Oh lightningatnite you flatterer :)

Widad you were right that was a good site. Its wasn't the same as this morning. I always want to know what words I should repeat etc. Thanks for telling me 'astaghfirullah' is used for what your heart desires. I always hear people repeat it when something bad has been done I never realised its depth, but now I'm learning :)

Assalamu'alaikum :-)

Sis Hania, Sis Hania, where have you been? :)

So, did anyone identify you during Eid, at Regent's? Shiny blue hijab and long camel coat? ;)

About Astarghfirullah, here's more info about it [url=http://www.jannah.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl/YaBB.pl?board=madrasa&action=display&num=4250&start=30]here[/url] or, you could just scroll down below....

Hope it helps, inshaAllah :-)
Wassalam
==========================
Assalamu’alaikum :-)

sorry for the late reply... but I hope this helps, inshaAllah…. :)

This is an athar. An athar is a saying of the sahabah (companions of the Prophet). They would have said something from what they've learnt from Rasulullah SAW. It is a story of Hassan Ibn Ali r.a. It is taken from the tafsir of Imam Nasafi. Please excuse the translation. Afwan.

[color=blue]Hasan Ibn Ali went to meet up with Mu'awiyah at his residence. After he met Mu'awiyah, he left and met up with some guards of Mua’awiyah’s residence. One of them asked Hasan. "Oh Hasan, I am a man who has wealth, but I don’t have children. Teach me something so that Allah would bestow children onto me." Hasan replied: "Do lots of istighfar (Astarghfirullah – seek forgiveness of Allah).."

Following the nasihah of Hasan, the man did lots of istighfar in which he did istighfar up to 700 times each day. He was then bestowed with 10 children.

This news reached Muawiyah and he asked what is the basis of this.

The man said,"Have you not heard of Allah’s words…"

“(Hud said) O my people! Ask forgiveness (astarghfiru) of your Lord and then repent to Him, He will send you (from the sky) [color=red]abundant rain, and add strength to your strength [/color], so do not turn away from the Mujrimun (disbelievers of the Oneness of Allah)” Surah Hud 11: 52

“(Nuh said) I said: Ask forgiveness from your Lord, verily He is Oft Forgiving. He will send [color=red]rain to you in abundance and give you increase in wealth and children, and bestow on you gardens and bestow on you rivers [/color].” Surah Nuh 71:10-12

[/color]

There are also hadiths that support as such, but I do not know the strength of the hadiths. Afwan.

Personally, I think it is a beautiful story, and so r the ayahs, mashaAllah... very therapeutic.. Sometimes, we are insensitive of our own arrogance, and hence, the need to feel humbled and the realisation of who we truly are and who Allah really is... is by seeking forgiveness from Allah....

Like what Syed Qutb said in his "In the Shade of the Qur'an".. There are always hikmah (wisdom) why He didn't bestow success to us yet. One of the reasons why Allah did not bestow success to us may be because of a longer period of time needed by the [i]Jundullah[/i] (army of Allah) for tarbiyah as well as time for them to mature so that when success do come, it would not be easy for such success to be taken away and they would not be easily swayed by the temptations of the world.

Though Syed Qutb said the above in the context of success for Islam, da'wah and jihad, but I feel, it also applies to our individual micro lives... in which what we desire, is each of our own definition of success....like those who want children... and those who want to be married as well :)

So, here's a tip to those single brothers... and sisters of course ;)

Altogether now:
[color=green]Astarghfirullah Al Azeem [/color]:-)

Allahu a'lam
Take care :-)
The one who types needs the most reminders

"...Ya Allah, do not let us decree our own fate even for a blink of an eye, or a time shorter than that..." (From one of the dua's of Al-Mathurat)
