Do not grieve, my child
Look around and you will see,
That the sky is still blue
And the sun still shines
And the birds still sing the praises of Allah
And the evergreen flowers still kindly bloom
And when darkness falls, the night awakens
By the glorious moon and the twinkling stars
And the breeze still blows to clear the air
The trees still shed leaves to enrich the earth
The rain still falls and the rivers still flow
And the grass is still fresh and green
The hens still lay the gorgeous eggs
And the cows still provide the nourishing milk
And the cat still purrs, while the dog still barks
And the female still carries the miracle
As the babies still cry and suckle
And when I smile at you
You smile back to me
So ponder upon the beautiful creation of our Lord
At the break of dawn and the coming of dusk
For in contemplation and remembrance of Allah
The Creation finds the sanctuary
And our faith is surely strengthened
While our hearts rest in peace
And whilst you read the Kalimah beloved
The world will not reach the end

[@ayeshasyed9158]

maybe you can read your poems out loud on your channel so we can hear it too? they deserve to be heard.

[@yusafahmed3497]

The notion that if your have greater Iman equates to less problems is quite false perhaps it makes your more resilient but the ones who are tested most are those with iman respective to their degree of nearness to Him and what an Honour that Honour is

[@kausamsalam8543]

Wow, profound concept. May more people understand this complex concept, In’sha’Allah.

[@yusafahmed3497]

@@kausamsalam8543 the Prophets are the ones who were tested most and yet they are the best among all creation and the highest in ranks among the creation

[@riniym]

thank you, your presentation is so enlightened, as usual. Instead of mental health, I prefer to call it heart wellness now

[@fatimah9202]

In the breaking of dawn
The passing of the night
The rising of the Sun
And the hymming of sparrows
I saw you Allah
In the drops of rain
The sprouting of seeds
The blooming of the rose
And the scents of Spring
I saw you Allah
In the union of marriage
The signs of conception
The endurance of a mother
And the birth of a child
I saw you Allah
In the play of the toddler
The passions of youth
The dedication of a father
And the shield of morality
I saw you Allah
In the trials of life
The soreness of the heart
The weakness of limbs
And the consolement from prayer
I saw you Allah
In the leaving of the day
The glory of the moon
In the final breath
And the tears of the family
I saw you Allah
In the calling of the cockeral
The lamenting of the dogs
The harkening of the blackbird
And the silence of the wind
I saw you Allah
As I overheard the compelling warning
"O mankind hasten towards good
Lest death soon overtakes you"

Thank you for this information, Dr. Sheikh Rothman. May Allah bless you and the families there.
Glad this lesson is here, and anyone can suffer depressions and other issues related to one’s life phases, even those who understand Allah’s many mercies.
May we all allow ourselves the leeway of finding that balance and not judge too much the imbalances in fellow worshippers.

[@fatimah9202]

O my child
Your life
Is Your sacred journey
To Allah(God)
Everyone else
And everything else
Is a Trust from Allah
And the means for You
To reach Allah
Either you uphold the Trust
Through the guidance
Of Qur'an and Sunnah
And walk the straight path
Safely to Allah
Or You ignore the guidance
And You neglect or abuse the Trust
And You lose your way
From the path to Allah
O my child
Your life
Is Your sacred journey
To Allah
It is about what You engage in
And how You behave with people
And how You react to others
And Not about what people do
And how they engage with You
Nor how they react to You
So keep one eye sternly
On Your own character and behaviour
Whilst continuously excusing others
Until the other eye, eventualy finds
The goodness in people
O my child
Your life
Is Your sacred journey
To Allah
Do not waste it

Jesus, the Son of God, says, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life."

[@MK-uu2nb]

Yes, the way to God like all other Prophets.

[@bazuin45]

@@MK-uu2nb
Jesus added to His statement the following sentence: "No one comes to the Father, God, but through Me".
His road ends in the Light
That means there is no other way. So it follows that you are on a false road if you follow Muhammad, that road ends in Darkness

[@NISARQC]

​@@bazuin45 Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is the final messenger of God and Muslims also believe in Prophet Jesus.

[@bazuin45]

@@NISARQC I'm sorry for you, you are misinformed. According to the Bible, Jesus, God's Son, is in whom God spoke last.
The Son is God’s ultimate messenger Hebrews 1
1In the past, God spoke through the prophets to our ancestors in many times and many ways. 2In these final days, though, he spoke to us through a Son. God made his Son the heir of everything and created the world through him. 3The Son is the light of God’s glory and the imprint of God’s being. He maintains everything with his powerful message

[@NISARQC]

@@bazuin45 You need to read the Quran the final word of God. The Bible has been changed many times and therefore it causes people like you to be lost so please get a copy of the Quran and read and you will see the light.
