Hold on to the rope to the success

Good things are easy to act upon. Yet sometimes we close our eyes, betray ourselves, inflict wounds upon our hearts and feel guilt. Here, if we do not revert, repent and return to Allah (swt) and ask Him for forgiveness, He will put a small seed of hypocrisy in our hearts. We will start telling lies. We will start hiding our one side from the world. And we will slowly water the feed of sin until it grows into a plant. And then it turns into a tree and takes over the most part of our lives. We go completely blind. Here — Allah (swt) shuts His doors of hidayat and we die in this state.

Such people, find goodness hard. They find reasons to stay sinning, in spite of the marks sins leave upon us. They accept the temporary delight and lose the lasting successes. They compromise their relationships, their finances, life style and alter their version of success. Success for these people, is a failure in every sane eye. These people are mentioned in these verses — that they only end up hurting themselves. They lose and die in the same state they live their lives. And they are not worth the attention of the Prophet PBUH.

May Allah make us people, who Prophet PBUH finds pride in.. Amen
