STRAIGHTPATH July 26, 2011 GEMS FROM PARADISE Continued.... By Mumenah It was narrated about Jesus (PBUH) that he said: "Dont be afraid of the ones that kill the body and can`t kill the soul. Instead be afraid of the one that can destroy the body and the soul together in Hell." If the truth has been revealed to you and still you deny by not obeying the Successor on the Earth of Allah SWT, and someone kills you in this materialistic life, then know that Allah SWT can and will destroy your soul and body in Hell, but if the truth has been revealed to you and you accept it by obeying the Successor on the Earth of Allah SWT, then you won't have to even worry about who kills this body of yours, because it will be your soul that will go to Allah SWT, and it will be by the will of Allah SWT that you don't enter Hell along with your body! Imam Ahmad al Hassan A.S said: "Not everything that goes against darkness is light, but it could be darkness too ... but everything that goes against light is darkness, for one should know the light and it will make everything clear to him." When something is explained to you, think about it in the way that it is explained to you. Because when things are explained to you, your darkness can be turned into light by the will of Allah SWT and everything can be clear to you also by the will of Allah SWT. 14 Ahmad al Hassan A.S said: "Know that God has made for us, in the hearts of those who believe, love and kindness. Their hearts are soft to our love, and their tears drop for our missing, and you are tested in this too, so don`t let this get you away from God, don`t be like the one that gets distracted by the picture in the mirror, but it was made for you to get you to the picture. When you find out about Prophet Mohammed, and his Progeny, peace be upon them all, and you hold on to them a.s they a.s also hold onto you because they a.s want you to follow them a.s, because they want you to be in Heaven. They a.s love who loves them and if you love them by obeying them, it will only make sense that they a.s love you too. The reason our tears drop for their missing is because we wish that we were with them a.s in their time. You don't have to let this get you away from God, because God is the picture that we have to get to and Prophet Mohammed and his family, peace be upon them all, are the mirror of God, because they speak and only do what God wants them a.s. to, all praises and thanks are due to Him.
