SPONGE, SOUP AND WATER FOR THE HEART/SOUL
- ISTI’G’FAR
- SALĀWATU ALA NABIY
- LA ILAHA ILA ALLAH
“Let ISTI’G’FAR (Seeking Forgiveness) be your sponge, be consistent with it in other to use it in scrubbing off your sins.
Let SALĀWATU ALA NABIY (Prayers and benedictions upon the Prophet ص) be your soup, be consistent in sending salutations, benedictions and prayers to the most beloved in other to purify your soul.
Finally, let the excellence and best of remembrance be your water to flourish and complete the process. As was reported in various authentic Hadith (Prophetic Narration)
LA ILAHA ILA ALLAH (There is nothing except ALLAH) be on your tongue always. Remember Him to benefit your soul when He remembers you in return as He has promised in His glorious book (Al-Qur’an).
Keep remembering Him so that you will be allowed to be in His presence and benefit.”
