Appreciating Allaah

In the Name of Allaah, the Entirely Merciful, the Especially Merciful. 

"We will show them Our Signs in the universe, and within themselves, until it becomes clear to them that it (the Qur'an) is the truth. Is it not sufficient in regard to your Lord that He is a witness over all things?." Q41:53

Look around you, nay look at your own creation...from a clay, to a drop of sperm, to a clot of blood, to a flesh to a life being. Allaah Alone is able to this.

The earth belongs to Allaah, the crops and the grains belong to Allaah, the rain cloud containing about 300,000,000 litres of water belong to Allaah.

Our observable universe, nay our milky way is housing around 300 billion stars according to the estimate of astronomers.

It was said that if a second is given each to name all the stars in our Milky Way, it will take about 300 trillion years and yet we will not know their exact total.

‎The sun that rose 50,000 years ago still rose today and will rise tomorrow from the same point and direction. Allaah is the Lord of perfection and orderliness.

 ‎

Is there anyone besides Allaah who is controlling the universe? 

Pay attention! Creation belongs to Allaah, Decree belongs to Allaah. 

‎No sustainer besides Allaah and d‎ependence on Allaah is the key to a perfect life. ‎

‎

It's not our intelligence, it's not our connections, it's not our planning that gives us wealth it's what Allaah has decreed that comes to us and this meets us earlier than our death would.

‎Look around you, which animal do you see stocking food for the next day, yet they get sustenance when it comes. Only Allaah provides.

 ‎

‎Fear Allaah and He will protect you and know that ‎the value of a believer is not kept in pounds and shillings nor in naira and kobo, the criterion of a believer is kept in Eeman, his adherence to the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (Pbuh), his absolute dependence on Allaah for everything and good character.

Above Allaah, to fully appreciate your Allaah, fear Him at all times, spend your days in fasting and brighten your nights with Tahajjud.

May Allaah make it easy for us to practice what we preach.
