When Allah grants us the sense to ask Him for forgiveness, then He has granted us a huge favor. It's a sign that He wants to forgive us.
Nouman Ali KhanPeople of dua are optimistic by definition. They know that dua and thoughts like 'unlikely' or 'impossible' don't coexist.
Nouman Ali KhanIf we show Allah just a little bit of gratitude, He tells us, 'I will increase you, and increase you, and increase you, I swear to it. If you could only show Me the least bit of gratitude.'
Nouman Ali KhanHow do you know if Allah has forgiven you? When someone sincerely asks for forgiveness, then there is no doubt they are forgiven. It is guaranteed. Never doubt if Allah forgave you. First of all be sincere and genuine, and if you meet that condition then there is no doubt.
Nouman Ali KhanThe question is grateful to who? You would think grateful to Allah, but Allah didnโt mention Himself. So it could be grateful to Allah, grateful to your parents, grateful to your teachers, grateful for your health, grateful to friends. Grateful to anyone whoโs done anything for you. Grateful to your employer for giving you a job. Appreciative. Grateful is not just an act of saying Alhamdulilah. Grateful is an attitude, itโs a lifestyle, itโs a way of thinking. Youโre constantly grateful.
