Lessons Learnt:

And We have enjoined upon man [care] for his parents. His mother carried him, [increasing her] in weakness upon weakness, and his weaning is in two years.

(14) But if they endeavor to make you associate with Me that of which you have no knowledge, do not obey them but accompany them in [this] world with appropriate kindness and follow the way of those who turn back to Me [in repentance]. Then to Me will be your return, and I will inform you about what you used to do. (15)

O Messenger of Allah, tell me something about Islam which I could not ask anyone about, except you.”

The Prophet answered:“ Say: I believe in Allah, and then stand firm and steadfast.”

(Imam Nawawi`s 40 Hadith: Hadith No.21)


23

Indeed, those who have said, "Our Lord is Allah" and then remained on a right course - the angels will descend upon them, [saying], "Do not fear and do not grieve but receive good tidings of Paradise, which you were promised. (30)

إن> ال>ذين قالوا ربـcنا ا(> ثم> اسـتقاموا تـتـنز>ل عليهم ا\oئكة أW> تخافوا وW تحزنوا وأبشروا بالجـن>ة ال>تي كـنـتم توعدون

We were your allies in the worldly life and in the Hereafter. And you will have therein whatever your souls desire, and you will have therein whatever you request. (31) As accommodation from a [Lord who is] Forgiving and Merciful." (32)

(٣٣)

(٣٤)And not equal are the good deed and the bad. Repel [evil] by that [deed] which is better; and thereupon the one whom between you and him is enmity [will become] as though he was a devoted friend. (34)


25

But none is granted it except those who are patient, and none is granted it except one having a great portion [of good]. (35)
