From the home of Adam came a murderer, not just any murderer but one who murdered his own blood brother out of jealousy.
From the home of Lut came a woman who betrayed her husband and incited the people of the town towards the despicable act of so**my.
From the home of Nuh, a nabiyy of Allah who made da'awah for almost a thousand years came a child who refused to board the ark and who drowned as a kaafir in front of his eyes.
Yet from the home of Azar, who was not only an idol worshipper but an idol carver and merchant who never in his life took the name of Allah, came Ibraheem.
And from the home of Firaun, the one who claimed that He is Allah himself, came Musa who preached nothing but the oneness of Allah.
How can anyone then claim that the outcome of their family and children is based on their own kamaal?
How can people then look down upon parents who have lost their children to the fitnas of the time, citing their negligence?
How then can anyone with sane undastnding and logic believe that guidance is in the hands of anyone but Allah?
In the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful
All praises are for Allah SWT, the most Compassionate, the most Forgiving
Salutations and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad SAW, his family and companions.
