These days my favourite quote is a Hadith of our Beloved Prophet (s.a.w) recorded in Sahih Muslim: When Allah loves a slave then his worries are mostly about his lack of fulfilling Allah’s rights (not giving due right of Allah) and when Allah is angry with a person then his worries are mostly about the things (of the world) which he has been given. I love this Hadith so much because it gives us an important clue to our status with Allah. A believer is always concerned with whether Allah is happy with him or not… so all he has to do is to evaluate his thoughts and see what is his chief conern ? Is he worried about fulfilling the rights of Allah and making plans and putting his best effort in doing so? or is he just worried about collecting the benefits of this world… happy if he gets them and depressed if he loses anything? and this makes me realize the importance of our thoughts… Allah values us for what we think… why? because our actions are a direct consequece of the way we think… So if we want Allah to love us then we must re-direct our thoughts away from selfish concerns and focus on the real issue of our life which is to fulfill Allah’s rights and the more we try to make Allah happy the more he will love us and fill our hearts with happiness, peace and contentment.
