ALLAH’S RESPONSE TO THE BELIEVERS!...
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. [Quran 1:1]
When ALLAH’S sincere servant says:
All praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of the universe! [Quran 1:2]
Allah the Most High says:
My servant has Praised Me!
When ALLAH’S sincere servant says:
The most Merciful, the most Beneficent! [Quran 1:3]
He (Allah the Most High) says:
My servant has lauded Me!
When ALLAH’S sincere servant says:
Master of the Day of Judgment! [Quran 1:4]
He (Allah the most high) says:
My servant has glorified Me! [My servant entrusted (his affairs) to Me!]
When ALLAH’S sincere servant says:
You alone do we worship, and You alone do we ask for help! [Quran 1:5]
He (Allah the most high) says:
This is Between Me and My servant, and My servant will receive what he asks for!
When ALLAH’S sincere servant says:
Guide
us to the Straight Path! The path of those upon whom You have bestowed
Your blessings! Not the path of those who earned Your wrath, or erred
and went astray. [Quran 1:6-7]
He (Allah the most high) says:
This is for My servant, and My servant will receive what he asks for!
[Muslim, Book #004, Hadith #0775] “Abu
Huraira reported: The Apostle of Allah (may peace Be upon him) said: If
anyone observes prayer in which he does not recite Umm al-Qur'an, It is
deficient [he said this three times] and not complete. It was said to
Abu Huraira: At times we are Behind the Imam. He said: Recite it
inwardly, for he had heard the Messenger of Allah (may peace Be upon
him) declare
that
Allah the Exalted had said: I have divided the prayer into two
halves Between Me and My servant, and My servant will receive what he
asks. When the servant says: Praise Be to Allah, the Lord of the
universe, Allah the Most High says: My servant has Praised Me. And when
he (the servant) says: The Most Compassionate, the Merciful, Allah the
Most High says: My servant has lauded Me. And when he (the servant)
says: Master of the Day of judgment, He remarks: My servant has
glorified Me. and sometimes He would say: My servant entrusted (his
affairs) to Me. And when he (the worshiper) says: Thee do we worship and
of Thee do we ask help, He (Allah) says: This is Between Me and My
servant, and My servant will receive what he asks for. Then, when he
(the worshiper) says: Guide us to the straight path, the path of those
to whom Thou hast Been Gracious not of those who have incurred Thy
displeasure, nor of those who have gone
astray, He (Allah) says: This is for My servant, and My servant will
receive what he asks for. Sufyan said: 'Ala b. 'Abd al-Rahman b. Ya'qub
narrated it to me when I went to him and he was confined to his home on
account of illness, and I asked him about it.”
