When the heart is busy with this worldly life, a person will look for worldly means to find relief from the calamities and difficulties of life.
And when the heart is connected, and its concerned, and its busy with Allahﷻ, the first thing that comes to a persons mind during difficulties, is Allahﷻ.
The way you live your life is going to dictate how you respond to a difficult moment.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
احْفَظْ اللَّهَ تَجِدْهُ أمامك، تَعَرَّفْ إلَى اللَّهِ فِي الرَّخَاءِ يَعْرِفُك فِي الشِّدَّةِ
“Be mindful of Allah, and you will find Him in front of you, acknowledge Allah in times of ease, and He will remember you in times of difficulty.”

Respect your neighbours!
A man said: “O Messenger of Allaah! There is a woman who prays, gives charity and fasts a great deal, but she harms her neighbors with her speech (by insulting them).”
He replied: “She will go to Hell.”
The man continued: “O Messenger of Allaah! There is (another) woman who is well-known for how little she fasts and prays, but she gives charity from the dried yogurt she makes and she does not harm her neighbors.”
He replied: “She will go to Paradise.”
● {Musnad Ahmad (v. 4, p. 166)}
● {Saheeh Ibn Hibban (2054)}
The Prophet said: Four things contribute to misery:
1. A bad neighbor.
2. A bad wife.
3. A cramped home.
4. A bad means of transport.

📘 Overlooking: A Trait of the Successful
Shaykh Ṣāliḥ ibn ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz Āl al-Shaykh — may Allah preserve him — said:
al-Imām Muḥammad ibn ʿAlī ibn al-Ḥusayn — may Allah have mercy on them all — once said:
“Living with others, dealing justly, and maintaining good relations — all of it fits into one measure: one-third is discernment, and two-thirds is deliberate and gracious overlooking.”
Living with people is unavoidable. Man, as it is often said, is a social creature by nature.
He must interact — with his parents, his household, his siblings, his children,
his coworkers and peers.
To treat people with noble character, you must have two traits:
🔹 Discernment — making up one-third,
🔹 Overlooking — making up two-thirds.
Overlooking (taghāful) means:
Not scrutinizing every detail,
not pursuing every error,
not dissecting every word or action.
Someone might say something you know isn’t quite honest—
Will you chase him down for it? Argue until you expose him?
He may have spoken from whim, and you have no firm proof of his mistake.
Yes, you need discernment—to see through matters and avoid deception,
but you also need overlooking—to not always confront, to avoid unnecessary conflict.
Dealing well with people requires a heart that is:
Discerning, yet Gracious.
Sharp—but not harsh.
Perceptive—but not petty.
Fāṭin mutaghāfil.

The Prophet ﷺ said:
المؤمن القوي خير وأحب إلى الله من المؤمن الضعيف، وفي كل خير
“The strong believer is better and more beloved to Allah than the weak believer, and in both there is good.”
The “strong believer” here is the one strong in faith and strong in pursuing the Hereafter, not just physical strength.
But it’s equally important to note, that the weak believer is NOT empty of good. The Prophet ﷺ didn’t cancel him. He didn’t say he has no value or he has no hope. He said: وفي كلٍّ خير “in EVERY believer (strong or weak) there is goodness.”
Why? Because even the weakest believer carries the greatest treasure, faith in Allah.
He may be struggling and battling his desires daily, but as long as he holds onto Eeman, he holds onto a goodness that the world cannot measure.
The message of this hadith is that the weak believer also has goodness in him and is beloved to Allah.
This hadith is NOT an invitation to judge someone else’s heart. It is an invitation to look inward and ask yourself: “If there is goodness in me now as I’m weak, how much more goodness can I unlock if I strengthen my faith, and pursue the Hereafter?”
This is a call to strengthen your Eeman, because Allah loves seeing His servant grow stronger for His sake.

Avoid adding stress to someone who’s already distressed
Shaykh Abū ʿAmmār Yāsir Ad-Duba’i ḥafidhahullāh said:
A person in a state of distress cannot bear additional harm on top of what he is already suffering.
Yet some people do not behave properly when their brothers are in distress. For example, someone might visit his sick brother and say, “Subḥān Allāh, so-and-so had the same illness you have, and he died after a week.” You did not relieve his distress you added distress on top of distress.
So behave well and speak well.
Some people’s joking is inappropriate.
Your brother is distressed, and this is one of the mistakes you find: he says, “No, my brother, stop this pampering what we call dalla [spoiling]. There’s nothing wrong with you,” thinking that this will reassure him. But his brother is distressed and needs a comforting word.
There is a difference between seriousness and joking.
Some people might utter a word while the other is distressed, and they do not care.

Jannah is Our Dream

#Ever wondered why Prophet Muhammad ﷺ encouraged us to recite Surah Al-Kahf every Friday?
This beautiful Surah contains four main stories, and each one teaches us deep lessons about the tests we face in life.
#Let’s look at them one by one
1. The People of the Cave
This story is about a group of young believers who lived in a city full of disbelievers. They refused to give up their faith, even when their own people wanted to harm them. So they fled and took shelter in a cave ..and Allah protected them with His mercy. They woke up many years later to find that the people of the town had become believers.
#Lesson: When you face trials for holding onto your faith, turn to Allah, be patient, and trust completely in Him (Tawakkul). Allah never abandons those who stay true to Him.
2. The Owner of the Two Gardens
#This is the story of a man who was blessed by Allah with two beautiful gardens. Instead of thanking Allah, he became proud and thought his success was from himself. He even doubted the Day of Judgement. Allah took away all that he had as a reminder.
#Lesson: When Allah blesses you with wealth or comfort, remember that it’s from Him alone. Be humble, show gratitude, and never become arrogant .. because everything can be taken away in a moment.
3. Prophet Musa (AS) and Khidr (AS)
#When Prophet Musa (AS) was asked who was the most knowledgeable person, he said it was him. Allah reminded him that there was someone who knew more .. Khidr (AS). Musa (AS) traveled to learn from him and discovered that Allah’s wisdom is sometimes hidden in things that seem bad to us.
#Lesson: All knowledge belongs to Allah. Never think you know everything. Keep learning, stay patient, and always use your knowledge to benefit others for the sake of Allah.
4. Dhul-Qarnayn
#Dhul-Qarnayn was a powerful and just ruler who used his strength to help people and stop evil. He built a great barrier to protect people from the corruption of Yajooj and Majooj. Despite his power, he stayed humble and used his authority to please Allah.
#Lesson: If Allah gives you power, influence, or leadership, use it to spread goodness, protect others, and serve humanity in a way that pleases Allah.

Prayer Attracts Provision

Depression isn’t always tears and darkness.
It's staring at your phone, knowing you should reply, but feeling frozen.
It's eating cereal for dinner because cooking feels impossible.
It's sitting in your car because you don’t have the energy to go inside.
It's wanting connection, but feeling too drained to engage.
For some it’s exhaustion. For others it's not showering, not eating, shutting down, isolating.
For many it’s the silent battles no one sees the freezing, the overwhelm, the constant push just to exist.
Depression is:
Not having the energy to shower.
Forgetting what day it is.
Feeling disconnected from your own life.
Sitting in silence because you don’t know what to say anymore.
Trying so hard just to exist.
It’s not laziness.
It’s survival.
And you don’t have to survive alone.
Depression isn't one ‘look.’ It's a hundred tiny ways your body and mind are trying to cope.
If you're struggling in any of these ways, you’re not lazy, dramatic, or broken.
You're surviving something heavy and I see you.
And I stand with all of you.

Imām Ibn Al-Qayyim (may Allāh have mercy on him) said:
"Most of the ailments of the body and the heart arise from the absence of patience. Nothing preserves the soundness of hearts, bodies, and souls like patience, for it is the greatest distinction and the most excellent remedy. And if it contained no virtue other than the companionship of Allāh with those who possess it, that would suffice—for indeed, Allāh is with the patient(1)."
