sharing is caring

Who in the world came out with that phrase? Honestly, how do people say the right thing at the right time? and the words sound cool too. I'm referring to those amazing impromptu speakers whose words are quoted by other people, years and years, generations after generations..amazing..right?

Now, those are words from people. How about words from God? Won't it be more amazing?
Yes. You don't trust me? Pick up a Qur'an and start reading it. I mean really read it and understand word by word. If you don't understand Arabic, it's fine. I don't too. There are Qur'an with translations. Although I must say, I wish I can understand Arabic. And I'm in the process of learning :) Understanding the language will give us more understanding of the Qur'an because Arabic is such a beautiful language.

Now, the Qur'an to me is like some sort of a motivational book. The best one I've read. Whenever I'm feeling down or something, I read the Qur'an and I find myself feeling better. Because, the words that I read is an actual word from God..Subhanallah..:)
Now, I want to share few verses that I love from the Qur'an. Sharing is caring. :P

'If any of My servants ask you (Muhammad) about me,tell them that the Lord says, " I am near; I accept the prayers of those who pray." Let My servants answer My call and believe in Me so that perhaps they may know the right direction.' (Al-Baqarah 2:186)

'...you may not like something which, in fact, is for your own good and something that you may love, in fact, may not be good for you. God knows, but you do not know.' (Al-Baqarah 2:216) 'God does not impose on any person responsibility beyond his ability.....' (Al-Baqarah 2:286)

'Hasten to obtain forgiveness from your Lord and to qualify yourselves for Paradise. Paradise, vast as the heavens and the earth, is prepared for the pious, who spend their property for the cause of God in prosperity as well as in adversity and who also harness their anger and forgive the people. God loves the righteous ones. Paradise is also for those who when committing a sin or doing injustice to themselves, remember God and ask Him to forgive their sins. Who can forgive sins besides God? And who do not knowingly persist in their mistakes?' (Al-'Imran 3:133-135)


'If God is your helper, no one can defeat you. However, if He abandons you, who would help you? The true believers trust in God' (Al-'Imran 3:160)

'For a single good deed, one will be rewarded tenfold. But the recompense for a bad deed will be equal to that of the deed and no injustice will be done to anyone.' (Al-An'am 6: 160)

'After every difficulty, there is relief. Certainly, after every difficulty, there comes relief." (Al-Insyirah 94:5-6)


You know, I could go on and on with the list. There's just so many beautiful words from God.
So, after this..if you had a bad day..instead of getting angry and moody at innocent people around you..I suggest, read the Qur'an..with a sincere heart and feelings. InsyaAllah, God will guide you.
It's 12.54 am. and I think I need a sleep. So, till then..take care of yourselves for me will you? ;)

ps: now, in aussie..i really get the meaning of TGIF (thank God it's Friday). people are just going crazy over the weekend..i can hear sounds of sirens every now and then. well, another saying by some people i dunno. "when it's time to work, work hard..when it's time to play, play hard.." woohoo,,these people must have really worked hard ;)
