In actual fact, we are living in a time of the imminent appearance of Imaam Mahdi. Just as is the story of the youth of Surah Kahf who were righteous in their oppressive surroundings Allah removed them from their circumstances and protected them by putting them to sleep in the cave. We need to remove ourselves from the dajaliyat of this world so Allah can put us in a \u2018cave\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lessons from Surah Kahf<\/strong><br \/>\n1. Bring Allah on the tongue again (insha Allah masha Allah)<br \/>\n2. Read Qur\u2019an daily (tilawat). It will remove any poison from your world. Qur\u2019an is the magnet that will keep man connected to his Creator.<br \/>\n3. Find the company of people who\u2019s hearts have been connected with Allah. They only talk of Allah not of this world. They will help you remove the love you have of this world and take you closer to the aakhirah (next world).<br \/>\n4. Don\u2019t be shy of your Islam. Your izzat (dignity) is through your Islam.<br \/>\nYour house has been created to get dirty. Your dishes have been created to break. Your world as you know it is going to come and go. We are not created to live in this luxury. We are created to live in this time of dajaliyat and be people of the cave.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lessons from Khidr (as) interaction with Moosa (as)<\/strong><br \/>\n1. Many things will happen around you that you don\u2019t understand, never ever question it. Don\u2019t ever think there\u2019s no reason for it. Because our intelligence is zero compared to Allah\u2019s knowledge.<br \/>\n2. If you want to protect your deen in the era of dajaliyat don\u2019t make a show of your deen. Salvation of Muslims in this world lies in having a boat with a hole. Sending our Islam to the world in a manner that when anyone has to look at it will not be threatened by it.<br \/>\n3. You will see a lot of blood. Allah has written a lot of good in that decision. Around the world you will see blood. After that blood a lot of good is going to happen. To protect Imaan from leaving the families in Shaam Allah has drawn a lot of blood. Allah is going to make a huge door of hidayat (guidance) open for them. Evident by the current war in Syria. A year ago Damascus and it\u2019s inhabitants were the most modern, western-influenced in the Arab lands, people were Muslim by name. Today every person there is a living mujahid. Allah is preparing the army of Imaam Mahdi as this is the land he will come from. A sign of his imminent arrival.<br \/>\n4.Your treasures will remain hidden beneath walls. Madressahs are happening in rooms\/garages. Taalim (learning and teaching) is happening in homes but with this effort, at the end, your Qur\u2019an will become a practical expression in your life.<br \/>\nIn conclusion: If you really want to understand what Is luxury then work for the aakhirah. As we live in this world don\u2019t fall in the world. Man was created to die.<br \/>\nMay Allah enable us to practice on what appears to be seemingly simple lessons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We often think that we living in a time still far away from the appearance of Dajjaal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":8680,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8679","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-c85-al-quran"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
