While the World Moves On | A Duaa for the Oppressed, the Imprisoned, and the Forgotten

There are pains that never reach us fully.

We hear the news. We feel something for a moment. Then the world pulls us back into our work, our homes, our money, our plans, and our schedules. We return to our food, our sleep, our safety, as if nothing happened.

But there are people who do not return.

There are people who remain behind heavy doors, behind iron bars, behind a long absence, waiting for a relief that no one owns except Allah.

This duaa is not only for the oppressed, the imprisoned, and the forgotten.

It is also a mirror for us.

A mirror for hearts that became used to blessings until they forgot to thank Allah for them. A mirror for souls that heard pain so often that they almost became numb to it. A mirror for people who owned freedom for so long that they began to think it was normal.

This is the duaa:

While the World Moves On.

دعاء للمظلومين والأسرى والمنسيين

دعاء للمظلومين والأسرى والمنسيين

هناك آلام لا تصل إلينا كاملة.

نسمع الخبر، نتأثر لحظة، ثم تسحبنا الدنيا إلى أعمالنا، وبيوتنا، وأموالنا، ومواعيدنا. نعود إلى طعامنا، ونومنا، وأماننا، كأن شيئًا لم يكن. لكن هناك من لا يعود. هناك من يبقى خلف الأبواب الثقيلة، خلف القضبان، خلف الغياب الطويل، ينتظر فرجًا من الله لا يملكه أحد غيره.

هذا الدعاء ليس مجرد كلمات للمظلومين والأسرى والمنسيين. هو مرآة لنا أيضًا. مرآة لقلوب اعتادت النعم حتى نسيت شكرها، وسمعت الألم حتى كادت تعتاده، وملكت الحرية حتى ظنتها أمرًا عاديًا.

هذا هو الدعاء

دعاء لهداية الضالين من العالمين

​ 

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيم

اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَىٰ نبينا مُحَمَّد…
نَبِيِّ الرَّحْمَة وَسِرَاجِ التَّائِهِين …
وَأُنْسِ المُنْكَسِرِينَ …
وَشَفِيعِ المُذْنِبِينَ…
وَمَنْ أَرْسَلْتَهُ نُورًا فِي زَمَنِ الظُّلُمَات…
وَبَابًا لِمَنْ ضَاقَتْ بِهِ الدُّنْيَا…
وَحَبْلًا لِمَنْ أَثْقَلَتْهُمُ الذُّنُوب…
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَىٰ آلِهِ الطَّاهِرِينَ…
الَّذِينَ حَفِظْتَ بِهِمْ نُورَ الهِدَايَة…
وَجَعَلْتَ فِي ذِكْرِهِمْ سَكِينَةً لِلْقُلُوب…
وَعَلَىٰ كُلِّ قَلْبٍ أَحَبَّهُ صَادِقًا…
وَتَعَلَّقَ بِنُورِهِ…
وَسَارَ عَلَىٰ هَدْيِهِ…
وَرَجَا رَحْمَتَكَ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الدِّين…

What is Islam?

What is Islam?
Islam is an Arabic word that means: Surrender. Submission. Obedience. Sincerity. And Peace.

The Fate of Opressors on The Day of Judgment

In Islam, oppression and wrongdoing will not go be overlooked. God talked about oppression very clearly in the Quran, which is the last revelation, and the literal word of god. In Chapter 21: Verse 47
He says:"We will set up the scales of justice for the Day of Resurrection, so that no soul will suffer the least injustice. And even if it's the weight of a mustard-seed, We will bring it up."

What Allah Tells You (and all mankind) in The Quran?

Muslims believe that the Quran is the literal word of Allah, which was a revelation through the head angel Gabriel to prophet Mohamed in 609–632 CE. In many passages from the Quran, Allah addresses all mankind. It is fundamental for mankind from all backgrounds, religions, and languages, to know what Allah is saying to them specifically to be able to make an informed decision on whether or not to follow Quran commandments.

Allah addresses mankind in the following ayat:

Who is Allah?

1: Allah is the most merciful, the most compassionate, the most generous, the self-subsisting, the greatest, the eternal, the all-knowing, the forbearing, and the wise.
