=======================================
CREATION :ISLAM
BLESSING :WORSHIPING ALLAH
=======================================
"They impress on thee as a favour that they have embraced Islam. Say, Count not your Islam as a favour upon me: nay, God has conferred a favour upon you that He has guided you to the Faith, if ye be true and sincere." (Quran 49:17)
"يمنون عليك أن أسلموا قل لا تمنوا على إسلامكم بل الله يمكن عليكم أن هداكم للإيمان إن كنتم صادقين"
YOUR FEELING
OF THAT BLESSING : I don't think any of us can easily express the gratitude we have to Allah for being Muslims. To me being a Muslim is sufficient to spend day and night praising Allah and will never suffice His right. Alhamdulelah that we know we have only One Lord. Alhamdulelah that we are not enslaved to any but Allah the Merciful, Alhamdulelah that we are benefiting of His Name Assabour (All Patient), other wise He would just bring the skies down on earth, Alhamdulelah that I know my Lord is القريب (The Close) who listens to me all the time without being fed up. Not one single time or minute any of His creation calls on Him and He is not listening. Sobhan Allah. سبحان الله عما يصفون
