Tawakkul Or Qanaat

Book Name:Tawakkul Or Qanaat

بے چھنا آٹا روٹی بھی موٹی

 

کھانا تو دیکھو جَو کی روٹی

صَلَّی اللهُ عَلَیهِ وَسَلَّم

 

وہ بھی شکم بھر روز نہ کھانا

دونوں جہاں کے داتا ہو کر

 

کون و مکاں کے آقا ہو کر

صَلَّی اللهُ عَلَیهِ وَسَلَّم

 

ہیں فاقے سے شاہِ دو عالَم

اُس کا بچھونا ایک چٹائی

 

قبضے میں جس کے ساری خدائی

صَلَّی اللهُ عَلَیهِ وَسَلَّم

 

نظروں میں کتنی ہیچ ہے دُنیا

 

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب              صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

 

Dear Islamic brothers! Despite being the owner of the treasure of both the worlds, our Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم led his life full of contentment. Therefore we should also follow in the footsteps of our Beloved Rasool            صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, obey him and become a contented person. Contentment has many worldly and Hereafter advantages. Let’s listen to some of them:

Advantages of contentment and disadvantages                            of satisfying desires

1.         Contentment eradicates the love of the world from the heart, whereas the one who satisfies his desires keeps falling in love with the world and a time comes when he considers this world to be everything. It is deadly poison for Deen.

A contented person places absolute trust in Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ rather than the resources. In this way, he protects himself from the dependence on others. On the other hand, the discontented person keeps his eye on the resources and considers them to be everything. In the same way, he has hopes and great expectations from people.

Contentment protects a person from acting according to the desires and by virtue of its blessing he lives his life with peace and satisfaction, whereas acting according to the desires brings about restlessness and stress.
