THE HUMBLE ONE
One day Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) was going somewhere at noon and it was too hot in the desert when He (S.A.W) saw an old woman carrying her luggage on her head. Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) helped her and took the luggage from the woman and carried it for her..
Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) asked the woman that where she was going and why? She said that I am leaving this town as I have heard that a magician named Muhammad (S.A.W) is in town.
As Holy Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) was very patient and kind, He (S.A.W) didn't say a word and kept listening. The old lady kept complaining that why she was leaving the town.
In short the basic reason of her to leave the town was her misconception about Muhammad (S.A.W), who was walking beside her and she didn't knew it.
While walking with the Holy Prophet (peace be upon Him), that old women noticed that this young man have a brightness on his smiling and humble face. And she also noticed that His sweat is perfumed. She was very impressed.
When they reached the destination, Muhammad (S.A.W) put down the bag and was about to leave when the old woman said,"O, kind person! At least tell me your name!". Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) replied,"I am the person because of whom you left the town."The old lady was amazed to listen that and said that such a kind, helping and true person can never be wrong and therefore she also accepted Islam.
"When you consciously decide to forgive, you may feel like you're giving the gift of grace. You're not. That person may not need or even want your forgiveness. The forgiving is for you. It's the only gift that allows you to let go and move on.
Forgiveness heals the deepest of wounds. And while the scars may never completely disappear, your forgiveness can help them fade. May God place in all our hearts the capacity to forgive freely and may He release us all from the chains of blame, anger, and hate."

"Souls are like conscripted soldiers; those whom they recognize, they get along with, and those whom they do not recognize, they will not get along with"
(Sahih Al-Bukhari).
The Prophet (peace be upon him) has encouraged us with regards to
our dua (supplication), “Ask and you will be given, ask you will be given,”
(At-Tirmithi)
Wajah, harta dan semua yang ada adalah milik-Nya dan akan kembali kepada-Nya. Masih pantaskah kita menyombongkan diri kepada-Nya dan berbangga-banggaan atas apa yang kita miliki? Semuanya itu tidak akan bisa menolong kita dan hanyalah amal-amal kita kelak yang bisa menyelamatkan kita. Astaghfirullahal'adziim.
