Why don’t we Smile?

Why do we save our smiles when our Role model Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) used to smile the most? We see that people who are religious tend to have serious faces , they hardly smile. I’ve heard people relating the incidents of lives of saints who didn’t smile their whole life. Let us change this concept. Ideal for us is the Life of the Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). Islam does not stop us from smiling in fact it encourages. It gives us reasons to smile. So beautify your faces with a smile. The smallest distance between two people is smile.

What does it take to Smile?

We hardly have to move a muscle to smile but the effect a smile has is tremendous. It can win the hearts. It can take care of very tense situations. Smile begets smile. Smile, and the world will smile back at you. Smile at the nature and the nature will smile back at you. Smile is a good way to express your pleasure. Actions speak louder than words. How often you find it so hard to express your Love for some, your pleasure on some happening. A smile would do just the thing.

“Whoever among you sees an evil action, then let him change it with his hand, if he cannot, then with his tongue, and if he cannot, then with his heart and that is the weakest of faith.”

Have you ever met someone guilty of cannibalism? Probably not, yet if many of us who gossiped were to go by any name – it would be this. This is the way backbiting is described in Islam and many of us know it.

Allah warns us: “O you who believe! Avoid much suspicion, indeed some suspicions are sins. And spy not neither backbite one another. Would one of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? You would hate it (so hate backbiting). And fear God, verily, God is the one who accepts repentance, Most Merciful.” (49: 12) [I’ve made a poster out of this ayat too.Click here to see it]

As the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us, backbiting is “to say something about your brother that he would dislike.” Someone asked him: “But what if what I say is true?” The Messenger of Allah said: “If what you say about him is true, you are backbiting him, but if it is not true then you have slandered him.” [Muslim]

What to do when people gossip? Sometimes we feel we have been dragged into it and really want to avoid situations where gossip takes place, and though we really want to do it, we don’t know how toget out of the conversation let alone put a stop to it.

Here are some tips to help you out insha’Allah!

~Nadia

————————————————————————

p/s: We should not forget about Day on which we will be held accountable for our deeds. Remember backbiting is a bad reflection on your own character.

May Allah protect us from the whispers of the Syaitaan and keep us all away from Gossip. Ameen Ya Rabb!

Death is considered a certainty, to the point that you would fail to find any rational person who would deny it. It is a common observation that every thing, whether it consists of life or not, is destined towards annihilation.

What will confront man after death? What will become of him in the grave? How will he rise again on the Day of Judgement? These, are those states of affairs, which we have not yet witnessed. But Allah Ta’ala has made all these circumstances clear to us, in great detail, through his Messengers alaihimus salaam and lastly through the Holy Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihe wasallam who is the Seal of Prophethood.

Allah Ta’ala has also repeatedly made references, concerning these circumstances, in the Holy Qur’aan. It is therefore necessary upon every Muslim to believe in resurrection (to be brought back to life) and the Day of Judgement from the deepest recesses of their hearts. At present, if you were to hold a discussion regarding ‘Death and the Day of Judgement’, you will either be ignored or you will be given the impression that they are matters of no real concern.

As a Doctor I have witnessed the deaths of approximately a hundred Muslims, and have also been in a position of knowing their final words. Only three people, out of the hundred, were fortunate to have died with the kalimah at the moment of death. The others died with worldly concerns on their lips e.g. One person asked for a milkshake whereas another was singing. Some were praising the names of their film heroes whilst others were discussing matters regarding their estate.

During these last forty years of my life, which have largely been spent practising medicine, I have personally heard and/or seen many matters which I considered necessary to relate so that it may prove beneficial to the readers. May Allah Ta’ala gives us all divine guidance to prepare for the hereafter. Aameen.

…for without doubt in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find satisfaction.” (Surah Al-Rad, 13:28)

To be close to our Creator is a fundamental need of every human being and striving to achieve it can be the healing for our chaotic inner selves which, in turn, leads to:

Allah’s  love

Greater productivity

Confidence

Satisfaction and joy

Therefore, it is essential to exert effort in seeking closeness to your Creator. To begin with, the prescription to getting closer to Allah requires a few things from you:

Strong intention to get closer to Allah 

Patience

Consistency

Avoid doing nothing

While you are reading this phrase in the different parts of the world, with different reasons millions of people have died already.

And if you were to ask these people minutes before their death, none of them might have known that they would die in the next few minutes.

Whereas you who’s reading this article or me who’s writing this article, we might be living our last few minutes in this world; that maybe these are our last minutes on the earth to repent and to be closer to Allah.

If not today, one day we all will certainly die. Me, you, people we know and people we love will also die. After 100 years from now, no one we know today will be on earth.

People wake up every morning making plans upon plans upon plans for their lives not including death.

Even though most of these plans might never occur, death will certainly occur.

Death is a door that all of us will have to enter, no age limits no racial discrimination, all same and equal, everyone created from one same and single matter.

So return to your Lord, with a heart full of repentance for that is better for you.

Make Allah your first priority in everything, He will give you everything in return!

Allah says in a Hadith Qudsi reported in Al-Bukhari:

“And when I love him, I become his hearing with  which he hears, his sight with which he sees, his hand with which he grasps, and his foot with which he walks.  And if he asks Me [for something], I give it to him. If he seeks refuge with Me, I place him under My protection.  In nothing do I hesitate so much as I hesitate [to take] the soul of a believer.  He has a horror of death, and I have a horror of hurting him”

We have a body, encompassing the various organs, senses and cognitive faculties which are guiding principle for our awareness and development. Although these faculties are foundational and guiding instruments, they are not sufficient for realizing a higher transcendental, contented and spiritual individual.

When one observes oneself, one sees a lower base self or nafs al Ammara bis-soo, which is always in anguish to please the desire and the material aspect of the self. This soul is inclined towards evil.

The Noble Quran describes this self in Surah 12 Yusuf, Verse 53:

"Nor do I absolve my own self (of blame): the (human) soul is certainly prone to evil, unless my Lord do bestow His Mercy: but surely my Lord is Oft- forgiving, Most Merciful." This lower instigating self follows its whims that is disruptive and can progress to a self-reproaching or blaming soul which is called nafs al Lawwama.

The Glorious Quran in Surah 75 Al Qiyamah (The Resurrection), Verse 2 describes nafs al Lawwama:

“And I do call to witness the self-reproaching spirit” Sheikh Ibn Ata’illah Iskandri (R) a spiritual master of the Shadhiliyyah Sufi Order (Tariqa) who lived in Egypt in the 13th Century A.D (died 1309) tells us that these two levels and the lower character of these nafs are not close to Allah (S) and are not accepted by Him.

Science leads us to the conclusion that the universe has a Creator and this Creator is perfect in might, wisdom and knowledge. It is religion that shows us the way in knowing Allah. It is therefore possible to say that science is a method we use to better see and investigate the realities addressed by religion. Nevertheless, today, some of the scientists that step forth in the name of science take an entirely different stand. In their view, scientific discoveries do not imply the creation of Allah. They have, on the contrary, developed an atheist understanding of science by saying that it is not possible to reach Allah through scientific data. Therefore, they calaim that science and religion are two clashing notions.

As a matter of fact, this atheist understanding of science is quite recent. Until a few centuries ago, science and religion were never thought to be clashing with each other, and science was accepted to be a method proving the existence of Allah. The so-called atheist understanding of science flourished only after the materialist and positivist philosophies swept through the world of science in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Particularly after Charles Darwin postulated the theory of evolution in 1859, circles holding a materialistic world view started to ideologically defend this theory which they looked upon as an alternative against religion. The theory of evolution argued that the universe was not created by a creator but came into being by coincidence. As a result, it was asserted that religion was conflicting with science. English researchers Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh and Henry Lincoln comment on this issue and say that one and a half centuries before Darwin, science was not divorced from religion and was actually a part of it, its ultimate purpose being to serve it. At Darwin’s time, however, science was detached from its above-mentioned essence and defined itself as an absolute rival and an alternative concept against religion. These three researchers finally concluded that humanity was then on forced to make a choice between these two.(17)

The so-called split between science and religion was totally ideological. Some scientists who devotedly believed in materialism conditioned themselves to prove that the universe had no creator and they devised various theories in this context. The theory of evolution was the most famous and the most important of them. In the field of astronomy as well were developed some theories such as the “steady-state theory” or “chaos theory”. However, all of these theories that denied creation were demolished by science itself as we have shown clearly in the previous chapters.

Today, scientists who still keep to these theories and insist on their denial are dogmatic and bigoted people who have conditioned themselves not to believe in Allah. The famous English zoologist and evolutionist D.M.S. Watson confesses this dogmatism as he explains why he and his colleagues accept the theory of evolution. He states that the reason why the theory of evolution is widely accepted is not because there is sufficient evidence to prove it but because the other theory, that is, supernatural creation, is totally unacceptable.(1) www.LionOfAllah.com
