Introduction
My dear brothers and sisters in faith, there are moments when we feel an overwhelming desire to return to Allah, yearning for His guidance. We seek a beam of light and hope for forgiveness.
We observe the world around us and realize that it is fleeting, and only the face of Allah will remain. So, let us repent to Him and strive to gain His pleasure before it is too late.
Perhaps our end could come at any moment, and we might not be ready for that meeting—a meeting that even the greatest of the Companions and the righteous feared. They humbly pleaded to Allah, seeking His satisfaction. Let us call upon Him from the depths of our hearts to forgive us for the sins we know and the ones we do not.
All I hope is that you read my book not just with your eyes, but also with your hearts, so that you may feel the words that stemmed from a heart filled with reverence for Allah. May Allah benefit you from what you read and benefit me from what I have written.
Take My Hand
I am often overwhelmed by moments of anxiety, hesitation, and perhaps even boredom,
unsure of where to go…
