And do not forget kindness towards one another. –[2:237]

اللهم إني أسالك التوبة قبل الموت والعفو عند الحساب

O Allah, I ask You for repentance before death and forgiveness at the time of reckoning

“Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ, through an infinite variety of subtle graces and goodness, invited people to Himself, but they did not respond to His call, so He afflicted them with diverse calamities, that by means of this torment they might return to Him, for He loves His creation.”

-Fatima Al-Nisaburiya.

“People face a lot of problems these days [in their lives]. But this is not new. People have always had problems in the past. It’s not new for us. What’s new is that we don’t know how to cope with these problems in our lives- and we don’t know the root. The root of our problems is spiritual and we must learn how to cope. And they won’t be removed unless we discover the wealth of spirituality present in our religion.”

— Shaykh Muhammad Al-Yaqoubi

I’ve searched for safety among people and found none. Only in speaking to Allah does my heart feel secure.

"Exercise for 'reversing space,' which involves sitting very still, with all attention focussed in the centre of the chest, and slowly surrendering and realising that instead of looking you are being observed; instead of hearing, you are being heard; instead of touching you are being touched; instead of tasting you are food for God and are being tasted... it is most certainly necessary to seek, to ask the question; rather than pushing away the answer by chasing after it, one must ask and listen at the same time, in trust and good faith that the answer is contained in the question."

~ Reshad Feild, 'The Last Barrier'

Even when it feels like you’re alone, Allah sees every tear, every pang of the heart, every longing you can’t voice. He knows the depth of your grief and your love. Sometimes, just sitting with that and whispering a dua, even silently, can bring a thread of comfort... A quiet reminder that you’re never truly without Him.

Dependence on Allah is the greatest security. Every blessing, every ease, every opening begins with Him.

These text pages are from Isl. Ms. 412, an early manuscript copy of Vesîletüʼn-necat (full title وسيلة النجات في مولد أشرف الموجودات) the famous Ottoman Turkish poem celebrating the qualities of the Prophet Muhammad authored by Süleyman Çelebi of Bursa (d.1422). The poem is among the most famous of the mawlid (mevlid) genre, literary texts written to be read and recited on occasions celebrating the Prophet’s birth. The poem is structured in prosody suited to simple Turkish expressions — more accessible to the common people — and throughout invites response from the reader or listener to invoke blessings on the Prophet.
