O Muslims Why are our HEARTS so dark!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BY FATIMA AIISHA ISSA

I begin my words by praising Allah, the Most High,
for His great favours and His grand, sweeping bounties,
because, by Allah, He has been generous to me with many gifts and bounties, which I’m unable to enumerate, nor am I able to extend (suitable) praise for it nor to fulfill my gratitude towards them.

I want you brothers and sisters to Picture this scenario, If you have a dirty shirt would u ......
A) mask it an fragrance it with Atar(perfume) ..............or would u
B) Wash it with soap.......

The logical thing to do is to wash it first with soap then if you want to perfume it you can inshalla this will only it make it more for you to wear…….
So quite easy right!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 
Now the moral behind this is that every day, both day and night our hearts are blackened and covered with a darkness from the repition of our sins, now some of us are very unaware and continue with their ignorance, whereas some of us will have a sense of remorse and will repent quickly……………may ALLAH make upon the latter one……………….
Now the key to cleansing of the heart is repentance and seeking the forgiveness of ALLAH, O Muslims we should never despair of the Mercy of ALLAH, for no one forgives sins except ALLAH, no matter how great they are………………

The evidence can be seen from the following hadith below
Hadith Qudsi 1: 
On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said:
When Allah decreed the Creation He pledged Himself by writing in His book which is laid down with Him: My mercy prevails over my wrath. ((It was related by Muslim (also by al-Bukhari, an-Nasa'i and Ibn Majah)).
Just take a moment here and let us thank and glorify OUR LORD, …………….ALHAMADULIAH, SUBHANALLAH, ALLAHU AKBAR………………..

So inshalla brothers and sisters let us purify our hearts by first doing lots of istkfar(istagfirullah, subhanallah, walhamduliah, Allahu akbar and then dhkir(rememberance of ALLAH)
Do not let shaytaan make us forgetful, REMEMBER and empty mind is the workshop of the shaytaan, Let  us exercise our brains and tongues………………
Do not be 2 arrogant, for arrogance is a trait of IBLISS (may ALLAH curse him)

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala stated in •••►(Surat al-Muminun: 12-14)

We created man from the purest kind of clay; then made him
a drop in a secure receptacle; then formed the drop into a clot and
formed the clot into a lump and formed the lump into bones and
clothed the bones in flesh; and then brought him into being
as another creature. Blessed be God, the Best of Creators.

O you who believe! Remember Allah with much remembrance. And glorify His Praises morning and afternoon. He it is who sends His Blessings on you, and His angels too, that He may bring you out from darkness into light. And He is Ever Most Merciful to the believers. (SURAT AL AHZAB V.41-43)

May ALLAH make us amongst those  who are ever grateful to him and remember HIM much and GLORIFY HIS PARISES

ALLAHU AKBAR
