The Desert Saga

When you travel by your own vehicle even at the speeds of 120 or 130 you do not see civilization for hours. How fast can you travel with a camel? Even a short journey would take two weeks. This is the desert in which Companions (RA) sweated it out to spread the message of Islam.

Short Age, Long Deeds

Amongst Elders Khwaja Baqi Billah (RA) got very short age. But biggest of scholars of his time turned to him. Amongst scholars it was Maulana Abdul Hayi of Firangi Mahal who got only 39 years of age but he wrote about a hundred books. This is a fete that will survive till the end times.

Way of Hazrat Umar (RA)

The Way Allah (SWT) Deals With Us

When Allah (SWT) wants to raise someone's stature and he does not have good deeds in that proportion then Allah (SWT) gets him involved in some problem. Allah (SWT) got every Messenger (AS) in disease.

Aspects of Disease

A disease is boon as well as a curse. It is a boon for a Believer. If a disease creates a feeling of displeasure in heart then assume that it is a punishment. If your heart is agreeable with the Will of Allah (SWT) then it is a boon.
