Prayers for salamati-e-eeman-o-jaan-o-mulk-o-millat for all. My previous post "ZINDAGI KA SAFAR" invoked a beautiful comment from one of the most respected elders of mine regarding "SELF ASSURANCE". As I was prioritizing the factors which guarantee self assurance, Faith in Allah Karim headlined the list because He alone Gives life and everything which we have and the universe has. He is the most Compassionate and the most Merciful and He does not like that we suffer "WHY WOULD ALLAH CAUSE YOU TO SUFFER IF YOU ARE GRATEFUL AND ATTAIN TO BELIEF - SEEING THAT ALLAH KARIM IS ALWAYS RESPONSIVE TO GRATITUDE, ALL KNOWING" 4:147.
As I was meditating on the issue of Self Assurance, a sad news engulfed me. Some one lost the most precious item of the universe "Zindagi". A human life, on whose creation Allah Karim heard dissenting voices from the most obedient of His servants on the one hand and a perpetual rebellion from the one who was MUALAM-UL-MALAKOOT" so to say on the other hand.
This new creation was instantly exalted and appointed Khalifa on Earth. After man's departure from Paradise to earth he was told - you will have to struggle because your PENSION hereafter would depend upon the hard work, dedication and sincerity of purpose displayed FILARDH. He was also advised that during trial, tribulations and depression - seek refuge with Allah Karim "O YOU who have attained Faith! Seek aid in steadfast patience and prayer; for, behold, Allah is with those who are patient in adversity" 1-153.
Depression, a mania afflicting the world is the direct result of being UNGRATEFUL, "Verily , towards his Sustainer man is most ungrateful and to this, behold, he bears witness indeed" 100-6. Nothing in this world is that depressing which extinguishes the light of Zindagi, a Rahma and trust from Allah Karim.
Allah Karim make us from those, who are grateful, who take refuge with You with Patience and Prayers and BESTOW ON US CONTENTMENT AND MAY WE BE SELF ASSURED THAT YOU ALONE ARE THE CHERISH-ER AND SUSTAIN-ER OF ALL THE WORLDS AND YOU ALONE WE WORSHIP AND TO YOU ALONE WE TURN FOR AID AND SOLACE AND CURES FOR OUR AFFLICTIONS. Aameen.
