Surah 18: Al Kahaf

Verse 31: For them will be Gardens of Eternity; beneath them rivers will flow; they will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and they will wear green garments of fine silk and heavy brocade; they will recline therein on raised thrones. How good the recompense! How beautiful a couch to recline on!

Reclaiming what is yours!

Ever taken a bath after a long warm day? Doesn’t it feel revitalizing?

Now, imagine! Try to internalize paradise!

It is within you. It might need some dusting! But it is within you. It might be buried under days, years, or even perhaps decades of disobedience. But I swear by the lord that provided you with the eyes you are reading with, you may reclaim it. Please do not hesitate! Do not shy away from taking what is yours! Your spot, my spot in Janna is ready for us. But we might be the ones that forsake ourselves!! Allah will never forsake us!! But first reclaim the jannah of your today before the one of your tomorrow.

What do I mean by all of this?

Have you ever done something for the sake of Allah? Not because you were expected to do! Not for the sake of keeping appearances! But simply because you were tired and wanted a change!

Did you ever wanted to plead with Allah to fill you with love, peace and tranquility? Then, did you ever get up or even simply read from your duaa book with conviction? Or maybe just listened to a Quran audio on the web? Just hoping that Allah hasn’t forsaken you!

What have you felt?

Did you ever feel like a cool ginger ale being poured into your body? Did you feel the cool wind chimes tingling all through out you?

That is the jannah of this today! It is called Iman! Allah is cleansing your heart! Granting you a move towards the jannah of tomorrow!

For today that is the closest we can get to the jannah of tomorrow! Indeed it is only a friction of what will be in store for you and I, lest we forsake ourselves and choose hundreds of days of mere play to an eternal life of bliss.

Before the sun of today sets, make a move!! Reclaim your jannah!

I leave you with the words of the one that created for you the eyes you see with, the ears you hear with and the tongue you speak with:

Surah Al Kahaf:

Verse 31: For them will be Gardens of Eternity; beneath them rivers will flow; they will be adorned therein with bracelets of gold and they will wear green garments of fine silk and heavy brocade; they will recline therein on raised thrones. How good the recompense! How beautiful a couch to recline on!
