DAILY REFLECTIONS

"A true believer is not involved in taunting, or frequently cursing (others) or in indecency or abusing" [Al-Tirmidhi]

●○•°•○● Dua of Adam ﷺ

قَالَا رَبَّنَا ظَلَمْنَا أَنفُسَنَا وَإِن لَّمْ تَغْفِرْ لَنَا وَتَرْحَمْنَا لَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ
"They said, "Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves, and if You do not forgive us and have mercy upon us, we will surely be among the losers." (7:23)
Lessons:
1- Take responsibility for your Mistakes
2- Look, first, to yourself for blame
3- Join with others who seek reformation, in your dua
4- Call out to Allah with an admission of guilt
5- Magnify Allah and Praise Him as only He deserves
6- Express regret, genuine remorse and seek to develop a sense of desperation at the thought of not being forgiven.
7- Ask for Forgiveness - that you are given the ability to earn enough good deeds to expunge and "cover up" your sins.
8- Ask for Mercy - That the Almighty removes the sin as if it was not incurred in the first place.
9- Pledge improvement into the future and a commitment to better yourself.
