Bismillahirahmanirhim,
And among His Signs, He shows you the lightning, by way both of fear and of hope, and He sends down rain from the sky and with it gives life to the earth after it is dead: verily in that are Signs for those who are wise ~ Surah Ar-Rum 30:24
Have I let Iblis and Syaitan win this war? It is he who inculcate hate and create separations among us. It is his job anyway.
For the weak ones like us we tend to succumb to his suggestions.. get angry and make a fool of ourselves..
Cos the Syaitan knows too that the union of certain people will create armies of Children that Loves Allah swt and his Rasul and that they will wage War against them. They are afraid of this and they took action to whisper into our ears, make us do small sins without us realising. And unknowingly we succumb to it and this could lead to bigger problems and sins eventually.
However Allah swt is AL-MUHAYMIN ( The Protecter ), He will protect those He wants to protect and He is also AL-ALEEM (The All Knowing), He knows what’s best for us.
There are times we need this calamities in our life to make us understand that we have gone far astray from Allah swt. That we need to go back to Him.
Thank you Allah for showing us the lightning so that we are fearful of you and the rain to give us hope for a better future.
May Allah swt guides us all..
