There were some actions which the Sahābah (Radiallāhu anhum)
practised in Makkah Mukarramah in order to establish their īmān
(faith), conviction and trust in Allah Ta’ālā.
We need to revive these actions in our lives. We have to recognize the
greatness of Allah Ta’āla through His creation, bring alive the love of
Allah Ta’ālā in our hearts by examining ourselves and by counting
His favours. We have to negate the qualities and effects that we see in
the creation of Allah Ta’ālā and affirm that Allah Ta’ālā alone brings
about the effects by His command, discuss death and life after death
so that a constant vision of the hereafter remains uppermost in our
minds, repeat the virtues of actions to develop the conviction in the
words of Allah Ta’ālā and His Nabi (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) so that
it motivates us to practise Dīn, make the correct intentions before
and during every action and read the surahs, adhkār and duās with
due concentration.
This book has been prepared to help parents, teachers and learners
achieve their goal of embedding īmān into the depths of their hearts
by doing these actions practically.
The outcome of this subject is for us to understand that our aim in
life is to earn the pleasure of Allah Ta’ālā, the Dīn of Allah Ta’ālā must
come alive in the whole world and to develop the consciousness of
Allah Ta’ālā. Allah Ta’ālā is the ultimate objective in our life.
The benefit of doing these actions is that we will achieve a firm conviction
in the words of Allah Ta’ālā and His Nabi (Sallallahu alaihi
wasallam).
