Help is near


 بسم اللہ

" Ah! Verily, the help of Allah is (always) near!"


Let us see, how close our Lord is to us and knows our nature so well!

These are indeed the Words of Allah which soothe us and make us understand how we should behave in prosperity and adversity.

Surah al Baqara juz 2 ayah 214

“Or do they think that they shall enter the garden of bliss without such trials as came to those who passed away before you?
They encountered suffering and adversity, and were so shaken in spirit that even the Messenger and those of faith who were with him cried: “when will come the help of Allah” Ah! Verily, the help of Allah is always near!"

Surah Ale Imran Juz 4 Ayah 139-140
"So lose not heart. Nor fall into despair: For ye must gain mastery if you are true in Faith."
"If a wound hath touched you, be sure a similar wound hath touched the others.
Such days of (varying fortunes) We give to men and men by turns: that Allah may know those that believe, and that He may take to Himself from your ranks Martyr-witnesses (to truth). And that Allah loveth not those who do wrong."

Surah Fussilat Juz 24 
Ayah 49
"Man does not weary of asking for good (things), but if ill touches him, he gives up all hope and is lost in despair."

Ayah 51
"When We bestow favors on man, he turns away, and gets himself remote on his side (instead of coming to Us); and when evil seizes him, (he comes) full of prolonged prayer!"

Surah Al Sharh Juz 30 Ayah 5-6
"So, verily, with every difficulty, there is relief:
Verily, with every difficulty there is relief."

Those of us who are worried, tense or sad for some reason or the other must read these words of Allah with understanding at least thrice; so that, Allah willing, our heart finds peace and we realize that our Lord is not unmindful of us; rather He is the Best Helper and the wanderer’s Guide.

O you who have believed...(Part-1)

    O you who have believed Let us have a look at all the signs in the Noble Quran where Allah, the Almighty addresses the Believers directly. It is important to know what Allah, the Almighty says to those who profess their belief and Faith in Him. As believers in the One True God, Allah, we must have a closer look at all the commands that have been given by our Merciful Lord addressing us directly: O you who have believed, seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, Allah is with the patient. 2:153 O you who have believed, eat from the good things which We have provided for you and be grateful to Allah if it is [indeed] Him that you worship. 2:172 O you who believe! Al-Qisas (the Law of ... in punishment) is prescribed for you in case of murder: 2:178 O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous -2:183 O you who have believed, enter into Islam completely [and perfectly] and do not follow the foot...

Hajj: In the Noble Qur'an

  Hajj is not merely a journey to Makkah — it is a journey into the heart of surrender. The Qur’an speaks about Hajj with a blend of history, law, spirituality, and symbolism. It ties the pilgrim to Prophet Ibrāhīm عليه السلام, to the Kaʿbah, and to the timeless call that still echoes across the world. Hajj embodies all the forms of worship like prayers, charity and sacrifice. The pilgrim is set on a journey that requires physical, spiritual and emotional strength. One must be equipped with the required knowledge about all the rituals of this great act of worship. Patience and good character during this journey and complete submission to the Will of Allah can guarantee an accepted Hajj, by the Will and Grace of Almighty Allah.  1. The Origin of Hajj: Ibrāhīm’s Call Surah Al‑Hajj 22:27 وَأَذِّن فِي النَّاسِ بِالْحَجِّ يَأْتُوكَ رِجَالًا وَعَلَىٰ كُلِّ ضَامِرٍ يَأْتِينَ مِن كُلِّ فَجٍّ عَمِيقٍ ‎ Allah commands Ibrāhīm عليه السلام to proclaim the pilgrimage: “Proclaim to th...

Why I wear Hijab.

The topic of Hijab has always been a controversial topic for many among those who are not Muslims and even among those who are Muslims.  When something is not understood clearly and is approached with a stance that is personal and emotional then it is indeed a matter of doubt and uncertainty. But, when you intend to understand something sincerely and try to find out its origin and meaning from the most authentic sources then there remains no doubt and hesitation and you tend to accept it readily with ease. The same goes for the topic of Hijab. Most of the people think that Hijab is a choice and not a command by Allah in the Noble Quran and they present various points to prove it.  I am just a student of Al Quran and I myself did not wear Hijab till I entered University. But one fine day, by the Will of Allah, I was reading the Chapter 24 The Light (An Noor) in the Quran. I came across the famous verses on Hijab and I felt something inside my heart. I realized that these are...
