When you complain, 'Why me?', remember the hardships of Ayyub peace be upon him, who endured 18 years of illness.
Prophet peace be upon him said:
إن نبي الله أيوب صلى الله عليه وسلم لبث به بلاؤه ثمان عشرة سنة فرفضه القريب والبعيد إلا رجلين من إخوانه كانا يغدوان إليه ويروحان..
"Verily, the Prophet of Allah, Ayyub peace be upon him, suffered from his illness for eighteen years, and he was rejected by his close and distant relatives, except for two men from his brothers who would visit him morning and evening. ( then the hadith states, even one of the brothers who used to visit him thought negatively that Ayyub aleh salam did a great sin due to that he is in affliction but in reality it was not like that)"
(Narrated by Abu Ya'la in his "Musnad" (176/1-177/1) and by Abu Nu'aym in his "Hilyah" (3/374-375)" Authenticated by Shaykh al Albani in al Saheeha no. 17)
P.s According to the latter part of the hadith, after 18 years, Ayyub peace be upon him, recovered and became strong and handsome, to the extent that even his own wife struggled to recognize him due to his transformed appearance.

The Five Levels Of Prayer,
By Ibnul-Qayyim
Ibnul-Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah Rahimahullaah said:
And mankind, with regard to their performance of prayer are in five levels:
The First: The level of the one who is negligent and wrongs his soul: He is the one who falls short in performing wudhoo (ablution) properly, performing the prayer upon its time and within its specified limits, and in fulfilling its essential pillars.
The Second: The one who guards his prayers upon their proper times and within their specified limits, fulfils their essential pillars and performs his wudhoo with care. However, his striving (in achieving the above) is wasted due whisperings in his prayer so he is taken away by thoughts and ideas.
The Third: The one who guards his prayers within the specified limits, fulfils their essential pillars and strives with himself to repel the whisperings, thoughts and ideas. He is busy struggling against his enemy (Shaytaanor Satan) so that he does not steal from the prayer. On account of this he is engaged in (both) prayer and jihaad.
The Fourth: The one who stands for the prayer, completes and perfects its due rights, its essential pillars, performs it within its specified limits and his heart becomes engrossed in safeguarding its rights and specified limits, so that nothing is wasted from it. His whole concern is directed towards its establishment, its completion and its perfection, as it should be. His heart is immersed in the prayer and in enslavement to his Lord the Exalted.
The Fifth: The one who stands for the prayer like the one mentioned above. However, on top of this, he has taken and placed his heart in front of his Lord Azzawajall, looking towards Him with his heart with anticipation, (his heart) filled with His love and His might, as if he sees and witnesses Allaah. The whisperings, thoughts and ideas have vanished and the coverings which are between him and his Lord are raised. What is between this person and others with respect to the prayer, is superior and greater than what is between the heavens and the earth. This person is busy with his Lord Azzawajall, delighted with Him.
The First type will be punished, the second type will be held to account, the third will have his sins and shortcomings expiated, the fourth will be rewarded and the fifth will be close to his Lord, because he will receive the portion of the one who makes his prayer the delight and pleasure of his eye.
Whoever makes his prayer, the delight and pleasure of his eye, will have the nearness to his Lord Azzawajall made the delight and pleasure of his eye in the hereafter. He will also be made a pleasure to the eye in this world since whoever makes Allaah the pleasure of his eye in this world, every other eye will become delighted and pleased with him.

The Jew & Christian who hears of the final Prophet of Allah (sallallaahu alayhiwa sallam).
The great companion Abu Hurairah (radiAllahuanhu) reported that the Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu alayhiwa sallam) said
"By The One in Whose Hand Muhammad's soul is there is nobody of this ummah (nation) be they Jews or Christians who hears of me and then dies without believing in what I was sent with except that he will be among the people of the Hellfire [Sahih Muslim].
Every human being since the advent of the final Messenger Muhammad Ibn Abdulllah (sallallaahu alayhiwa sallam) who had heard of him and failed to accept him is threatened with the Hellfire. This is a very serious matter.
As Muslims it is our duty and responsibility to convey this message to them in the best way possible. If you fail to do so they could possibly hold you responsible in front of Allah. If you have a neighbor, co-worker who is not Muslim it is incumbent you convey this message. Remember you duty is to convey and not convince.

Prayer Attracts Provision
Ibn Al-Qayyim Al-Jawzeeyah [رحمه الله] said:
“Prayer attracts provisions, preserves health, it defends against harm, repels diseases.
It strengthens the heart and illuminates the face. It gives delight to the soul and removes laziness.”
[Zaad Al-Maad, (4/304)]

Some journeys in life are meant to be walked alone
No distractions, no expectations from people, just pure trust in Allāh تعالیٰ
There will be moments when no one understands your struggles, when no one stands by your side, and when the path feels uncertain. But these are the moments Allāh brings you closer to Him. He removes the noise of the world so you can hear the whispers of your heart calling out to Him.
It may feel lonely at times, but this solitude is not emptiness—it’s space for growth, reflection, and a deeper connection with Allāh. Every step taken with sincerity brings you closer to Him, and every hardship endured with patience strengthens your faith.
So, don’t fear walking alone. If Allāh is with you, you have everything you need. 🫀

The ruling giving a beggar
The Sunnah is that a poor beggar should be given what suffices and leaves him with noneed to ask another person. It is Sunnah to give the poor person even if what is given is small.
Narrated Umm Bujayd:
She took the oath of allegiance to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said to him: Messenger of Allah, a poor man stands at my door, but I find nothing to give him.
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to her:
If you do not find anything to give him, put something in his hand, even though it should be a burnt hoof. '' [Abu Dawood 1667, sahih]

Your life will get significantly better once you realize everything does happen for a reason, it's all about changing your perspective. Every single situation you've been through, every little detail happened for a reason. The hardship you're going through right now is preparing you for something far greater so have sabr and trust the process.

Beautiful advice:
In Madarij as-Salikin, he said, “Shaykh al-Islam ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said to me one time, ‘ When one understands that trials and misfortunes are inevitable, he will not get angry when they occur, nor will he grieve or feel sadness due to them’.
[1] So when one is patient with those trials and does not let them break him, it is hoped that he will rise to the level of attainment ( of true servitude to Allah). His soul will become disciplined and will be content with Allah, and it will be weaned off its bad habits, until love of Allah will drench his heart and his soul and his limbs will all become obedient to the commands ( of Allah ). At that point, his heart will see sense that Allah is with him and is supporting him. His every motion and every pause will be through Allah, not by himself. His heart will receive many divine insights, such that he will appreciate Allah’s Divinity, His control of all things, and his Uniqueness. It is upon understanding of theses three qualities that all knowledge and fundamentals are based”

Narrated Jaabir bin Samurah: The People of Koofaa complained against Sa
d to Umar and the Umar dismissed him and appointed Ammaar as their chief. They lodged many complaints against Sad and even they alleged that he did not pray properly. Umar sent for him and said: “O Abaa Is-haaq! These people claim that you do not pray properly.” Sad said: "By Allaah, I used to pray with them a prayer similar to that of Allaah's Messenger ﷺ and I never reduced anything of it. I used to prolong the first two Rakaat of Ishaa prayer and shorten the last two Rakaat.” Umar said: “O Abaa Is-haaq, this was what I thought about you.” And then he sent one or more persons with him to Koofaa so as to ask the people about him. So they went there and did not leave any Masjid without asking about him. All the people praised him till they came to the Masjid of the tribe of Banee Abs; one of the men called Usama bin Qataadah with a surname of Aba Sada stood up and said: “As you have put us under an oath; I am bound to tell you that Sad never went himself with the army and never distributed (the war booty) equally and never did justice in legal verdicts.” (On hearing it) Sad said: "I pray to Allaah for three things: O Allaah! If this slave of yours is a liar and got up for showing off, give him a long life, increase his poverty and put him to trials.” (And so it happened). Later on when that person was asked how he was, he used to reply that he was an old man in trial as the result of Sad's curse. Abdul Malik, the sub narrator, said that he had seen him afterwards and his eyebrows were overhanging his eyes owing to old age and he used to tease and hit the small girls in the way.

Saeed said: “How can I take a portion out of her land while I have heard a denunciation from the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ.” Marwaan asked him: “What did you hear from the Messenger of Allaah?” He said: “I heard the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ saying: ❝He who takes a span of land unjustly will be made to wear seven earths round his neck on the Day of Resurrection.❞” Marwaan said to him: “I don't seek any more proof from you after this.” Saeed supplicated: “O Allaah! If she is a liar, deprive her of her eye sight and cause her to die in her land.” Urwah said: “She did not die till she became blind. While she was walking in her land (concerning which the dispute arose) she fell down into a pit and died.”📚[Saheeh Muslim (1610). In another narration of Saheeh Muslim, Muhammad Ibn Zaid Ibn
