Toobaa is tumbling through the peaks and troughs of learning curves and will be back soon.
Toobaa is for the Strangers
"For those who believe and work righteousness is (every) blessedness (toobaa) and a beautiful place of (final) return."
(The Holy Qur'an, Surat Ar-Ra'd, 13:29)* * *
The Prophet Muhammad (s) said:
“Islam began as something strange and will revert to being something strange, so 'toobaa' to the strangers."
(Abu Hurayrah, Sahih Muslim)
Toobaa is Blessedness
"Blessedness": Tuba: an internal state of satisfaction, an inward joy which is difficult to describe in words, but which reflects itself in the life of the good man, through good and ill fortune, through good report and evil. And then, there is always the final goal to which his eyes are turned, the beautiful Home of rest in the Hereafter, after this life's struggles are over. That goal is Allah Himself.
Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Toobaa is a Tree in Paradise.
"Toobaa is the name of a tree in Paradise. Some linguists say its name was derived from the root taaba-yateebu طاب – يطيب which means ‘to be pleasant/ delightful’, as though to indicate that it will be delightful for the dwellers of Paradise to take shelter under it. The word Toobaa is of the [feminine] pattern fu’laa فعلى, and this is a superlative pattern indicating the topmost end of a thing.
Thus, Toobaa refers to the most extreme type of pleasure and delight; when one reclines and relaxes and takes shade under this tree it will be incomparable to any relaxation ever taken before – a reward awaiting the believers."
