The brand new sky

Once we attended a speech given by a brotherwho came from France. The
speech was very heart warming and good to our imaan. I will share a
little bit of what he was saying. He said that our heart is filled so
much with what we see. Nice houses, cars, dollars, cclothes, etc.
These are just little little creations ofmankind and get used up very
soon. He told us not to fill our hearts with these small creations of
men but to fill our hearts with the Greatness of Allah by looking at
His uncomparable creations. He told us to look at the sky. It's
billions of years old but everyday it looks brand new. He told us to
look at the birds, they only have one dress and they don't even do
laundry. But even after 20years, you look at their feathers and they
still shine. Allahu Akbar! Let usempty our hearts of all the
materials, and bring only Allah into it.
"Everyone shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection shall
you be paid your wages in full. And whoever is removed away from the
Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful. The life of
this world is only the enjoyment of deception (adeceiving thing)." Al
Qur'an 3:185
