Life.......is it tough?
Have you ever ever ever wonder what does surah Al-Fatiha means? every word? hmm i manage to get the english translation but mind you, the meaning of the translated words are totally different from the original arabic meanings... :)Al-Fatiha simply means the Opening...Now you know why read Al-Fatiha first before any other surahs? :)
Al-Fatiha 7 verses The Opening
1
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
2
Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the worlds;
3
Most Gracious, Most Merciful;
4
Master of the Day of Judgment.
5
You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help (for each and everything).
6
Show us the straight way,
7
The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace , not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger, nor of those who went astray.
Wow...nice right? ok the next time you recite, try and recall the meanings....i can assure you if you are sincere insyaAllah you will have a good experience doing your prayers...Ameen :)
I have 1 more....Now every now and then we complained that we have problems here,problems there....have you ever wonder why is there such a thing called "problem"?
haha....after learning that there is 1 of the surah, i realised that problems are to there to guide us, guide us to the Right path....that is if we choose to go to the Right path...take a look at surah Al-Balad...By the way, Al-Balad means the City....and if i'm not wrong, this surah is referring to the city of Mekkah...
1
Nay! I swear by this city.
2
And you shall be made free from obligation in this city--
3
And the begetter and whom he begot.
4
Certainly We have created man to be in distress.
5
Does he think that no one has power over him?
It's evident doesn't it? so? get on our feet and start solving problems pro-actively!!!! :)
salaam.... :)
