Thank God for His guidance

Bismillah.

O son, Allahu Akbar. Allah is Great. He teaches and guides very kindly and at the right time, just when you need it. Everything happens at the appointed time according to His absolutely brilliant Divine plan.

This du'a of the Qur'an from Al-A'raf 43 is very meaningful to me for many reasons. One who has been engulfed by darkness (like I) would surely appreciate the slightest ray of light.

Indeed, the best gift one could ever receive is the gift of guidance, the gift of nur, the gift of light from the Lord.

Alhamdulillahil lazi hada na li haza

wama kunna linah tadi ya

lau laa an hada nallah

la qad jaa at Rusulu Rabbina bil haqq

Praise belongs to God who guided us to this;

we would never have been guided
if Allah had not guided us!
Indeed, our Lord’s Messengers came with the truth."

Allahu Akbar!
