Man is a slave of one that bestows him with a favor
Submitted by Mohammed Gilani on
If a person was hospitalised for 6 months, he lost his job, hasn't paid his
rental for 6 months, hasn't got money to put bread and butter on the
dastarkhan for his family of 8 – 10 people and then somebody comes and
puts R100 000.00 in his hands and tells him, “Go and sort yourself out and
don't even mention to anyone that I have given this to you.”
He will sing
the praises of that person his whole life, he will tell his children what a
good man that is and how he came to our aid at such difficult times! Never
ever forget him, always make dua for him and his family and be always
good to them!
If millions of such people are helped in the world in this way
and even more - the favours of Nabi are even much greater on each one
of us, Muslims and non Muslims alike, even animals, and the entire
universe. Had it not been for him, we should not have been in existence!
If you are travelling by car and you have a breakdown in some remote
dangerous place, where there are wild animals, highway robbers, it is
winter, extremely cold and raining. You have your wife and little children
with you as well, who are all hungry, feeling cold and crying. You are also
frightened, nervous and panicking.
Suddenly somebody comes to your aid
and takes you to his place, he gives you and the family hot soup, puts you
up for the night in a comfortable manner, has your car repaired, gives you
a hot, hearty breakfast and gives you a gift also, on top of all that! How
much won't you appreciate it your whole life, how wouldn't you want to
repay him for all that he did for you and your family?!
The favours of
Rasulullaah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) are much more than all that! How much do we appreciate
it?!
Did we ever say Jazakallah in the form of reading Durud Sharief, even
once a day?!
Do we try to emulate our Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) by following his Sunnats in
any way? Or do we rather follow his enemies and shaytaan, who want to
lead us to hell fire?!
Had we possessed the slightest of brains we should
have become die hards of our illustrious Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam)!
May Allah Ta'ala open the
eyes of our hearts! Ameen.
