  • Mustafa Ateshas quoted4 years ago
    the most important duʿā’ to always keep in mind is that for guidance: Guide us to understand Your message properly; guide us to practise the Sunnah of Your Prophet (peace be upon him) properly; guide us to see our faults and our shortcomings. Guide us so that we do not unknowingly take a path that leads us away from You
  • Mustafa Ateshas quoted4 years ago
    May Allah (glorified and exalted is He) give us good character and may He allow that character to not just be true to His creation but allow it to be a reflection of our sincerity towards our Creator. May He help us not to hurt anyone knowingly or unknowingly so that they testify against us on the Day of Judgement and hurt us or cause us doom, and forgive us for the harm that we do, either knowingly or unknowingly. Help us control our tongue and other parts in transgressing others’ lives, property and honour, knowingly or unknowingly, and may Allah (glorified and exalted is He) enter us into Jannah by His mercy and our good character. Āmīn.
  • Mustafa Ateshas quoted4 years ago
    He replied, ‘O Umm al-Dardā’! Verily a Muslim beautifies his character, and as a result of that he treats people so well that they make duʿā’ for him (they supplicate for him) until he enters Jannah because of their prayers. And a Muslim who corrupts his character until he hurts someone due to that bad character, then someone supplicates against him and he enters Hellfire as a result of that.’ Therefore, the only thing that Abū al-Dardā’ (may Allah be pleased with him) wished for was good character, because if that character is genuine and sincere, not only does it mean that he had a genuine connection with Allah (glorified and exalted is He) but because of the goodness in himself, everyone that he came into contact with will testify in his favour on the Day of Judgement

    Your khalq is your physical appearance, and your khuluq represents your character, which is your internal appearance.
  • Mustafa Ateshas quoted4 years ago
    If Allah (glorified and exalted is He) were to give you your book of deeds now, would He give it to your right hand or your left hand? And if He were to give it to your left hand, what would you need to do to wipe away those deeds?
  • Mustafa Ateshas quoted4 years ago
    In terms of your scrolls, Allah says that on the Day of Judgement everyone will receive their book of deeds either in their right hand or their left hand, and may Allah (glorified and exalted is He) make us among those who receive their scrolls in their right hands
  • Mustafa Ateshas quoted4 years ago
    Recognize, that when you call upon Him and supplicate He knows your feelings and what you’re going to ask of Him already. You’re only trying to articulate in the most loving and perfect way, but the point of the duʿā’ is not just to make a request but to recognize what takes place in the process of that request, which is connection to Allah (glorified and exalted is He) and the realization that comes with that process as well
  • Mustafa Ateshas quoted4 years ago
    “O Allah, You are who You are, and I am who I am; You are the One who keeps forgiving, and I am the one who keeps sinning, so forgive me
  • Mustafa Ateshas quoted4 years ago
    Often, as you are reading the Qur’an or going through their duʿā’s, you forget that the One who helped those prophets and heard them in their darkest times is the same Lord that you call upon. The Lord of Zakariya, of Ibrahim, of Maryam, of ʿIsa, and of Muhammad (may Allah bless them and give them peace) is your Lord as well. So when you read about the miracles that Allah (glorified and exalted is He) worked in their lives, recognize that He could work those same miracles in your life, and when you go through the daily difficulties, trials and struggles which you may go through as you’re trying to increase yourself, recognize that you have the Lord of Ibrahim (peace be upon him) on your side.
  • Mustafa Ateshas quoted4 years ago
    recognize that Allah (glorified and exalted is He) is the One who grants knowledge, understanding, wisdom and relief
