You sold your Deen....


This is a true story of a Niqabi sister in France.
After picking groceries in the supermarket, the Niqabi sister stood in the line to pay. After few minutes, her turn came up at the checkout counter. The checkout girl, who was non Hijabi Arab Muslim girl started to scan the items of the Niqabi sister one by one and then she looked at her with arrogance and said:

”We have in France many problems,……your Niqab is one of them!! We, immigrants, are here for trade and not to show our Deen or history! If you want to practice your Deen and wear Niqab then go back to your Arab country and do whatever you want!!” 

The Niqabi sister stopped putting her grocery in the bag and took off her Niqab… The checkout girl was shocked! The Niqabi girl, who was blond with blue eyes told her: 

“I am a French girl, not an Arab immigrant! This is my country and THIS IS MY ISLAM!! You born Muslims sold your Deen and we bought it from you."

All praise to Allah (swt) 

"...And if YOU turn away (from ISLAM and the obedience of Allah), He will exchange you for some other people, and they will not be your lines."
(The holy Quoran, Surah Muhammad)

Control your anger

Once a Wise Man was walking from one town to another town with some of his disciples. While they were traveling, they happened to pass a lake.They stopped there and the Wise Man told one of his disciples:

"I am thirsty. Do get me some water from that lake there."

The disciple walked up to the lake. When he reached it, he noticed that right at that moment, a bullock cart started crossing through the lake. As a result, the water became very muddy, very turbid.
The disciple thought: 
 
"How can I give this muddy water to Wise Man to drink!"

So he came back and told the Wise Man:
 
"The water in there is very muddy. I don't think it is fit to drink."

After about half an hour, again Wise Man asked the same disciple to go back to the lake and get him some water to drink. The disciple obediently went back to the lake. This time too he found that the lake was muddy. He returned and informed the Wise Man about the same.
After sometime, again the Wise Man asked the same disciple to go back. The disciple reached the lake to find the lake absolutely clean and clear with pure water in it. The mud had settled down and the water above it looked fit for drinking. So he collected some water in a pot and brought it to the Wise Man.

The Wise Man looked at the water and then he looked up at the disciple and said:
 
"See what you did to make the water clean. You waited long and the mud settled down on its own and you got clear water. Your mind is also like that! When it is disturbed, just let it be. Give it a little time. It will settle down on its own. You don't have to put in any effort to calm it down. It will happen. It is effortless".
♥ Moral ♥ : Similarly, when you are angry, give some extra time. You can calm down inside. This means not just controlling your outward behaviour, but also controlling your internal responses, taking steps to lower your heart rate, calm yourself down, and let the feelings subside.
 
 It has been narrated by Abu Huraira (May Allah be pleased with him) That Allah's Messenger Muhammad (s.a.w.) Said:
“ The strong is not the one who over comes the people by his strength”
"But the strong is the one who controls him while in anger."

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL STORY, SUBHAN'ALLAH:

This story wasn't written by me, n it didn't happen to someone i would know. I've found it on a facebook side and it made me cry, despite the fact, that i don't know, if it really happened, or if it is like one of those beautiful stories from old sufi masters, to increase the emaan of people. Deep in my heart i hope it really happened, even if it reminds me the story of imam Ahmed and the baker.
"Dr. Saeed, a well-known doctor, was once on his way to an important medical conference in another city in which he was going to be granted an award for medical research he had recently done. He could barely contain his excitement on his way to the airport and couldn’t wait until he arrived at the conference. He had worked long and hard on his research and felt his efforts deserved the award he was about to obtain. However, an hour after the plane took off, the pilot announced that there was a problem with the plane and that they were going to make an emergency landing at the nearest airport.

Afraid that he wouldn’t make it in time for the conference, the doctor ran to the information desk as soon as the plane landed and explained to the woman at the desk that he was expected to be at a very important conference and that he needed to find another way to get to his destination. She told him that there was nothing she could do to help him as there wouldn’t be another flight to his destination for another sixteen hours; but suggested he rent a car and drive down to the city as it was only three hours away. Having no other choice, the doctor agreed to the idea despite his hatred for driving long distances.

The doctor rented a car and started his journey. However, soon after he left, the weather suddenly changed and a heavy storm began. The pouring rain made it very difficult for him to see and he missed a turn he was supposed to take. After two hours of driving, he was convinced he was lost. Driving in the heavy rain on a deserted road, feeling hungry and tired, he frantically began to look for any sign of civilization. After some time, he finally came across a dark tiny cottage. Desperate, he got out of the car and knocked on the door.

A small elderly woman opened the door for him. He explained his situation and asked if he could use her telephone. She told him that she didn’t have a phone or electricity but that he was welcome to come in for some food and something warm to drink as he had completely lost his way and that it would take him some time to get back on the right road. Hungry, wet and exhausted, the doctor accepted her kind offer and walked in. The woman told him to help himself to some food and hot tea on the table and then excused herself to finish her prayers.

Sitting on the table sipping his tea, the doctor watched the woman in the dim light of the candles as she prayed next to what appeared to be a small baby crib. Every time she finished a prayer, she would start another one, and she seemed to be engrossed in making du`a’ while in sujood (prostration). Every now and then she would rock the crib gently.

Feeling that the woman might be in need of help, the doctor seized the opportunity to speak as soon as she finished one of her prayers and told her that he hoped Allah (swt) would answer her du`a’s. He then said that he noticed that she had been making a lot of du`a’ and asked if there was something she needed that he could get for her or help her with. The woman smiled and said that Allah (swt) had answered all her prayers except for one. She said she didn’t know why Allah (swt) hadn’t answered this specific prayer yet but perhaps it was because of her weak iman (faith).

The doctor asked if she didn’t mind telling him what she was making the du`a’ for. Nodding her head in approval, she said that the child in the crib was her grandson and that both his parents had recently died in a car accident. She said that the child had a very rare type of cancer and that all the doctors she had seen were unable to treat him. She also said that she had been told that there was a doctor who specialized in the type of cancer her grandson had, but there was no way for her to get to this doctor as he lived very far from her; so she has been spending her days and nights praying and making du`a’ that Allah (swt) helps her find a way to get to Dr. Saeed—the doctor who could treat her grandson.

Upon hearing her words, tears began to flow down the doctor’s cheeks and he said: ‘Subhan’Allah (glory be to God), there was a malfunction in the plane, a thunderstorm hit, and I lost my way; and all of this happened because Allah (swt) did not just answer your prayer by helping you find a way to get to Dr. Saeed, but he brought Dr. Saeed to your house. I am Dr. Saeed.’

With tears streaming down her cheeks, the woman raised her hands in du`a’ and said: ‘Oh Allah, how great and merciful You are!’"

WHY SHOULD I MARRY YOU?

Once there was a very handsome, pious, well educated young man, whose parents emphasised for him to get married. They had seen so many marriage proposals, and he had turned them all down. The parents thought it was becoming a little ridiculous or suspected that he may have someone else in mind. However every time the parents left the girls house, the young man would always say she's not the one! The young man only wanted a girl who was religious and practising, however one evening his mother arranged for him, to meet a girl, who was religious, and practising. On that evening, the young man, and girl, were left to talk, and ask each other questions. (As one would expect).

The young man, being a gentleman that he was allowed, the lady to ask first.
The young girl asked the young man so many questions, she asked about his life, his education, his friends, his family, his habits, his hobbies, his lifestyle, his enjoyment, his pastime, his experiences, his shoe size, etc.

The young man replied to all of her questions, without tiring, and politely, with a smile the young girl took up nearly all of the time, over an hour, and felt bad, and asked the young man do you have any questions?
The young man said, it's ok. I only have 3 questions.

The young girl thought, Wow, ONLY 3 questions okay, shoot
The young man's 1st question was,
Q1: Who do you love the most in the world, someone who's love nothing would ever overcome?
A1: She said, this is an easy question; my mother, he smiled
 

 Q2: 2nd question, he asked, you said that you read a lot of Qur'an, could you tell me which surahs you know the meaning of?
A2: Hearing this she went red and embarrassed and said, I do not know the meaning of any yet, but I am hoping to soon insha'allah I've just been a bit busy.
 

 Q3: The 3rd question the young man asked was, I have been approached for my hand in marriage, by girls that are a lot more prettier than you Why should I marry you?
A3: Hearing this the young girl was outraged, she stormed off to her parents with fury, and said I do not want to marry this man he is insulting my beauty, and intelligence. 


The young man and his parents, were once again, left without an agreement of marriage. This time his parents were really angry. What did you do to anger that girl, the family were so nice, and pleasant, and they were religious like you wanted??? What did you ask the girl?? Tell us!
 

 1. The young man said, firstly I asked her, who do you love the most? she said, her mother, The parents said so, what is wrong with that? The young man said,'no one, is Muslim, until he loves Allah, and his messenger (saw) more than anyone else in the world'. If a woman loves Allah and the Prophet (pbuh) more than anyone, she will love me and respect me, and stay faithful to me, because of that love, and fear for Allah (swt). and we can share this love, because this love is greater than lust for beauty.
 

 2. The young man said, then I asked, you read a lot of Qur'an, can you tell me the meaning of any surah? And she said no, because I haven't had time yet. so I thought of that hadith:  'ALL humans, are dead except for those who have knowledge'. She has lived 20 years and not found ANY time, to seek knowledge,why would I marry a woman, who does not know her rights, and responsibilities, and what will she teach my children, except how to be negligent, because the woman IS the madrasa (school) and the best of teachers. And a woman who has no time for Allah, will not have time for her husband.
 

 3. The third question I asked her was, that a lot of girls, more prettier than her, had approached me for marriage, why should I choose you? That is why she stormed off, getting angry. 

The young man's parents said: That's a horrible thing to say, why would you do such a thing, we are going back there to apologies.
The young man answered: I said this on purpose, to test whether she could control her anger. The Prophet (saw) said 'do not get angry, do not get angry, do not get angry' when asked how to become pious; because anger is from Satan. If a woman cannot control her anger with a stranger she has just met, do you think she will be able to control it with her husband??

So, the moral of this story is: One should look for a person who
1) Has love for Allah (swt) and the messenger (saw)
2) Has knowledge of the deen, and can act upon it.
3) can control their anger
4) and willing to compromise.

And it goes both ways, so women seeking a husband, should look for the same qualities.


Aisha'h r.a reports "one day I was on a camel which was somewhat difficult to control and the Prophet s.a.w remarked "you must be compassionate, whenever there is compassion in something it adorns it, and when it is removed from something it disgraces it".

HIJAB FOR WOMEN IN ISLAM, CHRISTANITY AND HINDUISM

Hijab for women in islam
HIJAB FOR WOMEN IN ISLAM:

It mentions in Surah Noor:

"And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband's fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers or their brothers' sons, or their sisters' sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex; and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss."
 [Al-Qur’an 24:31]

Six criteria for Hijab
According to Qur’an and Sunnah there are basically six criteria for observing hijab:

1. Extent:
The first criterion is the extent of the body that should be covered. This is different for men and women. The extent of covering obligatory on the men to cover the body at least from the navel to the knees. For women, the extent of covering obligatory is to cover the complete body except the face and the hands upto the wrist. If they wish to, they can cover even these parts of the body. Some scholars of Islam insist that the face and the hands are part of the obligatory extent of ‘hijab’.

All the remaining five criteria are the same for men and women:

2. The clothes worn should be loose and should not reveal the figure.

3. The clothes worn should not be transparent such that one can see through them.

4. The clothes worn should not be so glamorous as to attract the opposite sex.

5. The clothes worn should not resemble that of the opposite sex.

6. The clothes worn should not resemble that of the unbelievers i.e. they should not wear clothes that are specifically identities or symbols of the unbelievers’ religions.

“O Prophet! Tell thy wives and daughters, and the believing women
that they should cast their outer garments (the word "jalabeeb" -plural of jilbab- used in original arabic text) over their persons (when abroad); that is most convenient, that they should be known (as such) and not molested. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.”
[Al-Qur’an 33:59]

The Qur’an says that Hijab has been prescribed for the women so that they are recognized as modest women and this will also prevent them from being molested. The terms used in Quoran as describtion of modest clothing are "jalabib", the plural form of jilbab, (in some arabic countries also called abaya), often translated as "outer garment", to cover the body, and "khumour", the plural form of khimar, a big scarf used to cover the hair n the "bossom" (breast part) of women.

 

Hijab for women in christianity
HIJAB FOR WOMEN IN CHRISTIANITY :

“A women shall not wear anything that pertains to a man, not shall a man put on a woman’s garment, or all who do so are an abomination to the Lord your God”
[In the Book of Deuteronomy Ch 22 Verse 5]

“In like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing”
“But, which is proper for women professing godliness, with good works.
[I Timothy Ch 2 Verse 9-10]

“But every women who pray or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonores her head, for
That it one and the same as if her head were shaved”
For if a woman is not covered (head), let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved , let her be covered.”
[I Corinthians Ch 11 Verse 5-6]

Stricter then Islam , in Christianity if women don’t cover their head,the punishment is to shave their head.

“You have heard that it was said to those of old not commit adultery, but I say unto you, any one look at women after lust, he already committed adultery in his heart”
[Matthew Ch 5 Verse 27-28] 









  HIJAB FOR WOMEN IN HINDUISM:

God made you women, so that you shall lower your gaze, do not look at men, keep your Feet close, cover you hair and should not disclose the garment, which should conceal with the veil”
[Rig Veda Book 8 Hymn 33 Mantra 19-20]

“ It’s not good, that man covering this thigh with female garment”
[Rig Veda Book 10 Hymn 85 Mantra 30]


When Ram saw the Parushu Ram coming, he tell to Seta.
“ O Seta keep yourselves in the veil and lower you gaze”
[Maha veera Chritra Act 2 page on 71]

The elderly muslim lady and the atheist

An elderly lady was well-known for her Iman and for her confidence in talking about it. She would stand in front of her house and say Alhamdulilah "Allah be praised" to all those who passed by. Next door to her lived an atheist who would get so angry at her proclamations he would shout, "There ain't no Lord!!" Hard times came upon the elderly lady, and she prayed for Allah to send her some assistance. She would pray out loud in her night prayer" Oh Allah! I need food!! I am having a hard time, please Lord, PLEASE LORD, SEND ME SOME GROCERIES!!" The atheist happened to hear her as she was praying, and decided to play a prank on her. The next morning the lady went out on her porch and noted a large bag of groceries and shouted, "Alhamdulilah, Allah be praised!." The neighbor jumped from behind a bush and said, "Aha! I told you there was no Lord. I bought those groceries, God didn't." The lady started jumping up and down and clapping her hands and said, "ALHAMDULILAH WA SHUKRILLAH”. He not only sent me groceries, but he made the devil pay for them!"

The walnut tree and the pumpkin

One hot day, Mulla Nasruddin was taking it easy in the shade of a walnut tree. After a time, he started eyeing speculatively, the huge pumpkins growing on vines and the small walnuts growing on a majestic tree.

"Sometimes I just can't understand the ways of God!" He mused. "Just fancy letting tiny walnuts grow on so majestic a tree and huge pumpkins on the delicate vines!"

Just then a walnut snapped off and fell smack on Mulla Nasruddin's bald head. He got up at once and lifting up his hands and face to heavens in supplication, said:

"Oh, my God! Forgive my questioning your ways! You are all-wise. Where would I have been now, if pumpkins grew on trees!"

Why i wear hijab and not niqab?

This article is not meant to serve as a fatwa (legal opinion) as I am not qualified to issue fatwas. I also need to make it clear that I don't follow a madhab (Islamic school of thought) and I respect the four imams just as much as I respect the scholars of today. I don't blindly follow the scholars, I follow the Quran and Sunnah that they follow. Whatever I have written that is true is from Allah alone while anything that is false is from myself and shaytan. May Allah forgive me and have mercy on me, Ameen ya rabb.... 
To avoid misunderstandings: I support niqaab.  I just don't view it as obligatory. I know a lot of niqaabis who are very dear sisters to me so please don't think I am against niqaabis. I also wish for all sisters who wants to wear it as extraprotection or out of conviction, that may Allah give them all the possibility to wear it without any haressments.... Sad enough, that many niqabi sisters are facing difficulties nowadays, such as those sisters in France and Belgium... and in a few other european countries too. I also know a lot of non-hijabis (muslim women who don't wear any head covering) who I am close to. They are striving to cover and may Allah (swt) increase their iman and give them strength to overcome their personal struggle ameen.
A Muslimah who wears hijab is not better than one who wears niqaab and vice versa. Nobody is better than the next except in taqwah (piety, fear of Allah) Allah Most High does not care about our wealth, our beauty or lack of it, etc. What He cares about is what is in the heart such as niyyah (intention) and the deeds. In Saheeh Muslim it is reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Allaah does not look at your outward appearance and your wealth, rather He looks at your hearts and deeds.” (Hadith No. 4651) 
 Every Muslim woman will be judged on the Yawm Al-Qiyama (Day of Judgement) concerning what they understood about the command of veiling. So let us leave the judgment to Allah Most High, who is the best of judges. I am attempting to explain why I choose to cover everything except my face and hands using authentic daleel (proof, evidence) insha'Allah...

THE KING & HIS FRIEND

A story is told about a king in Africa who had a close friend that he grew up with. The friend had a habit of looking at every situation that ever occurred in his life (positive or negative) by remarking, “This is good, Almighty knows best”

One day the king and his friend were out on a hunting expedition. The friend would load and prepare the guns for the king. The friend had apparently done something wrong in preparing one of the guns, for after taking one of the guns from his friend, the king fired it and his thumb was blown off.

Examining the situation the friend remarked as usual, “This is good! Almighty knows best”

To which the king replied, “No, this is not good”” and ordered his soldiers to put his friend in jail.

About a year later, the king was hunting in an area that he should have known to stay clear of. Cannibals captured the king and took him to their village. They tied his hands, stacked some wood, set up a stake and bound him to the stake.

As they came near to the set fire to the wood, they noticed that the king was missing a thumb. Being superstitious, they never ate anyone who was less than whole. So after untying the king, they chased him out of the village.

When the king reached his palace, he was reminded of the event that had taken his thumb and felt remorse for his treatment of his friend. He went immediately to the jail to speak with his friend.

“You were right” the king said, “It was good that my thumb was blown off.” And he proceeded to tell his friend all that just happened. “I am very sorry for sending you in jail for so long. It was bad for me to do this.”

“No,” his friend replied, “This is good ... Almighty Knows Best”

“What do you mean, ‘this is good’! How could it be good that I sent my friend to jail for a year?”

The king’s friend replied: “Remember that the Almighty Knows best and if I had NOT been in jail, I would have been with you on your hunting trip).”

IT COULD BE THAT YOU DISLIKE SOMETHING, WHEN IT IS GOOD FOR YOU; AND IT COULD BE THAT YOU LIKE SOMETHING WHEN IT IS BAD FOR YOU. ALLAH KNOWS AND YOU DO NOT KNOW [2:16]

SoubhanAllah.....


This is a story of a young woman who had accepted Islam and fell sick shortly thereafter and was hospitalized. Her new Muslim companions would gather at her bedside reciting Qu’ran and keeping her company.
One day one of the Muslims was reciting Qur’an and the woman started to turn her head back and forth in apparent agitation. Concerned, the Muslims asked what was wrong.The sick woman responded by saying that it was hard to concentrate because she didn’t know whom to listen to.

“What do you mean?” the Muslims asked her.

Agitated, she said to the one reciting Qur’an, “Should I listen to you and should I listen to them?” The reciter turned and didn’t see anyone. “I’m the only one reciting,” he said.

The woman, who did not know Arabic, responded saying, “I hear someone else saying, 


‘Yaa ayyu han-nafsul mut-ma-innah. ‘Irji’ee ilaa rabbiki raaDiyya-tam marDiyyah. Fad-khulee fee ‘ebaadee, wad-khulee jannatee.”




O reassured soul, Return to your Lord, well-pleased and pleasing [to Him],
And enter among My [righteous]servants, And enter My Paradise

(Al-Fajr, 89:27-30).

A moment later, she died… Innalillahi wainna ilahi raajioon

SubhanALLAH

Disbelief after Belief

Hudhayfah ibn al-Yamaan (radi Allahu anhu) said: “The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said, ‘What I fear the most for you is a man who reads the Quran until its beauty appears on his face and his cloak is Islam; he continues in this manner until Allah wills that he should shed that cloak and cast it behind him. Then he goes to his neighbour wielding a sword and accuses him of shirk.’ I said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, which of them is more deserving of being put to the sword, the accuser or the accused?’ He said, ‘The accuser.’” [Abu Yala; Tafseer Ibn Katheer]

Although a person may have adopted the demeanour of piety, Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) knows what motivations and feelings are inside a person. He (subhana wa ta’ala) tests people so that the good and the bad are sorted out, in the same way that flour is sifted to separate it from impurities.

When these tests come, people shed aside pretences and act according to what is in their hearts. Shaitaan had made a great show of his piety but when told to bow before Adam (alaihis salam), the arrogance he had kept concealed revealed itself and he refused to accept Allah’s orders. His show of obedience and worship evaporated into thin air and he began arguing with Allah (subhana wa ta’ala).

He who does not genuinely love other Muslims and does not sincerely want them to go to Jannah will be quick in drawing the sword on them. This hadith mentions that he will use the excuse of their committing shirk. This was how the Khawaarij conducted themselves.

People in every age and clime will be tested by Allah (subhana wa ta’ala) to sort the dwellers of Jannah from the dwellers of Jahannum. O Allah! Please don’t allow us to fail in this test.

Ameen.

Beautiful advice from a mother to her daughter on the day of her nikah

Beautiful advice from a mother to her daughter on the day of her Nikaah

Jamharah Khutah al-‘Arab, 1/145

‘Abd al-Malik (RA) said: “When ‘Awf ibn Muhallim al-Shaybani, one of the most highly respected leaders of the Arab nobility during the jahiliyyah, married his daughter Umm Iyas to al-Harith ibn ‘Amr al-Kindi, she was made ready to be taken to the groom, then her mother, Umamah came into her, to advise her and said:

‘O my daughter, if it were deemed unnecessary to give you this advice because of good manners and noble descent, then it would have been unnecessary for you, because you posses these qualities, but it will serve as a reminder to those who are forgetful, and will help those who are wise.

‘O my daughter, if a woman were able to do without a husband by virtue of her father’s wealth and her need for her father, then you of all people would be most able to do without a husband, but women were created for men just as men were created for them.

‘O my daughter, you are about to leave the home in which you grew up, where you first learned to walk, to go to a place you do not know, to a companion to whom you are unfamiliar. By marrying you, he has become a master over you, so be like a servant to him, and he will become like a servant to you.

‘Take from me ten qualities, which will be a provision and a reminder for you.

‘The first and second of them are: be content in his company, and listen to and obey him, for contentment brings peace of mind, and listening to and obeying one’s husband pleases Allah.

‘The third and fourth of them are: make sure that you smell good and look good; he should not see anything ugly in you, and he should not smell anything but a pleasant smell from you. Kohl is the best kind of beautification to be found, and water is better than the rarest perfume.

‘The fifth and sixth of them are: prepare his food on time, and keep quiet when he is asleep, for raging hunger is like a burning flame, and disturbing his sleep will make him angry.

‘The seventh and eight of them are: take care of his servants (or employees) and children, and take care of his wealth, for taking care of his wealth shows that you appreciate him, and taking care of his children and servants shows good management.

‘The ninth and tenth of them are: never disclose any of his secrets, and never disobey any of his orders, for if you disclose any of his secrets you will never feel safe from his possible betrayal, and if you disobey him, his heart will be filled with hatred towards you.

‘Be careful, O my daughter, of showing joy in front of him when he is upset, and do not show sorrow in front of him when he is happy, because the former shows a lack of judgment whilst the latter will make him unhappy.

‘Show him as much honour and respect as you can, and agree with him as much as you can, so that he will enjoy your companionship and conversation.

‘Know, O my daughter, that you will not achieve what you would like to until you put his pleasure before your own, and his wishes before yours, in whatever you like and dislike. And may Allah choose what is best for you and protect you.”
