Indeed, be Always with Allah ❤️

Once… a man stood over Prophet Muhammad ﷺ with a drawn sword.

The Prophet ﷺ was resting under a tree, alone.
The man shouted:

“Who will save you from me?”

The Prophet ﷺ replied calmly:
“Allah.”

The man trembled… the sword slipped from his hand.

Now the Prophet ﷺ picked it up.
He asked:
“Who will save you from me?”
The man, shaking, said:
“No one…”

But instead of revenge… the Prophet ﷺ forgave him.
And let him go.

Once a young boy stood trembling before a powerful king.

The king demanded: “Leave your faith, and I will spare you.”

But the boy refused.

Again and again, they tried to harm him but each time, he survived.

Finally, he told the king:
“You will never be able to kill me unless you do what I say.

Curious, the king agreed.
The boy instructed him to gather the الناس, take an arrow, and say:
“In the name of the Lord of the boy.”

The king did so… and the arrow struck.
The boy passed away.

But something unexpected happened…
The entire crowd cried out:

“We believe in the Lord of the boy!”
This is the story mentioned by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ about the أصحاب الأخدود.

"The Man Who Gave Away His Garden"

A companion of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ once heard about a man who complained that his neighbor’s tree branch crossed into his land.
The Prophet ﷺ asked the tree owner:
“Give him the tree, and you will have a tree in Jannah.”

But the man refused.

Then another companion, Abu Dujana رضي الله عنه, stepped forward.

He offered his entire garden in exchange for that single tree… and then gave the tree to the neighbor.
The Prophet ﷺ smiled and said:
“How many trees in Paradise are for Abu Dujana!”

When Prophet Muhammad ﷺ entered Makkah after years of ظلم, exile, and hardship, he came with strength of 10,000 companions.

The people of Makkah were terrified.

They expected revenge.

Instead, the Prophet ﷺ asked:
“What do you think I will do to you?”

They replied,
“You are a noble brother, son of a noble brother.”

He said:

“Go… you are all free.”

"The Boy Who Spoke the Truth"

During the time of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, a young boy once came to him with a heavy heart.
He said, “O Messenger of Allah, I cannot stop myself from lying.”

Instead of scolding him, the Prophet ﷺ gave him a simple instruction:

“Promise me that you will always speak the truth.”
The boy agreed.

Later, he went out… and was tempted to commit a sin. But then he paused.
“If the Prophet asks me,” he thought, “I will have to tell the truth.”

That fear of telling the truth stopped him.

Not just once… but again and again.

Slowly, he left all his bad habits just by holding onto one promise.

One sincere commitment can transform your entire life. Truthfulness protects you even from yourself.

During the time of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, there was a night when the Muslims were traveling and needed rest. A companion was assigned to guard the group while everyone slept.
The guard chose a quiet spot and began praying. As he stood in prayer, an enemy quietly approached and shot an arrow at him. The arrow struck him but he did not stop praying.

A second arrow hit him… still, he continued.
Then a third.

Only after finishing his prayer did he wake the others. When they saw his wounds, they were shocked.

“Why didn’t you stop earlier?” they asked.
He replied calmly:

“I was reciting a beautiful portion of the Qur’an, and I didn’t want to cut it short.”

The Night Journey That Changed History

On a blessed night, Allah honored Prophet Muhammad ﷺ with a miraculous journey, from Makkah to Jerusalem and beyond the heavens. This extraordinary event, Al-Isra wal Mi’raj, is not just a story, it's a powerful reminder of faith, purpose, and divine connection.

✓ It reminds us of the مقام (honor) of our beloved Prophet ﷺ.
✓ It marks the gift of the 5 daily prayers—a direct connection with Allah.

✓ It strengthens our belief in the unseen and Allah’s limitless power.

In moments of hardship, remember: relief can come in ways beyond imagination.

“Glory be to Him who took His servant by night…” (Surah Al-Isra 17:1)

Let this journey inspire us to strengthen our Salah and deepen our relationship with Allah.
