    As human beings, we intrinsically seek safety, security and stability, and thus we seek control. As the world appears to be spiraling out of control and into chaos, it is very normal to be experiencing heightened states of stress, anxiety, worry and fear.
    In this video, I point to the source of safety, security and stability, and how our relationship with our Lord and Creator is key to experiencing peace even when the outer world appears to be spiraling out of control.

    I don't even know how to thank Allah for this video. I came across this message exactly the moment that I was needing to hear it. May All Allah 's blessings be upon this CZcams channel.

    Mashallah. Throughout most of my life I have been taught to honour the ego, seeing the reality of Divine truth only as a dim and distant, unattainable entity. Your insight and faith transmits the possibility of developing a meaningful relationship with the source of an all encompassing Divine truth into clear focus once more. A Wonderful union of every thing good and free from the grasp of crippling fear
    I may not be ready to encounter the face of my Sheikh, my mentor not yet visible on any distant horizon, every which way I look, but I know I am exactly where I need to be Thank you for your teachings and inspiring example of faith and surrender brother Ihsan. ❤

    To 'Surrender to the will of God' in ALL affairs, we have been seeing this being practiced wholly in Palestine for the last 6 months...Even within chaos they remain present to the will of their Lord...This seige is here to teach us a very important lesson, death is but a portal to the presence of Allah almighty, returning back to our original state...

    As humans, we
    dance the knife
    edge between
    chaos and order,
    with God to keep
    our balance.

    I don't understand the notion of this world not being real. Not permanent, yes. But how can it be no real?

    • @hadyzahadamu8174
      @hadyzahadamu8174 Před 2 měsíci +2

      It's impermanence is what makes it unreal. This is why Allah is Al-Haqq: The Real, because he never changes.

    Brother Ihsan actually I have a question,sometimes when I seek forgiveness I dont feel it with my heart but sometimes I do it truly with heart but anyways I never stop and I make around 2000 istighfar daily and also I do Alhamdulillah but surely dhikr helps me with the REMEMBERANCE of Allah
    Is it ok to not feel sometimes but the tongue being moist with dhikr of Allah?

    • @spiritualexcellence
      @spiritualexcellence  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Salaams. Feelings ebb and flow, and true faith cannot be dependent on the changing states we experience. Hence, the greatest and most meritorious of actions are those that are done *consistently*, even if minimal. So to your question, I would say yes absolutely.

  • @TheWayOfRespectAndKindness
    @TheWayOfRespectAndKindness Před 2 měsíci +1

    Respectfully, to say that Allah is in absolute control negates our service to Allah. This idea also blames Allah for our own transgressions and failures. We need to acknowledge that Allah chose not to exercise absolute control, and for this reason our service to Allah is required. Allah gives life, what we make of it is up to us. May we recognize that we serve Allah by serving Allah's creation.
