Divine guidance with awareness of Allah
The glorious Koran is the eternal miracle of Allah, revealed to guide the man to the right path. The wise book (kitab-ul-hakim) which is one of the titles of this sacred book teaches all aspects of life. It is the word of Allah Almighty and contains everything a man needs to know.
The serious seeker of wisdom will receive the guidance of Allah’s grace and mercy. The knowledge and wisdom of Allah are infinite and we are certainly lost without his direction. All that happens is according to the will and plan of Allah (Qadr). A person who refuses faith wants each step to go lower and lower. While a person who is seriously looking for guidance will find the next step easier at every step. We must seek the grace of Allah so that we may prosper in earthly life and in the hereafter. In, surat-al-Anam and surat-al-Insan, Allah speaks to us of His will:
6: 125 Those whom Allah (in His plan) wants to guide, He will open their breast to Islam; Those whom he wishes to leave astray, he tightens their breasts tightly and tightly, as if they had to ascend to heaven: this is how Allah will punish those who refuse to believe. 76:29 This is a warning: whoever wills it, let it take a path (right) to its Lord.
76:30 But you will not do it, except as Allah wills; for Allah is full of knowledge and wisdom. We are now aware that everything will happen according to the will and plan of Allah.
Is there any hope for a person who does not follow the right path but who wants it?
13:11 In truth, Allah will never change the condition of a people until they change it themselves (with their own soul).
Surat al-Ra’d encourages us to change our nature and our way of thinking. By doing this with a sincere heart, Allah will bring us from darkness to spiritual light:
57:28 O you who believe! Fear Allah and believe in his messenger, and he will give you a double portion of his mercy: he will give you a light by which you will walk (right on your path), and he will forgive you (your past) because Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
So what exactly are the conditions for receiving advice? Allah tells us in his book at the very beginning of chapter 2 of Surat al-Baqara.
2: 2 This is the book; in this, there are certainly indications for those who fear Allah
2: 3 Those who believe in the Invisible are steadfast in prayer and spend what we have provided them.
2: 4 And those who believe in the Apocalypse that was sent to you, and that was sent before your time, and that have in their hearts the assurance of the hereafter.
2: 5 They are (truly) guided by their Lord and they are the ones who will prosper.
2: 6 As for those who reject the faith, it is the same that you warn them or that you do not warn them; they will not believe.
2: 7 Allah has sealed their hearts and ears, and there is a veil over their eyes. great is the trouble they incur. The selective group mentioned in the above verses are the Mutaqeen, those who fear Allah for love.
We are specifically told that it is these people who have Taqwa in their hearts who will be guided. The conditions are:
1. That you believe in all that is invisible (ghaib). In Surat al Jinn, we are told that the knowledge of the invisible is only with Allah (72:26).
There are some things that a person can not understand or see, but we still need to believe it.
