The prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam asked his companions
a very good question.
How would you describe the joy and happiness
of the following person?
Someone who was traveling on a camel,
loaded with food and water, but the destination
was far away and the process was very
rough. It was an open desert, empty, barren,
no trees, no living beings, no water, no
well, very harsh conditions.
So while he was traveling at one point
he told himself,
I will go under a tree and rest.
While he was resting, what happened? He fell
asleep.
As he was sleeping
the camel with all the food and drink
somehow
the reins, the rope got loosened up and
it left the man, Allahu Akbar.
Eventually after some time that man woke up.
When he woke up, where's the camel?
Right and left back. Where's the camel? This
is a dream? Nah. It's not a dream.
The camel's where? So he got so scared.
He panicked. He searched. The prophet
said this man, he went all the way
to one direction, so far away, looking for
the camel. Where is it? He did not
find it. Went to a second direction as
far as he can looking around it. Where's
the camel? No camel. Went to a third
direction searching for the camel but he did
not find anything.
This man was so exhausted
sweating
thirsty the heat of the sun. Oh it
was so bad to the point he exhausted
all the means and all the energy that
he gave up. What do you mean he
gave up? He gave up on his life.
He gave up on finding the camel and
he told himself, I will go to the
place I was at and sit until I
die. That's how bad the situation.
That's how hopeless he was brothers and sisters.
Now remember the question, how happy he will
be in the following situation?
As he was sitting
and he placed his head on his arm
and while he was doing that he dozed
off and he slept.
While he was sleeping who came the camel
Allahu Akbar and look how it came It
came so close to him that the reins
or the rope around the camel came next
to his hand, Allahu Akbar. Then
he
opened up his eyes, he looked and he
saw the camel, Allahu Akbar. He grabbed the
reins of the camel and then he went
and he said, Allah oh Allah
you are my slave. Hold on don't judge
me that was he what he said. Yes
he said that. Oh Allah
you are my slave and I am your
lord. The prophet said
this man made a mistake
for how happy he was. The Sahaba said,
yes. We can definitely answer the question by
saying this man was so happy
unlike any other situation in the world pretty
much. So then ready for this? The prophet
sallallahu alaihi wasallam said,
Allah is happier when his servant repents and
asks Allah's forgiveness
more than that man who found his camel
and belongings. Allahu Akbar. So, yes, repent to
Allah because you fear Allah's punishment. Repent to
Allah because you wanna start a new page,
but also repent to Allah
so Allah can be happy.
May Allah allow us to be of those
whom Allah is happy with. May Allah forgive
us all.
