5. My worthIn our Life Project journey we have talked about the self, paradise in the heart, the fitna, the vision etc. but there is something important in this journey beyond all these and this is our value. I know myself, I have the paradise, peace within my heart, I know the thorns in my way and I have a clear vision but I need to know...

What is my value, my worth?

Ma keemati? keemati fi kalbihi!!! – My heart - the value of the human is in the heart. This is the place of knowing Allah, of righteousness, of love, of istiana, of tawakul etc... The value of the human starts from the heart. The wickedness or evil of a person starts from the heart.

Salah hu Kalb -The righteousness of the heart There are two powers in the heart:Power of knowledge and recognition

Kuwati ilm wa tameez - power of the knowledge and recognition The heart in general and this is for everyone, is very sensitive - the heart recognises the right or wrong!!!Power of loveThe second power is the power of the will, of love. Consider these two powers. How can we tell how powerful or weak a person is? The more knowledge we have, the more powerful is the heart and the more ...

A strong believer is better than a weak believer

Strength from the knowledge and the will and determinationSalah hu kalb by ista an bi kuwati -The righteousness will come when you have the two powers together. We need to use these two powers together.1st power - is kamal I want to have a strong heart.We need to use these two powers

How can we use the power of knowledge?

Idraki haqi bi maarifatihiWhen you realise and understand the truth (not the falsehood) - here the power of the knowledge we need to know the truth and also the ability to distinguish between the truth and falsehood.We will find in order that a person be righteous his heart needs to be righteous and righteousness is through the power of the knowledge and will.Dua of Nabi saw:

الحق ارنا اللهم اجتنابه وارزقنا باطال الباطل وارنا اتباعه وارزقنا حقاAllahumma arinal haqqa haqqaw warzuqnat tiba’ah, wa arinal

batila batilaw warzuqnaj tinabahTranslation: O Allah! show us the truth as true, and inspire us to follow it. Show us falsehood as falsehood, and inspire us to abstain from it.

Differentiate between the right and wrongPower of the heartIn general Two sources - to know the truth and to be passionate about the truth!!!How will we get the power of the knowledge?We need to know the falsehood and differentiate - For example shirk is bad, Kibr is bad etc.. Power of the love and passionKamal istimal kuwata irada wa muhabataImagine what makes us strong - when we are passionate about what I know..In your heart we are seeking talaqati haqqi wa muhabatiAfter we know the truth and can did dentistry between truth and falsehood that do we need to do? We need to seek the truth be passionate about seeking the truth and to prefer the truth over falsehood.As siddik is one who knows the truth is passionate about it and seeks the truth.The more truthful.. The more righteous will be the heart.

Recognise the knowledge, know the falsehood, differentiate between the two and be passionate about it and prefer the truth over falsehood.That's why it is saidIn the other part of the dua:War zuqna ijtinaba - to be passionate about loving the truth. We want to abstain from the sins that's why.Arimal hawaale - realise the truthArimal zuqna - know the falsehoodWa arimal batila batila -prefer the truth

Fa man aramal haqq aI follow the truth - am passionate about the truth.Salah uh kalb to know the truth recognise and follow the truthAnyone having righteousness of heart ate mun a munn alaihiSifaat ul ladina an am ta alaihimPower of the knowledge - knowing the truth and Salah uh kalb The other two groups are:1) Those who don't know the truth. They know the falsehood.They are dwaleen. They don't have that power and are weak.Anyone who is misguided they are weak and the heart is misguided.The other group know the truth but they are not passionate about the truth. They are gair il magdubi alaihim and they have Allah's curse on them.That's why wa kad araIda tariqi Haq.When we look at ihdinas siraat ul mushtaq wen- May Allah give me the two powers May Allah give me the power to know the truth and May he swt guide me to be passionate about the truth.And then.... Righteousness of the heart is based on this.In sura asr - wa kasareenFrom Surah asr we find every human bring us in loss -,loser of the duniya and the akhiraat except the powerful ones- those who have the knowledge of the truth and the passion about knowing the truth.This is al amaliya irada.

Who is the winner?

The strong one!!! Who is the strong one? The one who has knowledge and the ability to know the truth!!! Otherwise he will be the loser - he will not be able to face the trials of the duniya and the akhiraat.La salah - there is no righteousness wa la kalb - without the heart and ila Wah sahi la sharika lahu..This is salu hu kalbThis heart is very sensitive yet at the same time it can elevate a person to viceroy high ranks or degrade / humiliate to the lowest level.

May Allah swt grant is the knowledge of the truth and to be passionate about it ameen

The consequences...If the heart believes what are the consequences?

Reflect:

It is the need of the heart which is more important than the need of the body.When the heart believes Allah will give ten karamath:
