You can tell when Allaah is purifying a person through a hardship or sickness. They grow softer in heart and manners, their vision for this world decreases and they start to see the expansiveness of the next life and so they become kinder to themselves and others.
Donโt fret no matter what youโre going through. Nothing lasts in this temporary world. Hardship will turn to ease. Your prayers may be delayed but theyโre never rejected. The best people often had difficult beginnings. But with patience & good attitude, they have the best ending!
Lazing around for three days and then making a herculean effort on day four that restores your average progress to what a moderately inept person would have achieved with consistent effort, thatโs what itโs all about.
