Allaah knows exactly what to give you to help you return to Him. The events in your life are purposeful, appropriate and non-random.

Great reward comes with great trials. When Allaah loves a people, He tests them, and whoever accepts it attains His pleasure, whereas whoever shows discontent with it incurs His wrath.

[at-Tirmidhi (2396)]

[Ra'eesa Moolla @raeesa_moolla]

Nothing lasts forever...
Not our jobs, our relationships, our hard times, our good times, our fortunes, our fame, our enemies, and our lives.
Only Allaah is forever.
That's why remembering Allaah puts our lives into perspective.

[Ra'eesa Moolla @raeesa_moolla]

Beautify your character in a way that others don't pay attention to your weaknesses.

[Ra'eesa Moolla @raeesa_moolla]

“Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.”

[Ra'eesa Moolla @raeesa_moolla]

A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials.

*"We swiftly comply with the law for the sake of our health, but are slow to comply with the Deen for the sake of Allaah."*

– Shaykh Dawood Seedat حفظه اللّٰه

TRUTH is like surgery, it may hurt, but it cures.
While a LIE is like a painkiller, it gives temporary relief but has side effects later.

[Ra'eesa Moolla @raeesa_moolla]

“The person who treats others kindly and thinks well of them, will find that his intention will remain true, he will feel at ease, his heart will be sound and Allaah will protect him from evil and calamity.”
