or

FAITH IN ALLAH 



♥**♥ ○•---------------------------------------------------•○ ♥**♥



DUAA or SUPPLICATION TO ALLAH:



O ALLAH, PLACE LIGHT IN MY HEART,

LIGHT IN MY TONGUE,

LIGHT IN MY HEARING,

LIGHT IN MY SIGHT,

LIGHT BEHIND ME,

LIGHT IN FRONT OF ME,

LIGHT ON MY RIGHT,

LIGHT ON MY LEFT,

PLACE LIGHT ON MY CHEST, IN MY FLESH, IN MY BLOOD,

IN MY HAIR AND IN MY SKIN,

PLACE LIGHT IN MY SOUL AND

MAKE LIGHT ABUNDANT FOR ME,

GRANT ME LIGHT AND MAKE ME LIGHT.

was transmitted by Imam Muslim and others.







ALLAH IS SUFFICIENT FOR ME.  I HAVE PLACED 

MY TRUST IN HIM,  HE IS THE LORD OF THE 


MAJESTIC THRONE.  


The Holy Quran; Tawbah, 129.








The word “nur” / “noor” means:  

Ray of light



Brightness

Gleam

Glow

Illumination

(Hans Wehr dictionary of modern English)




In Quran the word nur / noor is used as a symbol for guidance. 



Darkness is used 



for ignorance and is the opposite for guidance. Prophets were sent 



with 



scriptures to lead their people from darkness to the Light. In the 



parable 



 Quran has beautifully presented the concept of guidance.








The word “nur” or  “noor” is used in the following contexts in Quran:



What is Light?



ALLAH / The One and Only Creator of  Mankind and all / God has 

created Light and darkness

Light is a symbol for guidance from Allah.

Light is only from Allah.

Guidance is the sense of right or wrong.

Guidance is wisdom.

Guidance is belief in and applying a set of principles to lead one’s life.

Source of Light (Guidance) is the scriptures:



Quran is a manifest sign from Allah to lead people from darkness to 

Light.





Quran is the Light and a convincing proof from Allah to humankind - 

174 , 42:52]



Quran is the source of guidance and a plain book [5:15, 64:8]

In Torah is guidance and Light [5:44, 6:91,14:5]



Gospel confirms Torah and in it is guidance and Light [5:46]


Quran leads mankind from darkness to Light [14:1]









Light of Guidance is only for those who submit, believe and do good 

deeds:





Allah leads believers from darkness to Light. [2:257]






Those who submit to Allah, their hearts are opened to Light [39:22]


Those who believe and do good deeds will be led from darkness to 



Light [65:11]






Those who seek good pleasure of God and way of peace, Allah leads




them from darkness to Light [5:16]










Those who are in darkness are not equal to those who are in Light 

[6:122, 35:20]



The Light of believers runs forward before them on judgment day 


[57:12, 57:19, 57:28]







Allah promises to complete his Light [61:8]


It is important to note that, some interpretations of Quran seek 

esoteric meanings for the concept of nur / noor which is not the 

purpose of this article. Esoteric means hidden or deeper knowledge or 

teachings that are possessed or understood only by a few.






TRUST IN ALLAH - Tawakkul




Relying on Allah the Almighty 

&

Building One’s Firm, Devotional Relationship

 with

 Almighty ALLAH:



“[He is] the Lord of the East and the West; there is no deity except 



Him, so take Him as Disposer of [your] affairs.” (Qur’an 73:9)









Have you ever had that feeling of anxiety in your heart? What if it



 doesn’t work out? What if you never get over it? The truth is, we have



 all felt this way at some point in our lives. Sometimes, the uncertainty 



is just too much to bear, or the hardship of a moment prevents us 



from seeing any light at the end of the tunnel. At times we 



desperately want some kind of medicine, a pill perhaps, to 



miraculously take these worries away.









But we do have that. This pill is called tawakkul. Like any pill, it’s 



sometimes hard to swallow. There are moments when we wonder 



whether this medicine even works, or if it is just some tool to make us



 simply believe we can be better. But Allah, the One – the only One –



 in control of this universe has said:







“…And whoever relies upon Allah – then He is sufficient for him.” 



(Qur’an, 65, 3)










So what does it mean to rely on Allah; to have tawakkul in Him?



It means to be firm in your heart. Ibn Ata’illah stated:



“Relieve yourself of worry after you have planned; do not concern 



yourself with what Allah has undertaken on your behalf.”



With tawakkul, our external burden or outward struggle is to plan, to



 use our means, and to work hard, but in our heart there is no longer



 the worry of this burden. If you are sick, you seek out the best 



option: a professional doctor. If you are applying to university, you



 take your time in preparing your application to meet the criteria. But 



also know that after you have done your daily work and faced 



struggles, you should feel a resounding rest in your heart. 


Why?

Allah is Al-Wakeel; this means that it is He who controls His 


worshipers’ affairs and takes care of them. He never abandons them 

nor leaves them to another source. He has given Himself this Name 

and made it known to us, so that we know this is an essential 

attribute of His; thus, we will never be let down insha’Allah. Even if 

things do not go according to plan, we know that Allah will give us 

something that is better. We could not have entrusted our affairs to

 anyone better than Him. This is why, whenever the idea of relying on

 Allah is mentioned in the Qur’an, Allah reminds us of His power:







“[He is] the Lord of the East and the West; there is no deity except 

Him, so take Him as Disposer of [your] affairs.” (Qur’an, 73,9)






And Allah says,


“…Rely upon the Ever-Living who does not die…” (Qur’an, 25, 58)



Allah is telling us in Surat Al-Muzzammil that He is the Lord of the East

 and the West, so will our needs ever go outside of the East and the 

West? He tells us in Surat Al-Fuqan to put our complete trust in Him, 

Who never dies, so how can we put our trust in people who do?


But if the condition of tawakkul is that we use our provisions and 

resources, what if we lack the means?






Imam Ahmad said the happiest day of his life was when he woke up 

one morning only to find no food in his home, because he knew that 

on this day he had to rely completely on Allah. Imam Ahmad was very,

 very poor since he didn’t have the means as we do to just go to the

 market and buy what his heart desired.




Tawakkul also requires training. We are human, and every now and

 then, we will feel this uncertainty, a loneliness, this knot in the 

stomach that maybe our situation won’t work out. And it’s ok to feel

like this because it is about reminding ourselves to trust Allah at that 

precise moment. If we truly rely on Allah, in the way we rely on our 

doctor when we know we have the best one around, this trust can 

only give us the peace of mind and tranquility of heart knowing that

Allah is always doing the best for us. This tranquility is developed 

when we face situations of discomfort and uncertainty. When we truly

 have tawakkul, we will never seek haraam means to escape our 

situation, because we believe it is only Allah who determines the 

result.



Hence, whenever we feel disheartened or uncertain, let’s take abide by our 

restrain and maintain tawakkul. We must do what we can to our best 

and simultaneously retain utmost trust in the guarantee that Allah will

 give you the result you need.

Friends on that day will be foes one to another, save those who kept their 

duty (to Allah).


--The Glorious Quran; 43; The Embellishment, 67.










Believers: Trust in Allah



In Allah let believers put their trust.

The Glorious Quran; 3, 122(part).


Chapter 3 - Surah Al-Imran





Put your trust in Allah, certainly, Allah loves those who put their trust (in Him). (3;159).


If Allah helps you, none can overcome you; and if He forsakes you, who is there after Him that can help you? And in Allah (Alone) let believers put their trust.(3: 160).


And put your trust in Allah. And Allah is Ever All-Sufficient as a Disposer of affairs.(4:81).


So fear Allah. And in Allah let believers put their trust.(5:11).


And put your trust in Allah if you are believers indeed.(5:23).


[Shu'aib (AS) said:] "...In Allah (Alone) we put our trust..."(7:89).


And they (the believers) put their trust in their Lord (Alone)(8:2).


Whoever puts his trust in Allah, then surely, Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise.
(8:49). 


And (put your) trust in Allah. Verily, He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower. (8:61).


Say (O Muhammad SAW): "Nothing shall ever happen to us except what Allah has ordained for us. He is our Maula (Lord, Helper and Protector)." And in Allah let the believers put their trust. (9:51).


But if they turn away, say (O Muhammad SAW): "Allah is sufficient for me. None has the right to be worshipped but He, in Him I put my trust and He is the Lord of the Mighty Throne."(9:129). 


[Nuh (AS) said:] "...I put my trust in Allah..."(10:71).









Chapter 10 - Surah Yunus




 And Musa (Moses) said: "O my people! If you have believed in Allah, then put your trust in Him if you are Muslims (those who submit to Allah's Will)." (10:84).

 They said: "In Allah we put our trust. Our Lord! Make us not a trial for the folk who are Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doing) (i.e. do not make them overpower us). (10:85).

"And save us by Your Mercy from the disbelieving folk."(10:86).


[Hud (AS) said:] "I put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord!..."(11:56).

[Shu’aib (AS) said:] "...And my guidance cannot come except from Allah, in Him I trust and unto Him I repent."(11:88).

So worship Him (O Muhammad SAW) and put your trust in Him. And your Lord is not unaware of what you (people) do.(11:123).

[Ya'qub (AS) said:] "...In Him (Allah), I put my trust and let all those that trust, put their trust in Him."(12:67).

Say: (O Muhammad SAW) "He is my Lord! None has the right to be worshipped but He! In Him is my trust, and to Him will be my return with repentance." (13:30).



Chapter 14 - Surah Ibrahim


[The Messengers [Nuh (AS), Hud (AS), Salih (AS)] said to their people:] "...And in Allah (Alone) let the believers put their trust,(14:11).

And why should we not put our trust in Allah while He indeed has guided us our ways. And we shall certainly bear with patience all the hurt you may cause us, and in Allah (Alone) let those who trust, put their trust." (14:12).

Chapter 16 - Surah An-Nahl

And as for those who emigrated for the Cause of Allah, after suffering oppression, We will certainly give them goodly residence in this world, but indeed the reward of the Hereafter will be greater, if they but knew! (16:41).

(They are) those who remained patient (in this world for Allah's sake), and put their trust in their Lord (Allah Alone). (16:42).

So when you want to recite the Qur'an, seek refuge with Allah from Shaitan (Satan), the outcast (the cursed one). Chapter 16 - Surah An-Nahl 98.

Verily! He (Shaitan) has no power over those who believe and put their trust only in their Lord (Allah). (16:99).

And put your trust (O Muhammad SAW) in the Ever Living One Who dies not, and glorify His Praises, and Sufficient is He as the All-Knower of the sins of His slaves; Chapter 25 - Surah Al-Furqan58. 

Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six Days...(25:59).

And (O Muhammad SAW) put your trust in the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.(26:217).

So put your trust in Allah; surely, you (O Muhammad SAW) are on manifest truth. (27:79).




Chapter 29 - Surah Al-'Ankabut


And those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism) and do righteous good deeds, to them We shall surely give lofty dwellings in Paradise, underneath which rivers flow, to live therein forever. Excellent is the reward of the workers.(29:58).

Those who are patient, and put their trust (only) in their Lord (Allah).(29:59).

And put your trust (O Muhammad SAW) in Allah, and Sufficient is Allah as a Wakil (Trustee, or Disposer of affairs). (33:3).

And put your trust in Allah, and Sufficient is Allah as a Wakil (Trustee, or Disposer of affairs). (33:48).

Say: [O Muhammad (SAW)] ..."Sufficient for me is Allah; in Him those who trust (i.e. believers) must put their trust."(39:38).

[Say: O Muhammad (SAW)] ..."Such is Allah, my Lord in Whom I put my trust, and to Him I turn in all of my affairs and in repentance."(42:10).

(Paradise) is better and more lasting for those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah Islamic Monotheism) and put their trust in their Lord (concerning all of their affairs).(42:36).





And in Allah let the believers put their trust.(58:10).

" Our Lord! In You (Alone) we put our trust, and to You (Alone) we turn in repentance, and to You (Alone) is (our) final Return"(60:4).

Allah! None has the right to be worshipped but He, and in Allah (Alone), therefore, let the believers put their trust. (64:13).

Say (O Mohammed (sallallaho-alaihe-wasallam:SAW): "He is the Most Beneficent (Allah), in Him we believe, and in Him we put our trust..." (67:29).


Chapter 65 - Surah At-Talaq


And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty). (65:2).



And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine. And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him. Verily, Allah will accomplish his purpose. Indeed Allah has set a measure for all things.(65:3).


Whoever disbelieves in Taghut and believes in Allah, then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold that will never break. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower. (2:256).


And whosoever submits his face (himself) to Allah, while he is a Muhsin (good-doer), then he has grasped the most trustworthy hand-hold. And to Allah return all matters for decision.(31:22).


"Allah (Alone) is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us)." (3:173).


So worship Him (Alone), and He is the Wakil (Trustee, Disposer of affairs, Guardian, etc.) over all things. (6:102)


And Allah is a Wakil (Disposer of affairs, Trustee, Guardian, etc.) over all things. (11:12)


Allah is the Creator of all things, and He is the Wakil (Trustee, Disposer of affairs, Guardian, etc.) over all things.( 39:62. ).

Whoso among you disbelieveth after this will go astray from a plain road.

And because of their breaking their covenant, We (Allah) have cursed them and made hard their hearts. They change words from their context and forget a part of that whereof they were admonished. Thou wilt not cease to discover treachery from all save a few of them. But bear with them and pardon them. Lo! Allah loveth the kindly.

And with those who say: "Lo! we are Christians," We made a covenant, but they forgot a part of that whereof they were admonished. Therefor We have stirred up enmity and hatred among them till the Day of Resurrection, when Allah will inform them of their handiwork.

(Major Sins, al-Kabaa'ir) from Islamic point of view, must be understood well; so that we can desist from them. This is taken from Umdat us-Salik, or Reliance of the Traveller, which in turn is an edited form of the Kitab al-Kaba'ir by Imam Dhahabi.
An enormity is described as any sin entailing either a threat of punishment in the hereafter explicitly mentioned in the Qur'an or Hadiths, a prescribed legal penalty (hadd), or being accursed by Allah or His messenger (peace & blessings of Allah be upon him).
Being aware of that which will lead us to the hell fire; is obligatory for every Muslim to learn and understand, since many of the enormities deal with the sins of the tongue.


ABOMINATION 

has 3 senses:
1. a person who is loathsome or disgusting
2. hate coupled with disgust
3. an action that is vicious or vile; an action that arouses disgust or abhorrence
