Don’t be foolish and expose every blessing of your life to everyone and think that they’ll be happy for you. Some will, but many won’t. The evil eye is real. Learn to keep things private and not to share too much with those who could possibly harm you.
Each time we're hurt, we tend to blame others. It's always someone else's fault. Don’t fall into that trap. Learn to be accountable. Take charge of your life and your own shortcomings. The Almighty knows the truth. Don't blame the innocent.

Allah will place people & situations in your path. They’re meant to test you until you become the person you’re meant to be.
Qur'an 25:20 👇
وَجَعَلْنَا بَعْضَكُمْ لِبَعْضٍ فِتْنَةً أَتَصْبِرُونَ
We have made some of you a trial for others. Will you ˹not then˺ be patient?.

Some people can be very difficult to deal with. They will hurt you with their words and actions. It’s easy to just be angry and shut them out of your lives. But at times you can’t. They may be family members. Remember, they are a test from the Almighty. Will you be patient?

Allah will put different people in your life to test you.
The sincere, the hypocrite, the pretender, the wise, those with hidden agenda.
You will learn about each one just as He had intended for you. So be wary of the company you keep.
Be conscious of who’s around you!

You have survived betrayal, slander, fake friends, etc. It’s all part of the Almighty’s plan to show you who should remain in your life and who shouldn’t. Be mindful and always remember to never take anyone for granted.
Never mind what you’re going through now. Bear it with beautiful patience. Why? Because one day, you will realize that it had to happen the way it did to give you the lessons you needed to grow. Remember, what doesn't break you only makes you stronger.
Make sure you’re in the company of those who touch your heart and nourish your soul. There aren’t too many of such people around. So choose your company wisely.
Be kind. Be forgiving. Be happy not just for yourself but for others as well. Be grateful for the many bounties the Almighty has sent your way. Embrace whatever trials He sends you. There are lessons and blessings in all of them if you keep an open mind.
There’s no need to show off how pious you are. Keep your relationship with your Maker private. Nobody knows your struggle but Him. Nobody knows the temptations that come your way but Him. So keep striving. Keep going.
Don’t feel discouraged. It's natural for us to stumble, lose hope and get impatient during trials. It can happen to anyone. But if we remember that the Almighty is in full control, we will slowly but surely see the hidden blessings behind the trials.
Don't waste time being angry about your problems. Remember, life is a series of tests. Instead, use that energy to find solutions. Pray for His guidance. He'll find a way out for you.
Some ask how can patience be beautiful? It's tiring, painful, saps your energy, you wait and wait and it drains you. But it's beautiful simply because you trust the Almighty fully. You may not understand His Plan but you know it will lead to a good end.

« Look to those below you, and not to those above, as it is more suitable to remember the Blessings of Allah granted to you.».
