والله أعلمُ بالـصـواب
And Allah knows best.
Don’t know much about it and don’t care.
So… it’s their cousin’s fault? Or maybe aunty’s? Please.
Wasalam,
Ever since I was introduced to his lectures on YouTube by a good friend a while back, Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad has been my cornerstone of an ideal contemporary Muslim (a leader, even) I aspire to be.
I was quite apprehensive about being a speaker at CSP in fear of misconstrued intent from both the audience and my own consciousness.
Eventually, after so many positive discourse among like-minded practicioners of faith, and having you share this information nullifies my initial reluctance. Moreover, the surprise presence by Shaykh himself was so mind-blowing that I am now beyond glad I agreed to attend the event.
I have perpetually heard mentions of Syed Naquib during my studies but have not yet read any of his materials to date. This should be a good start. Thank you so much for recommending :)
Jazakallah!
When you love someone you would do almost anything for them. Love involves trust, passion, and everything related. You feel like youre in a whole different planet when youre with your loved one and nobody else matters. It starts with the littlelest things. Holding hands, gentle touches, hugs, kisses, sex(if you trust them that is, and in most cases you do). But you have to admit that even if you promise your boyfriend that youll stay together forever, its never guaranteed. You wont know what might happen, lifes a mystery. And that is why, in Islam we were taught about sanctity in relationships. When you really love someone. Seal the deal. Marry them. Then do whatever you want. Thats how you preserve your relationship. Thats how you live together foreve til jannah in sya Allah.
Maybe she was looking in all the wrong places. After all, he was just a dunya guy, he would give her the happiness of the dunya for just a few day, weeks, months maybe and then they would never be the ‘happily ever after couple’ like Muhammad sallallahu alyhe wa sallam and Khadijah radi Allah hu Anha.
For she realized that a bond made for the sake of the dunya lacked the basic crucial ingredient: the barakah of Allah. If she started a relationship which wasn’t blessed by Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala, she would ruin her entire life for the man who looked so charming but whose heart was attached to the dunya.
She was concerned about her future progeny and she decided that she didn’t want to raise up her future children oblivious and ignorant of Islam. She decided that she’d look at his deen, his character and his ikhlaq, for if those qualities in him were well grounded, he would turn into the greatest blessing of her life - her better half.
With all the traffic of thoughts in her mind, she came across a verse in the Quran which lay open in her hands and the verse she saw made her cry and she made sincere dua from her heart and decided that she wanted her better half to be someone who would hold her hand, help bring the Sunnah and Shariah in her life, take her out for ice-cream, help solve all her problems and when he couldnt he would be just a good listener and also he would take her to jannah. The verse she read was:
One of His signs is that He created for you spouses of your own species, so that you might find comfort with them. And He put mutual love and affection in your hearts. Surely in this there are lessons for the thinking people.” [30:21]
