" يتيسَّر لك الذي تطلبه "
"Whatever you seek will be made easy for you."
قال الضياء المقدسي عن أحد شيوخه : وأوصاني وقت سفري،
Al-Dhiya' al-Maqdisi said about one of his teachers: "He advised me when I was about to travel, saying:
فقال : أكثر من قراءة القرآن ولا تتركه، فإنَّه يتيسر لك الذي تطلبه على قدر ما تقرأ،
'Increase your recitation of the Quran and do not abandon it, for what you seek will be made easy for you in proportion to how much you recite.'
قال : فرأيت ذلك وجربته كثيرًا، فكنت إِذا قرأت كثيرًا تيسر لي من سماع الحديث وكتابته الكثير، وإذا لم أقرأ لم يتيسر لي »، وكلما تقدم الإنسان بالقرآن تقدم بالعلم .
He said: 'I experienced this and tested it many times. When I read a lot, I found it easy to hear and write many hadiths. But when I did not read, it was not made easy for me.' And the more one advances with the Quran, the more one advances in knowledge."

How beautifully portrayed :
الرَّجُلُ مِثْلَ الْعِطْرِ الثَّمِينِ، يَنْثُرُ حُضُورُهُ فِي الْمَكَانِ ثُمَّ إِذَا رَحَلَ بَقِيَتْ بَقَايَاهُ! 🌷
The man is like precious perfume, his presence fills the space, and when he leaves, his traces remain!
وَالرَّجُلُ سِرٌّ مِنْ أَسْرَارِ السَّعَادَةِ الدُّنْيَوِيَّةِ.. هِبَةٌ مِنْ اللَّهِ لِلنِّسَاءِ مَنْ عُرِفَتْ كُنْهَهُ ذَاقَتْ زِينَةُ الْحَيَاةِ وَبَهْجَتُهَا وَأَدْرَكَتْ نَعِيمَ السَّكَنَ إِلَى حَيٍّ وَلَيْسَ إِلَى مَيِّتٍ!
The man is a secret of worldly happiness... a gift from Allah to women. Those who know him taste the beauty and joy of life and experience the bliss of tranquility—not towards the dead, but towards the living!
نَعِيمٍ السَّكَنُ إِلَى قَلْبٍ وَجَوَارِحَ وَلَيْسَ إِلَى جُدْرَانٍ وَ أُسْقُفٍ!! وَاثْنَانِ لَا يَفْتَرِقَانِ رَجُلٌ مُسْتَقِيمٌ.. وَجَنَّةُ الْأَرْضِ! إِذَا حَضَرَ الْأَوَّلُ تَحَقَّقَ الثَّانِي!!
The bliss of tranquility is for the heart and limbs, not for walls and ceilings! And two things do not part: an upright man and the paradise of the earth! When the first is present, the second is the reality!
وَالْمَرْأَةُ الَّتِي تَعِيشُ تَحْتَ مِظَلَّةِ رَجُلٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ تَعْرِفُ مَذَاقَ الْجَنَّةِ وَهِيَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ!
And the woman who lives under the shelter of an upright man knows the taste of paradise while she is on earth!
وَالرَّجُلُ إِذَا جَلْجَلَ صَوْتَهُ اهْتَزَّتْ الْأُنُوثَةُ وَرَبَتْ وَمَالُ غُصْنِ الْمَرْأَةِ وَ أَوْرَقَ!
When the man’s voice resonates, femininity shakes, grows, and the branch of the woman flourishes and blossoms!
وَتُدَافِعُ الْأَطْفَالَ يَتَسَابَقُونَ فَرَحًا.. جَاءَ السَّعْدُ! وَالْبَيْتُ الَّذِي لَا يَدْخُلُهُ رَجُلٌ بَيْتِ حِرْمَانٍ! وَالْحِرْمَانُ أَشَدُّ خَطَرًا مِنْ الْفَقْرِ!..♡
The children race in joy... happiness has arrived! And the home that no man enters is a house of deprivation! And deprivation is more dangerous than poverty♡

قيام الليل نجاة من الكروب ومفتاح للعطايا

The solution is in qiyam al layl, we should be among those who prostrate to Allah during the time of the suhur and say to Allah, Exalted and Glorified: our desires, our needs, our hopes and everything. And should not despair.
The Messenger of Allah, صلى الله عليه وسلم said: "Whoever stands at night prayer reciting ten verses, he will not be recorded among the heedless. Whoever stands with one hundred verses will be recorded among the devout worshipers, and whoever stands with a thousand verses will be recorded among those who are abundant in good deeds."
اللهم اجعلنا منهم..

On the authority of Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
"Recite the Qur'an, for indeed Allah does not punish a heart that has embraced the Qur'an. Indeed, this Qur'an is the banquet of Allah. Whoever enters it is safe, and whoever loves the Qur'an should be glad (or should rejoice)."
رواه الدارمي في سننه.

صاحب القرآن لا يستوحش ولو سار في الحياة وحده، فالقرآن أعظم نعيم
The companion of the Quran will never feel lonely, even if they walk through life alone, for the Quran is the greatest bliss.

﴿ولمن خاف مقام ربِّه جنَّتانِ﴾
"And for the one who fears the position of their Lord, there will be two gardens"
قال مجاهد :
«هو الرَّجل يريد أن يُذنب الذَّنب،
فيذكر مقام ربِّه، فيدع الذَّنب»
Mujahid said:
"HE is the man who intends to commit a sin, but then remembers the position of his Lord, and thus refrains from the sin."

Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen, may Allah have mercy on him, said:

"Do not dislike something that Allah has chosen. Allah may choose something that contains great benefit, of which you are unaware."

"Some who claim to seek knowledge have a certain neglect towards the Qur'an. You find that if they manage to arrive at the mosque before the prayer, they pray the two rak'ahs, and if there's still time, they take the Mushaf and read a page or two. The Qur'an, for them, is something to be engaged with only when there's free time.
Imam al-Shafi'i - may Allah have mercy on him - traveled from Makkah to Madinah at the age of fourteen, and completed sixteen recitation of the Qur'an during the journey."
الشيخ إبراهيم رفيق الطويل
يا طالب العلم عليك بتلاوة القرآن وتدبره، والاستنباط والتذكر والتذكير به، ولا تهمل القرآن بحجة طلبك للعلم، فأهل القرآن هم أهل الله وخاصته.
O seeker of knowledge, you must recite the Qur'an, reflect upon it, derive lessons from it, and remind yourself and others of it. Do not neglect the Qur'an under the excuse of seeking knowledge, for the people of the Qur'an are the people of Allah and His chosen ones.

Surah Khaf, seeking forgiveness, sending blessings upon the best of creation, and supplication at sunset—these are the precious moments of Friday, so do not neglect them.

« إذا كُنتَ في الشِّتاء، ولديك من الطَّعَام ما يُشبِعُك، وعليك من اللِّبَاس ما يقيك البردَ؛ فتذكَّر بالدُّعاء من لا يجدُ ما تجدُ من المسلمين،
"If you are in winter, and you have enough food to satisfy you, and enough clothing to protect you from the cold, then remember to pray for those Muslims who do not have what you have.
وقل: (اللَّهُمَّ أَطعِم جَوعَى المُسلمِينَ، وألبس ضُعفاءهم ما يُدفئهم) »
Say: 'O Allah, feed the hungry among the Muslims, and clothe the weak among them with what warms them.'"
