Allah, indeed nothing is hidden from in the earth and in the heaven.
[3:5]
_
We have deluded ourselves concerning Allah ﷻ!
_
One of the Salaf said “If we truly knew Allah, we would never disobey Him ﷻ”
_
We have become heedless and unaware of who Allah ﷻ is,
And thus we share the characteristic he describes the disbelievers with,
وَ مَا قَدَرُوا اللهَ حَقَّ قَدرِه
And they have not appraised Allah with due appraisal.
[39:67]
_
Thus Allah ﷻ poses the question
مَّا لَكُمْ لاَ تَرْجُونَ لِلَّهِ وَقَاراً
What is the matter with you that you are not in awe of the Waqar [Majesty of Allah]
[71:13]
Ibn Abbas رضي الله عنه said “That you all do not magnify Allah in the proper manner that He deserves to be magnified. Meaning, you do not fear His punishment and His vengeance.”
_
Isn’t it time, we started recognising Allah ﷻ and worshipping Allah ﷻ and obeying Allah ﷻ?! For He ﷻ is everlasting and we are perishing by the day!
_
Ya Ibn Adam! Don’t wait till your old in age and when you are unable yet wanting! Make use of the energy now, before it leaves you!
