What happens when the key to your door doesn't seem to do its job? Do you try another key? Or Do you break it down?
Tell me at the end of this newsletter what you would have done. I want to know if you'd do the same as me or if we are all jokers.
When a person wants to open a padlock, the first thing is to try with the right key and expect it to open. I am right, yeah?
I mean, I have the right key and it's not the first time I have tried to unlock it but here it is - not opening. What do you think is left?
Would you break it down? Or would you look up to Allah and think, perhaps I didn't say Bismillah before I inserted the key to the padlock?
Or you think Oh!
The BE of my Rabb.
After a few unsuccessful trials, we find ourselves muttering "Oh Lord, please help me open this padlock".
Let me ask you;
At what point do you make dua?
At what point does it occur to you to ASK YOUR RABB?
The person above is most of us. We try our efforts and only remember to ASK when it fails.
Beloved slaves of Ar-Rahman; No matter how easy and straightforward it seems, if it lacks the BE of your Lord, it will not "BE".
Why not make it a habit to Ask the One who is capable of opening all sorts of even without a key? DUA FIRST, EFFORT FOLLWS.
May Allah make us of those who call on HIM before anything.
I forgot to check on you. How are you?
May Allah keep you safe.
Till you see me again.
Your Dua Buddy.

Why start a newsletter?
Here, I just wrote my first letter to you through this.
I lost letters I wrote and kept with WhatsApp after losing chats, and no matter how hard I tried, I never got the original draft.
Here's to hoping this serves as storage, My own museum that keeps everything old but Gem.
🥺
These is indeed a great reminder
