Every State Shall End

Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

“Kullu Halin Yazul. Subhana l-Ladhi la yahulu wala yazul.” It is a great word. Every state and everything that happens in this world will finish. Everything has an end. And every person has something to go through in his life. Both the good and the bad will be over. “Yazul” means it will finish and will be over.

Everything we see is a state. There are states that have to occur. They occur and then end. It is so for all mankind and for all creatures. It is the law of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla for everything He ﷻ created. In any case, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is One. He ﷻ neither changes, nor disappears. His ﷻ attribute is Al-Baqi, The Everlasting. He ﷻ is unchanging.

As long as people live in this world, no one can say “I will be this, I will be that” and be as he likes. People can strive as much as they want by saying “I will remain like this. I will live forever”. They are striving in vain. Everything will be over. Happiness comes to an end. Sadness comes to an end. Diseases come to an end. Life comes to an end. As we said, Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the one who doesn’t have an end and whose essence is not affected by anything.

Therefore, as long as we live in this world, we should be content with everything Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla gives us, not the states of this world. We should think about it in order to be at ease. Don’t get upset about this war or that strike, about drought or oppression. All of them will remain in this world and will be over. They are tests for people. Those who pass the test are not those who are sad and grieve about it, but those who are patient with what comes from Allah ﷻ. The patient believers and Muslims get their rewards in return.

But shaytan has captured all the world in his hands, as if he is going to save people. He cannot save them. He cannot save anything. Even if there were billions of shaytans, they wouldn’t be able to do anything. Nothing can save from the state given by Allah ﷻ. Only Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla can save. And whatever Allah ﷻ wants happens. Nothing happens outside His ﷻ will. We must know this.

There are people who want to get benefit by putting a blame on this and that one. But they cannot get any benefit. Because they are people too. And that benefit will be gone too. It will be over. May Allah ﷻ not separate us from Iman. May Allah ﷻ give strength of Iman to all of us, only then we will find peace and be at ease.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
