The scholars are the heirs of the Prophets

The scholars are the heirs of the Prophets. 
They inherit the practices of the Prophets and transmit them to the following generation. 

The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) interprets and demonstrates the Quran. Rely on the practices which he has transmitted, feel the magrifah, follow his practices. He came as a mercy for all the creations and he shows compassion and preserves the values of true humanity.

Abu al-Darda’ (Allah be pleased with him) said the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him and give him peace) said, “Scholars are the inheritors of the prophets.” [Related by Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, Nasa’i, Ibn Maja, Ahmad, Ibn Hibban, and others]

The lovers of God never lose hope in His mercy

 As humans we are weak and in need of help and when we turn to God, His help comes in many unexpected ways. It's amazingly true, God’s help comes in many beautiful surprising ways as He always helps us if we seek Him. He provides us and nurtures us, He feeds us and gives us to drink, He guards us and protects us, He preserves and defends us, He grants us success and guidance, He enriches us, shelters us and befriends us. His help also comes through beautiful hearts that inspire, beautiful souls that aspire and beautiful minds that empower.

The beauty of the sun's rays

Bosphorus, Istanbul, Turkey

The beauty of the sun’s rays is seen on the bubbles floating on the surface of running water, they are the lights of an eternal beauty (Risale i Nur, The Rays)

Wish is a Strong Hope

"Nurture a strong hope of God's Mercy; hope may induce striving and work and a person will not despair of Divine Mercy" Bediuzzaman Said Nursi.

Wish is a strong hope that keeps us  focused, and if we put strong hope in God’s Divine Mercy, we will attain an extraordinary strength that keeps us moving to reach our aims and we will be successful when we keep trusting in God’s immense power, His unconditional love, His infinite mercy and His endless compassion for each of His creations.

True dawn

True dawn…………
Rumi: Look at the night and see the dawn.
Nursi: Every winter is followed by spring; every night has its dawn.
Kahlil Gibran: Wake at dawn with a winged heart; give thanks for another day of loving.
Nursi: Only true dawn brings true happiness only found in belief and knowledge of God.
Me: So, see the true dawn by intensely holding on to God and letting go all that distracts......

Each day is a gift

Each new day is a door to a new world

(The Words, p. 280)

Each new day is a beautiful gift from God; let us learn to accept the gift; let us open it with great joy and with deep appreciation, trusting that the door of each new day opens for us to keep on learning; believing that only the Giver of life can teach us the true meaning of life.

Love needs no words

One of the hardest part of being strong independent striving mums is no one ask us if we are ok, but the most sweetest part is we always love our children intensely as we feel being loved deeply by them; this love is an unexplained reflection of God’s unconditional love, this love is an irreplaceable love; this love is more than just a feeling as it is strength; this love is a miracle that dwells in the invisible as it is love till eternity that needs no words..

Mesmerizing sunset hours

“The Quran is the sun that never sets; it’s a special mercy, a true guide; a healer; the source of nourishment and strength”-Risale i Nur
Seeking serenity; learning to be compassionately strong and courageously resilient. Truly our Lord is with us, He will guide us through.

You have escaped the cage

'You have escaped the cage;
your wings are stretched out;
now fly; sing like the birds sing,
not worrying about who hears or what others think'-Rumi
Truly my Lord is with me, He will guide me through (Q26:62).

Drawing insightful lessons of life

Drawing insightful lessons of life from the Quran in the Risale i Nur as we saw how the fig and olive survived on snowy grounds during our winter season outings in Jordan....
Almighty God reveals numerous mysteries and significant points through oaths in the Quran and one of the amazing oaths is “By the fig and the olive,”(95:1) which is as follows: By swearing by the fig and the olive, Almighty God calls to mind the immensity of His power and the perfection of His mercy and His extensive bounties, in order to redirect those people who are heading for the lowest of the low, showing that they may progress spiritually, through thanks, reflection, belief, and good works as far as the highest of the high. The reason for specifying the fig and the olive is that as fruits they are most blessed and beneficial, and their creation comprises many notable things and bounties. For the olive is utilized for illumination and food, and is a basic commodity in social and commercial life. The fig is the same; it displays in its creation a miracle of power by encapsulating in its minuscule seed all the members of the huge fig-tree, and is a divine bounty both in its being a food, and its uses, and contrary to other fruits its continuity, and many other advantages. It calls all this to mind with the oath and instructs man to draw lessons from them so as to believe and perform good works, and not to fall to the lowest of the low (The Letters, p. 449).

Essence of mercy

“We should try to always see the trace, face and essence of mercy in things which will cause us not to complain, but to offer thanks” (The Flashes, p. 357).
Autumn age is not a barrier to shine on for God in this world; in eternity His beloved ones who receive the pleasures from the bounties in paradise will remain young forever……

watch with serenity

“Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding. Even as the stone of the fruit must break, that its heart may stand in the sun, so must you know pain; and could you keep your heart in wonder at the daily miracles of your life, your pain would not seem less wondrous than your joy; and you would accept the seasons of your heart, even as you have always accepted the seasons that pass over your fields; and you would watch with serenity through the winters of your grief”- Kahlil Gibran — in Sør-Trøndelag.

 

"Do not despair of God's mercy" (Q39:53).

Being a mother, a student, a writer, an educator and an entrepreneur are truly challenging but rewarding experiences for me and I am still learning. All we need is to take great courage to let go the past that hurts while nurturing great hope to face the present that heals. "Do not despair of God's mercy" (Q39:53).
