    Establishment on Earth Tamkeen

    Allah the Most high, says,

    Allah has promised, to those among you who believe and work righteous deeds,

    that He will, of a surety, grant them in the land, inheritance (of power), as He

    granted it to those before them; that He will establish in authority their religion, the

    one which He has chosen for them and that He will change (their state), after the

    fear in which they (lived), to one of security and peace: They will worship Me (alone)

    and not associate any partner with Me. If any do reject Faith after this, they are

    rebellious and wicked.

    [Al Quran 24:55]

    Rasullulah(saw) said in a hadith thatAllah has shown me the entire Earth and told

    me the kingdom of my nation will reach all of it

    So the question is not if Islam will be victorious or not. That has been promised and

    will happen. But rather the question is that are we going to play a role in that or not.

    The group who bring Islam back will be the ones who resemble the companions the

    most. Because the Muslims who came after the Sahaabah have always lived under

    Islamic rule, now the Muslims have the golden opportunity of doing what the

    Sahaabah did, i.e. re-establishing Islam and Islamic rule.

    Rasullulah(saw) said in another hadith that,I wish that I could meet my brothers,

    so the Sahaabah said arent we your brothers, so Rasul(saw) said no, you are my

    Companions, but my brothers are going to be people who will come at the end of

    time, and one of them would wish that they could see me, even if it would cost them

    their wealth and their families.Meaning a glimpse of Rasullullah(saw) for them would

    be worth more than anything in the world.

    So such will be the people who will bring Islam back, that Rasullullah(saw) referred

    to them as brothers. This honour will be for them because of their intense love for

    Allah, their love for the Prophet(saw), and for Islam, and their total obedience to the

    commands of Allah and their following the sunnah.

    A good life Hayaatan tayyibah

    Allah the Most high, says,

    Whoever works righteousness, man or woman, and has Faith, verily, to him will We

    give a new Life, a life that is good and pure and We will bestow on such their reward

    according to the best of their actions.

    [Al Quran 16:97]

    The believers have a very good life, dont be fooled by what you see. For sometimes

    what you see is not what you get. Sometimes you can see a wealthy disbeliever who

    has the world in his hands, but you cant see what is going on in the inside, and he

    doesnt know what the believers are feeling because he has never felt it. He feels

    happy with what he has and doesnt know that there is something much better than

    that.

    Ibn Taymiyah (May Allah have mercy on him) saidIf the kings knew the happiness

    and pleasure that we feel in our hearts, they would come and try to take it away

    from us with the tips of their swords.

    But whosoever turns away from My Message, verily for him is a very distressful

    life.[Al Quran 20:124]

    Be assured anyone not on the true path is having a life of misery even if you think

    otherwise. Whilst the believers who are apparently going through suffering, Allah is

    giving them a feeling in their heart that could not be bought with the wealth of this

    Dunya.

    Because of the difficulty the believers go through and the patience they show Allah

    gives them something in their hearts that cannot be described with words.

    Again, if you are not feeling this, then there is something wrong with the iman

    (faith).

    Protection

    Allah the Most high, says,

    Verily Allah will defend (from ill) those who believe, verily, Allah loves not any that

    is a traitor to faith or shows ingratitude.

    [Al Quran 22:38]

    Allah will protect the believers

    If you are a believer then Allah will protect you. This is the promise of Allah. If

    anybody doesnt get this, then that means there is something wrong with the iman

    (faith).

    Allah will never grant the disbelievers a way over the

    believers

    Allah the Most high, says,

    And never will Allah grant to the unbelievers a way (to triumph) over the

    believers[Al Quran 4:141]

    Rasullulah (saw) mentions in a hadith thatIslam is always higher and nothing goes

    above it.Meaning nothing can overpower Islam.

    So if we dont see this happening, and we see the disbelievers having an upper hand

    over the believers, then we shouldnt question the promise of Allah, but rather we

    should question ourselves and our Iman (faith). Are we behaving like true believers,

    or is the opposite true.

    Deliverance from darkness into lightAllah the Most high, says,

    Allah is the Protector of those who have faith; from the depths of darkness He will

    lead them forth into light. Of those who reject faith the patrons are the evil ones,

    from light they will lead them forth into the depths of darkness. They will be

    companions of the fire, to dwell therein (For ever).

    [Al Quran 2:257]

    Allah will deliver the believers from the darkness of disbelief, doubt and hesitation

    into the light of Islam, which is the plain, clear and unequivocal truth.

    When a person is granted the light of Islam, Allah enables such a person to

    differentiate between good and evil, truth and falsehood, right and wrong. Such a

    person lives their life according to the will and command of Allah, because Allah has

    enabled them to realise the true purpose and reality of this life.

    So such a person gives preference to the hereafter, which is everlasting, over this

    world, which is transitory and temporary and will soon perish.

    Those whose hearts are veiled in darkness do not realise this, and so spend their

    lives in disbelief and disobedience.

    Abdus Salaam (a scholar of the past) (May Allah have mercy upon him) once went to

    visit a tyrant, with his students. So at first he started to speak softly, but then his

    voice started becoming louder and louder and his voice was becoming harsher and

    harsher, and he started pointing towards this tyrant. So his students started

    wrapping up their cloaks, because they were expecting that at anytime a sword will

    cut off his head, because of the way he was speaking to this tyrant. When he came

    out, his students went to him and said, what have you done, how could you speak to

    him like that. He said that when I imagined the greatness of Allah, then this tyrant

    became in front of me smaller than a cat.

    This happened when he put things into perspective

    As a believer you could go through situations where you have fear, because fear is a

    natural human instinct, however when iman sinks into the heart it eliminates fear. So

    you might go through that natural feeling of fear, but you will overcome it thorough

    your iman.

    To those who believe and do deeds of righteousness has Allah promised forgiveness

    and a great reward

    [Al Quran 5:9]

    Every single person is in need of the forgiveness of Allah. One of Allahs attributes is

    that he is the Most Forgiving. So Allah will forgive the believers as long as they

    repent to Allah and seek His forgiveness.

    As Allah the Most high, also says

    O my Servants who have transgressed against their souls. Despair not of the Mercy

    of Allah. for Allah forgives all sins, for He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

    [Al Quran 39:53]

    Promise 17 of 25

    Peace and security

    Allah the Most high, says,

    It is those who believe and confuse not their beliefs with wrong that are (truly) in

    security, for they are on (right) guidance.

    [Al Quran 6:82]

    Only Allah can give peace.People claim to have the solution to bringing peace to the heart, but only Allah has

    the solution.

    This security can be in different forms. For instance in the battle of Badr at the time

    of Rasullulah(Saw), where the Muslim army was 300 men and they were facing an

    army of 1000 strong. So at such a moment when you are outnumbered there is

    room for anxiety, but Allah at that time brought down upon them the Muslims

    sakeenah (serenity), and sent rain to cool them and to make the ground firm under

    their feet. Then a strange thing happened, when suddenly they all fell asleep, When

    He encompassed you all with slumber as a source of Peace from Him.[Al Quran].

    Abdullah bin Saud (May Allah have mercy upon him) says.Slumber during fighting

    is a source of peace from Allah (swt), and slumber during Salaah is from shaitaan.

    So the companions of Rasullulah (saw) were facing death before them, yet they fell

    asleep. Imagine and Look at the tranquillity that came to them from Allah, this is

    something that can only come from Allah. No worldly preparation, no training,

    nothing can prepare one for that. This is from Allah. The gift is from Him(swt).

    Blessings Barakah

    Allah the Most high, says,

    If the people of the towns had but believed and feared Allah, we should indeed have

    opened out to them (all kinds of) blessings from heaven and earth, but they rejected

    (the truth), and We brought them to book for their misdeeds.

    [Al Quran 7:96]

    We should not believe in Allah and His messenger(saw) in order to seek the blessings

    of this world, rather we should seek the blessings of the hereafter.

    However at times Allah will bless this Ummah. Some of that time has already passed,

    and some is still to come, i.e. when Isa (AS) reappears.

    Sins also have an effect on blessings. An individual who sins can be deprived of

    many blessings in his life. Collectively in this world, if the earth has sins, i.e. the sins

    of the inhabitants, then it takes away the barakah. However when there is iman and

    righteousness then there is barakah. At the time of Isa(AS) there will be so much

    barakah.

    And this is what we need most. Just because we are believers, it doesnt mean that

    we dont need guidance. We need guidance in every moment of our lives.

    The most frequent dua that one makes is in Surah Al-fatihah Oh Allah guide us to

    Allah, the Most High says,

    Allah will establish in strength those who believe, with the word that stands firm, in

    this world and in the Hereafter; but Allah will leave, to stray, those who do wrong,

    and Allah does what He wills.

    [Al Quran 14:27]

    Allah will give you steadfastness, because you will need this for what is coming. You

    wouldnt be able to cope with the trials that await you if you are believers. You will

    need thibaat (steadfastness and firmness)

    Its very easy to remain on the straight path at this moment. But will we have the

    consistency to stay on it for years, without diverting.

    Rasul(saw) would often make the following duaOh the one who overturns the

    hearts make our hearts steadfast upon your religion

    The hearts can easily flip and turn, even the word for heart in Arabic, Qalb, comes

    from the word taqqalab which means overturning, flipping.

    May Allah make all of our hearts steadfast upon His religion ameen.

    Allah, the Most High says,

    No authority has he (i.e. Shaitaan) over those who believe and put their trust in

    their Lord.

    [Al Quran 16:99]

    Put your trust in Allah and Allah will protect you from Shaitaan.

    Iblis (Shaitaan) is very experienced. He is stronger than us, we cant defeat him

    except with the help of Allah.

    Allah has given us many weapons to defeat the Shaitaan. A believer uses these

    weapons that Allah has given him.

    For instance Ayat-ul-Kursi which is recited before going to sleep and on other

    occasions, the tawwudh (words of seeking protection from Shaitaan), the Daily

    adhkaar (Prayers and invocations) for morning and evening from the ahadeeth, the

    prayer before entering the lavatory etc are all weapons that Allah has given to the

    believers as a protection against the Shayateen (army of devils), both from amongst

    the Jinn and from amongst Mankind.

    Verily, those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, the Most Gracious will

    [Al Quran 19:96]

    The commentators of the Quran say that, if you draw your heart closer to Allah,

    then Allah will draw the hearts of the believers closer to you.

    Another saying if you displease Allah by pleasing the creation, then Allah will be

    displeased with you and will make the creation also displeased with you and if you

    please Allah by displeasing the creation, then Allah will be pleased with you and will

    also make the creation pleased with you.

    This is what we should want, for the hearts of the believers to love us.

    So love Allah and Allah will make the servants of Allah love you.

    This love is only from the sincere believers, but such love is not to be expected from

    the disbelievers and from the insincere believers.

    There is no one who is free from sin. We are all contaminated, every one of us, so

    how can we wash away these sins. Allah promises that with the believers he shall

    wash away their sins.

    This is done through the following ways: Taubah (Repentance), Istigfaar (seeking

    forgiveness), illness wipes away sins if borne patiently, hardship, trials and

    tribulations etc

    There must be a cleaning process. There are some people that Allah loves them so

    much. Allah wants to show His favour on them. So Allah will make some of their sins

    in this world hidden and will make the same sins hidden in the hereafter. Rasul(saw)

    said a man will be brought on the day of judgement and his knees will be shaking ,

    his book of deeds will be brought before him, he knew what he did and he will go

    through the book and will see a lot of sins, but he will see that some big sins have

    been left out. So he will say oh Allah there are some sins I dont see here, Allah(swt)

    will say oh my servant I concealed them for you in the World. So I conceal them for

    you today.

    Allah will make a sitr (covering and veil over sins) on the believer as long as the

    believer makes sitr on himself. So if you have committed a mistake or sin, then seek

    repentance from Allah, make istigfaar and move on. As long as it is done with

    sincerity Allah is willing to erase anything.

    When we get our belief right, then Allah will grant us victory.

    However we should be patient, as the believers will go through many tests before

    victory is granted.

    Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) would ask the sahaabah what suffering they

    had gone through, so a particular sahaabi uncovered his back and showed it to him.

    Umar said I have never seen a back like this, what happened to you. He said the

    musrikeen of Quraish would burn rocks over fire for a long time and then they would

    throw me on my naked back over these rocks, so my flesh would burn and I would

    smell my back burning, so it left some black deep holes in his back.

    What have we gone through? We live comfortable lives. We have gone through

    nothing compared to what the sahaabah went through, and also what some muslims

    are going through today.

    Victory of Allah is on its way, this is the promise of Allah. If it doesnt happen in our

    lifetime it will happen in our childrens lifetime, but it will happen.

    Promise 5 of 25

    The protection and friendship of Allah

    Allah, the Most High says,

    Without doubt, amongst men, the nearest of kin to Ibrahim, are those who follow

    him, as are also this Messenger and those who believe: And Allah is the Wali

    [protecting friend] of those who have faith.

    [Al Quran 3:68]

    Wali means a friend, a protector. So Allah is saying that He is the Wali of the

    believers.

    So a believer doesnt need anyone else besides Allah, because if Allah is your Wali,

    then who else do you need.

    Allahu Akbar!!!

    The grace and kindness of Allah Fadl

    Allah, the Most High, says,

    for Allah is full of grace to those who believe.

    [Al Quran 3:152]

    The grace of Allah is vast. Allah(swt) is more graceful to us than we deserve. At

    times we want something from Allah, yet Allah gives us more. This is the grace and

    kindness of Allah upon the believers.

    15/17

    When Allah says thatAllah is with the believers, it means that the believers dont

    need anyone else.

    Rasullulah(saw) has saidBe mindful of Allah, and Allah will protect you. Be mindful

    of Allah, and you will find Him before you.

    Allah will be with us and will give us according to what we are doing, i.e. our actions

    and our deeds.

    Promise 2 of 25

    Light Noor

    Allah, the Most High, says:

    One Day shall you see the believing men and the believing women, how their Light

    runs forward before them and by their right hands: (their greeting will be): Good

    News for you this Day, gardens beneath which flow rivers, to dwell therein for

    forever. This is indeed the highest Achievement

    [Al Quran 57:12]

    On the Day of Judgement it will be dark and we will be asked to cross over a bridge

    that is thinner than hair and sharper than a razor blade, and there will be no light, so

    it will be impossible unless were given light by Allah. This light that Allah will give us,

    the power of the light, will depend on how much light was in our heart in the Dunya.

    So this light which is in the heart, which is not a physical light, but a spiritual light,

    will come on the Day of Judgement in a physical form.

    Depending on how much Iman (faith and belief) was in the heart. Iman will come on

    the Day of Judgement in the form of light. Some people will have so much light that

    they run over the bridge so fast like a breeze. While some run. Some walk, some will

    take a step then stop until they get their light back again. Some will start but will not

    reach the end because of insufficient light.

    16/17

    Give glad tidings to those who believe and work righteousness, that their portion is

    Gardens, beneath which rivers flow. Every time they are fed with fruits therein, they

    say: Why, this is what we were fed with before, for they are given things in

    similitude; and they have therein companions pure (and holy), and they abide

    therein (for ever).

    [Al Quran 2:25]

    This promise of Allah is sufficient. One does not even need to think of the other 24

    promises, as this promise of Paradise is sufficient and is in fact more than what we

    deserve.

    In Jannah are things an eye hasnt seen, the ear hasnt heard, the mind has not

    imagined and language cannot express.

    However one has to earn this, as the product of Allah, i.e. Paradise is not cheap.

    25 promises from Allah to the believersPublished June 3, 200825 promises ,Quran13 CommentsTags: 25 promises,Allah,anwar al-awlaki, islam,promise,Quran

    25 promises from Allah to the believers

    Taken from the lecture of Imam Anwar al-Awlaki (hafidhullah) titledThe 25

    promises from Allah to the believers.

    Part 1 : Part 2

    InshaAllah for the next 25 reminders I will send out every day as a reminder 1

    promise from the 25 promises mentioned by Imam Anwar al-Awlaki in his lecture.

    All the explanations are taken from the talk and are by Imam Anwar al-Awlaki. I may

    have reconstructed some sentences in order to make them grammatically correct

    and legible to read, as transcribing from a spoken lecture doesnt always translate

    into correct written English.

    Imam Anwar al-Awlaki mentions in the introduction of this lecture, that these are the

    promises of Allah that He(swt) promises to the believers. There may be more

    promises that Allah gives to the Patient ones, or the God-Fearing ones or the

    Grateful ones etc But these 25 promises are to the believers (Al-Muiminoon).

    It should be borne in mind that when Allah promises something, then Allah(swt)

    means it, and that thing will happen, as Allah(swt) says (such is) the promise of Allah,

    17/17

    never does Allah fail in His promise[Al Quran 39:20] and in another verse The promise of

    Allah is true, and He is Exalted in Power, Wise.[Al Quran 31:9]

    So if anybody does not see these promises being fulfilled in their life, either now or in

    the future, then one should not question the promise of Allah, rather one should

    question ones own iman (faith). The problem is not with the promise of Allah but the

    problem is with iman.
