الْوَاجِدُ
Al-Wājid — The Finder
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَالًّا فَهَدَى
Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee)
Surah Aḍ-Ḍuḥā (93:7)
النية
Today, I will thank Al-Wājid for finding me and keeping me on this journey.
تأمّل
Al-Wājid integrated: He found you and He kept you. Through 349 days, through every distraction, every doubt, every missed day — He kept bringing you back to these pages. That is Al-Wājid: the Finder who does not let go of what He finds.
في هذه الآية
He found you — and every day since, He has been guiding you deeper.
دعاء
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي هَدَانَا لِهَذَا وَمَا كُنَّا لِنَهْتَدِيَ لَوْلَا أَنْ هَدَانَا اللَّهُ
And We remove whatever rancour may be in their hearts. Rivers flow beneath them. And they say: The praise to Allah, Who hath guided us to this. We could not truly have been led aright if Allah had not guided us. Verily the messengers of our Lord did bring the Truth. And it is cried unto them: This is the Garden. Ye inherit it for what ye used to do
Surah Al-A'rāf (7:43)
The words of the people of Paradise — looking back on the guidance that brought them home.
حديث
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'Allah is more delighted with the repentance of His servant than a man who lost his camel in a desert and then finds it.'
— Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2747
