surely, the muslim men and the muslim women, the believing men and the believing women, the devout men and the devout women, the truthful men and the truthful women, the patient men and the patient women, the humble men and the humble women, the charitable men and charitable women, the fasting men and the fasting women, the men who guard their chastity and the women who gaurd their chastity, the men who remember allah much and the women who remember allah much- for all of them, allah has prepared forgiveness and a great reward. it is not fitting for a believing man or a believing woman to have an option in their open affairs when a matter has been decided by allah and his rasool and whoever disobeys allah and his rasool has indeed strayed into a clearly wrong path_ surah ahzab 33:35-36
this verse completely floored me. i went back to it to understand the meaning again. allah gives us countless chances, options almost everyday to rectify our mistakes. he invites by calling us words like truthful, patient,devout to attract us. what happens when you hear someone praising you by calling you a truthful person or a humble person. it feels good doesnt it? well thats allah calling us that, the one who is highest in these attributes is calling us these names. can we now reject his verses, can we now ignore his power his greatness and man if we do we are in for it! hahahhah.
i recently got engaged and am just in love with my fiance. and after reading this verse about believing men and women makes me think a lot about our future. i have a vision for us which i hope inshallah allah fulfils one day. i pray for piety. i pray for the highest level of piety for both of us. i ask god for forgivenes for both of us. i ask him for us to be contended with whatever we will get. i ask for peace and happiness. i also ask for pure love and companionship not only for us but for all couples that are about to be wed or already are. i pray for a salah offspring. one that would make us proud. one that would become sadqa-e-jarian. one that would elevate our status in heaven. one that would love us because of allah. i pray for each day to be a successful day. a day without sin and regret. i pray for each day to be a day of jihad. a jihad of nafs and body. a day full of sacrifice for others. a day where we think less of eachother and more of others. i pray for a long or short but a healthy life. a life without illnesses and grief and if they are to come then give us strengh to deal with them.
