إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّوْنَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ آَمَنُوْا صَلُّوْا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوْا تَسْلِيمًا

After listening to so many biographies of the Sahaba RA (guiding stars), we should pose a question to ourselves … What is our condition? What lessons have we learnt from their lives? What positive changes have we made in our lives?
‘”There is no doubt that after Ambiya AS, this world has never seen, nor would ever see a group like the Sahaba RA’ … Before accepting Islam the Sahaba RA were non-entities, but after accepting Islam they became prominent personalities. Allah gave them such honour, dignity and respect!” …(Moulana Naeem Motala Saheb DB)
We should make a firm intention and some effort, to imitate and ingrain the teachings, advices, Akhlaaq and character of Sahaba RA (guiding stars) in our life. Then Allah rewards us, opens the way, protects us from evil, saves us from sin and lights up our heart!
Moulana, discusses an incident in the life of Hazrat Abdullah RA (‘Zulbijaadain’ – possessor of two sheets), which inspires and makes us desirous to have the fate of this poverty-stricken Sahabi. After accepting Islam and being disowned by his disbelieving uncle, he was discovered by Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam at His doorstep wrapped in two sheets. Yearning for death as a Shaheed (Martyr), this close companion was struck with severe fever and was blessed to be buried at the ‘Hands of Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam’

During this auspicious Night of Bara’ah, multitudes of people are forgiven. Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala emancipates thousands of souls this night from the fire of Jahannum (bara’ah means emancipation) … Allah focuses His special attention towards those seeking his forgiveness during this night. So many are forgiven that are equivalent to the number of strands of hair on the goats of the Banu Kalb tribe (a very large tribe with a huge number of livestock). However, there are some who are not forgiven and are deprived of the blessings of this great night … Unless they make amends and totally refrain from their particular evil traits :
• Those who harbour enmity
• Those who worship idols (idolater)
• Those who break family ties
• Those who disobey parents
• Those who are perpetual alcoholics
• Those who commit adultery
• Those who commit murders
Moulana, narrated a very intriguing story of Maalik bin Dinar R.A and his transformation from a drunkard to becoming a Wali of Allah …
A man who made sincere Taubah (repentance) giving us (sinners) ‘true hope’ in the Mercy of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala despite our weakness.

…“Concentrate on the Greatness of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala … Say La’illaha’illallah … Negate and remove all the filth we have in our hearts … Anger, pride, jealousy, enmity and say Ill’allah! … Fill in our hearts only Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala … Feel that all the filth is just being thrown out and is being washed away completely! … And now, the Noor of Allah is coming into our hearts and making our hearts bright!” (Moulana Naeem Motala Saheb DB)

Extract taken from Weekly Tafseer Discourses : Our Respected Shaykh, Moulana Naeem Motala Saheb DB explains :
Throughout the Noble Qur’aan, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala talks about ; the horrors of the Day of Qiyamah, the beautiful Jannah (Paradise) that He has prepared for the pious (believers) and the Hell-Fire (Jahannum) that He has prepared for those who reject Him (Disbelievers) … In Surah Ad~Dahr, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala addresses the mortals on aspects related to the events of Resurrection. The disbelievers could not understand that if a person dies and his body integrates with the soil then how will this person be raised once again on the Day of Resurrection? Allah proves to them His ability to raise them in their original form by drawing their attention to man’s inception … Man’s origin from a drop of sperm.
None of us are free of sins … We are human beings (Insaan) … But, Allah has these “exit passages” for us to come out of this wretched and miserable life of vice, evil, sin and disobedience.
The fire of sin that burns in a persons heart makes him restless …
When the heart becomes infested and corroded, then a person (with even a spark of Imaan) feels some pain and regret! The enjoyment when committing sins does not stay for long … One’s heart becomes restless. The flames of sins cause it to become uneasy. It is blazing and hence searches frantically to become cooled and extinguished. It searches for peace and serenity. The sinner has lost his true direction and goal. He now wishes to seek his true Beloved … his Creator and Benefactor … his Beloved Allah!
Allah (Al Wadud) loves us! … But, Allah has put us into this world to test us … An examination that we all have to go through … We will undoubtedly go through trials and tribulations … Allah looks for numerous opportunities and reasons to forgive us and to draw us closer and closer to Him … Never lose hope in the Mercy of Allah …
‘Allah enters into His Mercy whomsoever He wishes’ ~ Surah Ad~Dahr 76:31

We are Mu’mineen (Believers)…Have we recognized our Rabb (Allah)?…How do we reach Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala? How do we connect ourselves to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala? Let us reflect and ponder…
Allah Ta’ala says : Whoever submits his whole self to Allah, and is a doer of good, has grasped indeed the most trustworthy hand-hold ~ Surah Luqmān 31:22
We should submit, surrender and carry out whatever Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala has commanded from us and show real Nadaamat (Regret/Remorse)…ie: feel ashamed of having committed sins…
Our hearts have become barren and desolate…They have become empty and void of the Love of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala! The moment we turn to Allah in repentance, shed those tears of Taubah and endure the pain on our hearts (of restraining our Nafs from gaining any enjoyment of sins) …This causes our hearts to bleed and the condition of this spiritual heart begins to change gradually…This is what Allah loves!
Now, as the lover takes the name of his Beloved Allah…‘This once upon a time “desolate heart” begins to bloom and blossom with the fragrant flowers of the Love of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala”…We have to fill our hearts with flowers of Taqwa…Flowers of Imaan…Flowers of Itaa’at (Obedience) of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala…When our hearts will be conquered…Then we will enjoy the ‘Noor’ of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala…(Moulana Naeem Motala Saheb DB)
“The receipt for the acceptance of a persons Du’aa are the tears that flow down his cheeks…..”
