Inspiring story of a lizard...

"WHEN A LIZARD CAN, WHY CAN'T WE?"

This is a STORY that happened in Japan .

In order to renovate the house, someone in Japan breaks open the wall.

Japanese houses normally have a hollow space between the wooden walls.

When tearing down the walls, he found that there was a lizard stuck there because a nail from outside hammered into one of its feet.

He sees this, feels pity, and at the same time curious, as when he checked the nail, it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was first built.

What happened?...............................!!!

The lizard has survived in such position for 10 years !

In a dark wall partition for 10 years without moving, it is impossible and mind-boggling.

Then he wondered how this lizard survived for 10 years!!! Without moving a single step - since its foot was nailed !

So he stopped his work and observed the lizard, what it has been doing, and what and how it has been eating.

Later, not knowing from where it came appears another lizard, with food in its mouth.

Ah! He was stunned and touched deeply.

For the lizard That was stuck by nail, another lizard has been feeding it for the past 10 years...

Imagine ! it has been doing that untiringly for 10 long years, without giving up hope on its partner.

Think. Would you do that for Your PARTNER ?

Think. Would you do it for Your MOTHER who brought you after a big struggle of nine long months ? Or for Your FATHER, FRIENDS, BROTHERS and SISTERS?

Imagine what a small creature can do that a creature blessed with a brilliant mind can't.

As information and communication technology advances, our access to information becomes faster and faster. But the Distance between human beings . . . is it getting closer as well?

"Please NEVER ABANDON your LOVED ONES
Never Say YOU Are Busy When They Really Need You" ....:)

"You May Have The Entire World At Your Feet.....
But You Might Be The Only World To Them"....:)

A Moment of Negligence might break the very Heart which loves you through all Odds..

Before you say something just remember -

"IT TAKES A MOMENT TO BREAK. BUT, AN ENTIRE TIME TO MAKE"

"TO SURVIVE USE YOUR BRAINS, BUT TO LIVE , USE YOUR HEART".

Being Patient Over The Death of Loved One's

                                                 

(Surat Al–Mulk Ch:67 V:2)

الَّذِي خَلَقَ الْمَوْتَ وَالْحَيَاةَ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْغَفُورُ

“ [He] who created death and life to test you [as to] which of you is best in deed - and He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving”

 (Surah Baqrah Ch:2 V:155)

وَلَنَبْلُوَنَّكُم بِشَيْءٍ مِّنَ الْخَوْفِ وَالْجُوعِ وَنَقْصٍ مِّنَ الْأَمْوَالِ وَالْأَنفُسِ وَالثَّمَرَاتِ وَبَشِّرِ الصَّابِرِينَ

“And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient”

Death of Beloved Ones 
If one suffers death of someone whom he dearly loved, then he should remember that our children, spouses, parents, friends, and other family members are but trusts from Allah (s.w.t). A wife is a trust to her husband while her husband is a trust to her. A child is a trust to his/her parents while the parents are a trust to the child. As these trusts provide us with comfort and support, Allah (s.w.t) tests us to see how we deal with them and how we take care of these trusts. He reserves the right to take back these trusts, and He does so when the term He sets for a trust expires. The Prophet (peace be upon him) consoled his daughter when her baby was sick as saying:

“Whatever Allah takes away or gives, belongs to Him, and everything has a fixed term (in this world)”.
(Sahih Al-Bukhari & Sahih Al-Muslim)

Therefore, one should not show despair or displeasure at Allah (swt) but remain calm and patient even at the death of his or her dearest one. 

It’s natural to go down in the dumps over a death of your loved one, however we need to have control over ourselves, Islam tells us that we muslims should never lose faith in Allah (s.w.t). If there is a difficult moment in life then instead of weeping over it all our life we should turn our attention towards Allah (s.w.t) and start praying more than before, Surely Allah (s.w.t) will give us the strength to overcome our sadness. We muslims start crying over almost every loss that we have to face,  we should always remember that this world belongs to Allah (s.w.t) and whatever happens it’s as per Allah’s will and whatever Our Lord has decided for us it’s for our own good we just need to have a strong faith. This world is merely a test for us.

True believers have nothing to fear in the valley of death; they have nothing to fear in the grave; they have nothing to fear in the world beyond.

 

(Sahih Al-Bukhari)

Volume 7, Book 70, Number 545:
Narrated by Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri and Abu Huraira:

The Prophet said, "No fatigue, nor disease, nor sorrow, nor sadness, nor hurt, nor distress befalls a Muslim, even if it were the prick he receives from a thorn, but that Allah expiates some of his sins for that."

(Sahih Al-Bukhari)
Volume 7, Book 70, Number 550:

Narrated by 'Abdullah:

I visited the Prophet during his ailments and he was suffering from a high fever. I said, "You have a high fever. Is it because you will have a double reward for it?" He said, "Yes, for no Muslim is afflicted with any harm but that Allah will remove his sins as the leaves of a tree fall down."
