Bismillah
as salam alykom brothers and sisters,
One year already elapsed, may Allah Makes the coming one a blessed one. Each year, I stop and ponder on the whole situation of the Hijra trip that our beloved Messenger salla Allah a`lyhee wa sallam took together with his companion Abu Bakr may Allah be pleased with him, the difficulties they endured, the risks they took, the planning they had to make, leave alone the 11 year old boy replacing the Messenger salla Allah a`lyhee wa sallam in his bed fearlessly. They did not care except for preserving the gift that they communicated to us. Are we maintaining, applying and observing the gift? We need to take this opportunity and renew the pledge with Allah, polish our Niyah, and move forward In sha a Allah putting forth the amount of effort that had been taken 1400 years ago.
