Assalamualaikum
I was emailed this dua recently from a friend of mine. She was unable to find the Arabic but the English translation captures some of its beauty:
- “O Allah, make my love for You the most beloved thing to me, and my fear for You the most fearful thing to me, and remove from me all worldly needs and wants by instilling a passion for meeting You, and when You have given the people of the world the pleasures of their world, make the coolness of my eyes (pleasure) in worshipping You.” Ameen
How beautiful.
In other news, there have been several reminders I’ve had recently about the vulnerability of life and the swiftness with which it passes by. It’s truly miraculous that we’re even alive and breathing knowing there are 298734928374 different things that could go wrong with our intricate body and its functions. SubhanAllah. Glory be to Allah.
pEACe,
