﷽
Flee to Allah ﷻ
Allah ﷻ says
وَ قَالَ إِنِّ ذَاهِبٌ إِلٰى رَبِّي سَيَهدِينِ
And he said Indeed I will go to my Lord, He will guide me!
[37:99]
_
The words of Khaleel Allah Ibrahim عليه السلام,
Filled only with Tawakkul in Allah ﷻ! That his Lord would guide him,
Imam Tabari رحمه الله writes:
Means, He is saying “Indeed I’m a migrator from the land of my people to Allah; i.e. to the sacred land, whilst he was departing from them and was isolating from them for worship”
_
After his people threw him in the fire,
After he said
حَسۡبُنَا ٱللَّهُ وَنِعۡمَ ٱلۡوَكِیلُ
Sufficient for me is Allah the disposer of affairs.
And after Allah ﷻ commanded the fire,
يَٰنَارُ كُونِى بَرْدًۭا وَسَلَٰمًا عَلَىٰٓ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ
Oh Fire! Be cool and peaceful upon Ibrahim!
[21:69]
Such is the Tawakkul of Ibrahim عليه السلام
_
And Allah ﷻ says
فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ
Flee to Allah
[51:50]
Ibn ‘Abbas رضي الله عنه said
فروا إلى الله بالتوبة من ذنوبكم
Flee to Allah with repentance from your sins.
_
Hussain ibn Al Fadl رحمه الله said:
احترزوا من كل شيء دون الله فمن فر إلى غيره لم يمتنع منه
Flee from everything besides Allah, for whomever flees to other than Him will not escape His punishment.
_
Abu Bakr Al Warraaq رحمه الله said
فروا من طاعة الشيطان إلى طاعة الرحمن
Flee from the obedience of Shaytaan to the obedience of Allah [Ar Rahman]
_
Flee to Allah ﷻ! Rely upon Him for guidance, for solace and contentment and happiness!
_
Imam As Sa’di رحمه الله said:
And Allah has named returning to Him ‘fleeing’, because in returning to other than Him are things of fear and hate, and in the returning to Him are things of love, safety, happiness and success.
إِنِّي لَكُمْ مِنْهُ نَذِيرٌ مُبِينٌ
Indeed I am from Him a clear warner for you.
[51:50]
Imam Al Qurtubi رحمه الله writes
أي أنذركم عقابه على الكفر والمعصية
Meaning, I am warning you of His punishment upon disbelief or disobedience.
_
Ya Ibn Adam!
Return to Allah ﷻ and happiness will return to you, contentment will embrace you, return to Allah ﷻ and He will accept you.
_
May Allah ﷻ make us among those who turn back to Him in sincere repentance and may He ﷻ accept our repentance.
آمِيْن يَارَبَّ الْعَالَمِينْ
