A true Story that Happened in EGYPT ..MUST READ




A True story that happened in Egypt

A young girl in her 20s was born in a Muslim family but was far away from deen and missed a lot of prayers and didn't wear hijab. She was from a good family and everything was working out for her. One day, she fell sick. On visiting the hospital, the doctor ran some tests and informed her that she had terminal cancer (may Allāh protect all of us) and had two months to live. She said, “Since I am going to die, what can I do?” She started praying and fasting and giving charity. She started wearing the hijab and praying more. SubḥānAllāh one, two, and three months passed and she started feeling better. She went to the same doctor. He ran the same tests and said, “Are you the same person? There is no trace of cancer whatsoever! Where did you go? What did you do? Who treated you?” She said, “When I started being obedient to Allāh, I started praying in the beginning and would put my hand on the cancer and make du'ā' to Allāh sincerely to cure me. I started fasting and would break my fast and ask Allāh to cure me. I started giving charity and wearing hijab. Then I tasted the sweetness of obedience and the pleasure of having khush'oo in ṣalāh. I changed my du'ā' and started then making du'ā' to Allāh to cure me so I can worship Him more and not so that I can go back to the mall. I was sorry I lived 20 years and didn't know what I was missing. I asked Allāh to allow me to live so I can live in this Jannah of this life.”

TOUCHING STORY , A student in one of the universities.........



A young man, a student in one of the universities, was one day taking a walk with a Professor, who was commonly called the student's friend, from his kindness to those who waited on his instructions.

As they went along,they saw lying in t
he path a pair of old shoes, which they supposed to belong to a poor man who was employed in a field close by,and who had nearly finished his day's work.

The student turned to the professor, saying: "Let us play the man a trick: we will hide his shoes, and conceal ourselves behind those bushes, and wait to see his perplexity when he cannot find them."

"My young friend," answered the professor, "we should never amuse ourselves at the expense of the poor. But you are rich, and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by means of this poor man. Put a coin in each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how this affects him."

The student did so and they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes.

While putting on his coat he slipped his foot into one of his shoes, but feeling something hard, he stooped down to feel what it was, and found the coin. Astonishment and wonder were seen upon his countenance. He gazed upon the coin, turned it around, and looked at it again and again.

He then looked around him on all sides, but no person was to be seen. He now put the money into his pocket, and proceeded to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin.

His feelings overcame him; he fell upon his knees, looked up to the heavens and uttered aloud a fervent thanksgiving in which he spoke of his wife who was sick and helpless, and his children without bread, whom this timely bounty, from some unknown hand,would save from perishing.

The student stood there deeply affected, and his eyes filled with tears. "Now," said the professor, are you not much better pleased than if you had played your intended trick?"

The youth replied, "You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget. I feel now the truth of these words, which I never understood before: "It's more blessed to give than to receive."

Abdullah bin Abbas (radi Allahu anhu) reported that the Prophet (sallAllahu alaiyhi wassallam) said that encouraging good, prohibiting evil, lifting the burden of the weak person and removing an offensive thing from a path are all acceptable prayers to Allah.
