And it's
clearly,
you know, illustrated in the Quran when Allah
says to Sayna Muhammad
That indeed,
the only all of these stories that we
have related to you from the unseen
were sent solely to strengthen your heart.
That's why Al Junaid Al Baghdadi
he said that
that the stories of the righteous
are like soldiers of god,
which are meant to strengthen the hearts of
the people who are striving to be near
to Allah
And Allah
mentions clearly
the need to reflect on history
when he said
Remind them of the days of Allah.
Remind them of those days of Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala. And over and over in the
Quran
and and remind them of this and remind
them this and remind them of this and
remind them what's core, what's core, what's core,
what's core, what's core, what's core, Mention this
and mention this and mention this over and
over and over again. So definitely,
history has a very important place
in motivating us and guiding us and teaching
us and helping us as we move forward
in the short amount of time that we
have to live in this world. In some
ways, as one of my teachers used to
say, like, the history of people is a
cheat sheet for your life.
So, like, you can look at their lives
and learn lessons
and then try to apply
the good from those lessons and avoid
the evil
from those lessons.
