Invite Allah’s Power and Wisdom Into Your Life

Allah's power and wisdom are limitless and beyond our comprehension.
But guess what? There is a key that brings Allah's infinite wisdom
into play in your life. That key is prayer. Salat and dua' arelike a
special hotline that transcends the veils of space and time and goes
directly to Allah. Prayer is the means and the voice that Allah has
given us to speak to Him, ask His forgiveness, and request His
assistance and wisdom in any situation that we are dealing with.And it
works.
"And when My servants ask you, [O Muhammad], concerning Me – indeed I
am near. I respond to theinvocation of the supplicant when he calls
upon Me. So let them respond to Me and believe in Me that they may be
guided." Quran, Al-Baqarah 2:186
Miracles happen every day. Do you not believe that miracles can happen
in your life as well? Do you think that you are too insignificant for
that?SubhanAllah. Allah sees and knows every fallen leaf, every grain
in the darkness of the earth; and He knows your innermost thoughts. He
iscloser to you than your jugular vein. (Quran 50:16)
Do you think that Allah's nearness to you is because He mistrusts you?
No! Allah has nothing to fear from you,and therefore nothing to
mistrust. Allah is near to you because He loves you. He is near to you
because He cares about you and understands your pain. He is near to
you so that He can help you. You matter, as much as the ocean, the
trees and the stars. You are important to Allah, not asa general
concept, but you, as an individual person with your own private needs
and fears. You only have to turn to Him, and call upon Him; and His
wisdom, power and guidance will manifest in your life.
I personally went through a very difficult period when I was younger.
At the time I feltthat I had failed in life. I was beginning to feel
some despair. But I kept my faith in Allah, and I prayed to Him in the
day and the dark of the night. I trusted Allah, and I knew that He
would notabandon me. And then the last person I would expect, an
acquaintance who I hardly knew and who had no reason to care about me
or my situation, suddenly took an interest and began helping me.
Within a short period of time I hada job, and was able to get my own
apartment, and my life had changed completely. It was literally a
miracle. Even now it blows my mind. Allah stepped into that situation,
and He made the impossible possible, because I believed in Himand I
prayed.
Miracles happen every day. Allah hears you. You matter.
"O You the Ever Living Who sustains all that exists! O You Who
createdthe heavens and the earth without precedence. O You, Who Owns
the glory and the honor, none has the rightto be worshipped except
You. We seek refuge withYour mercy. Grant Us success in all of our
matters. Please, do not abandon us to rely on ourselves even for an
instant nor on any of Your creation." – (dua' mentioned in Tafsir ibn
Kathir)
