Excerpt 37

You know, it’s really painful to know what is right; the right ways and the truth, but you don’t implement, apply, act nor achieve anything, as if your “Nafs” obstinate you. The solution is simple, go to an isolated place, where no one can hear you, and scream out the sleeping bacteria in your brain, shake your senses and numb feelings, to revive and wake up from the “temporary inattention”, which kills the person if he disregarded it for a period of time, do you know what am I talking about? I’m talking about mental lethargy; when you accept to hearing negative words from others and yourself, and accept indecent behaviors, actions and bad habits, whether with your God, self or others.


There are times when man gives up on his tasks and goals, his ambitions and dreams, on the things he believes in and wishes to achieve to satisfy himself. This cycle has many reasons; turning away from Allah, parental dissatisfaction, deceiving oneself and surrounding environment, psychological discomfort, friends who Depress your energy and creativity, and you might be the first depressor of your own, or your brother, sister or any close person to you. That’s why we have to be careful and watch out for these small things which leave huge effect on our lives.

Dear Safa,

Al-Huda only comes from Allah, no one can change anyone, not even the prophet _ peace be upon him _ could.

قال تعالى : {لَّيْسَ عَلَيْكَ هُدَاهُمْ وَلَكِنَّ اللّهَ يَهْدِي مَن يَشَاء وَمَا تُنفِقُواْ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَلأنفُسِكُمْ وَمَا تُنفِقُونَ إِلاَّ ابْتِغَاء وَجْهِ اللّهِ وَمَا تُنفِقُواْ مِنْ خَيْرٍ يُوَفَّ إِلَيْكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ لاَ تُظْلَمُونَ } (272) سورة البقرة.

It is not required of thee (O Messenger) to set them on the right path but Allah guides to the right path whom He pleaseth. Whatever of good ye give benefits your own souls and ye shall only do so seeking the "Face" of Allah. Whatever good ye give, shall be rendered back to you and ye shall not be dealt with unjustly. (2:272)

وقال : {إِنَّكَ لَا تَهْدِي مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ يَهْدِي مَن يَشَاء وَهُوَ أَعْلَمُ بِالْمُهْتَدِينَ} (56) سورة القصص

It is true thou wilt not be able to guide everyone whom thou lovest: but Allah guides those whom He will and He knows best those who receive guidance. (28:56)


But we have to change ourselves, Allah says:

(إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُغَيِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتَّى يُغَيِّرُوا مَا بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ) (11) سورة الرعد

Lo! Allah changeth not the condition of a folk until they (first) change that which is in their hearts(13:11)
