Let’s face it. We fight battles daily. No one knows about them except the Almighty. Never forget that He is All-Knowing and He can help all. There is no pain or struggle that He is not aware of. He never ignores your pain. Remember, you’re not alone, even on your darkest days!
Now is the time to get closer to the Almighty. Commit yourself to depend on Him and repent to Him. Speak to Him about your woes and fears and anxieties. He will shine a light in your darkness. Don’t worry. Don’t fret. He knows what’s going on. Stay connected to Him always!
When Allah says in the Quran:"With hardship there are (many) eases" (94:6), He is saying that *every* situation, no matter how difficult, also contains *many* elements of ease. By changing the lens we use to see our situation, we change our state from despair to gratitude.
Don’t ask the Almighty for something and then complain about what follows. If you want to achieve your goals, you have to go through setbacks, failure, diversions; but these don’t last. Nothing does actually. So don’t make permanent decisions based on temporary situations!
Trusting the Almighty when things are smooth & going well is easy. But when things are bleak & uncertain, what will you do? Do you crumble & cave in? That’s one of the greatest tests. He’s watching to see how you react. Have firm faith. Have your heart in the right place!
You have to admit that the closest you’ve been to the Almighty was during your darkest days. When you felt you had no other option, when you were facing life trials. Get into the habit of making Him a part of your life. In good & bad times. You’ll have a different view of life!
For every pain you endure,
For every fear that grips your heart,
For every worry that keeps you awake,
For every loss that you grieve over,
For anything & everything that you can’t handle, leave it to the Lord of the Worlds. He’s the best disposer of affairs for us!
If a man comes out of his house carrying a burden of sins like the mountains of Tihamah, then when he hears some knowledge he fears Allah and repents, he will go back home with no sins on him. So do not forsake the gatherings of the scholars. - Umar Ibn Al-Khattab RadiAllahuanhu
Don’t wait to turn back to the Almighty. Do it today. It’s as good a day as any; the sooner, the better. Seek Him. Thank Him & you’re on the road to a better life. It’s a misconception to wait for things to be prefect before you pray. Things will never be perfect. Start now!
Don’t be afraid of failure. It shows you’re human. This life is anything but perfect. So failure teaches you there’s room to grow and become better. With every shortcoming, we can learn something. Remember, your mistakes don’t define you. The truth is they teach you!
Quit worrying about what’s to come. It makes no sense and adds zero value to your life. Trust the Almighty, the best of Planners to work it all out. Stay focused on your goals and do your best in everything. Take it one step at a time! You’ll find things falling into place!
Many dwell on their past to such an extent that it ruins their future. Learn from your past so you don’t commit the same mistakes. But you must not stay stuck there; move beyond all that regret & pain because to do otherwise would be to waste what He has blessed you with - life!
