Remembering Allah At Every Moment
Monday October 20, 2008
During a recent vacation, I caught sight of this road sign out in the middle of the Saudi Arabian desert. The sign reminds travelers to "trust God" (tawak-kalto-ul-Allah). Many other similar signs are posted at intervals throughout the highways of the Muslim world, reminding travelers to "thank God," "praise God," and "seek forgiveness from God." These simple phrases are frequently on a Muslim's lips, as we are encouraged to remember God's blessings and seek His help throughout the day and night. The Qur'an gives some recommended phrases to use in these personal prayers (du'a). Of course, a Muslim may also remember God at any time with personally-chosen words, in any language.

Salam A,
trust God “(tawak-kalto-ul-Allah)” is to beleive on God after doing your duty or effort with sincerety. Some people does’t peform their duties and say we trust on God, this is not tawak-kalto-ul-Allah.

How many signal plate as this one we need in subway of 10 000 km? And how many photos of religious leaders as accompaniment?
No one.(no mystification or fetishism stiff).
If we read the Du’a as was practiced by prophet Muhammad(Pbuh), we can concluded that every action in his day is accompanied by call to Allah with a name of Allah(sleep, wake ,eat, wear, seeing natural event…).
We can feel his active speech that reflects an emotional feeling that varies from situation to another.
He is conscious what he say and why, the rhythm and the harmony of his dua, for every situation we can imagine it by different versions of call for the same situation.
The common line in all this is the devotion of God (Allah).
Social impact:
1. Remembrance and to be vigilant toward sins
2. Auto control , auto suggestion
3. Transformation the parole (mind or tongue) to good action toward the society.

“Where are those who love one another through My glory? Today I shall give them shade in My shade, it being a day when there is no shade but My shade”
The recitation of the blessing(Salat) upon Muhammad is also Dua, as reconnaissance, and expecting his intercession(Shafaa).
Allah Sali Ala Muhammad.
Are Muslims aware that this same focus on the Lord (Allah)is fundamental to Christianity?
Try as much as possible to eschew evil & you will be at peace with ALLAH.
He is very merciful and caring.
Try your best and leave the rest for GOD, he will take care of it.
Love GOD he will also love you, think about him, he will also think about you, submit to him and he will make your steps very solid on earth… That is his promise..
Taqwa is to be ware of God knowing & believing that he sees your every move although you cann’t see him. In your taqwa you’ll try your best to perform everything in your daily life to the best you can, Ihsan, to please Allah …
Hope this helps..
remebrance of Allah (SWT)makes one to be cautious of sayings and actions.i hope muslim leaders in most developing economy will learn from the teachings of prophet(saw).
Alhamdulillah.This is basic component of a muslim.If al of us do such way that remember Allah Almighty as his all beutiful names,so we can control our nafs as well as evil doing inshallah–surah Bakarah-verse152.May Allah help us to be a practicing muslim.
