May You All Be Honeyed By Allāh

May You All Be Honeyed By Allāh !!
عسلكم الله جميعاً

قال رسول اللهﷺ : إذا أحب اللّه عبداً عسله ، قالوا : ما عسله؟ قال : يفتح الله عز وجل له عملاً صالحاً قبل موته ثم يقبضه عليه.

The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “If Allāh loves a person, he is honeyed by Him, they asked: ‘What is honeying him (means)?’, he said: “Allāh opens for him (the door of) a righteous deed before his death, then keeps him firm on it (until his death).”

● [ رواه أحمد ١٧٨١٩]

قال العلامة الألباني رحمه الله : وأمارة هذا التعسيل بأن يرضى عنه من حوله لما ثبت في زيادة مرفوعة للنبي صلى اللّه عليه وسلم : (.. حتى يرضى عنه من حوله) ، يقال بأن الشيخ الألباني رحمه الله يدعوا لمن صنع إليه معروفا بقوله: ( عسّلك الله ).

al-‘Allāmah al-Albāni Raḥimahullāh said: “And the sign of this honeying is that everyone around him become pleased with him as is proven in addition from Prophet ﷺ saying in Marfū’ form: ’.. until (everyone) from around him are pleased with him.’ • [الصحيحة ١١١٤],

It is said that Sh. al-Albānī (Allāh have mercy upon him) used to supplicate for the one who did a favor to him by saying: ‘May you be honeyed by Allāh’.”

O my Lord which of your slaves are the most pious?

Remember Him
قال (موسى) : يا رب ! أي عبادك أتقى ؟ قال (الله) : الذي يذكر ولا ينسى..

(Mūsā) said: “O my Lord which of your slaves are the most pious?”, (Allāh) said: “The one who remembers (Me) and does not forget..”

If mercy is shown to the good-doers, then the wrong-doer should not despair from it.

The End Of Ramaḍān

 

Ibn Rajab al-Ḥanbalī رحمه الله said these lines of poetry upon completion of Ramaḍān:

 

• Oh you, who your Lord has freed from the Fire, be warned of returning to the servitude of the wretched after being freed!

 

• Will your Lord distance you from the Fire, while you seek to become nearer to it?! He (Allāh) saved you from it, while you seek to throw yourself in it, and don’t care to protect yourself from it!

 

• If mercy is shown to the good-doers, then the wrong-doer should not despair from it, and if forgiveness is shown to those who have piety, then one who has wronged himself will not be deprived of it.

Hoping Good From Allāh : A Great Act Of Worship

قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : لا يموتن أحدكم إلا وهو يحسن الظن بالله تعالى.

The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Let none of you die except hoping (only) good from Allāh تعالى.”

● [رواه مسلم ، كتاب الجنة وصفة نعيمها وأهلها]

Sh. ‘Abdur-Razzāq al-Badr حفظه الله said in its explanation: “Having good thoughts of Allāh is an enormous act of worship and an obligation of Tawḥīd.”

Self Care

Self care ❤

Sometimes self care is getting up, making wudu, and praying two rakahs. Even if I don’t feel what I want to while doing it.

 

Sometimes self care is replying to the messages from people who care about me and genuinely want well for me. It’s going through with plans I said I would.

 

Sometimes self care is eating a proper breakfast and forcing myself to eat lunch because it might help to bring my appetite back.

 

Sometimes self care is opening the Quran and starting from the beginning all over. Going over His words for some ease and comfort.

 

Sometimes self care is laying my head on mom’s lap because it’s been a while since we actually talked.

 

Sometimes self care is giving my sisters the time of me they deserve with patience because I haven’t done that in a while.

 

Sometimes self care is trying for at least one day to not push people away. Instead bring them closer to me like they try because a day turns into a week.

 

Sometimes self care is cleaning even though I’m always organized.

 

Sometimes self care is doing what I’ve already been, being everybody’s go to person.

 

Sometimes self care is saying Alhamdulilah because I got this far. Sometimes self care is finding so much to be thankful for because it helps get through the day.

 

Sometimes self care is opening up the Quran and reading that ayah that I always tell others not to forget, forgetting it applies to me too. With hardship comes ease.

 

Sometimes self care is putting my headphones in and falling asleep to Quran like I used to when I was twelve. Sometimes self care is taking a deep breath and praying two rakahs before I go to bed.
