While the world continues to progress technologically. I
swear by Allah, faster than its growth in technology it is retrogressing
morally and spiritually. While life seems to become easier
theoretically, in theory, when you analyze life today with communication
and modes of transport becoming so much easier, in theory life seems
easier than previous times but practically life has become more
challenging than the previous times.
Tension, depression and frustration
has By Allah become the order of the day. Happiness, Joy and prosperity
is something of the past. The very fears that haunt the minds of every
individual are ever lurking.. "I must never become poor, i must never be
diagnosed of cancer". The fears that are ever lurking in the heart and
in the mind of every man is sufficient depression in the life of every
person. The only way to avert financial depression is to convince
yourself is that Allah is the sustainer. In the midst of affluence there
is no joy, in the midst of comfort and luxury there is absolutely no
joy.
Muhammad PBUH Said: ... " Wealth in essence is the contentment of
the heart, the one who has contentment in his heart, the no amount of
calamities and tragedies will harm this man, will depress this man",
nothing in the world will depress this man. Money can buy a house but
not a home. Money can buy you bed but not sleep. The greatest
contributing factor to depression is Sin. As that young guy, who after
he takes a pill and he is on a buzz and on cloud 9 & you know he is
floating somewhere else, as soon as he becomes sober, he goes through
such depression that he's left with one of the 2 options, either he
commits suicide or takes a pill again! There is no choice left in his
life again, either he takes these tablets as an "escapism" where you are
hiding the reality, you are disguising or camouflaging, you are not
solving and tracing the problem.
Having Allah on your side means sailing
on a boat which no storm can sink. It doesn't mean you wont have
storms, you will have storms, you will have waves, but when you have
Allah (God) on your side, no storm will sink that ship. It is
contentment, grab hold onto it, I swear if you have it your a king
without a throne. Muhammad PBUH said "He who has contentment in his
heart, no calamities of this world will depress him". It doesn't mean
when a person has contentment, calamities will not come but rather Allah
will give him the strength to react differently, he will not get
emotional by situations.
Allah gives you the ability to focus, on the
reward promised in the hereafter. Friends you have seen the fake
pleasure of this world, you have seen how it has deceived you, I call
you and introduce you to divine pleasure, I introduce you to spiritual
pleasure, I swear by Allah, there is so much pleasure in worshiping
Allah, where you will prostrate to your Lord, and I promise you will
derive such pleasure, I swear by Allah in who's control is my life, you
wont be able to lift your head up.
