The Stories
MOTHERS WOMB
Ar-Rahman originates from the word ar-Rahm, which means the mother's womb. A child in the womb is taken care of in every possible way. A mother will do everything to protect her unborn child. Similarly, Allah loves us and takes care of us far beyond our mother. So "which of the favors of your Lord will you deny?".
SHEEPSKIN
Inspired the story of Ali RA and Fatima RA. Did you know? The only thing they owned was a sheepskin to sleep on. Who would be more deserving of the luxuries of the world if not Fatima RA, the queen of Jannah? But a kingdom that will be taken away at any moment is not a kingdom at all.
The hardships of this world were taking a toll on her body so Ali RA suggested that she ask for help from the Prophet PBUH, after a battle. So she asked her father Prophet Muhammad PBUH if they could have a helper. The Prophet PBUH said, “shall I give you something even better? Say Subhanallah 33 times, Alhumdulillah 33 times, and Allahuakbar 34 times before you sleep”.
