The post Who Is the Best of Those Who Strive in Allah’s Path? – Shaykh Faraz Rabbani appeared first on SeekersGuidance.

Shaykh Faraz Rabbani explains a beautiful hadith of the Beloved Messenger of Allah (peace & blessings be upon him & his folk),

“Three qualities are means of Salvation:

(1) Reverent awe (khashiya) of Allah in private and in public,

(2) Moderation in wealth and in poverty, and

(3) Just balance in happiness and in anger.” (Tabarani, Bayhaqi, and others, from Anas (Allah be pleased with him), with some weaknesses according to Imam Iraqi]

These three qualities cultivate restraint and taqwa and operationalize gratitude and the love of Allah in our lives.
