BISMILLAAHIR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM.
ASSALAMU'ALAIKUM WRBTH, DEAR ILHAM FRIENDS,
The following ayat is from surah Al-Hadid (57:19). I love this ayat because in a few words Allah SWT informs us about the nature of our temporal lives:
"Know that the life of the dunya is merely a game and a diversion and ostentation and a cause of boasting among yourselves and trying to outdo one another in wealth and children: like the plant-growth after rain which delights the cultivators, but then it withers and you see it turning yellow, and then it becomes broken stubble. In the Akhira there is terrible punishment but also forgiveness from Allah and His good pleasure. The life of the dunya is nothing but the enjoyment of delusion." (57:19)
Aisha Bewley's translation.
Ma'Salamah,
Sr. Tasneem
