Qur'an 20211028

 In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

28.  When they do that which is shameful, they say, "We found our fathers doing so," and "Allah commanded us thus."  Say, "Allah never commands what is shameful.  Do you say of Allah what you know not?"

29.  Say, "My Lord has commanded justice, and that you set your whole selves at every time and place of prayer, and call upon God, making your devotion sincere as in God's sight.  Such as God created you in the beginning, so shall you return."

(The Heights 7:28-29)

It's mostly downhill from up here

 

Hi Natty!  How are you?  Are you enjoying the ride?  How's your back?  Please be careful and aware, because habitual injury can be irreversible.  Try to find a comfortable way to labor.  Sleep on the floor.  I sleep on the floor, and I don't get back pain.  Alhamdulillah.

It can get lonely at the top, but at least you're at the top.  The good news is that nobody can ever reach God, so there will always be steps to climb.  But if our agenda were anything other than God, then we're shit out of luck.  Only one direction to go.  So please be righteous.  I  love you for the sake of Allah.
