The Fortress of Allāh ﷻ

Who is with Allāh ﷻ is not afraid. Who is with Allāh ﷻ is not upset inshā’aLlāh. Because Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla says in the Qur’ān Karīm in the āyah which we read in khuṭbah; Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

“Inna waliyyiya llāhu lladhī nazzala l-kitāba wa-huwa yatawallā ṣ-ṣāliḥīn”, “Indeed, my protector is Allah, who has sent down the Book; and He is an ally to the righteous.” (Qur’an 07:196). Allāh ﷻ is the helper of the righteous ones. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the one who helps them in everything. As long as their greatest power and their biggest support is Allāh ﷻ, no one can stand up against them.

That is why people who are believers and righteous are satisfied. They don't need anyone. Allāh ﷻ is their helper and supporter. Allāh ﷻ is with them. May Allāh ﷻ be with us. May He ﷻ not be against us. That is what we want. If you are with Allāh ﷻ, you can't go opposite each other. The opposers will lose. Even though they think they are winning, certainly, what they attain will not be good for them; it will be bad.

Therefore, people who are believers and Muslim should know this good tiding. The word of Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla is Haqq/true. It can never be otherwise. The promise of Allāh ﷻ is true. His ﷻ promise is true means what He ﷻ says is true. Who is with Him ﷻ will win. Allāh ﷻ will make his work successful. His deeds will be accepted. Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla will give him his rewards.

Therefore, there is a lot of Fitnah and evil everywhere around as we live in the end of times. What’s important is to be with Allāh ﷻ. Do not be ever against Allāh ‘Azza wa-Jalla. Be with Allāh ﷻ. Don't go against Allāh ﷻ. Who goes against Allāh ﷻ never wins. Even if he wins or even if he earns throughout his life, everything he earns will be given to him for more suffering.

Therefore, there are tests of Allāh ﷻ. But eventually, people who pass the test will reach peace. They will reach eternal happiness insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
