| In the name of Allah The Merciful The Compassionate Al Salam Alaikum Wa Rahmatu Allahi Wa BarakatuHu May peace be upon you and Allah's Mercy and His Blessings All Praises are to Allah, And may peace be upon His honorable Prophet. We go over many bridges in our commutes. These bridges go over rivers, gorges, and other roads. Some of these bridges are very long, some short. Some bridges are narrow with only one lane or just a foot crossing, some are wide with several lanes and several stories high. Some are lighted with street lights, some don't have much lighting. Allah has allowed all these bridges to exist. I would like to tell you about a bridge that Allah has made. This bridge is very narrow, thinner than a hair and sharper than a sword. There is no external lighting on this bridge. This bridge is very slippery. There are hooks on the side of this bridge, that grapple a person. This is the bridge that Allah has made that goes over the hell fire. People will have to cross over this bridge in order to enter the Jannah, the beutiful place that Allah has prepared for His servants. Below this bridge is the fire of hell. Some will be able to cross this bridge, by Allah's will, faster than a blink of an eye; some the speed of lighting; some the speed of a fast wind; some the speed of a horse or a camel. Some will make it safely across by the grace of Allah, others will fall down from this bridge into the fire of hell. On this bridge, there is no lighting except for what emits from the person. The fire of hell is black, so no lighting will come from there. The light will be shining from the person going in front of them, and to their right. Some will have a lot of light emitting from them, from their faces and bodies. Some will have less light emitting from them. Some will have a small amount of lighting coming from them, from their pinky finger. These people will pray to Allah, "Oh Allah, perfect our light for us!". The munafiqs (hypocrites) will not have any light, and will say to the believers, "Wait for us, let us borrow from your light." It will be replied to them, "Go back and look for a light there." Allah will then put a wall between them, with a door. On the one side of the wall will be Allah's mercy, and on the other side all along the wall will be Allah's punishment. My dear brothers and sisters, let us remember Allah much, and pray devoutly to Him, so that we could pass easily over this bridge. Allah is the King of the day of judgement. Allah has prepared a joyous place in the paradise for those that are devout to Him. Allah also has prepared a severe punishment for the evil doers. May Allah give us our light, and make it easy for us on the day of judgement. Allah is Most Kind, and full of bounties. Alsalam Alaikum Wa RahmatuAllahi Wa BrakatuHu May peace be upon you and Allah's Compassion and His Blessings. Ahmed ---------- http://www.tabligh.com. |
