🌙 Ramadan Reminders: Day 2⃣7⃣🌙
“ Allah will always Compensate “
When Allāh ﷻ takes something away from you, He ﷻ compensates you with something 🌹better, but only if you are patient 🌾and seek your reward 🙏🏻from Him.
The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said,
إِذَا ابْتَلَيْ عَبدِي بحبيبتَيْهِ فَصبَرَ عَوَّضْتُهُ مِنْهُمَا الْجنَّةَ*
“Whoever has his eyesight 👓taken away from him and is patient, he will be compensated with Paradise.”
In another Hadīth, the Prophet ﷺ said, “If a child of a servant dies, 👧🏻 Allah (swt) says to the Angels, “Did you take the soul of my servant’s child?”. ⚰The Angels, say “Yes”. And He (Exalted), says ” You have taken the fruit of his heart? “. 💝And they say “Yes”. And what did my servant say? They say, “He praised you and 🙏🏻returned to You. Allah ﷻ then in turn says, “Then build for my servant a house 🏯 in Paradise and name it the House of Praise.”
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : ” إِذَا مَاتَ وَلَدُ الْعَبْدِ قَالَ اللَّهُ لِمَلائِكَتِهِ قَبَضْتُمْ وَلَدَ عَبْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ نَعَمْ فَيَقُولُ قَبَضْتُمْ ثَمَرَةَ فُؤَادِهِ فَيَقُولُونَ نَعَمْ فَيَقُولُ مَاذَا قَالَ عَبْدِي فَيَقُولُونَ حَمِدَكَ وَاسْتَرْجَعَ فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ : ” ابْنُوا لِعَبْدِي بَيْتًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَسَمُّوهُ بَيْتَ الْحَمْدِ ”
So don’t feel excessive 😔sorrow over some misfortune 👎🏾 because it is a temporary life
The one who is afflicted in this world 🌍and is close to Allāh ﷻ will be praised in the highest ✨part of Jannah:
سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُم بِمَا صَبَرْتُمْ ۚ فَنِعْمَ عُقْبَى الدَّارِ
“Peace be upon you for what you patiently endured. And excellent is the final ⛲home. [13:24]
Truly, the life 🌇of this world is short and its treasures 🎁are few. The Hereafter 🌌is better and everlasting; those who are afflicted here shall find reward there and those who work hard here shall find ease🌿 there.
The Messenger ﷺ said:
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : ” عَجَبًا لأَمْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِ إِنَّ أَمْرَهُ كُلَّهُ خَيْرٌ وَلَيْسَ ذَاكَ لأَحَدٍ إِلا لِلْمُؤْمِنِ إِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ سَرَّاءُ شَكَرَ فَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُ وَإِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ ضَرَّاءُ صَبَرَ فَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُ
“How wonderful is the case of a believer; there is good 🔖for him in everything and this applies only to a believer. If something good 🍃happens to him him, he expresses 🙏🏻gratitude and that is good for him; and if adversity 🍂befalls him, he endures it patiently and that is better for him.
* إِنَّمَا يُوَفَّى الصَّابِرُونَ أَجْرَهُمْ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ *
“ …Indeed, the patient will be given 🌻their reward without ⚖account.” [39:10]
