Today, in shā’a Llāh, we are setting out on a journey to Central Asia. With Allāh’s ﷻ wisdom, He ﷻ made it the land from which guidance and light spread into the whole world. Our intention is solely to seek the pleasure of Allāh ﷻ.
As our Prophet ﷺ said, this command turned his ﷺ beard gray. Istiqāmah is a heavy command but Allāh ﷻ helps those who remain steadfast. You must adhere to the command; for once one has strayed from the way, it becomes difficult to return to it.
Islām’s beauty lies in every second of a person’s life. Allāh ﷻ has given us a 24-hour guide for our lives. Just as the military service, not one second is for you to be free. How will our lives become fulfilled?
Allāh ﷻ has given our Prophet ﷺ the best adab. All Prophets are also free of error. Mawlānā tells the story of Sūrat Abasa showing how such incidents are only to teach us lesson.
Nowadays there are many scholars but no knowledge; this is what our Prophet ﷺ said of the end of times. Saying “I don’t know,” is a great virtue that frees you from a heavy burden you don’t see.
Allāh ﷻ doesn’t burden a person more than what he can carry, so why burden yourself? The fard is clear; other than that, you must take your time to think. What’s taken by making someone feel ashamed is ḥarām.
Our Prophet ﷺ teaches adab the most. Following his ﷺ Sunnah lights the way of a person and makes his ﷺ life full of happiness. Those who honor him ﷺ and recite Mawlid are on the way Allāh ﷻ wants.
Allāh ﷻ sent prophets to every nation to show people the way of guidance and teach them who their Creator ﷻ is. Human beings are quick to forget and change, following their ego and shayṭān. Many have tried to change the way or make a new religion. But the Prophet’s ﷺ way remains strong and unchanged. It continues forever, in shā’a Llāh.
