LESSON OF THE DAY 437

Eid Mubarak!

Ayah of the Day:
"Our Lord, You do indeed know what we conceal and what we reveal; and nothing on earth nor in the sky is hidden from God."[14: 38]

Hadith of the Day:
When a believer falls sick, Allah purifies him/her just as a furnace removes impurities from iron. [Bukhari]

Wise Quote of the Day:
Do not hope for anything but God, and do not fear anything but your sin. [Ali radi Allah anhu]

Guidance of the Day:
We are all enjoined to ask Allah for a good conclusion to our lives (husn al khatima), since the most excellent life if concluded wrongly will be of no avail. The weakest moments in one's life is the moment of death and this is when one is most vulnerable to the action of the Devil, if one's faith is weak due to deviant beliefs, illusory attachments, sins, and so on, he may well succumb to the Satanic onslaught of the last moment and dies a kafir.

But he whose faith is strong, whose main attachment is to Allah and His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and whose behavior is, in the main in conforming with Shari'a, he will receive the support of the angels and men of Allah and be able to resist Devil's insidious attacks. [The Prophetic Invocations]

Food for Thought:
This life is a moment; fill it with obedience.
