2 years agoRamadan Advice - Where is Your Heart? by Shaykh Hamza Yusuf (via Zaytuna)
“But the real question is not, Where is God?
It is, Where are the helpers of God? Where are the people of God? Where are the people that have the resources, that have the willpower, that have the experience and ability to transform the world, to be literally Ansar, helpers for God?
That’s the question. Not, Where is God?
God is there, God has always been there, God has never been absent.
The question is, Where are we?
Because just as people can say, Where is God…, God has every right to ask, Where are you?
And that’s really what this month is about. It’s about asking, Where is your heart?
Where is your heart? […]
God is near, and this is a blessed month. […]
Ask yourself that question, Where is my heart?
Because the heart belongs to Allah.
The heart is God.”
