Beastly as it is, our beauty is not in our faces that age over time, it is in our hearts where the trueness of us resides which is realised in the eyes of the beholder. These days goodness is becoming a rare find with a loss of pure minded people, etiquette, goodness and just plain old sharing and caring.
It seems that when you show kindness, love and goodly hearty acts it is not well received and often questioned for its motives. The true art of sincerity means you have to always be consistent and know that your reward lies with Allah. We have the ability to do good - if we wrong then we have repentance, an honourable blessing bestowed upon us by Allah, so that we may start over again.
Narrated An-Nu'man bin Bashir:I heard Allah's Apostle saying, 'Both legal and illegal things are evident but in between them there are doubtful (suspicious) things and most of the people have no knowledge about them. So whoever saves himself from these suspicious things saves his religion and his honor. And whoever indulges in these suspicious things is like a shepherd who grazes (his animals) near the Hima (private pasture) of someone else and at any moment he is liable to get in it. (O people!) Beware! Every king has a Hima and the Hima of Allah on the earth is His illegal (forbidden) things. Beware! There is a piece of flesh in the body if it becomes good (reformed) the whole body becomes good but if it gets spoilt the whole body gets spoilt and that is the heart.[Sahih Bukhari]

that's true dear, that nowadays.. Goodness is something which is very hard to be found. Even when it is done without a motive.. Then the suspicions will arose. But I do agree, that reward from Allah is the best motive for us to do good this.. To be good again and again..
Masha'Allah! I love this post!! And how true it all is!
Thank you sister.
I hope you're having a great Sunday. I've caught a little cold (again...well, it's been so cold here the past days...) but I'm going to my dad's birthday anyway in one hour. Insha'Allah it'll be a good day.
Take care :) <3
To me goodness is the song of the birds at dawn, the blooming flowers adorning the gardens, the moon jewelling the night... the world lacks goodness, but the earth is filled with goodness! Tis people who actually lack goodness... apart from a few angelic souls like U :-)
This is so true =) What a lovely reminder! Everyone should read and hear this.
thank you all. Silent Echo, nice one.
