Bad things are bound to happen in everyone's life. How we respond to them allows them to either define us, break us, or build us. #Muslims #Islam #Life

Why can’t we be happy for others when they achieve something? As in truly happy; no snide remarks or sarcastic comments. It all stems from the heart. The positive energy you exude towards others will come back to you. So the next time, you hear such news, celebrate, don’t hate!

Love, trust and mutual respect are the bedrock of a solid marriage. It doesn’t come easy. It’s hard work & has to be nurtured daily. Don’t let mistrust creep into the equation. Don’t give your spouse reason to mistrust you. Once trust is broken, it will not be the same again.

There’s purpose in your pain. Never doubt that. Think of all the lessons the Almighty has put forth from your pain. No matter how badly it hurts now, one day you’ll look back and realize that it changed your life for the better. So endure and you’ll emerge the better for it!

On your darkest days, remind yourself how far you’ve come already. You have a lot to be thankful for and every reason to not stop but keep moving forward. Keep telling yourself you can do this because the Lord of the Worlds can make things happen anytime! Your turn will come.

Almighty. On this blessed day, may You shine Your light on us during our darkest hours and relieve our fears & anxieties. Guide us in our journey to healing & recovery. Grant us patience and wisdom that we so badly need. Remind us constantly that we never have to walk alone!

Taking your own life is NOT an option! When you feel like you can’t do it anymore, remember, to prolong your prayer and confide in Him. Make the Almighty your Friend; such that even if you lose the connections of this world, it doesn’t matter. Your connection with Him is intact.

Confide in the Almighty always. When you shed tears in front of others, you have to explain yourself. When you cry your heart out to Him, you don’t need to say a word. He knows what’s in your heart even before your lips utter them. No one can love you or understand you better!

This world is such that there’ll be people who love you and those who will hate you. Remember, you’re not for everyone and that’s ok. You’re not in this world to win a popularity poll. So don’t waste your time with such people. Share your journey with those who value you.

Life isn’t easy. It hurts. It’s difficult. It’s tough to imagine the uncertainties. But you know what? The Almighty is planning so much behind the scenes. He will unfold them when the time is right. May be tomorrow, perhaps another day. Be patient. You’ll emerge stronger.

Ups and downs are part of our daily occurrence. Instead of letting it sour your day, thank the Almighty. Don’t fret. He’s using every test and every trial to refine you. And He will keep doing it till you pass the test and are ready to move on. So take it in your stride.

Some people can’t bear to see you having a good life & being blessed. They will want to spoil things for you. Beware such people. They won’t hesitate to stab you in your back as well. Learn to be unconditionally happy for those the Almighty has blessed. Your turn will come.

The hardest part of life’s journey is going through the unfamiliar or unknown because we don't know what to expect. But when you walk in firm faith, you no longer worry about what will happen down the road. Your heart trusts the Almighty. You know He has it all figured out!

Don’t hate or begrudge someone who ignores you. If it makes them happy, so be it. Don’t let the behaviour of someone else affect you. You can’t change people. But you can go where you are appreciated. Remember, life has a way of dishing out to others what they dish out to you!

Stay committed to your dreams. Don’t give up on the promises God put in your heart. It may be taking longer than you thought, but God is still on the throne. He’s a faithful God. He’s already set the time to bring it to pass.

Always choose love, kindness and forgiveness. Always choose to walk the high ground. Never mind what others say, never mind what rumours they choose to spread about you; never lose your cool and composure. Never tire of doing good. The Almighty loves such consistent acts.

Quit overthinking & being anxious always. Trust the Almighty to be your Guide. There’s nothing like finding peace & rest from all your troubles in Him. Your problems may still be present, but when you learn to trust Him, peace will reign in your heart. Seek comfort in Him alone.

You are who you are when no one is looking. That’s the real you. The “you” that the Almighty knows, which others may not. Remember, it’s easy to be nice & feel good when things are smooth & ideal. The real “you” shows up when things are crumbling & nothing is going you way!
