How to Logically Prove to a Non Muslim the Existence of Heaven and Hell - Dr Zakir Naik

Narrated Anas: The Prophet ﷺ said, "None of you will have faith till he wishes for his (Muslim) brother what he likes for himself." --- حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏.‏ وَعَنْ حُسَيْنٍ الْمُعَلِّمِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ لا يُؤْمِنُ أَحَدُكُمْ حَتَّى يُحِبَّ لأَخِيهِ مَا يُحِبُّ لِنَفْسِهِ ‏"‏‏.‏ ( Sahih al-Bukhari, Book of Belief, Hadith 12 )

To whoever is going through a tough time recovering from an unhealthy relationship:

1. Don’t doubt what you did. It’s easy to think, “I’ve made a terrible mistake!” About your separation/divorce, but you did it for a reason. You choose your own sanity and happiness.

2. It’s okay to be sad. Allow yourself a good cry if you need it, or several. Pour your heart out to Allah (God) in supplication. Cry to your family and friends it’s okay to not be okay for a while. (It doesn’t make you less of a man or woman to express your feelings... in fact it’s healthy).

3. Stay out of contact. You might be tempted to call or text them, just to check in. Resist the temptation and try being alone for a while. Remember it’s better to be single than in a toxic/abusive relationship.

4. Love yourself. What happened has happened. You can’t go back and stop yourself from marrying them, nor can you go back and try to change them. You can move on from this.

5. Remembrance of Allah (God) is not only a safe haven from the problems and worries of this world, but it is also the short and easy path to achieving ultimate success.

When you remember Allah(God), clouds of worry and fear are driven away, and the mountains that make up your problems are blown away.

“Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest.”

(Qur’an 13: 28)

To the degree that you remember Allah (God), your heart will be calm and cheerful. His remembrance carries with it the meaning of total dependence upon Him, of turning to Him for aid, of having good thoughts about Him, and of waiting for victory from Him. Truly, He is near when supplicated: He hears when He is called and He answers when He is invoked, so humble yourself before Him and ask of Him sincerely. Repeat His beautiful blessed names, and mention Him as being alone worthy of worship. Mention His praises, supplicate to Him, and ask forgiveness, healing and tranquility from Him: you will then find – by the will of Allah (God)- happiness, peace, and illumination.

“So Allah (God) gave them the reward of this world and the excellent reward of the Hereafter” (Quran 3: 148)

-Qasim Rafique
