خود پرستی کی منطق ہی کیا ہے آخر؟ جب ہر چیز عارضی ہے آپ کا حسن آپ کی وجاہت ،آپ کی آواز اِن سب میں ایسا کیا ہے جو ہمیشہ رہنے والا ہے، برائے کرم نہ ہی اتنے خود پرست ہوجائیں کے غرور میں مبتلا ہوجائیں اور نہ ہی اتنے بدظن ہوجائیں خود سے کے خود میں خامیاں تلاش کرنے لگ جائیں ، ہمارے خدو خال اللّٰہ کے بنائے ہوئے ہیں اور ہم پر صرف اسی کی حکمرانی چل سکتی ہے، یقیناً

How fortunate are those people whom Allah has granted the understanding to comprehend His Quran. In this age of distractions and entertainment, they ponder over the verses of the Quran and derive pleasure from it. Each person connects with Allah in a unique way. Indeed, all of this happens only by Allah's grace; without His guidance, neither worship, understanding of the Quran, nor anything else is possible.
Oh Allah! includes me among these folks, Ameen!

"اگر تمام انسان تل جائیں تمہیں نقصان پہنچانے پر تو
نہیں پہنچا سکتے مگر وہ جو اللّٰہ نے لکھ دیا ہو اگر سب انسان جمع ہوجائیں تمہیں نفع دینے کے لئے تو نہیں دے سکتے مگر اُتنا جو اللّٰہ نے لکھ دیا ہو"

One day you will ask me which is more important? My life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life

I seek refuge to Allah from the sorrows that rip me apart in silence

Allah Mian! I wonder why I get distressed over things that are beyond my control, I know that you see everything and You alone have power over the entire universe, yet I burden myself unnecessarily. It's not that I lack faith in You, I just don't understand what's happening to me.

We all tend to underestimate ourselves in one way or another, whether it's our appearance, skin color, communication skills, lack of confidence, or financial stability. We often overthink and become ungrateful. The reality is that nothing lasts forever, and inevitably, the things we rely on or excel in may diminish over time. So why do you think the shortcomings you perceive in yourself will always remain? In this world, nothing lasts forever except for your deeds.

There are multiple quotes that define peace vs. violence in a very eloquent way:
Malcolm X once said: “Sometimes you have to pick the gun up to put the Gun down.”
John F Kennedy: “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."
George Orwell: " People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
Nelson Mandella: "Where choice is set between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence ... I prefer to use arms in defense of honor rather than remain the vile witness of dishonor."
The Quran has a very concise statement about retribution, what ayah mentions this Quranic Maxim?

Mein boht koshish kerta hun Allah mian k nazdeek hone ki. Boht zyada. Aur may be iss qabil ho bhi jata hun .Har cheez ka khayal rakhne lagta hun k yeh baat Allah ko passand nahi mein nai karunga yeh. Like mein koshish kerta hun avoid karun un cheezon ko jo Allah ko passand nahin. Phir achanak se aisa kuch waqiya hota hei k mein door hojata hun Allah se. Aise lagta hei boht baar mein ne Allah ko paaty paaty khodiya. Lekin aik achi baat bataun. Mein chahy jesa bhi hun par woh Hamesha meri Help kerte hein mujhe pata bhi nahi lagta k cheezein kese sort out horahi hein. Mein Gawahi deta hun Haqeeqi Muhabbat sirf Allah ki muhabbat hei. Aisi mukhlis muhabbat ap kisi insaan se expect hi nai ker sakte.

ایک رغبت ہے تیرے نام سے جو گھٹتی نہیں۔۔

I am also someone that Allah honored like Allah honored the sons & daughters of Adam (as) by putting the ruh in them;
وَلَقَدْ كَرَّمْنَا بَنِي عَادَم ... (سورة الإسراء)
And certainly we have honored the children of Adam (as)
If Allah has honored me, why do I have the right to dishonor myself? Just like I don't have the right to dishonor somebody else because they are Allah's creations, I actually don't have the right to dishonor myself or to put myself down and hate myself & all that kind of stuff because I am also Allah's creation.

FORGIVING & LOVING YOURSELF
In the world of psychology, there is a big concept called forgiving yourself which Muslims don't really have. We have, forgive others, forgive someone who did wrong to you. Seek Allah's forgiveness, acknowledge your sin, make things right but we don't really have the narrative of forgiving yourself.
Allah created Adam (as). The body doesn't belong to Adam (as), it belongs to Allah. Allah put a ruh inside Adam (as) & that ruh also doesn't belong to Adam (as), it belongs to Allah. The concept in our deen is to be merciful and to be good to all of Allah's creations because everything belongs to Allah.

So there is some level of guilt when we do something wrong & that's healthy but self-hatred & oh! You are a horrible person. You will never change. How could you have done this? This is all you are. This kind of self-negative talk is actually against the teachings of our book too at the very fundamental level because Allah created us & we have to be caretakers of everything he created;
... هُوَ أَنشَأَكُم مِّنَ الْأَرْضِ وَاسْتَعْمَرَكُمْ فِيهَا ... (سورة هود)
He is the one who puts you on the earth & He wanted you to develop & build on it.
So Allah doesn't want us to destroy anything in this world and He doesn't want us to destroy ourselves. It is so, so beautiful; Allah forbade us from harming or insulting any of His creation so why ar

Rasulullah (saw) mentioned in a hadith that those souls who knew each other in the realm of souls [alim e arwah] would find and know each other in this world too, and those who developed animosity in that realm would dislike each other here as well. And that's why, when you meet certain people, you're suddenly overcome with a feeling that you know them from somewhere or that you've met them before. And maybe this also accounts for those moments when your heart misses someone you've never met, because your soul is yearning for those other souls and waiting for them to show up in your life here in this world.
isn't that beautiful, subhan Allah?

Allah make us understand that He's the only companion to us by keeping us away from those people on which we depends alot, we couldn't imagine living without them. That's one of the best thing that I admires alot about our Creator ❤️

Emotional Intelligence is something like trying to refrain emotions from getting over to your brain. Reflecting upon what's the cause of your anxiety and how can you overcome it.
-Our Prophet Peace Be Upon Him was the most Emotionally Intelligent Person-❤️

It teaches us that the affection and care of parents has no boundaries. Love can Cure.
Broken hearts can be fixed & reuniting with those we care about is close.
It teaches us that the truthful never abandon that which they believe in.
Allah is with those who have no one.
And Allah gives everything to those who give up everything for Allah.

In Surah Yusuf - Allāh described the story of Prophet Yusuf عليه السّلام as the most beautiful of stories.
Why???
Because regardless of what situation you are going through in life - you can relate to something in it.
It teaches us that dreams do come true.
Hardship will trun in to ease.
And nothing is better in this world than loyalty.
It teaches us that those with gifts will be hated upon and plotted against - so patience is key.
It teaches us that it's never too late to say sorry and forgiveness takes the greatest courage.
It teaches us Du'as may be delayed but they are never rejected.
It teaches us that the best of people have the most difficult beginnings but they always have the most beautiful endings.
