On my way back from Boston, in the airplane I was reading Surah Tuba and this ayath really made me think about my “amal”, I thought maybe some other guppies will find it useful.
009.040 Those who believe, and suffer exile and strive with might and main, in Allah’s cause, with their goods and their persons, have the highest rank in the sight of Allah: they are the people who will achieve (salvation)
Re: One of the Ways to Salvation
You know what would be interesting. If we could take certain insipiring verses/ayahs and have discussions about them.
Re: One of the Ways to Salvation
Kaleem Bhai 
Good Idea. The only concern remains will be ayaah taken out of context. Just keep an understanding on that and we all shall learn to practice 
PS: by the way, I did try that idea, no one, except for a few, seemed interested because everyone was fighting in shia sunni threads 
Re: One of the Ways to Salvation
:k: Thanks for sharing.
Re: One of the Ways to Salvation
jazakAllah khayr…
but the verse is 9:20 and not 9:40 as u have mistakenly said…
verse 9:40 is interestingly a very good example of a person who did attain the highest rank when he believed, suffered exile and strove with might and main, and surely he has attained salvation…
yes, it talks about the yaar-e-ghaar, the highest ranking man of the ummah of Muhammad (saw)…
