A Dream
One night I had a dream. I dreamed I was walking along the beach with Allah (swt), Across the sky flashed scenes, from my life For each scene, I noticed there were two sets of footprints in the sand one belonging to me and the other to Allah swt.
When the last scene of my life flashed before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand. I noticed that many times along the path of my life there was only one set of footprints. The main thing I noticed that it was at the very lowest and saddest times in my life. This really bothered me..
I asked Allah (swt) about it. " my dear Allah, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints, That mean during the most troublesome times I was on my own because there was only one set of foot prints, I don't understand why when I needed you most you left me..
Allah (swt) replied, I love you meray banday and I was with you all the times and I will never leave you.
And during your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints it was my footprints not yours, Because at those times I carried u in my arms..
I said oh my dear Allah I really love you.
