What are YOU Grateful for Today?

YouTube - Surah Al-Hujurat Recitation by Sheikh Meshary Bin Rashid Al-Alfasy (with English translation of the meaning) Bismillah. What do we have to be grateful for today? Surah Al-Hujrat 49:15 "They make it a favour unto thee (Muhammad) that they have surrendered (unto Him). Say: Deem not your Surrender a favour unto me; but Allah doth confer a favour on you, inasmuch as He hath led you to the Faith, if ye are earnest." This serves as a reminder of the blessing of the gift we have in Islam and the opportunity to be chosen to work for Allah's dean. If it wasn't Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala guiding us, we would be in the darkness of Shirk. If it wasn't Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala guiding us, we would be living as many people; a life with no goals or purpose. I cried all the way through it.
