Why did Allah create us?
By Allah, brothers, Allah did not give us existence nor did
he created us but for testing and trial. Allah wants to see whether we obey him
and enter paradise, or disobey him and become amongst the inhabitants of hell.Qur’an
67:1-2 Allah says:“Blessed is He in whose hand is dominion, and He is over all
things competent”.“(He) who created death and life to test you (as to) which of
you is best in deed-and He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving”Allah only created us for his worship and to submit to his
oneness.Qur’an
51:55-56 Allah says:“And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the
believers”.“And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship
Me”
Turn Back
To Allah
It is time for us to look in the direction of faith and
blessing. We all agree that we will find happiness with Allah. That our
religion is honor. That our faith is the reason for our happiness. This is why
the goals for these gatherings is to strengthen each other. It’s time for us to
say: O you who complain of the troubles of this life be delighted, for Allah
has made this Manhaj (methodology) clear.
O you who complain of the troubles of this life, be
delighted, for Allah has made this Manhaj (methodology) clear.
Whoever fears Allah (His glory is great) He will make a way
out for every difficulty.
Bilal Ibn Rabah(may Allah be pleased with him) had nothing in
this earth. He was a slave from Abbysinia, who did not even own his own life.
He accepted Islam, and became a companion of the Prophet (Peace be upon him)
listening to Qur’an.
The disbelievers found out about him accepting Islam and they
said to him: Do you return to your religion??? They unclothed him and dragged
him in the heat of Makkah, in the middle of the day and they placed a huge
stone on his chest and they flogged and hit him and they said to him: Do you
return to your religion??? His answer was: “The One and Only” (AhadunAhad)
Meaning:
“there is no true God but Allah”
And they increase the torment, hitting and flogging him until
Abu Baker Sidique (may Allah be pleased with him) freed Bilal (may Allah be
pleased with him).
And the companions asked him:
O Bilal, you were flogged and hit, but you never stopped
saying “AhadunAhad” How were you so patient??? He answered: I mixed the beauty
of faith with the sourness of the torment. The beauty of faith overshadowed the
sourness of the torment so I did not feel anything.
By Allah we need to taste this sweetness of Iman. Many of our
youngsters today drive the best cars and wear the best clothes. Their lives are
filled with lusts, parties and in the end and in the end they say “I am bared
out of my mind” This has spread among our youngsters. Every other day we hear
that someone has ended their life. They do not lack anything from this Earth.
They lack connection with Allah.
