--The Art of grooming your Soul--

[username]

Asssalam-o-alaikum!! (U may say Wa-alaikum-os-salam in your hearts)
I have got this most extraordinary Idea!==> Share a Hadith, a Quranic Quotation or even a good--very good Piece of Advice here!
JUST IMAGINE
How many of us may read it ===> may even implement on it, and in return you shall get the reward and others benefit!
Awesome, no?
I mean, just posting a single quranic verse or a hadith ( or even an inspirational story, an ADVICE..anything), is it sucha BIG DEAL? Don't hesitate then! JUST POST IT!
You know our religion is very easy but we have made it difficult for us!!

Groom Your Souls is what the topic says!

Look, man is made up of body and soul. The body is a cage, and the soul is inexhaustible fountainhead of life that temporarily resides in it. It never dries up even after the death of the person in whose body it dwelt for a certain period of time. Life goes on. It never ceases.
The soul is so invigorating a force that within few hours of its liberation from the body (cage), the body decomposes and stinks. Thus, the soul nurtures the body till it remains in it. Body signifies impermanence, and soul the permanence. Most people all their life take good care of their body but ignore the soul. They keep their body well-treated, and the soul maltreated. After liberation from such a body, the soul, not even for a while, hovers over the departed person (body), and joins the mainstream of life.

Very few people take a good care of their souls. They honour the soul’s permanent link with eternity. They do not corrupt the cage (body) and do not pollute it with filth. When liberated from such a cage, the soul, in its state of consciousness, hovers over the deceased for a certain period of time.

I hope you get FULL ADVANTAGE of this thread and GROOM your souls well!
Thank You (JazakAllah)
May Allah bless you all!!

Wa Assalam Alayka wa rahmatu allah wa barakatu =D

Great Idea even if it's Stolen =]


Here I'll go first =]

?"When you go closer to Islam, it’s natural for you to become alone. People won’t be there as much as they were, and you’ll have a hard time connecting with anyone on any sort of level. But, Allah does this to give you strength, to enrich you with independence from imperfection and to rely only on Him."

Muhammad Khairy Farhan <3

glad u think its a good idea

Narrated Uthman ibn Affan (RAA) Rasulullah (SAW) at the time of our returning from our prayer told us (certain things pertaining to purification).
He said: I do not know whether I should tell you a thing or keep quiet. We said: Rasulullah, tell us if it is good and if it is otherwise, Allah and Messenger (SAW) know better. Upon this he said: A Muslim who purifies (himself) and completes purification as enjoined upon him by Allah and then offers the prayers, that will be expiatious (of his sins he committed) between these (prayers). (Sahih Muslim Book 2, Hadith # 0444)

JazakAllah khair for making this thread. InshaAllah, it'll be really helpful for some people reading verses of the Holy Quran or hadiths here!

God bless you. (:

Barakallah

it means a lot....

Ibn 'Umar said, "There is nothing that is swallowed greater with Allah in reward than a slave of Allah who swallows and contains his rancour out of desire for the pleasure of Allah. (imam Bukhari)

[Romeesa-Chan]

Never get tired of asking Allah for whatever you need. Because humans get tired, they get bored, they get restless from listening to you; but not Allah. He is beyond that. Allah is beyond it. Shaytan wants you to feel embarrassed to ask for the same thing again and again, but who else will help you? It’s only Allah, so keep asking. Never tire of asking from Allah; because He will never tire of giving you.

[Romeesa-Chan]

Life asked death,"why do people love me but hate you?" Then death replied: "Because you are a beautiful lie and I'm a painful truth"

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 3.724      Narrated by Abu Huraira
Allah's Apostle said, "A pious slave gets a double reward." Abu Huraira added: By Him in
Whose Hands my soul is but for Jihad (i.e. holy battles), Hajj, and my duty to serve my
mother, I would have loved to die as a slave.

“And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient, Who, when disaster strikes them, say, “Indeed we belong to Allah , and indeed to Him we will return.” [2:155-156]

Nice thread.

Thank you

Your Lord has commanded that you worship none but Him, and that you be kind to your parents. If one of them or both of them reach old age with you, do not say to them a word of disrespect, or scold them, but say a generous word to them. And act humbly to them in mercy, and say, “My Lord, have mercy on them, since they cared for me when I was small.” (Quran, 17:23-24, see also 31:14, 46:15, and 29:

[Romeesa-Chan]

And be afraid of the Day when you shall be brought back to Allah. Then every person shall be paid what he earned, and they shall not be dealt with unjustly.

[2:281]


“Have We not spread the earth like a bed, and fixed the mountains like pegs, and created you in pairs (as men and women), and made your sleep a means of repose, and made the night a covering, and made the day to seek livelihood, and built above you seven strong firmaments, and placed therein a hot, shining lamp, and sent down abundant water from the clouds so that We may thereby bring forth grain and vegetation, and gardens dense with foliage?”

[78:6-17]

?"Say, it is he who has produced you and made for you hearing and vision and hearts; little are you grateful" [Surah Al-Mulk (67:23)]

           ........................

A man is one who fears the death of his heart, not his body. [Ibn Al-Qayyim]

                   ...................

From the Wise Sayings of Luqman

“If you’re in prayer, take care of your heart;
If you’re eating, take care of your throat;
If you’re in another man’s house, take care of your eyes;
If you are among people, take care of your tongue.
Remember two matters and forget two matters:
Remember Allah (subhanahu wa ta`alaa) and death;
Forget any good that you have done to another and any evil that was done to you by another.”
