Subject: [Masjid Tucson] Submission weekly reminder In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Peace be upon you, Having a group of people with the same religious beliefs that you congregate with regularly is a blessing from God. We learn from each other, we get support and encouragement, and wonderful reminders about God. Quranic Study Groups [Quran 18:28] You shall force yourself to be with those who worship their Lord day and night, seeking Him alone. Do not turn your eyes away from them, seeking the vanities of this world. Nor shall you obey one whose heart we rendered oblivious to our message; one who pursues his own desires, and whose priorities are confused. But as God tells us Satan is our worst enemy and will always try to drive a wedge among the believers and divide them in any way possible. Which means we have to make extra efforts to be devoted to God alone, and resist the whispers of satan when he tries to tell us to treat a fellow brother or sister poorly. Treat Each Other Amicably [Quran 17:53] Tell My servants to treat each other in the best possible manner, for the devil will always try to drive a wedge among them. Surely, the devil is man's most ardent enemy.
