautiful patience, by supplicating ,rewards he would earn.

While reciting the speech of Allah, solace encompassed his soul, he allowed the flow of his silent tears,
T

he pure words of Quraan soothed him, engulfed him in peace, subdued and ceased his initial fears....

(Jauhariy)

Oh you who hankers for the world, do you know not that this worldly life is nothing, but play, amusement , adornment, boasting with one another. Eleborate preparations are made for functions that last a few hours, preperations are made for holidays, money wasted on ferveless things, we are not even certain if we will live till the next day, we are not even certain if we shall be able to breathe the next minute, yet we spend months, weeks, days, precious hours of our life, preparing for elaborate functions, wasting our time unecessarily roaming malls for hours on end, hosting futile gatherings wherin sin, and backbiting takes place.

Have we ever, just stopped and pondered over the fact that we are merely travellers , that are passing through this world? Have we ever attempted to convince our souls, not to get carried away and attached to this world ? Have we even realised that our true and eternal home is the Aakhira?....

We haven't ! We have become so involved in the rat race of this world, we have become so enchanted by the facade of beauty of this world , we have become so engrossed in the sick and twisted system of the world that...we have forgotten our purpose of being created and placed in the world , we have been created to worship Allah The Only Being Who deserves to be worshipped, not to worship and abide by the whims and desires of people.

The figure of a boy who felt like he lost a part of his heart, sprawled upon his bed, encompassed by darkness, all these thoughts whizzed through his mind. Never had he pondered over death this deeply, never had he seriously given thought to how he would fare in the hereafter, and now  there he mused , blinking in the dark, imagining what it must be like to be buried six feet down, sarrounded with soil, immersed in darkness.

Had he gathered enough actions ? had he pleased Allah enough to be blessed with an illuminated grave, to be fortunate enough to abide in a grave from among the gardens of Jannah ? Or would his grave be a pit from amongst the pits of Jahannam ?
May Allah save us all.

He no longer wished to have a flippant attitude , he wished no more to live a life of folly, he would endeavour to become a better person, a person who will make the obedience of Allah his priority.

Perhaps some times in life , you need to lose someone dear to you , to realise their worth, perhaps sometimes the death of someone is a lesson for you, a warning for you , to wake up and strive to achieve the pleasure or your Lord!

Indeed for Khair his mother's loss , taught him many lessons , and perhaps would be a way for him to  become closer to Allah....

The wind carried away his tears to a distant land, where the pleas of the heart remain untold ,

Buried deep within the depths of the earth , locked away in his heart , he refused to let his emotions unfold.

Oh silent tears and ceasing fears ...
