This is the true story of Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, which I read in a newspaper and I am going to share with you.
Canal infront of House
Womens Faith
Every day during the month of Ramadan, a virtuous woman would gather all the children before breaking the fast and tell them to do and say whatever I say and do.
Then she would raise her hands in prayer and say: Oo my Allah give us home with a canal in front of it.
All the children would raise their hands and say: Oh God give us home with a canal in front of it.
The woman’s husband laughed and said: It makes sense to talk about your house, but what does it mean to have a canal in front of your house? Where will the canal come from in this desert area?
The wife replied: What do you mean by that? This is a matter between us and Allah. Don’t interfere.
That is what the Lord says:
Whatever I ask you to give me, whatever comes to me, we will ask and ask again and again.
In the same way, she would gather the children and pray for them and also for the children. Ramadan is over. One day her husband said: Now tell me, where is your own house? (womens faith)
The woman replied with great conviction: Allah Almighty will surely give us our home, He will fulfill all our desires.
She further states that: When I finished fasting six days of Shawwal, a very strange thing happened. My husband was leaving the mosque after Asr prayers when a man stopped him. (womens faith)
My husband did not know this man. He said: I am one of the richest people in the city. I have a house. I live with my father in half of the house but half of the house is empty. Allah has blessed me and my children with His bounty. We don’t need this half house. I have come today with the intention of giving half a house as a gift to the last person who leaves the mosque after prayers. Now you are the last person, then i requested to you accept that house as a gift. (womens faith)
We were hesitant to buy a house without paying the price, so he said: If you are not satisfied without paying the price, pay as much as you can easily. (womens faith)
Well, we had some money in our possession and asked some relatives as a loan which was about eight thousand riyals and handed over the money to this man and now we have become the owner of this half house. The house was in a very beautiful area.
The fact is that whoever remembers Allah with a sincere heart, Allah surely hears his call. We took up residence in our new home.
But one thing bothered me a lot. There should have been a canal in front of the house I asked for from Allah. (womens faith)
I got the house but there was no canal in front of that house. I contacted a cleric and politely asked: Allah says: “Whatever you ask of Me, I will grant it to you. I kept praying to Allah for a house on the bank of the canal. I found a house but there is no canal in front of the house.
These religious scholars were astonished at my firm belief and acceptance of my prayers and asked, “What is in front of your house at this time?” (womens faith)
I said thankfully in my tone: There is a beautiful mosque in front of our house at the moment.
The cleric smiled and said: It is a canal in the form of a mosque.
I was very surprised at this and asked: “How is that?” (womens faith)
He narrated this blessed hadith as an explanation: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to a Sahaabah: If a person’s house is on the bank of a canal and he bathes in it five times a day, will dirt remain on his body?
The companions said: No, or the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) will not leave a trace of dirt on the body of this man.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: This is the case with the five prayers through which Allaah removes sins.
Tears of joy and gratitude flowed from my eyes after hearing this hadith and explanation from the mouth of the great scholar. Indeed, my Lord has given me a house in front of the canal. (womens faith)
In the last words, this woman advised that after charity, supplication temporarily averts death if it is done with the belief that Allah will surely fulfill my supplication.
In the end, this is the prayer that Allah Almighty will do better for us.
