"Walk By Faith, Not Just By Sight". by abat4real37(f): 6:43am On Feb 02, 2018
A father takes his son into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.

He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it.

He cannot cry out for help to anyone.Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him . Perhaps even some human might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and trees and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man!

Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him. He had been at watch the entire night, protecting his son from harm.

This is exactly the way it is between us and Allah SWA..He is watching over us, He is behind you, He is above you, He is beneath you, and ahead of you.. He is the all knowing, the protector, the giver and the taker. The sustainer, The advancer, the Delayer, The most Generous, The benefactor, The Doer of good, The concealer of sin, The supreme Judge, The curer, The master, The one who has no Equal, The all modest, The good and pure one, The giver, The beautiful, The boundless, The all Embracing, The lord, The most gracious, The most merciful, The ever living, He is the first, The Last. The only one, the one and only,
Allah is He the glorified and exalted Be He.

Our duty is reach out to Him !!!.

Moral of the story:

Just because you can't see Allah SWA, doesn't mean He is not there. Be reminded that He is every thing and more mention above

Hmmmm....

Wanted to make a meaningful comment about how Christianity and Islam are so alike; even give a blow-by-blow dissertation on the fact that we serve the same God / Allah, but in different ways.

Until I clicked reply, saw the silly oath, got pissed and forgot all my points.
