Finders Keepers Givers

Finders Keepers
A wise woman who was traveling in the mountains found a precious stone in a stream. The next day she met another traveler who was hungry, and the wise woman opened her bag to share her food. The hungry traveler saw the precious stone & asked the woman to give it to him. She did so without hesitation. The traveler left, rejoicing his good fortune. He knew the stone was worth enough to give him security for a lifetime. But a few days later he came back to return the stone to the wise woman. “I’ve been thinking,” He said, “I know how valuable the stone is, but I give it back in the hope that you can give me something even more precious: Give me what you have within you that enabled you to give me the stone.”

Al-Baqara (The Cow) > [2:264]
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ لاَ تُبْطِلُواْ صَدَقَاتِكُم بِالْمَنِّ وَالأذَى كَالَّذِي يُنفِقُ مَالَهُ رِئَاء النَّاسِ وَلاَ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ فَمَثَلُهُ كَمَثَلِ صَفْوَانٍ عَلَيْهِ تُرَابٌ فَأَصَابَهُ وَابِلٌ فَتَرَكَهُ صَلْدًا لاَّ يَقْدِرُونَ عَلَى شَيْءٍ مِّمَّا كَسَبُواْ وَاللّهُ لاَ يَهْدِي الْقَوْمَ الْكَافِرِينَ
O you who believe! Do not render in vain your Sadaqah (charity) by reminders of your generosity or by injury, like him who spends his wealth to be seen of men, and he does not believe in Allâh, nor in the Last Day. His likeness is the likeness of a smooth rock on which is a little dust; on it falls heavy rain which leaves it bare. They are not able to do anything with what they have earned. And Allâh does not guide the disbelieving people.

Teri Namaz Be Suroor

Tera Imam Be Huzoor, Teri Namaz Be Suroor Aesi Namaz Se Guzr, Aese Imam Se Guzr Your imam is unabsorbed, Your prayer is uninspired, Forsake an imam like him, forsake a prayer like this Badal Ke Bhais Phir Ate Hain Har Zamane Mein Agarche Peer Hai Adam, Jawan Hai Laat-e-Manaat In different garbs and various masks the idols reappear in every age: They e’er retain their youth and gloss though man has grown old on this stage. Ye Aik Sajda Jise Tu Garan Samajhta Hai Hazar Sajde Se Deta Hai Admi Ko Nijat! Prostration ’fore God you presume as irksome, tedious, burden great; But mind, this homage sets you free from bonds of men, of might who prate! Kaha Mujahid-e-Turki Ne Mujh Se Baad-e-Namaz Taweel Sajda Hain Kyun Iss Qadar Tumhare Imam ‘Why do your priests,’ said to me after prayers A Turkish hero of the faith, ‘drag out their genuflexions so?’ Woh Saada Mard-e-Mujahid, Woh Momin-e-Azad Khabar Na Thi Use Kya Cheez Hai Namaz-e-Ghulam —He little knew, that free‐born Muslim, that plain warrior,...

Sharf e Insan

الإمام الحسن المجتبى (عليه السلام) اے فرزند آدم!کون ہے جو تیرے جیسا ہو کہ تیرا پروردگار تیرے سے تنہائی میں باتیں کرتا ہے. جب بھی تو اُس کے حضور میں حاضر ہونا چاہتاہے، تو وضوء کرکے اُس کے حضور میں کھڑا ہو جاتا ہے کہ اُس نے تیرے اور اپنے درمیان کوئی حجاب یا دربان قرار نہیں دیئے. تو اُس کے حضور اپنے غموں اور تہیدستی و ناداری کی شکایت کرتا ہے ، اپنی حاجتوں کو طلب کرتا ہے اور اپنے امور میں مدد مانگتا ہے. Qaf 50:16 وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ وَنَعْلَمُ مَا تُوَسْوِسُ بِهِ نَفْسُهُ وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيدِ اور ہم ہی نے انسان کو پیدا کیا ہے اور جو خیالات اس کے دل میں گزرتے ہیں ہم ان کو جانتے ہیں۔ اور ہم اس کی رگ جان سے بھی اس سے زیادہ قریب ہیں And indeed We have created man, and We know what his ownself whispers to him. And We are nearer to him than his jugular vein. Al-Baqara (The Cow) 2:186 وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ الدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُواْ لِي وَلْيُؤْمِنُواْ بِي لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ اور (اے پیغمبر) جب...
