selfie time (Muhasabah) Allah says, “Then, after that, your hearts were hardened and became as stones or even worse in hardness.” [Al-Baqarah 2:74. Imam Al-Qurtubi said explaining this verse: “Hardness means rigidness, harshness and stiffness. It is an expression for (hearts) which are devoid of repentance and submissiveness to Allah’s Ayaat (signs and verses).” Tafsir Al-Qurtubi (1/430). Nauzubillah ... This verse is a great reminder for us to keep praying for a soften heart.A tender heart is recipient to Allahs taufiq & hidayah inshaAllah.And during my recent balik kg, I saw before my eyes how hardened heart had caused an over 40-year mother(we truly have to be extra careful when reaching age 40) treating horrendously an elderly mother in law who has supported her family in terms of monetary (new car purchase & also topping up balance settlement for the old car, house construction completion, buying food, rewarding her sons excellence exam result with expensive Singapore trip & a lot more since the beginning of their relationship).I regret that I was on the wrong side all this while believing her stories that made her victim.Astaghfirullah.. Thank you Allah to have opened our hearts to witness her true colours recently. Saddest thing her 18 year daughter is raised with attitude & life that headed for destruction. And surviving an accident without a scratch, I thought to myself about the magnitude of this miracle,amazed at the miraculous power of God,I promise to raise my children in ways to please our CREATOR InshaAllah Ameen .. May Allah swt remedy our all fragile hearts.
