The world is nothing


You mean everything to me.
I love you. You are my life.

Beautiful heavy words, right?
Does this make you feel nice and loved, important to the person who tells you? Does it make you feel you’re valuable?
Alhamdulillaah. of course it will make us feel valuable but do not dive into it much, do not drown yourself to it so much, remember the state of a person’s qalb [heart] changes faster than the boiling of water.
There will be people who will come to you and make you feel the most beautiful feelings, love, happiness and all that bliss, but remember these people will still eventually leave, if you do not leave first then they might, indeed as our beloved Nabi Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wassalaam said, always remember death for that is the killer of all desires.
The people you love, your parents, your siblings, your husband, your children, relatives, not everyone will stay in this world, they will eventually leave, some of them may value you and some may not, and i’m not saying this to discourage or anything but this is the reality, the bitter truth and because i don’t want to comfort anyone with a lie.
I have seen and been told of parents who do not value their children, likewise with children who do not value their parents. Astagfirullaah. What has the world become? They value their friends over their parents, they value their status over their children. Authubillah!
You are here, reading this, and I want to let you know that you are one valuable person. If not to them, or to me or to anyone else, then be sure that to Allaah Azza Wa Jall you are VALUABLE! So never tell yourself, you are not, because the One Who Created the world and all that exists values your existence! 
What better thing is there than knowing that your Creator values you!
Know that you are not a mere creation for you are a creation that worships Allaah Azza Wa Jall, a person who submits and recognizes that there is only one God, Allaah Azza Wa Jall and His Messenger is Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wassalaam.
People in this world, even how much effort you do and fame and all these things they will never be fully satisfied, so do not drown yourself, do not give in yourself fully to these things, rather submit yourself to Allaah Azza Wa Jall, bow down and prostrate for indeed by the time you say Allahu’akbar when you start to pray Allaah Azza Wa Jall brags about you in the heavens among thousands and thousands of angels He says, LOOK AT MY SLAVE, He worships me!
Subhan’Allaah little do we realize how much pleasure we have given Allaah Azza Wa Jall, with that little action of us raising our hands and surrendering ourselves to Him! Do you get this from people of this dunya? Do we get little even little appreciation when we smile to them? People would even shun their faces or give a bitter look! Astagrifullaah!
You are valuable, maybe not to this world, but the owner of this world truly values you, so why not give all these effort you are doing to please the people of the dunya to the one who truly deserves your effort, to the One who with little effort gives you a handful of reward, that with the utterance of Alhamdulillaah, you are rewarded! Subhan’Allaah!
O my dear brothers and sisters in Islam, if you know someone who feels less of a value, or if you yourself feel you are given less of the value, then BOW DOWN and PROSTRATE to Allaah Azza Wa Jall and I tell you once you raise your head from your sujood, you will feel this indescribable feeling of relief that only Allaah Azza Wa Jall can give and only through sujood can you find!
Do not try so much to get value from the world, from dunya, when you know that dunya itself is nothing but the lowest, 
so rather than chase and give all these efforts for dunya to value you… GIVE IT TO ALLAAH AZZA WA JALL! START NOW! not tomorrow, not later, Right now!
At the end of the day, just ask yourself…
He (Allah Azza Wa Jall) values you, but do you value Him?
