Hadith]
Rasul Allah, sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam, said, “Verily, Allah
does not look at your appearance or your possessions; rather He
looks at your heart and your deeds.”
Saheeh Muslim
[Lessons from this Hadith]
In our daily lives, most people measure each other by their
looks or their possessions (their car, their homes, etc.).
The One we MUST impress is Allah, and that is done with a clean
forgiving heart, and with righteous deeds.
For the next seven days, ask yourself throughout the day, “How
can I clean my heart now even more?”
With best wishes to see you succeed at the highest level!
We take guidance from none other than Quran and none other than Prophet:saw: himself, and Syedna Muhammad ar Rasoolulah :saw: said and exact interpretation of which is: **Hearts get rusted too just like your swords get rusted. **
Sahaaba-e-Kiraam Ridhwaanullah Aleyhim asked:* Oh Prophet of Allah :saw:, when our swords get rusted, we rub them to make them shine again. Is there a remedy for the rusted hearts as well?*
Rasoolulah:saw: replied: Indeed, there is! Reading of Quran as well as rememberance of death in abundance.
