Bismillah

As humans, our focus tends to be more on our outer coverings than on our inside.

We put more effort on looking good, wearing beautiful clothing and especially when we are outside in the public we ensure that we are looking good. However, unfortunately we forget to take the same care of our hearts.

Keeping our bodies clean and being neat and tidy is important as cleanliness is half of iman however the same cleanliness is required for our hearts.

For when we don't focus on the heart, it gets dirty too and the dirt of sins is difficult to remove unless we put daily effort on cleansing it.

Just like we adorn our bodies with beautiful clothing we need to adorn our hearts with the remembrance of Allah.

We need to make our hearts shine with the light of Allah.

And just as we perfume our bodies with different scents, we need to scent our hearts with the beautiful words of our Lord.

And Allah knows best.

A reminder first and foremost for myself.
