I studied people who:
• never miss Fajr
• memorized the Qur'an
• resist their phone effortlessly.
They all have ONE skill in common.
And most people don't even know it exists.
Here's their secret:
Imagine if Musa (as), while facing the deep blue sea, surrendered to Fir'aun, simply because it was the “realistic” thing to do. But He didn't.
Because it's easy to take the next step when things are in your favor. But trusting Him when all odds are against you, that's tawwakul.
Kun faya kun.
Suddenly, Allah makes your affairs easy.
Suddenly, Allah clears your path.
Suddenly, Allah cures your illness.
Suddenly, Allah brings your spouse into your life.
Suddenly, Allah answers your du’as.
That is how powerful, how generous, and how loving Allah is.
Soulmates always end up together no matter how much love is lost, no matter how distant you become. You lose each other to find each other again. That’s what it’s like when someone is meant for you. If you leave, or they leave, you will return to each other forever… If it’s destined.
To the brokenhearted,
Adam needed Hawa (Eve) to enjoy living in the Garden
- The need for love and intimacy is not codependency
Maryam’s greatest honor was being the mother of isa
- Being a single mother is not a disgrace.
Lut’s (Lot) wife didn’t listen to his instructions
- Even great partners can be betrayed by their spouses
Asiyah was killed by her husband, Pharoah
- Your abusive partner is not your fault
Ayyub A.S battled sickness and repeated trials
- Chronic illness is nothing to be ashamed of
Nuh’s A.S own son rejected him
- Effective parenting doesn’t guarantee successful children
Musa A.S had to flee his homeland in pursuit of safety
- You can be a refugee or migrant and build a new home
Ibrahim’s A.S father threatened to kill him
- You can overcome a bad childhood and oppressive parents
Zakariya A.S struggled to have a child
- Infertility isn’t a sign that God is displeased with you
Yusuf A.S was put in prison for something he didn’t do
- Sometimes innocent people are unjustly imprisoned
The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) was an orphan, a widower, and had to grieve the loss of his own children
- The best of mankind experienced these trials too
In your broken heartedness, remember that you are not alone
"Even if you have no one, you are in the care of ALLAH"
Nothing hurts more than getting to the age where you want to support your family, yet you’re still struggling financially.😭😭😭😭
Ya razzaq , open for us the doors of rizq today and turn our stories around for good. 🤲
What I can & can’t control?
Can:
My Nafs, Thoughts, words, action, behaviour, morals, values, beliefs, reactions, modesty, responsibilities, Salah, expectations, manners, maturity, expectations and mindset.
Can’t:
Allah’s timing, Qadr outcomes, the past, changing people, the future, people’s perceptions of me, Dua response time
So just leave it to Allah and be better on what you can control.

You wake up to your old Nokia alarm tone.
Your roommate yelling.
The fan spinning slowly above you.
You grab your phone.
2008.
Everything you’ve lived since then… never happened.
What do you do first?
This is probably the best answer I've ever heard to the question, "Why did God create evil?"
A professor at the university asked his students the following question:
“Everything that exists was created by God?”
One student bravely answered:
“Yes, it was created by God.”
The professor asked :
“If God created everything, then God created evil, since it exists. And according to the principle that our deeds define ourselves, then God is evil.”
The student became silent after hearing such an answer. The professor was very pleased with himself. He boasted to students for proving once again that faith in God is a myth.
Another student raised his hand and said:
“Can I ask you a question, professor?”
"Of course," replied the professor.
“Professor, is cold a thing?”
“What kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you ever been cold?”
Students laughed at the young man's question.
The young man answered:
“Actually, sir, cold doesn't exist. According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is actually the absence of heat. A person or object can be studied on whether it has or transmits energy.
Absolute zero (-460 degrees Fahrenheit) is a complete absence of heat. All matter becomes inert and unable to react at this temperature. Cold does not exist. We created this word to describe what we feel in the absence of heat.”
The student continued:
“Professor, does darkness exist?”
“Of course it exists.” said the professor.
“You're wrong again, sir. Darkness also does not exist. Darkness is actually the absence of light. We can study the light but not the darkness. We can use Newton's prism to spread white light across multiple colors and explore the different wavelengths of each color. You can't measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break into the world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you tell how dark a certain space is? You measure how much light is presented. Isn't it so? Darkness is a term man uses to describe what happens in the absence of light.”
In the end, the young man asked the professor:
“Sir, does evil exist?”
This time it was uncertain, the professor answered:
“Of course, as I said before. We see him every day. Cruelty, numerous crimes and violence throughout the world. These examples are nothing but a manifestation of evil.”
To this, the student answered:
“Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it does not exist for itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is like darkness and cold—a man-made word to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is not faith or love, which exist as light and warmth. Evil is the result of the absence of Divine love in the human heart. It’s the kind of cold that comes when there is no heat, or the kind of darkness that comes when there’s no light.”
