     Fear Allah | Monday, February 05, 2001 - 01:14 pm
All praise is for Allah. We praise Him and seek His help and forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah from the evil of ourselves and the wickedness of our own deeds. Whomever Allah guides, none other can misguide, and whomever Allah misguides, none other can guide. I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone without associate, and I bear witness that Muhammed(saaw) is His slave and last Messenger. Oh you who believe, fear Allah with the fear that He is most deserving of you and do not die unless you are in a state of Al-Islam.

The Prophet(saaw) said: Allah(swt) says: "Indeed I am as My servant presumes Me to be, and I am
with him when he remembers Me, so if he remembers Me to himself I remember him to Myself, and if
he remembers Me amongst a company I remember him amongst a company greater than it, and if he
draws near to Me the span of a hand I draw near to him the span of an arm, and if he draws near to
Me the span of an arm I draw near to him the span of two outstretched arms, and if he comes to Me walking I come to him running."
