Are You A Prisoner? Find Out.


Recommended Posts

By creating you as His slave, He created you free. Completely free. You had freedom; freedom from fears, heartaches, rejection from the creation, dependence on humans, begging them for love and care...

 

By turning away from this gift of freedom, you enslaved yourself. You entered into this prison of desires, pain, fear, hope and trust in the humans, by choice.

 

In just being a slave of Allah, you have freedom and security. In being a slave of every creation, there is fear of loss and restlessness.

 

Remember bearing witness to la ilaha illAllah has two parts:

A negation first. Then an affirmation.

 

First you say and believe la ilaha. By doing so, you free your heart of every enslavement.

Then you affirm: illAllah. Now you are a slave of Him alone.

 

You were born free. Don't die a prisoner.
