REPENTANCE


Thinking only Allah is there when we are sad, or happy. When we are hurt, or in joys. That is enough for us, running away from the horrible-temporary dunya, which can turn people to be a monster who creates a disaster... or a humble-piety man who plants a beautiful flower in human's heart... You choose.

Well, what is repentance exactly?? Repent Repent Repent. In Arabic we call it TAUBAH. When we repent, 1)we are facilitated to worship ONLY Allah!! The second one, 2) by virtue of repentance, worship and obedience find access to the Divine Court of Allah.

Explain please........
Okey, here we go;

1) When a man is addicted to sins, he is deprived of the virtue and facility of worship because of the curse of his sins. The burden of sins retards the prayers and activities of good deeds and servitude to Allah. Insistence and firmness on sins blackens the heart. The sinner always remains afflicted with the darkness and hardness of the heart. Wowwww!! scary isn't it?
He possesses neither sincerity, nor the purity of the heart nor the sweetness if Iemaan. This hardness of the heart sometimes leads to Allah's forbid. If a sinner is ever compelled to worship, he does it with difficulty and hesitation. such worship neither contains sweetness, nor freedom from sins. This is all due to the woes of sins and failure to repent from them. Thus, the first need of repentance is to serve oneself from being deprived of the virtue of worship.

2) An analogy for the second one is like this; A creditor does not accept from his debtor, any presents and gifts because the creditor desires repayment of the amount due by the debtor. If this way,we can question. Is Allah accepted our worships if we don't repent to HIM from our sins?? Its the obligatory duties to the sinner, and we ignore it. The sinners remain in disobedience by failing to take the repentance.



TAUBATUN NASOOHA

TAUBAH: -acts of heart -to purify our hearts from filth sins -to give up a sin after understand the greatness and grandeur of the Lord of the worlds and in fear of Allah's wrath and punishment.

FOUR conditions of repentance:-
1) make a firm resolve to never commit that sin again
2) He has now already given up committing those sins
3) should be offered for the sole reason; fear of Allah and realize the greatness of Allah
4) The repentance must be similar in degree and level to the sin which he committed in the past.


TO BE CONT......

The 1st time we commit sins, we repent bcz we committed by our mistake n through forgetfulness. But when we repeat those sins,it'll become our habit and immune to our imaan. We will feel nothing while committing it. May Allah protect us from any harms. Wa l'iyazubillah..

Regards,
Raudhah :)
