Question:
Do you ever look at something and feel the need to say "Subhan'Allah"?

For example, when I look at my cats and they either yawn or sneeze, I get all sentimental and crazy and "pooosssh".
Honestly, it just comes out of me. I can't stop myself from screaming "Subhan'Allah"!

I mean, how can these little creatures, that run into doors and drink out of the toilet seat, yawn and sneeze like humans do? They're just so cute and fluffy. They're the wonderful creation of Allah.

How about you, do you ever look at something random and think directly of Allah? You know, it's so amazing that you suddenly feel the need to praise and glorify Him with all your heart?

Sister, I feel the same way you do.

Whenever I see my cats yawning or stretching or taking a bath...I'm so amazed by Allah's creation.

Whenever I see any animals, like birds, I say "Subhan'Allah." I appreciate and am thankful for all life on Earth.



And I don't just say it for animals, for plants as well, when I see a tree that looks so old and is so huge, I saw "Subhan'Allah."

I say "Subhan'Allah" when I see beautiful/colorful roses and flowers growing out of something like DIRT...I'm just so amazed by all of Allah's (swt) creation.



And I also say it when other things happen to me or when Allah (swt) blesses me and my family with things like food.

yes. i say it a lot. simply because, many things amaze me. and it is just even more amazing knowing that Allah created them, and in janneh, there are things even more amazing.

for example, the wind. yesterday, it was very windy in my area. when a squirrel flew off the tree due to the wind, i said Subhan Allah because a simple wind, was powerful enough to get a squirrel off balance.

when i take a walk in the park. the beautiful deer run around, and the babies run to their mother's safety. i cant do anything but say Subhan Allah. even animals, feel safety with their mothers.

when it rains, all the animals rejoice at the water, and the plants grow. subhan Allah, we all benefit from it.

when i see a child, born different than the rest of us. all i can say is Subhan Allah. Allah has instilled patience in many parents' hearts. can you imagine being the parent of a child who has physical deformations? you certainly need all the patience in the world. i have two younger cousins, who have physical defects. i adore my aunt for all the patience she has endured. their situation is very difficult. when they were first born, all the doctors said that there would be no surgery for them. years later, my aunt was told that there might be a possible surgery that may, inshalla, help them. they got her hopes up. after examining the girls, the surgery wouldnt work for them. i say Subhan Allah at the patience my aunt has.

i can go on and on with my lists.

the beautiful radiant moon along with the stars against a clear dark sky, just leaves me in awe. sometimes, i fall asleep while watching the moon at my window. Subhan Allah

Subhan Allah w be Hamdeh. so many miracles of life.

the Qur'an is a miracle itself



have a lovely day

All the time, and did you know that you get rewarded every time you say it? Subbhanallah



As for the new sis Fashion b.. the word means Glorifying Allah Its a word we say every time you feel the need to Glorify Him or even if you just feel like saying it to get by through the day.



"Glory to Allah" -- this phrase is often used when praising God or exclaiming awe at His attributes, bounties, or creation. It can also be used as a phrase of exclamation (ie. "Wow!").

It's a form of Zikr, I cant help myself, whenever I marvel at the brilliance and spleandour of Allah's creation or an observance of His wisdom I utter SubhanAllah, it particularly happens when I listen to Islamic lectures and the speaker makes a good point and often Im not alone as many of the listeners utter it as well. SubhanAllah

All the wonders of Allah's creation definitely deserve our praise and awe via the expression "Subhanallah!". Allah's creations are all beyond human comprehension and knowledge to gauge, and they deserve our praise. Who else other than Allah could have created such wonders that we see everyday around us?

Yes i do .. when i think of the human body

that creation is amazing .. if you study more about it the more amazed you are and the more common you'd say "Sunhan Allah"



when your sick .. your body reacts in different ways ..

when your angry or embaressed your body also reacts to it .. you get red and your heart starts to beat faster .. all a reaction to your action

the nerves

the heart



wow .. :)

subhan allah

Yeah that happens a lot. :)



Also, sometimes I have the urge to say Assalaam Alaikum to my non-Muslim friends. I sya it so often as a greeting, and when they greet me with a hello, I often get a bit offended until I'm like, ohh I remember :P
