The quote for Day 5 of Ramadan from my box of things to think about is:
“Never
think that any request you have is too much for Allah. HE says “Be” and it becomes”
I
am not sure of the origin of this quote but it can be found on this page. My first thought is that as a Muslim the
message in the quote is obvious - Allah (SWT) can do, and grant, anything. My second thought was that although this is
the case, perhaps we don’t do His generosity and greatness justice in our
asking of Him. We ask only what we can
imagine is possible – what seems realistic or the little we think we deserve. This,
when we could ask for anything and it would be nothing for the Giver.
What
better time than these blessed days of Ramadan to ask for great things, for those
things that are out of reach, for these things we are too scared to ask for, for
those things we yearn for but don’t feel we deserve.
May
Allah (SWT) give us the opportunity and courage to ask with all of our heart
and soul, for everything we need and desire, trusting He is the one that
provides and loves to give.
