Asalamu alaykum wa rahmah tullahi wa barakatuh!

May the peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you!

This week (and every week from now until further notice)  we are having the halaqah from Asr to Magrib. Salat ul Asr at Baitul Aman is now at 5:30 PM. If you are coming in late, we now meet in the second floor. Feel free to join us. You know you want to. 

Hadith of the Week

The Messenger of Allah (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “When the believing worshiper is buried, the grave says to him, ‘Welcome, make yourself comfortable. Indeed, to me, you are the most beloved of those who walked upon me. Since you have been entrusted to me and delivered to me today, you shall see what I have arranged for you.’ It will then widen for him to the extent that his sight extends, and the door to Jannah is opened for him.” [Tirmidhi]

Commentary

One day I will enter my grave. What will I feel then? Will my grave welcome me, widen for me till the limit of my sight? Will I feel comfortable in it and secure? Will a door to Jannah be opened from it so that I might see my place in Jannah from my grave, enjoy its sight and spend my time in my grave in happy anticipation?

I hope so. I hope that I do such deeds that I become beloved to Allah (subhana wa ta’ala). Then I will become beloved to all the angels, all the animals, birds, fish, and plants. I will also become beloved to the earth that I walk upon. Then when I enter my grave it will be happy to see me and I will be happy to see it.
