Dhkir/Zikir

There are hundreds of benefits associated with Zikir, the act of rehearsing and celebrating the praises of Allah SWT. Zikir strengthens the heart and body, illuminates the countenance and the heart, leads one to prosperity, and itself a raiment of awe, splendour and glory.

Zikir nurtures the love of Allah SWT in the heart and draws the worshipper near to Him. Allah SWT throws open the doors of understanding for the worshipper engaged in Zikir. 

Zikir engenders awe of Allah SWT, invigorates the heart, cleanses it, washes away it's transgressions, and it also closes the gulf between the worshipper and the Creator. Zikir strengthens the spirit. By rehearsing the praises of Allah SWT, the worshipper comes to know Allah SWT comfort in times of hardships, and hope of redemption from His wrath.

Zikir causes a feeling of assurance and well being or Sakinah to descend upon the heart enveloped in the warm glow of Allah SWT mercy. The angel sit with those who quietly recite the praises of Allah SWT and will from grief on the Day of Resurrection.

The Prophet Muhammad SAW said,

One who remembers Allah SWT in seclusion and weeps will remain in the shadow of Allah SWT on the Day when there is no shade but His. Allahuakbar 

Imaginary

Imagination is like a window

That looks through time

Above time and beyond time

Unveiling the multiple facets of reality

Revealing the illusion of its own existence

Hiding the footsteps of eternity

The truth beyond logic

The path of righteousness

Illuminated wisdom

Hidden inside our hearts

Hope

In the light, I find strength to cope,

For every stumble, there's a glimmer of hope.

With each step forward, uncertainty will ease,

Yet, in the dance of life, I find my place.

No matter the path or the winding trail
