Shaykh Fath al-Mowsily relates, once I saw a young boy walking through the jungle. It appeared as if he was uttering some words. I greeted him with Salaam and he replied accordingly. I inquired, "Where are you going?" He retorted, "To the house of Allah (Makkah)." I further asked, "What are you reciting?" "The Qur'an" he replied. I remarked, "You are at a tender age, it is not an obligation that you are required to fulfill." He said, "I have witnessed death approach people younger than me and therefore would like to prepare if death was to knock on my door." I astoundingly commented, "Your steps are small and your destination far." He responded, "My duty is to take the step and it remains the responsibility of Allah to take me to my destination." I continued to ask, "Where is your provision and conveyance (means of transport)." He replied, "My Yaqeen (belief) is my provision and my feet's are my conveyance." I explained, "I am asking you regarding bread and water." He replied! "Oh Shaykh if someone invited you to his house, would it be appropriate to take your own food?" I exclaimed, "No!" "Similarly, My Lord has invited His servant to His house, it is only the weakness of your Yaqeen that makes us carry provisions. Despite this, do you think Allah will let me go to waste?" "Never" I replied. He then left. Sometime later I saw him in Makkah. He approached me and inquired, "Oh Shaykh are you still of weak belief?" Source: Stories of the Pious by Shaikh Ahmad Ali. |

Wow! What strong imaan...subhanAllah. Jazakallah khair for sharing. I'd rather fight for what I believe in, then be loved for being silent on something I totally disagree with... And if I offend you in the process, I'm sorry. Really.  |

I have his cassettes on 'Dajjal', 'Gog Magog' (Yajuj and Majuj), 'Paradise', 'Hellfire' 'The Beast' (you know which one) and a few others. He hardly breathes sometimes! He talk for about five minutes non-stop and thats what makes him so good. So much detail and evident knowledge.   |

هَلْ جَزَاء الْإِحْسَانِ إِلَّا الْإِحْسَانُ؟ Is there any reward for good other than good? [ar-Rahman: 60] "However, keep in mind that you must instruct the people with kindness and mercy. Don’t take this answer and shove it in their faces. Be kind, gentle and patient." - Imam Suhaib Webb, advising after giving an answer.  O Allah, Lord of Jibril, Mika'il and Israfil, Creator of the heavens and the earth, Knower of the unseen and the seen, You will judge between Your servants concerning that wherein they differ. Guide me with regard to that wherein there is dispute concerning the truth by Your leave, for You guide whomsoever You will to the straight path. Oh Allah, I seek refuge in You lest I misguide others, or I am misguided by others, lest I cause others to err or I am caused to err, lest I abuse others or be abused, and lest I behave foolishly or meet with the foolishness of others. | |

Indeed! Theres is so much knowledge to be obtained from even a single verse of the Qur'an. But unfortunately most people just skim through it saying "Yeah, yeah, very interesting". It's such a shame when they can obtain so much more. |
