Regarding this world.....

The Prophet Muhammad said
" The one who makes this world his focus, God will deprive him of contentment and heartfelt satisfaction. He will remain ever in greedy pursuit of wealth and unattainable desires, and he will never receive more than the share that God has ordained for him.

Whoever makes their focus the next life, God will bestow contentment and heartfelt satisfaction on them. He will also protect them from being greedy for wealth, and they will get their allotted share in this world"

(Emerick, Y. 2000"The Meaning of the Holy Qu'ran in Today's English" pg. 296)

Dua for the struggles




These past few weeks have been difficult- I often found myself hungrey for a way to increase my deen, spend time improving myself. I did read some great novels about Mulsimahs [girl in the tangerine scarf and confessions of a gambler] and am now reading 'the faith club' I faltered at times and it was/is hard to remain strong when I so clearly see my faults. But I do know that I will falter here and there and to fall is to be human.
So this is my dua- Allah, please help me to remain devout, strong, and determined to improve myself with every day you bless me with. Please help me to remain positive-minded and to focus on the good and not the bad. Please help me to catch myself when I am not acting islamically and to not beat myself up about it but to learn from my mistake.

Alhamdulillah
