It is related in the Traditions that Prophet Moses, God Bless his soul, said: “Show me an action with which, if I did it, You would be satisfied.”  God, Who is Glorious and Great answered, “You can not do that, O Moses.”  At that the Prophet fell prostrate, worshipping God and pleading with Him.  Then [...]

Urgent

 
Knowing, as many of us we do, we never get more than we can bear, knowing everything has a purpose, knowing screaming, yelling and crying won’t change things, knowing every action definitely has a consequence; many of us still go through life with blinders on.   We spend time and energy on trivial or spiritually harmful [...]

We need to remember to “love all” as Khwaja Sahib said and did.

Something To Share

I just heard a moving story I’d like to share with you. It took place during the time Prophet Moses (God be pleased with him) was wandering in the desert with his tribe and a lengthy drought came upon them.  The entire tribe raised their hands toward Heaven and prayed and pleaded for rain.  Can [...]

Tie Up Yor Camel

          There is an excellent message in the saying: “Tie up your camel then trust in God.”  I’ve been acting on that advice, have seen the Wisdom in it and wrote it in my book, “The Wealth of the Inheritors” which, God Willing, will be published next year.  My task now is to reference [...]

God is Enough

If you haven’t already established the habit of calling for God’s help first before you call on any other, I suggest you do it now.  He is The Most Dependable.  God is enough for a Protector.  God is enough for a Helper. God is The Healer. He is The Revealer of the reminder. He is [...]
