We all love our friendships and relationships. We work on them daily because we believe they make us happy, whole and complete. And we believe they give the best advice! But there's one relationship we ignore on a daily and we need to work on daily because it gives us the best advice daily. This relationship if with a special Book. Allah is talking to us and advising us. Yet we fail to take its advice. Ask yourself; 'Have I opened this Book today and read the Qur'an and what is my relationship with the Qur'an?' Its not too late - yet. Close facebook and go open the Qur'an Book and immerse yourself in the words of Allah.

'[Jesus] said, "Indeed, I am the servant of God. He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet. And He has made me blessed wherever I am and has enjoined upon me prayer and zakah [charity] as long as I remain alive. And [made me] dutiful to my mother (Mary), and He has not made me a wretched tyrant. And peace is on me the day I was born and the day I will die and the day I am raised alive!" {19:30-34}
...Its not only about a positive mindset and positive affirmations daily. Its also about the people we have in our lives, the things we read, the activities we get involved in and the actions we take. It all works together. There's no magic pill or formula. Its hard work, patience, persistence - and most of all - faith in God. Are we doing it for His sake alone or for people. Yes, its difficult because we live in this world and are among other beings - but that's where reminders come into it and the support systems we create. Ask yourself; 'what support system have I created for myself?' And if you don't then ask; 'what are three things I can do right now to create the right support system for me?' And then go put your answers into practice insha'Allah.
He who has no one has Allah and He who has Allah has everything! Go out there today and give it your best - in everything - deen and duniya - worship and worldly affairs (work/study/biz) and have a blessed Friday. Remember, you're already a multi-billionaire - if you have Allah! Do good, be good and have good! :) ♥
...There is only ONE God - creator of the Heavens, Earth and all Creation. Creator of you and me. If you're a human then God created you. The same God who created me. There's no logic behind giving a human being a status of God because if we are human then we would all want to be God. Let's not elevate anyone to the status of God whether Prophets or Scholars. Some humans are chosen to perform miracles only by God's Will. But they are not God. So God is not human. God is beyond our imagination. God is Light. Moses wanted to see God. He was a chosen Prophet. He was better than you and me. And what happened? God told him to look at the mountain, if it stays in its place then Moses would be able to see God. But as soon as God revealed Himself to the mountain it turned to ashes and Moses lost consciousness. Even the mountain couldn't handle the shear Magnificence of God. God is not human. We are all searching for spirituality and meaning of life. All are in search of the One. God. And God has One message for us all. Worship Him only. Reflect. ♥
We say that we have issues in our life and that our hearts are broken and our souls are torn. We look here and there for wise words, inspiration, motivation and therapies. But what we forget is that each of us has a priceless Book in our houses - wherein lies the healing for our hearts and souls. Dedicate your lives to the Qur'an and in turn Allah (Swt) will grant your hearts and souls peace and serenity. Don't listen to me, go open the Qur'an and listen to Allah - because to Him we belong and to Him is our return.
And the Messenger has said, "O my Lord, indeed my people have taken this Qur'an as [a thing] abandoned." {25:30} ♥ ...One of the many blessings God has bestowed upon us is speech. Yet many of us are not eloquent in our speech. We need to turn back to the Seerah and biographies of our pious predecessors to learn eloquence from them. There is much power in speech. Actors, politicians, leaders invest in this areas so they can influence change. What are we doing to influence change? We need to develop eloquent, powerful and an influential persona insha'Allah. Remember, the Ummah of Rasool-Allah is strictly 150% of the best! We need to live up to it!
...Start the day in His name and end the day with His name. Because He is the source of all our health, wealth, imaan and goodness. To Him we belong and to Him we return. And He loves YOU because He created YOU. So give thanks to Him daily and be quick to worship Him the way He has asked us to worship Him :) ♥
If we work on our worship then God will make our path easy. That doesn't mean we won't go through tests and trials. We will go through more. The more God loves us the more He will test us so the more we can get closer to Him. What challenges do you face in your worship or spirituality daily? What would you like WBI to help you with? I'm a spiritual and creative mentor/coach. Not only do I work on biz marketing or creative ideas/goal setting - but also coach and mentor you through your worship and spirituality challenges. I'm here for YOU. Let me know how I can help insha'Allah. Remember, I'm also learning daily - but together we'll make it through the gate insha'Allah :)
...Arrogance breeds arrogance! Remember, the devil was thrown out of heaven for his arrogance. Humble beginnings lead to great successes. Never forget those who helped you on the way. They were gifts from God and if God can gift you then He can withhold it from you. There may come a time where those same people who helped you need your help. If they turn to you then know that God chose you to be their gift. Don't throw away your rewards by shutting the door in their face. They will become someone else's gift and you will have passed on all your rewards. You don't want the door to be closed on your face on the Last Day. Hurry to be that gift God chose you to be. ♥
