[Anas @TheCleanestFit]

These words from Ali ibn Abi Talib (رضي الله عنه) are a masterclass that every Muslim needs to internalize, especially in our time where people are obsessed with the fleeting crumbs of this dunya.

You see the wealthy man flaunting his riches, his heart echoing the arrogance of Qarun who said: "I was only given this because of knowledge I have."

By الله, Rziq has never been about intellect, effort, cleverness, or strategy. Its a divine distribution from the All-Wise, the All-Knowing, given to whom He wills.

I've seen brilliant, hardworking men squeezed in their rizq, and I've seen the lazy and the foolish showered with it.

Those who make the pursuit of this world their only concern are the ones lacking in intellect.

If your day is spent in a desperate, anxious pursuit of a rizq that cannot be forced, then you are the one who is cheated. You'll never receive a single grain more or less than what الله has written for you.

This is Aqdah every Muslim must hold: your Rziq is in the Hand of الله. Whether you chase it with the intensity of a starving man or flee from it, it will find you just as surely as your death will find you.

Stop making yourself a slave to work, to bosses, or to human means. When you realize that the Provider is الله alone, you stop humiliating yourself before anyone but الله.

If the cause you rely on today disappears, the Creator of that cause will provide through another. He is the Cause of all causes, the All-Provider, with no partner.

Focus on the Akhirah. Seek the pleasure of الله. Let your heart be at rest knowing your share is secured by the One who created you.

Whoever attaches his heart to the means (Al-Asbab) rather than the Creator of those means, الله will leave him to those means.

Consequently, he becomes humiliated, enslaved to them, and he shall attain nothing except what الله has already decreed for him. Indeed, the Shirk of means is among the most prevalent forms of Shirk, we ask الله for Al-afiyah.

Live with dignity, live free, and fear no one but the One who provides for you and sustains your soul.

obsessive crushes tell you what traits you want for yourself btw, it’s rarely about the other person

Indecision kills productivity much more than you imagine.

Urgh arriving at work and immediately counting the hours before going back home is a badd sign

[𝒟𝒶𝓋𝒾𝒹 🧸 @Justtdavid_]

the way life continues after someone dies is one of the most humbling and frightening realities.

[ૐ @BirkinAura]

ever since i started measuring my success by how deeply i slept, how often i laugh, how much beauty i notice,
how connected i feel to God, how frequently my heart feels at peace,
my life improved.

NOBODY WARNED ME AT 35. SO I'M WARNING YOU.

1. Your parents are not side characters.

[Arwen☀️ @AstroArwennn]

Erkekler basit varlıklardır. Eğer sizi seviyorlarsa sizin için her şeyi yaparlar. Ancak sevmiyorlarsa , dünyanın en ilgisiz, en umursamaz insanı olurlar.

All my friends are buying new hybrid electric fancy cars and here I am just adding more stupid projects in my life to have more headache about. HO ain't just hard enough apparently. I just need to work on something that I can call my own.

Realizing 11pm is no longer “early” it is a direct threat to my tomorrow

[M. @ayosznn]

may your “let me just try” work out beautifully.

[Kingmaker @MindHealthMaker]

Good people have high levels of empathy, but once that empathy is exhausted, they switch to a state of objective observation. They see you for exactly who you are, without the filter of their love. This is why their anger feels so cold, it is the absence of the warmth you took for granted

[— whatsername @ofennwu]

Extra exhausted and lethargic today I'm on my last day of tagging and I'm burntt the fuck out bro all demons are at my heel telling me to just get my car keys and go home and sleep for eternity

More of your career trajectory will be decided by the person you marry and the health that you sustain, rather than hours you put into work

[— whatsername @ofennwu]

I see the truth in this

[Just a Dude Who Invests @DudeWhoInvests]

I literally can’t get this out of my head

[M @girlpov]

it's like what tarkovsky said

[Jalal Qazi @JalalQazi]

Normalize being a boring Muslim. Go to bed after Isha. Wake before Fajr. Sit with Qur’an to understand. Take dhikr walks. Your life doesn’t have to be loud to have barakah. Sometimes the magic is in being unreachable. In becoming the Muslim nobody can disturb.

[yimika| @yimikaaaa]

You MUST by all means develop a strong opinion of yourself so you don't end up internalizing the beliefs others have of you.
