How beautiful are the mountains, these rivers
These plants, these trees
How beautiful they are!
How beautiful are these animals ... and these birds that Allah (swt) created?
Do you know that each one of these birds makes Tasbeeh (praises) Allah (swt)?
These pigeons that we see in front of us here
Each one of them makes Tasbeeh, praising Allah (swt)
Even if you walk and see them flying in the sky...
"Do they not see the birds above them with wings outspread and [sometimes] folded in? None holds them [aloft] except the Most Merciful. Indeed He is, of all things, seeing!" (Surat Al-Mulk: 19)
Who holds the birds when they fly in the sky?
He is Allah the most High and Gracious
These birds praise Allah (swt)!
"... And there is not a thing except that it exalts [ Allah ] by His praise, but you do not understand their [way of] praising..." (Al-'Israa: 44)
Yes you might travel, but you should ponder over these deep meanings
Think about these meanings
It is not that you just see birds in the sky; or see birds in a green land (and that's it)
Or see beautiful colors; red, and green, yellow (and that's it)
But think about the creation of Allah!
"This is the creation of Allah. So show Me what those other than Him have created..." (Luqman:11)
This is the creation of Allah!
Allah (swt) says: Tell Me
What those others than him have created?
What have they created?
This is here is the creation of Allah (swt)!
Look at how beautiful it is
Look at how when you are friendly and close to it, it comes close to you
And when you are merciful with it, it comes close to you
And for this reason the Prophet (salla Allah allyhi wa sallam)
One day he saw some of the young companions; what were they doing? They took a mother bird's young baby chick
And the bird was flapping its wings as it searched for its baby chicks
So the messenger of Allah (salla Allah allyhi wa sallam) went to the Sahabah asking them...
Who frightened her with her kids (by taking her kids)?
They said it was us O messenger of Allah
He (saw) said, give her back her children
“Those who are merciful will be shown mercy by the Merciful..." (Al-Tirmidhi)
Their rizq here has become abundant!
We ask Allah to give us the reward
