SMILE - THE BASIC PRECURSOR TO ALLAH SWT HELP

ISDEV Director, Dr Shahir Akram Hassan.
It was the ISDEV Director monthly Tarbiyyah slot on 22 March, 2019 at 11am on that blessed Friday morning. Dr Shahir Akram Hassan, ISDEV Director took the chance to address all ISDEV members to be back to the basics - to smile.
In rapt attention to the address by ISDEV Director.
According to Dr Shahir Akram in his Tarbiyyah entitled "Pertolongan Allah SWT Bersama Jemaah" (Allah SWT help is with the Team), he covered his address with the events that shook the Muslim ummah recently in New Zealand and about us all living in Post-Normal Times now. In such situations of exceptional times, there is a more of a need to seek Allah SWT help in all the endeavours that is done for the sake of Allah SWT. However one basic condition to Allah SWT rendering help to HIS servants, is the existence of a jema'ah (team). 
A reminder to all ISDEV members - smile.
Referring to one hadith after another about the conditions of the "akhir zaman" (end of time), one pertinent signs is the absence of love. Taking the cue from a hadith that states one basic way to show love towards one another in a jema'ah is to give salam and to smile. Thus Dr Shahir Akram announced that this culture of Salam and Smile should always be an inherent culture practised by all in ISDEV. With such practises, it is hoped that the team spirit in ISDEV is strong and that Allah SWT help is always at hand. Aamiin.
