Sajid Ahmed Umar – Quran’s Formula for Happiness

			My dear brothers and sisters, my dear fathers and mothers, each and every one of us is looking for
the formula of happiness. We all want to be happy. Nobody gets up one day and says, Let me take the
formula of depression, have spent countless years happy, I need a change. Nobody says that.
Everybody wants happiness. And if we look at those who spoke about happiness, we find that some of
them said that happiness was in the attainment of financial standing, or material well being. And
some of them said happiness was in the attainment of many children, for example, some of them said
happiness was in having a handsome or pretty spouse. But if we really research those who got what
		

			they wanted, and thought, was happiness, we find that they never really attained the formula of
happiness, they might have attained a portion of what gains happiness but in terms of attaining
happiness and its formula in its totality, then they did not most definitely attain it and they will
testify to the stems of
		

			Allah subhanho wa Taala. In his book, given that Islam is a complete way of life, and has taught us
everything good, and warned us against everything bad, has indeed taught us the formula of
happiness. Allah subhanho wa Taala says, Minami Allah saw the
		

			Salah no
		

			Nigerian
		

			con
		

			la ilaha illa Allah, listen to this.
		

			Allah subhanho wa Taala says, For the one who does good deeds from both the males and the females,
		

			and they are believers, for a new key and
		

			then for them, Allah subhanho wa Taala will give a resilient life, a happy life, a fulfilling life.
And the prize of living a life full of good deeds is not restricted to happiness in this world.
Rather, it follows on into that which is known as the perpetual life may Allah subhanho wa Taala
makers from amongst those happy both in this world as well as the hereafter. So this here are
servants of Allah is the formula of happiness.
