Life Of a Deen Student

(Source: guidedhearts)

Monday is one of my favourite days of the week, unlike most people ,I’m the happiest on a Monday morning. Mondays signal a new week, a new beginning   and it gives us the hope to continue pursuing our goals. Well ,anyways the reason for this post is because I would love to share with all my followers this piece of advise which I read this morning.  It is from the book  “Don’t Be Sad” , which is written by Dr Aaidh ibn Abdullah al- Qarni. ( By the way, if you have not read this book yet-  I advise you to  get a copy of it as soon as possible and read it. It has endless advice and it contains so much wisdom within it. It is one of my favourite books.)

“TITLE: THE PAST IS GONE FOREVER:

By brooding over the past and its tragedies, one exhibits a form of insanity – a kind of sickness that destroys resolve to live for the present moment. Those who have a firm purpose have filed away and forgotten occurrences of the past, which will never again see light, since they occupy a dark place in the recesses of the mind. Episodes of the past are finished with; sadness cannot retrieve them, melancholy cannot make things right, and depression will never bring the past back to life . This is because the past is non-existent.

Reading too much in the past is a waste of the present. When Allah mentioned the affairs of the previous nations,He, the Exalted ,said:

[ That was a nation who passed away.]    (Qur’an 2:134)

Former days are gone and done with, and you benefit nothing by carrying out an autopsy over them , by turning back the wheels of history.”

I hope this enlightens you too and helps you to divorce your past and live in the present. Islam is about moving-forward so go out there and do your best. May Allah make your week productive and I wish you everything of the best.

Salaam.
