Family-Hood

[Shana]

Over the years believing in this religion one element has truly manifested itself more and more. Unity and familyhood. Meaning that we are all one unit. I never really understood nor knew what it meant to be one body. Imam Ahmed Al Hassan (from him is peace) said "The believer is one soul split in many bodies".
Living in the community of Aba Al Sadiq (PBUH) he has taught me that God wants all of his children every single one. The success of my brothers and sisters is my success and visa versa. It is all for one and one for all,
Sometimes it easy to build a relationship based on an exchange if I do such and such I expect such and such, what Aba Al Sadiq (PBUH) is teaching me is that be free even from this chain. Love unconditionally and give without any expectation of return. This is more than sister-hood, or brother-hood this is Family-hood!
