Repenting In Ramadan
In the name of Allah the most gracious the most merciful
Thanks to Allah who brought us
to light, opened the door of repenting to his slaves. We send
prayers and peace upon the messenger of Allah, and
then:
Repenting in
Ramadan….
My dear brother: I
congratulate you with the arrival of this blessed month, the month
of repenting, forgiveness and stalling from the fire…The month of
good and blessing…The month of liberality and beneficence…And I say
to myself, to you, and every delinquent:
You whom the guilt didn't satisfy
him in Ragab,
Till he is still disobeying his God
in Shaaban,
After that a generous month came to
you,
So don't make it as well a month of
disobedience,
Recite the book and extol in it with
assiduousness,
Because it a month of extolling and
the holy Quran.
Come on, come on, the one who
is seeking good…
The prophet (peace be upon
him) said: "when it is the first night of Ramadan the devils and
giant devils are chained up, the doors of the fire are closed, so
that not a single door from it is opened, and the doors of heaven
are opened, so there is no door from them which is closed, and a
caller calls: You who is seeking good come closer, and you who is
seeking the evil shorten, and Allah has redeems from the fire, and
that is every night" Narrated by Eltermezi.
Yes Ramadan came…So get near to your God, that you disobeyed, get
near pleading, devout, regretful, weeping, and say:
Deity of the universe I am coming
back
And the endower of the good endows
to me guidance.
So it wouldn't be useful when losing
the guidance.
Remission, kindness lessens my
stumbling.
Because there is no one else except
you who will make the beautiful pardon.
My brother if you weren't
remitted, your eyes shed, and heart broken in front of your God in
this month, so when then?
Human, here is Allah
admonishing you saying "O mankind, what has deceived you concerning
your Lord, the Generous," [Al-Infitar 82:6]

Gharraka Birabbika Al-Karīmi
Yes, you human what decoyed
you from God, so that you dared to disobey him and passed the
lines, is it ignoring his grace, or forgetting to his censorship
and greatness?
My brother! Don't look at how
small is the sin, but look at how great is the one you
disobeyed.
My brother! Don't make Allah
the easiest one looking at you.
You have good
news.
Here I am introducing you good
news from your blessed Almighty God and his messenger-(peace be
upon him) "Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against
themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah.
Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the
Forgiving, the Merciful." [Az-Zumar 39:53]

Yaghfiru Adh-Dhunūba Jamī`āan 'Innahu Huwa Al-Ghafūru
Ar-Raĥīmu
So, repent my brother, if you
wanted this great profit (Allah exchanges your sins with good
deeds). Then listen to what your beloved (peace be upon him) said
encouraging the repentance "Allah more glade with his slave
repentance" (agreed upon)
And also said: " Be he exalted: Son of Adam whenever you invocated
and hoped me, I forgive you what was from you and I don't care, Son
of Adam if you sins reached the firmament then you asked me
forgiveness, I will forgive you and I don't care"
And when the messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) saw a woman
searching for her son among the captives, so when she saw him she
hugged him and feed him from her breast, so he said: Do you see
this can throw her son in the fire, so they said no, he said: Allah
is more merciful from her with her son"
Allah is Bigger…So
should we lag from the repentance after this merit? Should we delay
the repentance after this liberality? O Allah Your far above every
lack and defect, how merciful you are, how kind you are, how
generous you are.
Speak out with
yourself…
What prevents you from the
repentance, the following of righteousness? As you are saying: The
family, the society, the friends! I am afraid that I repent, and
then I go back! My sins are too much so how I can be forgiven! I am
afraid about my family and money!
So I say to you: Do you think
you would be saying this to your God, the day you meet him? No I
swear by Allah…But it is just faked obstacles and barriers that can
be broken only by the one who fears his God.
And if the
souls were big
The bodies get
tired in achieving their desires.
So be honored with your
religion, have true determination on good, keep it up, depend on
Allah, then you remember the mercy of your God and his wide
forgiveness.
My brother/my sister…. If the
Angel of Death came to you in this moment, do you agree to meet
your God at this situation?
My brother/my sister… Excuse
me; don't run from yourself and its judgment, if you didn't judge
it now, tomorrow in your grave you will regret, when the regret is
useless.
The new
birth...
Keep in mind that the
repentance isn't only for this month, but all the months, and who
knows? May be your new birth will be in the month of goodness and
blessing, the human may be born two times: the day he comes out
from the darkness of his mother womb, or the day he comes out from
the darkness of the sin to the light of obedience, so be that
one.
And I advise you…. That you
catch with the good guys that benefit you even after your
death-After the permission of Allah-with their invocation… Catch
them and go with them in their departure and arrival, take patience
with them until you meet your God, at which you and them are told:
"Peace be upon you for what you patiently endured. And excellent is
the final home" [Ar-Raad 13:24]

A story and a
situation…
He was with the good guys,
then he left them, he began remissness with his religion issues…
(We ask Allah the protection)… And one day he was travelling in a
picnic…And in the way the car was turned over…Then it was the
recovery room….Then death.
The sad news came… We prayed
on him, he was carried to the tomb… put in his grave… In the dust…
He won't be back….. The eyes shed….the heart grieved …at that time
one of the good guys (I suppose him and Allah is his adequate and I
don't recommend on Allah anyone) he was his first friend, he sat at
his grave bowing and invocating for him.
At that time I knew who from
your friends benefit you after your death.
My brother, don't be from
those who Allah said about them "And the Day the wrongdoer will
bite on his hands [in regret] he will say, 'Oh, I wish I had taken
with the Messenger a way. Oh, woe to me! I wish I had not taken
that one as a friend. He led me away from the remembrance after it
had come to me. And ever is Satan, to man, a deserter.'" [Al Furqan
25:27-29]

Before the
doors close…
My brother before the door
closes specify (now and don't delay) the path that you will pass in
and will be your manner in life and the hereafter.
How happiness it is, and how
joy in the heart glades, when he comes back to his God repentant
and catch up with the good guys……. I Swear by Allah that it is the
happiness that no one has tasted it except those who tried it
before.
My brother in religion… if you
are determined on repenting and coming back…Returning and
submission.
You should
know that this repentance has conditions that must be
done:
1-
Regretting what you have
done.
2-
Stopping the sin.
3-
Determination of not coming
back, and if you came back renew the repentance.
4-The repentance should be before,
then gargling and the rise of the sun from its
setting.
Pray to Allah prophet
Mohammed, all his family, and companions.
