Life's Journey can take us down many paths.

The Right Path is the one chosen by those who
Believe in God,

 and treat others with Peace and kindness.

Allah, (God), is The Source of Peace.

The Prophet Muhammad, Peace be Upon Him, said,

"We are all equals.

No one has superiority over any other person,
except by piety and good deeds."

And..

"Harm no one, lest harm may come to you."

(Last Sermon)

We are a Brotherhood of Mankind.

The Right Path is One of Peace.



 And, do not allow your oaths in the name of God to become an obstacle to virtue and God-consciousness,

 and the promotion of
 Peace between mankind.

 For, Allah is the All-Hearing, All-Knowing.


And because He is your Creator,

it rests with God alone to show you the Right Path..."

(Qur'an: 2:224, 16:9)
 
God will Guide those to the Truth whom He wills,

and He is the Most Compassionate, the Most Forgiving.



The Right Path of God
 
is one filled with Light,

Mercy,

and Truth. 




 "God is near unto those who have Faith in Him,
 
taking them out of Deep darkness into the Light...

(Qur'an 2:257)


Walk in peace with your Brothers, gently on His Path...

For,



"The Believers are but Brothers, so make peace
between your Brothers..."


"For, true servants of the Most Gracious 
 are those who walk gently on earth,

and who, whenever the UnKnowing speak to them, 
reply with words of peace."
 
(Qur'an 49:10, 25:63) 

And while, life's journey can be rocky and steep for us at times,

do not despair for He is there for us

 Guiding us back to the Straight Path --

 the Path of  Love and Peace.
 
And, He will not try us past our limits.

His Revelations... 



"through which God shows unto all  that seek His goodly acceptance
 the paths leading to salvation and, 
by His Grace,
brings them out of the depths of darkness into the Light
and guides them onto a Straight Path. "

(Qur'an 5:16)

And help thy brother and sister if they fall on the Right Path,

the kindness may one day be returned.

And, gently Guide others to the Truth of the Right Path for
it is those upon whom Allah grants His Infinite Mercy.

 For, God Loves those who Believe in Him
and follow His Revelations:



"Those are the ones upon whom
are blessings from their Lord
and mercy.

And it is those who
are Rightly Guided. "

(Qur'an 2:157)

Foster and nurture peace, compassion and understanding for

God's shares these same things with us.


The Straight Path is One of Faith and Belief in God.



"Verily, God will ward off all Evil from those who attain Faith; but, 
 Allah does not love anyone who betrays his Trust
and is void of thankfulness."

 (Qur'an 22:38)

We are forever thankful to Allah for all of His Creations,

The Heavens and the Earth, and do kind deeds in His Name.

For this is the Right Path.

The Right Path is
one filled with inner Peace and sanctity:

Peace in our Souls,

 and our world.



"Verily, as for those who attain to Faith and do Righteous deeds
 - the gardens of Paradise will be there to welcome them."

(Qur'an 18:107)

And, Believe in Him,
 for He alone is the Guide to the Straight Path.



 "And but for God's favor upon you and His grace,
 some of those who are not true to even themselves 
will try to lead your astray;
 yet none but themselves do they lead astray.

 Nor can they harm you in any way,
 since God has bestowed upon you from on High
 this Divine Writ and given you Wisdom,
and has imparted to you the knowledge
 of what you did not Know.
And God's favor upon you is tremendous indeed.

(Qur'an 4:113)


Evil may beckon to you in the darkness, however,

Be strong in Faith and follow God's Path,

the Path of Light and Peace.

And, love God,

for He does Love us.



Amen
