The End is Just the Beginning
He welcomes you every time. Even now. Jumuah Mubarak
One of the most beautiful truths of our faith is this: drawing closer to Allah is a journey with no ceiling. There is no point at which you've "arrived"only deeper love, more radiant light, and greater nearness.
With each sincere stepeach prayer whispered, verse recited, or wrong forgivenyou move closer to the Most Merciful. But instead ofthe road narrowing, it opens. The closer you get, the more your heart expands, the more peace you taste, and the more purpose you feel.
As Ustadh Tariq eloquently puts it in hisEid khutbah, "the end of the path is just the beginning."
_Worship Allah as if you see Him,_the Prophet taughtnot just as a concept, but as a way of living. When that nearness becomes your reality, everything changes. Prayer becomes a meeting. Dhikrbecomes a sanctuary. Deeds become a pathway, not a checklist.
And in these sacred months, your steps are magnified.
Allah has chosen this time for our deeds to carry greater weight. So draw nearer by doing what pleases Himand protect yourself by avoiding what distances you. Especially now when the stakes are higher and thegates of mercy are wide open.
Because you cannot exhaust the Infinite.
His mercy has no limit. His door never closes. And He is always ready to receive you.
Jumuah Mubarak. May your every step bring you closer toHim.
