wa Alaikumu salaam wa rahmatuAllahi wa barakaatuh,

JazaakAllahukhair for the reminders in the audios. I have personally witnessed this power in my life and the lives of some around me. It makes sense both in the mind and in the heart subhaanAllah. You can literally feel and see Allah doing amazing things for you in front of your face that only He knows what was offered to Him from you.

This reminds of one of the sons of Adam whose offer of sacrifice was accepted by Allah, while his brothers was not. In the ayah (surah Maaidah : 27) it is so clear subhaanAllah the way the son of Adam whose offering wasn't accepted by Allah behaved the whole time. He was half hearted and disrespectful. The audacity in how he displayed his lack of care for even trying a little bit to please His Lord was so apparent.

۞ وَٱتْلُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَبَأَ ٱبْنَىْ آدَمَ بِٱلْحَقِّ إِذْ قَرَّبَا قُرْبَانًا فَتُقُبِّلَ مِنْ أَحَدِهِمَا وَلَمْ يُتَقَبَّلْ مِنَ الْآخَرِ قَالَ لَأَقْتُلَنَّكَ ۖ قَالَ إِنَّمَا يَتَقَبَّلُ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ

5:27

(And recite to them the story of Adam''s two sons, in truth, when they both offered a sacrifice [to Allah], and it was accepted from one of them but was not accepted from the other. Said [the latter], "I will surely kill you." Said [the former], "Indeed, Allah only accepts from the righteous [who fear Him].)

I might post this in my fb and ig also because your audio really triggered a deep reflection about what we offer to Allah for His pleasure subhaanAllah

Thank you for this episode ! The first part resonates with me so much. This is my story. I tried to change myself, my habits, my thoughts, and my actions but it didn’t work.

I would change for a few weeks, then I would go back to my old way or I would understand a concept but then take two steps back when something unexpected happened.

But when I started reading Surah al Baqarah, Allah changed my heart without me having to do something. 

For a long time, I really wanted to deeply connect with and accept Allah’s Rahma, love, compassion, and kindness, but I would always get doubts, questions, waswas and misunderstandings. However, by Allah’s Grace, He blessed me with a conviction in His love, care, and protection through Surah Al Baqarah.
