PEACE OF HEART
Abu Huraira (R.A) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) said, “Whoever removes a worldly calamity from a believer, Allah will remove from him one of the calamities of The Day of Resurrection. Whoever provides ease to a person in difficulty, Allah will provide ease to him in this world and in the Hereafter. Whoever conceals the faults of a Muslim, Allah will conceal his faults in this world and in the Hereafter. Allah continues helping His bondsmen as long as His bondsmen remain in the help of his fellow brother. Whoever threads a path in order to seek knowledge, Allah eases the path to Paradise for him. No people gather in one of the houses of Allah (The Masaajid) in order to recite and study the Book of Allah (The Noble Qur’aan), without tranquillity descending upon them, mercy engulfing them, the angels surrounding them and Allah speaking of them to those close angels of Allah. The person whose deeds have kept him behind, his lineage will not be able to take him forward.”(MUSLIM)
In a portion of a narration of Bukhari, Ibn Umar (R.A) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) said, “A Muslim is a brother of another Muslim. He neither wrongs him nor yields him over to the enemy. (Wrongfully)”
In Surah Hujuraat (10), Allah (S.W.T) says,” The believers are real brothers to each other. So make peace between your brothers.” Allah created humans with intellect and hearts. Humans have the ability to understand and feel emotions. Humanity demands that one be of assistance to another. What we love for ourselves, we should love for our fellow brother – sign of a true Believer.
We are the seventieth and last nation to come onto the surface of this earth, but we will be the first nation to enter the Blissful Gardens of Paradise. On the Day of Judgment, one hundred and twenty rows of people will enter Paradise, of which eighty rows will be The Ummah of Nabi (S.A.W). (TIRMIZI)
Anas Bin Maalik (R.A) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) said to him, “O my son! If you are able to wake up in the morning and go to sleep at night, while there is no evil feeling in your heart for anyone, then do so.” Thereafter, the Messenger of Allah saw said, “O my son! That is from my Sunnah. Whoever revives my Sunnah, indeed, he loves me. And whoever loves me, he shall be with me in Paradise.” (TIRMIZI)
If our hearts are pure then we will lead pure and colourful lives. In Surah Hajj (77), Allah (S.W.T) says, “Continue doing good so that you may be successful.”
