Ive been nominated by Raiiq and Nusrat apu for this contest where we are supposed to share five of our favorite ayahs from the Quran and tag our friends in. It is literally impossible for me to share a selected 5 from a book where every single letter is a miracle.. but Ill try share some ayahs that have touched me deeply every single time I read them, and stayed with me. 1. When the sky cracks, obeying its Lord as it rightly must, when the earth is levelled out, casts out its contents, and becomes empty, obeying its Lord as it rightly must, you humans, toiling laboriously towards your Lord, will meet Him: whoever is given his record in his right hand will have an easy reckoning and return to his people well pleased, but whoever is given his record from behind his back will cry out for destruction - he will burn in the blazing Fire. He thought he would never return to his Lord - indeed He will! *His Lord was watching him*. [84: 1-15] 2. If We had sent down this Quran upon a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and coming apart from fear of Allah . And these examples We present to the people that perhaps they will give thought. [59:21] - if a mountain would have been humbled and come apart due to the tremendous nature of the Quran, what mountain has crept up in my heart? 3. Is it not time that the hearts of those who claim to believe tremble at the remembrance of God, and what We have revealed of the truth? And let them not be like those who were given the Scripture before- a long period passed over them, so their hearts hardened; and many of them are defiantly disobedient. [57:16] - what has happened to my heart that it struggles to be moved by the remembrance of God? 4. When the sky breaks, when the stars are scattered, when the seas burst forth, when graves turn inside out: each soul will know what it has done and what it has left UNDONE. You human being, what has *lured* you away from your generous Lord? [82: 1-7] 5. Say, O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful. [39:53] - so I repent to Allah and sincerely ask Him to guide me to what is pleasing to Him. And when He guides, I follow the guidance. The road to salvation- its that easy. When My slaves ask you about Me, I am most certainly Near. I respond to the call of the caller when he calls upon Me. So let them respond to Me [by obedience] and believe in Me that they may be [rightly] guided. [2:186] - how can I ever be enough grateful for a Lord like this? And He is Oft-Forgiving, Excessively Loving [Quran 85:14]
