[anaseshaafi]

"يُعطيك الله قبلَ أن تسأل، ويُعطيك وأنتَ تسأل، ويُعطيك دونَ أن تسأل."

“Allah gives you before you ask, and gives you while you are asking, and gives you without you asking.”

[anaseshaafi]

‏إذا أراد الله أن يُنيلك أمرًا سخّر لك من لا يخطر ببالك، ولرُبّما أجراه على يد من لا يريد؛ لتعلم أن الله يحكم ما يريد!

If Allah wants to grant you something, He will cause to come to you those you would never have imagined, and He may bring it about through someone who does not even wish it for you—so that you may know that God ordains what He wills!

[anaseshaafi]

السبب في شقاء الإنسان، أنه يزهد في سعادة يومه بتطلعه لسعادة غده، فإذا جاء غده اعتقد أن أمسه خير من يومه، فيشقى في حاضره وماضيه.

The reason for human misery is that they forsake the happiness of their present day by longing for the happiness of tomorrow. When tomorrow comes, they believe that yesterday was better than today, and so they suffer in both their present and their past.

‏المنفلوطي.

[anaseshaafi]

‏كل عام ونعمة الله عليكم في زيادة، كل عام وأعيادكم بالأفراح مغمورة.

May Allah's blessings upon you continue to increase with every passing year, and may your Eids always be filled with joy.

[anaseshaafi]

"لا يسيء الظن بنفسه إلا من عرفها، ومن أحسن ظنه بنفسه فهو من أجهل الناس بنفسه".

“No one thinks poorly of himself except one who truly knows himself, and whoever thinks too highly of himself is among the most ignorant of people about himself.”

ابن القيم | مدارج السالكين ط: الكتاب العربي (١٨٩/١)

[anaseshaafi]

"ستمر بك الأيام فإذا نزل بك الموت؛ فكأنك ولدت تلك الساعة، وكل ما مضى ليس بشيء".

“Days will pass, and when death comes to you, it will be as if you were just born at that moment, and everything that passed before will feel like nothing.”

ابن عثيمين | مجموع فتاوى ورسائل العثيمين (٤٠٣/٨)

"والشدة بتراء لا دوام لها وإن طالت".

“Hardship is barren, it does not last, even if it feels long.”

[anaseshaafi]

من لاذَ باللهِ سرَّه.

Whoever seeks refuge in Allah finds tranquility.

[anaseshaafi]

"لا عيش في الدنيا إلا للقنوع باليسير؛ فإنه كلما زاد الحرص على فضول العيش، زاد الهم، وتشتت القلب، واستعبد العبد".

"There is no true life in this world except for the one content with little; for the more one desires the excesses of life, the more his worry increases, his heart scatters, and he becomes enslaved."

ابن الجوزي | صيد الخاطر (ص ٤٩٤)

[anaseshaafi]

‏مهما عز طلبك تذكر قُدرة الله.

No matter how difficult your request is, remember the power of Allah.

[anaseshaafi]

‏"من تمارض مَرِض، ومن تفاقر افتقر، ومن تذلل ذُل ومن تهاون هان، ومن اعتز عز، ومن استحصن حُصن، ومن استعصم عُصم. أنت حصيلة ماتمليه على نفسك."

"He who feigns illness becomes ill, he who feigns poverty becomes poor, he who humbles himself is humiliated, he who is negligent is degraded, he who holds himself in high regard is honored, he who fortifies himself is protected, and he who seeks refuge is safeguarded. You are the sum of what you dictate to yourself."

[anaseshaafi]

وسَحابُ الخَيرِ لَهُ مطرٌ = فإذا جاء الإبَّانُ تَجِي

وفَوائِدُ مولانا جُمَلٌ = لشُروح الأنفسِ والمُهَجِ

The clouds of goodness carry rain — and when their time arrives, it surely falls.

The blessings of our Lord are abundant — to heal and uplift souls and spirits.

[anaseshaafi]

المشغول ببناء نفسه، لا يملك وقتاً لهدم غيره. الشخص المكتفي بحياته يرى في الانشغال بغيره مضيعة للوقت، أما صاحب الحياة الفارغة فيحاول تعويض نقصه بالتطفل والمناكفة. راحة بالك تبدأ من قناعة واحدة: اعتزال هؤلاء هو قمة الكرامة.

The one busy building himself has no time to tear others down. A person who is content with his life sees focusing on others as a waste of time, while someone with an empty life tries to fill his lack by interfering and provoking others. Peace of mind begins with one belief: staying away from such people is true dignity.

[anaseshaafi]

"أحيانًا لا يُدرك العبد أن الله يسوقه إلى نجاته في ثوبٍ من المَنع، أو في طريقٍ لم يَختره. يُغلَقُ باب، فيظنّ أنه حُرِم، وهو في الحقيقة نُجِّي. تتعسّر الأمور، فيظنّها ابتلاءً، وهي رحمةٌ تتقدّم عليه بخُطواتٍ خفيّة. فالله -جلَّ شأنُه- قد يمنع لِتُعطَى، ويُبعِد لِتُحمَى."

Sometimes a person does not realize that Allah is leading him to his safety through something that seems like denial, or along a path he did not choose. A door closes, and he thinks he has been deprived, when in reality he has been saved. Things become difficult, and he sees them as a trial, while they are mercy moving ahead of him in unseen ways. For Allah, Glorified is He, may withhold so that you are given, and may distance so that you are protected.

[anaseshaafi]

﴿فَلَا تَعْلَمُ نَفْسٌ مَّا أُخْفِيَ لَهُم مِّن قُرَّةِ أَعْيُنٍ جَزَاءً بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ﴾

“No soul knows what joy has been hidden for them as a reward for what they used to do.”

المرجع: سورة السجدة، الآية 17

[anaseshaafi]

بعد انقضاء أولى أيام العيد، لحظة استدراك أن في الجنة ستكون كل أيامنا عيد؛ حيث رؤية الله، وأنس بالأَحِبة، ووصل الأرحام، ووجوه ناضرة مبتسمة، وملابس من سندس واستبرق، لا مهام تقضى ولا عيون تبكي ولا فراق فيها.

After the first days of Eid pass, comes a moment of reflection: in Paradise, all our days will be Eid—where we will see Allah, enjoy the company of loved ones, stay connected with family, and have radiant, smiling faces, dressed in silk and fine garments. There will be no tasks to complete, no tears, and no separation.
