Crying in Fear of ALLAH
admitted to Paradise. An announcer will proclaim: “Listen! This man has been saved from Hellfire because of a single eyelash.”[1]
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
The limitless mercy of Allah Almighty
O those who love Allah’s Messenger! From this story, we not only learn the significance of crying in fear of Allah, but also realise how vast and boundless His mercy is.
Allah Almighty showers limitless mercy upon His servants. In this world, the rule is that mistakes are instantly met with scolding or punishment. Yet, how boundless is the mercy of Allah! Despite our countless disobediences, He conceals our faults! Despite our sins, He does not withhold our sustenance! Despite our continuous errors, He does not close the doors of His grace upon us. Out of pure mercy He hides our sins, for indeed, His mercy precedes His wrath.
However, there is one principle we must always remember. We are His servants, and He is our Master. It is obligatory for us to act according to His commands. After we do this, He will bless us as per His unlimited grace.
