Obedience to Allah

The benefits of obedience to Allah are continued down to the descendents of men of piety.Allah Ta’ala says in the story of Hazrat Khizr as:

“And for the wall,it belonged to two orphan boys in the city,and there was beneath it a treasure belonging to them,and their parent had been righteous,and thy Lord intended that they should come to their full strength,and should bring forth their treasure,as a mercy from their Lord”(AL-KAHF:82)

We learn from the story that Hazrat Khizr as.was ordered by Allah to protect the property of the young boys,because their father has been righteous.Allah be glorified!The good effects of virtues are continued down to the coming generations of the pious.Now-a-day,people are greatly concerned about the material future of their children;throughout life,they struggle hard so that they should leave behind a good inheritance.The fact is that acts of virtue and devotion are the best inheritance to be left behind.For,by virtue of good deeds,one’s descendents are protected by Allah against all manner of misfortunes.

Even in this life,the pious men are blessed with the happy tidings of pleasure treasured up for them in Paradise.Allah Ta’ala says:

“Lo!Verily the friends of Allah are (those)on whom fear(comes)not,nor they grieve.Those who believe and keep their duty(to Allah).Theirs are good tidings in the life of the world and the Hereafter”(YUNUS:62-64)

A Hadith interprets the word “بُشْرَى”(literally meaning happy tidings)occuring in this verse as a good dream that fills one’s heart with pleasure.For instance,a person find himself entering Paradise in a dream,or someone dreams that he is standing in the presence of Allah looking towards His Glorious Face.Similarly,the word covers any pleasant dream that strengthen one’s hopes about the Hereafter,thus making his heart happier than ever before(Jazaa Ul A’maal By Maulana Asyraf Ali Thanwi Rahimahullah)
