True Inspiring Islamic Stories !! True Incidents to gain wisdom from!

As-Salamu ^alykum wa Rahmatullah Wabarakatuh,Insha’llah we’ll make this thread devoted for true Islamic stories that are very inspiring and insha’llah we will be learning from such stories a great lesson. As you know, the most important thing in life is living as a Muslim and dying as a Muslim. Prophet Muhammad said which means: “no one enters hellfire if he’s a believer” and the believer is the one who believed in Allah the true belief and believed in Prophet Muhammad the true Belief. Even if he did not pray and committed sins other than Kuffur, he is still a believer as long as he does not blaspheme in Allah, and he dies on that belief.

Our First “Love” Story:

Once a Muslim young man loved a Christian girl, they wanted to get married but her parents would not accept because he was a Muslim! It was a big dilemma for them! But they both loved each other sincerely and thought nothing should separate them.

One day, the Muslim man got very ill and was dying, he was on the death bed. A friend of his was beside him, he told him: Say Shahadah, say La Ilaha Illa llah Muhammadun Rasulullah, but the Muslim man didn’t say it, he cried and told his friend: I’m afraid that if I die as Muslim I will not find my beloved in the hereafter!! So I want to become Christian hopefully I will meet her in the hereafter!! And he became Christian!! He came out of Islam, he became a murtad! And right after he went out of Islam he died! So he died as a non-Muslim.

The girl that he used to love came asking about her lover, she found his friend, she asked him: Have you seen that person (her lover)? He sadly told her that he died! But he did not tell her that he went out of Islam (Apostated). She was very sad and cried, and said: I fear not to meet him in the hereafter, So I bear witness that there’s no God except Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah! She embraced Islam! Later on she died, and died as a Muslim and her lover had died as a non-Muslim, she won Paradise and lost him, and he lost her and lost paradise and got hellfire.

Subhanallah, the wisdom behind this story is for one to remain steadfast onto Islam and keep the intention in the heart that I will live all my life on Islam and to stay patient over the hardships and calamities, and Allah will reward tremendously. We ask Allah to keep us stead fast to Islam, wal Hamdulillah.

Jazak Allah Bro

That was very inspirational

Masha-Allah quite an eye opener! do you know when the hollywood/lollywood/bollywood versions of this story will be out????

As I have mentioned, the purpose of saying these Islamic stories was to learn from them as much as we can, for, they were a lesson for others and we should learn from them.

Your Second True Inspiring story:…

It was during the time of Propeht Muhammad sallallahu ^alayhi wassallam. A Christian man once came to the Prophet Sallallahu ^alayhi wassallam during a battle, he asked the Prophet: “Should I become a Muslim or should I fight along with you”? The Prophet did not delay him a minute and told him: “Embrace Islam than fight”, so the man embraced Islam by uttering the Shahadah (La Ilaha Illallah Muhammadun Rasulullah) with the intention of embracing Islam, and so he became Muslim. Than that brand new Muslim went to fight and he got killed in the battlefield. The Prophet was informed about that and He said about him: “He accomplished a little yet gained tremendous amount of reward” That meant that the man did not pray, fast nor work on gaining deeds, but before his death by short time, he sincerely embraced Islam and died as a martyr in which he gains lots of reward in the hereafter; and you know what a Shaheed is and how much reward he gets! But if he had died before embracing Islam he will not see Paradise at all.

Only Muslims enter paradise, non-Muslims will enter hellfire with eternal punishment. Dying as a Muslim whether the person was a jew, Christian or any other religion, once they embrace Islam, Allah accepts their submission if they are sincere. No matter how much sins a Muslim believer commits, if he died without repentance, he will deserve the punishment in hellfire, but he will not remain there forever because he is a Muslim, eventually he will come out of hell and get washed by a river near Paradise and than he will enter paradise, and once he enters he will forget all pain and hardship he had and the enjoyment will start!!.

We call upon every freind in here that is not a Muslim to save his life in the hereafter from hellfire by embracing Islam imediately by saying: I bear witness that there's no God except Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad Is the messenger of Allah, and with the intention of embracing Islam, one becomes a Muslim.

We ask Allah to let us die as Muslims and to protect us from the punishment of hellfire. Ameen.

Continuing on with our stories that insha’llah they will serve the prupose.

Imam Abu Hanifah and the Qadariah

Continuing on with our stories that insha’llah they will server the pruposeImam Abu Hanifah radiallahu ^anhu who was the strongest debator against al-Qadariah and Al-Mushabihah (Those who liken Allah to his creations), he had a debate with Qadariah (Those who claim that creations and actions come to existence by themselves – Such as ibn taymiah that said the world is eternal with Allah!!). Qadariah told him to meet him at certain time in a certain place, and he told them that he will be there; for the debate. The Qadariah gathered up and waited, and waited. Imam Abu Hanifah was late for the meeting. Once he approached them, they told him: “Abu Hanifah you calim to be at your promises as a Muslim and you come later!!” he told them: “You can not believe what happened to me on the way! While I was walking I saw a big river blocking my way! I looked, I saw a tree, its branches were breaking and gathering together, and the tree got assembled and became a boat! So I used it to cross the boadt!!” They said: “Are you mocking us?! How could all of that happen by itself?!!” He said: “If that you can’t accept that all of that happened by itself, how could you believe and accept that the whole world comes by itself!!”. The arguers were refuted. And that’s one of the logical proves that there can’t be a creation without a creator, there can’t be a building without a builder, nor can there be writings without a writer, therefore, this world has a creator and that creator must be attributed with full perfection.

Our Fourth Informative Story

Once A Qadari (Who believes that slaves create their own actions) came to argue with a Sunni. The Qadari stood infront of the sunni and broke a branch from a tree nearby!! And he told him: “Look I broke that branch with my own will and power”! The sunni told him: “Well, bring it back as it was!!” That means he may be able to break it but he may not bring is as it was, because Allah is the one creates from the state of non existence to the state of existence. Therefore, Allah is the one who creates everything, from the biggest creations (Al-^Arsh; Throne) to the smallest creation (Atom; the body that is indivisible), intentions and thoughts all by the creating of Allah and the will of the slave is under the will of Allah. Allah Knows best.
