Trust and Rely on Allah Above All
Place your trust in Allah more than anyone or anything in this world.
If Allah wills, HE will unveil the reality of what happens when we rely on anything more than HIM.
At times, we may place our trust entirely in things—like medical treatment, emotional support, or people—thinking they will bring relief or security. But if Allah does not will healing or ease through them, even those means can become a source ...See more

'The comfort zone is a psychological state in which one feels familiar, safe, at ease, and secure. If you always do what is easy and choose the path of least resistance, you never step outside your comfort zone. Great things don’t come from comfort zones.' Roy T. Bennett
It is time to step outside of your comfort zone for the sake of Allah.

These verses embody for me a beautiful conversation between Allah (SwT) and Prophet Musa peace be upon him, whereas Allah asks Musa about his stick before asking him to throw it away.
He (SwT) in His majesty, connected with Musa before giving him a command, asking him about his stick and why it matters to him.
And prophet Musa responds as if he is speaking with a close friend (and to Allah belongs the utmost example of perfection).

I have shared my thoughts on this incident of Musa alayhis salam before, but today I want to reflect on it from a different angle.
When Allah SWT asked,
'And what is that in your right hand, O Moses?'
Instead of giving a to-the-point answer, Musa alayhis salam went on to add some extra details too.
He replied,
'It is my staff! I lean on it, and with it I beat down ˹branches˺ for my sheep, and have other uses for...See more

After Moses AS lists all the benefits that he derives from his staff, he is asked by Allah SWT to let go of it.
And after seeing his staff turn into an intimidating snake, he is asked by Allah SWT to not only approach it, but to grab it.
What better way to show Moses AS that all benefit and harm is solely in the Hands of Allah SWT than by having him let go of what he views as beneficial, and approach that which he deems to be harmful.

The next time you recite Surah Al Taha in your Salah especially, or outside of it. Imagine yourself to be Musa ( Alayhi Assalaam) and replace your life story with his life story,
Outside of Salah pretend to have that conversation and reflect and see how your Lord Has favored you and chosen you, and shaped you for who you are and then take on life with in mind.
I speak to myself with this reflection. May Allah Grant Wisdom to appreciate His favor...See more

Telling him to come forth and take the stick before telling him to not have fear indicates he may still have fear before approaching the snake but the fear will go away once complying. This is preparing him for his mission to go to Pharoah though he feels fear at first, but knowing Allah will cause the fear to go away. A lesson for us when we feel apprehension before doing what Allah has commanded us. Do it and the fear will dissipate.

How do I know that my failure is because I am doing something wrong or because it is the will of Allah?
In the 10th-11th years of the prophecy, prophet Mohammad SAAW went through the toughest times of his life. He lost his uncle and his wife. He was isolated for 2-3 years, he got no more protection and no wife to support him and heal his scars. He was at risk and he had to find a place just to at least stay alive in.

Allah describes His book as, 'a Book of perfect consistency and repeated lessons—which causes the skin of those who fear their Lord to tremble.'
Do you ever read a surah and you can sense that another surah is echoed or reflected? For me it is not immediately obvious, but something, maybe a similar phrase or key word will tip me off to a pattern of similarity. It is possible that this similarity is just in my imagination - maybe these threads r...See more
