Allah and forgiveness

 Have you ever wondered why we start our prayer with “Allahu Akbar”?

“Allahu Akbar” is the key phrase because with it we affirm that Allah, before Whom we are about to stand, is greater than anything occupying us at that moment. 
He is greater than our job, greater than our business, greater than our sleep, our bills, our family and our children, greater than all that troubles or preoccupies us. 

Have you ever wondered why when we make duahs we praise Allah first?
It is because He is MALIK and KARIM. He will accept our duahs.
Have you ever wondered why we see miracles of Allah?
It is due to the fact that he is present and constantly telling us" i am the only one to be prayed.
Narrated Narated By Mu'adh bin Jabal : 
The Prophet said, "O Mu'adh! Do you know what Allah's Right upon His slaves is?"
I said, "Allah and His Apostle know best." The Prophet said, "To worship Him (Allah) Alone and to join none in
worship with Him (Allah). Do you know what their right upon Him is?"

I replied, "Allah and His Apostle know best." The Prophet said, "Not to punish them (if they do so)." 

Have you noticed that when we neglect salah, we get dreams from Allah, trying to show us what to do.

Have you ever noticed that when we are in difficulties, the first thing that comes into our mind ALLAH.

Do you know why allah created jannat?
It is for us. Good deeds in this world, will be rewarded jannat in the Next world.

Do you know why allah created jahanam?
For non-believers of Allah and Mohammad s.a.w. For those who kept on commiting sins (betting, adultery,discos, etc..) and not asking for forgiveness and for those who continued to commit atrocities.

 Allah is simply the greatest. allah akbar.
Fear Allah that you may be prosperous. Obey Allah and perhaps you may escape
from His punishment of which He has warned you and attain His reward which He has made you desire. 
And fear the fire which He has prepared for the disbelievers, a resort for those who disbelieve Me.

O ye people! Eat of what is on earth, Lawful and good; and do not follow the footsteps of the evil one.
  


Spend of your substance in the cause of Allah, and make not your own hands contribute 
to (your) destruction; but do good; for Allah loveth those who do good. 

All of us have committed sins, whether big or small before it is not too late 
Insha allah, our forgiveness will be accepted..
As you all know, one of the major signs of Qayamat will be that one day the sun will rise in the west. 
when this happens, the door for forgiveness will be closed and when we will ask for forgiveness,
it will not be accepted.
Allah is Azim and Ghaffar.






Don't wait too much to ask for forgiveness.

Shaddad ibn Aws narrated that the Prophet [صلى الله عليه وسلم] said; 
"the most superior request for forgiveness is to say:


'Allaahmma anta rabbee laa elaaha illaa ant.
Anta khalaqtanee wa ana 'abduka wa ana 'alaa 'ahdika wa wa'dika mastata't. 
A'oothu bika min sharri ma sana't. Aboo'u laka bi ni'matika alayya wa aboo'u laka bi thambee. 
Faghfir lee. Fa innahoo laa yaghfiruth-thunooba illaa ant.'


[O Allah, You are my Lord. There is no god besides You. You created me and I am Your servant,
following your covenant and [my] promise to you as much as I can.
I seek refuge in You from the evil that I have done. Before You I acknowledge Your blessings bestowed
upon me and I confess my sins to You.
So forgive me, for surely no one can forgive sins except You.]


The Prophet [صلى الله عليه وسلم] then added, 'anyone who says this during the day, firmly believing in it, 
and dies before the evening; or says it in the evening, firmly believing in it, and dies
before the following morning, 
will be among the people of paradise.' 

More simple:
Ya 'Afuw: One who recites this name frequently, his sins will be pardoned
99 names of allah.
Each of them has a special benefits attached to them.
please read them once.
