A Youths Perspective in South Africa

In the Islamic faith, The almighty God has 99 Names,  Today I choose to write about one of Gods 99 names which is  Al Alim, Jalla Jalaluhu which means he who knows everything he created from the most secret to the the most obvious. He who has eternal and everlasting knowledge, from what is spoken by the lips to what us hidden in the heart.  The first command of God in the Holy Quraan is '' Ikra '' meaning read. But what is meant by this command isn't only reading books. It also means reading the order of the universe. Contemplating this order after becoming equipped with wisdom.  In verse 191 of Surah Al Imran, Allah Commands, They remember their  lord while standing or sitting or lying on their sides. They give thought to the creation of the heavens and the earth saying ''Our Lord, you did not create this aimlessly. Exalted are you above such a thing. Protect us from the punishment of the fire" Look at the things around you that God created as examples...

  Oh Doubt Oh Desire, Blinded by a deception and veil that covers the eyes, ears, heart & speech. Oh Doubt Oh Desire, You fed souls with deceit And made many hearts feel incomplete Oh Doubt Oh Desire, People have become imprisoned to the traps you have placed Some are serving a life sentence of worship towards you. Oh Doubt Oh Desire, You’ve broken homes, hope and faith in people. You are the common denominator for people walking away from the holy spirit. You’ve led people to see a piece of gold instead of seeking the diamond infront of them. Oh Doubt Oh Desires This is the currency used for your worshippers to enslave others. You have barriers for patience as you have turned human beings into animals. Oh Doubt Oh Desires You try to break spirits by approaching matters in an arrogant manner You allow your mental intelligence to control your emotional intelligence. You speak to demoralize characters and eliminate faith from the heart. You eliminate the factors of kindness an...

 In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful حسبنا الله و نعم الوكيل Allah is Sufficient for us, and He is the best Disposer of affairs for us A powerful ayat that brings a level of peace & spiritual upliftment when read during Dhir ( a form of workship by praising the almighty & prophets of Allah).  My question always stumbled upon as to why this Ayat is close to my heart. Upon my quest for spiritual upliftment & research into the revelation of this Ayat, It is narrated that this Ayat was revealed to Prophet Ibrahim ( Abraham) & Prophet Muhammed as they were going through times of difficulties. Both Prophets had different challenges & perspective when the Ayat was revealed, however this Ayat brought a sense of tranquillity to ease the calamities which they were going through.  How beautiful is this Ayat ? taking a trip down memory lane, during the 40 days prayer when my mothers soul has left the body, I heard this Ayat, not understanding ...

The happiest and most satisfied person in this life is the one in that finds a level of contentment. This person sees their situation as the most suitable for them because their Lord put them in that situation. If it is good for me, then God will have put me in that situation. When you are in this station of contentment, you are far from anger because anger is a result of thinking that you can have everything, the way you want it to be.  A meaning of 'pain' is that of 'separation from the Beloved', where the one in pain is a person who, in separation, seeks Union and cure.  One person is content with pain, another with the cure; One is content with Union, another with separation. I am content with whatever the Beloved desires. Be it cure, pain. Union or separation. The true lover prefers the Beloved's desires to his own, and is content with whatever the Beloved desires — be it pain or cure, separation or Union. Another meaning of 'pain' which is closest to i...

Love 💗 decrees that by learning how to love through the love of a person, the sincere beholder could in principle transform his or her love of a person into the love of God. Because love is the most brutal ego annihilation, Being in love means surrendering your ego. The word orgasm in French is called little death. Being in love with anyone is like dying to your old life and being reborn into a new dimension. The relationship is dangerous. It is dangerous because the more you love someone, the more and more you evaporate. And when you have come really close you are no more. It is dangerous because it is suicidal but the suicide is beautiful. Because if you survive this suicide you will walk towards God because you would have experienced the limitations of egoic living and tasted the ecstasy of surrender. One needs to remove all barriers in their heart to obtain the true meaning of love. One has to have a clear perspective in life and have trust and faith in the almighty in whatever ...

A message for the Youth A South African boy has the dream of serving humanity full time, This is a dream where only his heart can understand & comprehend.    Gift of the Givers foundation is an organization where I found peace & where I found contentment. I have been getting involved in numerous different projects with Gift of the Givers where I was given this exposure to different projects by Allaudeen Sayed (Regional Director).He does not wait for things to happen, he makes things happen.
