A SOUND HEART

 "The day when neither wealth nor sons will benefit except the one who come to Allah with a sound heart"
This is the verse of Allah, in this verse a beautiful word is used " sound heart". How we achieve this thing and become respectful and obedient people of Allah. Whilst sending us to this world by granting us wealth, children and businesses, Allah ta'ala have informed us not to become engrossed in the glitter and glamour of the foreign world and forget our real homeland, the hereafter. The one who destroys his hereafter by becoming engrossed in the dazzle of this world is an internationally Donley.
Are we going to live in this world permanently or are  we eventually going to depart? The graveyard is a silent abode . We have to depart from this secular life one day.
How many plans person make: he wants to build a house, he wants to do this and that but when death comes into a person's eyes are open but he cannot see. He has ears but he cannot hear. He has a tongue but he cannot taste. He has hands but he cannot count the pounds. All his senses are rendered useless. We have to find out that our hearts whether our hearts are well or ill.

The First Sign of A Sound Heart 

The one who spends his wealth in good avenues (for the sake of Allah)
. One should spend generously in such avenues and hope
That he will be rewarded for it in the Hereafter. This is a means of foreign
Exchange. The one who is a miser (Makkhi Choos) will not spend in the path
Of Allah. Now, you may ask what is a Makkhi Choos? There was a miser, and
A fly fell into his quarry. When the fly began to fly away, he quickly caught it,
Licked the gravy off its wings and then let it go. From that time onwards, the
Phrase Makkhi chaos came into existence. Another incident  comes  to  mind.  A miser was  eating  figs,  which  are
Called 'Teen' in Arabic. A Qari Saheb was passing by. The miser realized that 
He  would  have  to  share  the  figs  with  him.  He  immediately hid  the  figs  in  his 
Shawl.  When  Qari  Saheb  arrived,  the  miser asked  him to  recite  Surah Wat-
Teen  The  word  "Wat-teen"  means  "By the  oath  of  the  fig,"  Qari  Saheb 
Began reciting the Surah in the following manner: 
 .  /ﻟ 
The miser said, "Qari Saheb, you have erred! You left out ﻟ  .The 
Verse is  /ﻟ ﻟ  Qari Saheb replied, "I have not forgotten. How can I read 
ﻟ  when the figs are hidden under the Shawl?" 
The Second Sign of A Sound Heart

A person who guides and makes his children the friends of Allah Ta'alaWhen a person's children are afflicted by cancer or some other illness,he runs to the friends of Allah. He hankers after Taweezes and asks thefriends of Allah to supplicate for him.Similarly, if one's children are afflicted by the illness of negligence,they do not perf orm Salah or Fast, they behave like hippies, hanker after women and are involved in the evils of films, videos and music, one should beconcerned. One should worry about their condition on the Day of Resurrection. Take them to the friends of Allah Ta'ala. Plead with them or givethem some money and take them to Allah’s chosen servants where the talksof Deen are taking place. To endeavor to make one's children pious is also asign of a sound heart. Now you can decide for yourself whether you have asound heart or not.15


  The Third Sign of A Sound Heart  




                                       

         The one whose heart is free of the preponderance of desires  


        He  is  not  so  overpowered  by  desires  that  he  cannot  distinguish  

between Halaal and Haraam. This means that if a person desires Halaal, for  

example, he wants to drink Marinda or Coke or he wants to eat Samoosas, he  

can  do  so.  He  can  partake  of  whatever is  Halaal.  However,  if  pork  is  being  

praised  somewhere,  he  should  not  even  look  at  it.  Do  not  even  look  at  

Haraam. Look at your wife and parents. By looking at your parents with love,  

Rasulullah ملسو ہيلع  یلص said that such a person receives the reward of an  

Accepted Hajj. The Sahabah ہنع  یﻟاعت  یضر asked what if a person looks at  

His  parents  a  hundred  times  a  day.  Rasulullah ملسو  ہيلع    یلص  replied that  a  

person can look as many times as he wants. Allah Ta’ala is great. He will be  
rewarded as many times.                        
        He has granted you the ability to see with your eyes and the ability to  

hear with your ears. Use these senses, which Allah has granted you, for His  

sake. Allah has given life (Jan) and bread (Nan). Eat bread and abstain from  


Haraam.  One  who  stares  at  females,  whether  at  the  airport  or  in  shopping  

malls or unnecessarily passes by girls school does  not have a sound heart.  
              
This  is  a very  dangerous  malady. If  he truly  believed  in  Allah  and  the  Final  

Day,  his  human  nobility  would  not  have  permitted  him  to  look  at  Haraam  

things. Allah is watching you no matter where you look.  




           The Fourth Sign of A Sound Heart  


          A person whose heart is free of wrong and deviated beliefs  

 

        One whose heart is free of wrong and deviated beliefs. He does not  

ask for things from the graves. Remaining free of deviated beliefs is also a  

sign of a pure heart. The one who asks from beings other than Allah or who  

regards disobedient people as the friends of Allah Ta'ala also does not  

possess a sound heart. Accordingly, a pious poet says:  
     Even if he flies in the air day and night,   

           Consider him to be Shaytaan if he abandons the Sunnah  

                                         

        It is sinful to regard as Waliullah that person who has no regard for the  

Sunnah. It is Kufr. There is a disease today of regarding such people as pious  

people and going to them who are speculators and those who don loincloths  

but  do  not  perform  Salah,  who  smoke  cigarettes  and  have  no  beards.  A  

Waliullah is only the one who treads the path of Rasulullah 

                                             

              The Fifth Sign of A Sound Heart  


                                                                

                                                           . 

                                                            

        The fifth Tafseer is extreme for the great friends of Allah.  

          The one whose heart is empty of everything besides Allah   


        His heart reflects the following poems:  

                      My heart should become one plain  

                      Where only You remain 
  Instead of water and clay in torso  

 There must be only a pain in the heart for You  

                 My gaze must be cast off others completely  

                   Only You must be visible wherever I took  

  

        When  a  person  has  Allah  in  his  heart,  he  sees  Allah  everywhere,  

When the heart is negligent, it reflects the following couplet.  

         When the heart was a garden, spring dripped from everything  

      When the heart became desolate, the whole world became desolate  

  

        When the heart is ravaged due to sins, the whole world will seem to  

be plundered. However, if Allah is in the heart, one will see a garden and the  

Creator of flowers everywhere. How does one obtain the Creator of flowers?  

When you turn your gaze away from the flowers of this world, you will obtain  

the Creator of flowers. A pious poet says:         


         I have lost the spring of life and obtained the pain of the heart  

            I lost the entire garden for the sake of one moist flower  

        Sacrifice the whole enjoyment of London and England, otherwise, you  

will obtain only land from England and you will not obtain Allah Ta'ala.  


        Let  us  supplicate to  Allah  Ta'ala  to  grant  us  a  life  of  piety. O  Allah,  

forgive  our  sins.  Forgive  our  past  sins.  Illuminate  our  present  with  Your  

pleasure and render our future radiant with piety and steadfastness. Grant all  

of us a life of piety. O Allah, Make Akhtar, his family, his friends and all his  

acquaintances reach the final limit where the Siddiqeen reach.  

   DU'A - A necessary condition for attaining the  

               wlove of Allah Ta'ala  

          w 

        One of the necessary conditions for attaining the love of Allah Ta'ala,  

which many people are neglectful about is Du'a (supplicating to Allah Ta'ala  

    w 

from the depths of the heart).  

        We know how to ask Allah Ta'ala for our worldly needs but only the  

special   servants   of   Allah   Ta'ala   ask   Allah   for   His   love.   This   fact   is  

substantiated  from  the  Hadith  of  Rasulullah  ملسو  ہيلع    یلص  wherein  he  

supplicates:  

                                        

                                کبح کﻟاسا ینا مھلﻟا 

                       O Allah! I ask You for Your love  

                                 (Tirmidhi Shareef)  
Hazrat Haji lmdadullah Muhajir Makki ہيلع  ۃمحر used to cry to Allah Ta'ala  

saying:  

         Some are asking for something and some for something else  

                  O Allah! I beg of You to grant me Yourself  

  

        The  method  of  supplicating  Allah  Ta'ala  in  this  special  manner,  

however, should be learned from those who have a special connection with  

Allah  Ta'ala.  For  this,  there  is  couple  of  heart-rending  Du'as  of  Hazratwala  

mentioned below for the benefit of the respected readers. May Allah Ta' ala  

grant us all the ability to supplicate to Allah Ta'ala through them.  

    -   O Allah Ta'ala! Entrench this firm intention within our hearts that we  

        will no longer displease You. We will put our lives on the line in order  

        to  please  You.  We  will  not  allow  even  a  single  form  of  Haraam  

        pleasure to sway us away from You.      

    -   O  Allah!  Since  we  are  sacrificing  our  very  lives  for  You,  instill  Your  

        love  in  our  heart  and  soul  whereby  every  single  thing  in  the  entire  

        world becomes meaningless and valueless in comparison to You.  

    -   O Allah! Grant us the ability to obey You. Grant us Your perfect love  

   

        whereby  we  do  not  displease  You  for  even  a  single moment  of  our  

        lives.              

    -   O Allah! Let us not sacrifice ourselves and die over that which has no value.            

  

    -   O Allah! If we do happen to sin then grant us the ability to turn to You   in repentance, because there is no Allah besides You to whom we can turn to.
