Brutally murdered with his blood falling on the Qur'anic ayah "but Allah will suffice thee as against them" SubhanAllah.

we spend too much time on body, when the leader of the body is the HEART and this is what we need to focus on.

the body will always go wrong as long as the heart is neglected

how to get the heart in a good state?

the heart has two forces/powers/abilities:
-comprehension/knowledge all intellectual faculties <<< about what the heart can contain/possess

-love/inclination <<< about the impact the heart has on other things.

if theses two forces used wrongly - lead to misery, sadness, frustrated heart. this is the inevitable outcome.

if we do not use the heart for ITS PURPOSE - we will destroy it.
e.g: using a small car to carry heavy loads - in long run it will cause you more trouble than good

Opinions? yes? no?

Stories?

I’ve felt for quite some time that it’s unfair, and sometimes dangerous, to explain anything in Islam in the wrong way…

Especially matters requiring our compliance to Allah’s laws.

Our first response to any question of why we do something should be simply that Allah told us to. Thereafter we are free to, as I did with the college audience, give an analogy to demonstrate some benefit or wisdom. But we should never imagine that the benefit or wisdom we see is the reason we do something in Islam.
