THE BLESSED OF ALLAH

Blessed are the morally upright who care for their Muslim sisters and brothers,
Blessed are they who share their wealth with those less fortunate than others.

Blessed are they who speak words of love and peace, not words of vilification,
Blessed are they who have lived the ‘Sunnah Allah’ in every generation.

Blessed are they who do not alter the ‘Sunnah Allah’ one jot or one tittle,
Blessed are they who do not alter the ‘Prophets Sunnah’ or sell it for mere metal,

Blessed are they who care for the sick, the old, the orphan, the beggars and others,
Blessed are they for they shall surely be called Allah’s own personal lovers.

Blessed are they who forbid the money lending and the house of the usurers,
Blessed are they for they shall be called Allah’s trusted and personal treasurers.

Blessed are they who refuse to diminish Islam by dividing into this and that sect,
Blessed are they for they will become Allah’s trusted and eminent elect.

Blessed are they who lead by example, exhibiting a strong ethical and moral code,
Blessed are they within Allah’s light, which no superpower could possibly erode.

Blessed are they who act out of love and concern and speak only the truth,
Blessed are they for their selfless acts will be recorded in their book as proof.

Blessed are they who treat with respect and strength their periods of fasting,
Blessed are they for they will languish in Allah’s embracing Grace everlasting.

Blessed are they who protect themselves against promiscuity and sexual deviance,
Blessed are they for they shall receive Allah’s personal deliverance.

Blessed are they who do not spread false gossip, and refrain from backbiting,
Blessed are they who spread the Quranic truth with both speech and writing.

Blessed are they who heal the sick with Allah’s universal and mystical powers,
Blessed are they who work for and in his name, without counting the hours.

Blessed are they who follow the path of the universal and cosmic Sufi Masters,
Blessed are they for only they can deliver us from our created holocaust of disasters.

Blessed are they who refuse the mantle of bomber and Jihadist terrorist,
Blessed are they who deny them Martyrdom and tell them to repent and to desist.

Blessed are they who walk softly and treat others with respect and grace,
Blessed are all of these people for they will see Allah’s house and His cosmic face.
