“You must be willing to change. You must be willing to break the deal you made with the devils within. You must be willing to leave the past and not be tempted to rebound when times are tough. You must be willing to let go of everything and anyone that takes you back to your sins. You must be willing to have hope. You must be willing to have hope that you can change and that you will and that you will be better. You must believe you are worthy of change and you are worthy of improvement and you are worthy of being the best. You must be willing to set aside your negative notions about life, about hardships, about people, about things, about yourself. You must be willing to stop feeling sorry for yourself while looking at the world move around you. Get up and make something of yourself.”
Love for the sake of Allah (subhanahu wa ta`ala), and not for the sake of anything else in this life which is filled with greed, desires and interests, is very difficult, and none can attain it except the one who is pure of heart, for whom this world is as nothing compared to the pleasure of Allah (subhanahu wa ta`ala). It is not surprising that Allah (subhanahu wa ta`ala) should give them a status and blessing which is commensurate with their position in this world, above whose concerns they have risen. We find proof of this in the hadith of Mu'adh who said that the Prophet (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam) said: "Allah (subhanahu wa ta`ala) said: 'Those who love one another for My glory, will have minbars of light, and the Prophets and martyrs will wish that they had the same." [Reported by al-Tirmidhi, who said it is a hasan sahih hadith]
Life plan of Muslim
Publication time: 18 September 2012, 14:43
Outcome of life - Paradise;
Purpose of life which leads to Paradise - proper worship (Ibadat) of his Creator; Condition to achieve the goal - right intention (niyat); Causes leading to the goal - complete submission to Allah; Actions that generate reasons - to stick the Qur'an and Sunnah; Means - Jihad against nafs (soul) and Taghut (false deities).
Life Plan can not be completed without Jihad against Taghut and victory over one's own nafs. Sign of victory over the nafs - conscious obedience to Allah and fear of God in all worldly and religious affairs. And you can not fully submit to Him when worshipping false gods.
Jihad against Taghut - establishing the laws of Allah on the whole earth
