🍃السلام عليكم🍃

✨In the name of Allah, The Beneficent The Most Merciful✨

I greet you in this Islamic book;

As Salamu Aleykum Wa rahmatoulla Wa Baraqatuhu; I welcome you again to the program in which  we   continue to look at certain Islamic issues with some stories,  hoping   that we'd all seek deep knowledge Insha'Allah.

Today I'll share with you guys a beautiful story of a righteous woman, a sister, masha'Allah, may Allah grant her Jannah Insha'Allah.

This story right here, it's a true story told by Sheikh Abdul Mohsen Al Ahmad. This is the story of a sister that had so much deen, she was so pious masha'Allah.

May Allah (SWT) makes us among these righteous women. آمني ❣️

And the story goes like this, he says: "After performing Salatul-Maghrib, she put her makeup, wore her beautiful white dress, and prepare herself for her wedding party. Then she heard the Adhan of Isha'a and she realized that she broke her wudu; so she told her mother."

She says: "Ummi, I have to go make wudu and pray Isha'a"

Then her mother got shocked, she replies: "Are you crazy?! The guests are waiting for you to see you! What about your makeup? It will be all washed away by water."

Her mother continues: "I'm your mother and I order you not to perform Salah right now. Wallahi (I swear by Allah) if you wudu now, I'll be angry at you"!

Then her daughter replies and says: "Wallahi (I swear by Allah), I won't go out from here until I perform my salatul-Isha'a"

Then her mother says: "What would our guests say about you when you show up in your wedding party without makeup? You won't be beautiful in their eyes, and they'll make fun of you"!

Then her daughter asks with a smile and says: "أم... أم ... (mother), are you worried because I won't be beautiful in the eyes of the creations?"

Her daughter continues: "What about my Creator? I am worried because if I miss my salah, I won't be beautiful in his eyes"!

The parents must know that there's no obedience to any creature and disobedience to the Creator which is Allah Azzawajal

And so she started making wudu and all her makeup was washed away, but she didn't care. Then she began her salah and then at the moment she bowed down to make sujood ...

Oh man, Malik-al-mawt came and visited her and took her soul.

Malik-al-mawt, the Angel of death came and took her while she was in sujood. Ya Allah how beautiful is this death, Subhana'Allah.

And Insha'Allah when this sister would be resurrected on the day of Judgment, she will meet Allah Azzawajal while sitting in Sujood, Subhana'Allah.

This is a very short story but yet very beautiful. And I want this story to serve you, men as women. But I'm especially talking to the sisters of the ummah, that we should all take exemple from this righteous sister.When Allah (SWT) Loves a servant, He beautifies their death. And keep in mind that no matter how pretty her makeup was, no matter how great the wedding party was, when she had heard the Adhan. She stopped everything and went to perform her salah.

This is the example we should take from this story. No matter what you do, where you are and no matter how many people are waiting for you, whenever you hear the Adhan, stop anything that you do and go anwser the call of Allah. Because Allah (SWT) is calling you and you need to anwser to His calls.

Don't we all expect a beautiful death? Then we shall every single say do our best to please our Rabb, to please our Lord, and to make Him be satisfied with us.

☺️As Salamu Aleykum.
