Introduction
We will asses that after Ramadhan who are the winners and who are the
losers. The scholars say that an indication of acceptance of fasting is that
Allah will make it easy to be obidient and do more good deeds. A sign of
rejection is that the slave will find it difficult to obey the commands and
increase in sinning. We ask Allah to accept all deeds done by us in the month
of Ramadhan and make us all among the winners.
Allah warned us against a woman in the Quran. There was a woman in
Makkah who after doing the spinning and making it firm used to untie it all
and start from the beginning. This is the example of foolish woman. The
mufasireen have interpreted that this is like a person who has made the
covenant with Allah and then broke it. This is also the example of a person
who leaves doing the good deeds he or she used to do in the month of
Ramadhan. After ramadhan don’t become the same person what you were
before Ramadhan. Some people become slackened after the month of
Ramadhan because they fail to realise that we are all in a journey to Allah
and we cant rest during this journey. Imam Ahmed ibn hanbad was asked
that when is the rest he replied that when you put first step in Jannah.

Allah is telling in this verse that that only Allah can keep you firm on the
straight path. Allah will keep you firm by keeping you in His worship. If any
temptation comes in your mind then Allah will keep you firm by making you
prefer to obey Allah and reject your desires. Then in the grave Allah will keep
you firm by making you answer the questions correctly and you will say Allah
is my Lord, Prophet Muhammad (Sallalaho Alihi Wassalam) is my messenger
and Islam is my deen. In today’s time of trials and tribulations we all need
firmness on Emaan. Only Allah can keep our hearts firm. By nature our
hearts are always changing. Prophet Muhammad (Sallaho alihi wassalam)
faced many difficulties and trials but Allah kept him firm.
Umme Salamah (Radi Allah Anho) asked Prophet Muhammad (Sallaho alohi
wassalam) that why do u make this dua always
so the Prophet replied that the
heart of son od adam is between the two fingers of Allah. so Allah will guide
and turn our hearts according to what we have in our hearts. We know that
the Prophet (Sallalaho alihiwassalm) warned us about the time when people
who are belivers in the morning are disbelivers in the evening. Who is
controlling their hearts.
There are some people who might apparently be doing the deeds of the people
of paradise but he ends up in the Hell fire and there are people who
seemingly are doing the deeds of hell fire but will end up in Paradise. Only
