Often times I asked myself... "what should I do to better my relationship with my creator "
Am sure you all have asked yourself this question at one point.
It was hard,I'd cry ,feel alone at times but the fact that i believe in Him kept me going. I wanted to get to know Him first i mean how could i expect to build a strong relationship with someone i barely know?
I started to get to know Him by spending time learning and reflecting on His Names....
Like He is Al-Khaliq, The One who created me and anything i may desire. He is One who is able to do anything, no matter how impossible it might seem to our limited perception and this thought made me tear up.
Then I read the Quran and I felt how it was purifying my heart and bring about change inside of me.
If am asked if I ever want my heart to fall back into it's old state...? I'd definitely never want my connection with my creator to be strained . It is literally the most important nourishment for my heart. And I feel sad and pity when someone asks if Allah is really there.
One day a friend of mine curiously asked .....
"Why does Allah let natural disasters happen?"
It took me minutes to think and i told her this ; all suffering are part of Allah's trial for testing us on how to react and all what we have to do is to remain steadfast and trust Him . And we both agreed and came into a conclusion that suffering sometimes leads to ease and that Allah will never abandon us no matter what.
He is Al- Wadood....He loves us more than we can ever imagine
I hope that you're more than happy that islam is your Deen and I pray that this words will inspire you and help you to strengthen your relationship with Allah.
