Description
- Allahﷻ created everything in pairs. - The eyes by themselves can't see. It needs Light. Eyes & Light are a pair, Nur 'ala Nur. - Hence Man without Light,...
show more- Allahﷻ created everything in pairs.
- The eyes by themselves can't see. It needs Light. Eyes & Light are a pair, Nur 'ala Nur.
- Hence Man without Light, is blind. Most of Mankind today are totally blind, wandering into very dangerous situations, oblivious to the immense danger that they are in, constantly.
- Because we are blind, we cannot see what is of danger to us. A person sitting in a dark room of cobras, scorpions and other poisonous creatures, feels safe & happy, because he cannot see them. But once the light is switched on, he will be filled with fear and flee the room to safety.
- Hence Allahﷻ says - fafirru illallah - run to Allahﷻ (for safety).
- A person eating haram without fear, cannot see the true dirty nature of such haram food. But with the light of faith, he will see haram for what it really is, reject it, and seek out halal.
- Similarly, a married man having an affair with a married woman, only sees the beauty & pleasure of the illicit affair, and does not see the dirtiness, illness, poison and danger of the toxic relationship as they are both blinded by lust. Once their hearts are illuminated with the light of hidayah, then they see the weight of the sin and they will run to safety from adultery.
- The punishment for an adulterer in Jahannam is exactly that - the couple will be shown sumptuous food and rotting food with revolting pus and maggots... yet they will choose the disgusting food over the delightful food, just as they chose haram over halal, in this life.
- So seek the light of guidance, knowledge and faith. Bask in the safety of Nur (Light), to be saved from the Nar (Fire).
- Our Sheikh is visiting to bring Lights to the hearts of all his mureeds. Seek this light. Seek the light of understanding of deen. For when Allahﷻ desires goodness for a servant, He grants him/her understanding in religion. And that understanding is a Light that illuminates the knowledge in our hearts, showing us its wisdoms and secrets, bringing us closer to the Divine.
