Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Esteemed readers! The requirement of this blessed hadith is that when a person reflects that his Lord is Allah Ta'ala, his religion is Islam, and his Messenger is Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, then a wave of comfort and happiness should stir within his heart and being, which he should feel both spiritually and physically, and then he should express gratitude to Allah Ta'ala for this blessing. However, observation shows that common people are completely heedless of this very concept.
