The trials of a Believer and the Trials of a Sinner
Salmân Al-Fârsî – Allâh be pleased with him – once visited a sick friend. When he entered upon him he said:
Have glad tidings, for verily Allâh makes the illness of a believer an expiation [for his sins] and a cause of being pleased, whereas the illness of a sinner is like a camel that has been tied by its owners, then released by them: it knows not why it was tied up nor why it was released.

*If a Person is Exposed, It’s not his First Sin*
Anas b. Mālik reports:
A young man who had stolen was brought to ʿUmar (for punishment). He said, “By Allāh I have never stolen before this time.” So ʿUmar responded, “You lie, Allāh would not (or does not) surrender a servant of His on the first sin.”

Sufyān ath-Thawri رحمه الله said:
"There is no weapon for the Shaytān against mankind similar to the fear of poverty. When the fear of poverty falls into the heart of a person, he prevents the truth (from being manifested), he speaks with desires and he has evil thoughts about his Lord."

Always Ask Allāh For Thabāt (Firmness) Upon Islām
عن أنس رضي الله عنه قال كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يكثر أن يقول : يا مقلب القلوب ثبت قلبي على دينك ، فقلت : يا رسول الله آمنا بك وبما جئت به فهل تخاف علينا ؟ قال : نعم إن القلوب بين أصبعين من أصابع الله يقلبها كيف يشاء
Narrated from Anas Raḍi-Allāhu ‘Anhu that the Messenger of Allāh Ṣallallāhu-‘Alaihi Wa Sallam used to say abundantly:
“Yaa Muqallib al-Quloob Thabbit Qalbee ‘Alaa Deenik.”
(O Turner of the hearts, keep my heart firm upon Your Religion).
So I asked him: “O Messenger of Allāh, we have believed in you and everything which you have been sent with, so are you afraid for us?”, he (Ṣallallāhu-'Alaihi Wa Sallam) replied: “YES, indeed the hearts are between two Fingers from the Fingers of Allāh, He turns them however He Wills.”

📚 Miftaah Daar al-Saaadah (1/122)Modesty, Self-Sufficiency & Patience – Dr. Saleh as-Saleh
Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that:
Certain people of the Ansar asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he gave them; then they again asked him and he gave them until all what he possessed was exhausted. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said,
“Whatever wealth I have, I will not withhold from you.
Whosoever would be chaste and modest; Allah will keep him chaste and modest and
whosoever would seek self-sufficiency, Allah will make him self-sufficient; and
whosoever would be patient, Allah will give him patience, and no one is granted a gift better and more comprehensive than patience”.
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
وعن أبي سعيد سعد بن مالك بن سنان الخدري رضي الله عنهما: ”أن ناساً من الأنصار سألوا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فأعطاهم، ثم سألوه فأعطاهم ، حتى نفد ما عنده، فقال لهم حين أنفق كل شيء بيده : ”ما يكن عندي من خير فلن أدخره عنكم ، ومن يستعفف يعفه الله، ومن يستغن يغنه الله، ومن يتصبر يصبره الله. وما أعطي أحد عطاءً خيراً وأوسع من الصبر” ((متفق عليه)) .

Jazaak Allahu What? -Explained By Moosa Richardson (Hafidhahullah)
There is a Jazaa' for the people who deserve punishment, their punishment is called a Jazaa'. And then there is a reward for the people who do good and this is a Jazaa'
And this is to let you know (and this is an added benefit) that it's NOT sufficient if you want to make du'a for someone in their favour to say "Jazaak Allah" it's an empty du'a. Allah is going to give a Jazaa' to everyone, so to make du'a that you get a Jazaa' is meaningless.
"Jazaak Allahu Khairan, Jazaak Allahu Ihsānan, Jazaak Allahu something-Firdawsan" and typically we hear "Jazaak Allah".
As the Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam said: "Whoever has had something done good to him, and he says to the one who did it to him "Jazaak Allahu Khairan", he has done excessively well in thanking him (for that good thing)

HE SHOULD NOT FEEL SAFE FOR HIMSELF!
"The hearts of the slaves are in between two Fingers among the Fingers of the Most Merciful."
{Reported by Muslim in his Sahih (4/2045 no 2654) from 'Abdullaah bin 'Amr (Radi Allaahu anhu).}
Shaikh Fawzaan: He should not feel safe for himself. Prophet Ibraahim said:
"...And keep me and my sons away from worshipping idols. "O my Lord! They have indeed led astray many among mankind..."
[Qur'aan 14: 35-36].
A person should not feel safe from trials and an evil end for himself even if he is the most righteous of people. On the other hand, he should not despair of Allaah's mercy even if he is the worst of people. Allaah may favour him with repentance such that he dies upon Islaam and enters Paradise because as long as he is living, he is exposed to this or that; and actions are considered according to the last ones.

🔍 *Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan on the Study of the 'Scientific Miracle'*
Numerous people have been leading the 'Scientific Miracle' bandwagon and directing average Muslims into using this as a basis for inviting others to Islam. *This is NOT the way of Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jamaa'ah, the followers of the Salafi methodology in da'wah.*
The reason is quite obvious and plain.
🕳Scientific knowledge is always in a state of flux and attempting to correlate verses of the Qur'an with modern science is in reality
⏩ *speaking about the intent of Allaah without knowledge, and amounts to lying upon Allaah, the Exalted.*
🕳Whilst the Qur'an alludes to certain natural phenomenon, the primary purpose behind such texts is
⏩ *to make a man reflect on the universe and upon his own self and upon his own creation* (how he came to be) so as to come to a concrete realization:
☝🏼That none has the right to be worshipped in truth except Allaah alone and that
☝🏼there is no true serenity and satisfaction for the hearts _except in this._
📮 *Shaykh Salih al-Fawzan on the 'Scientific Miracle'*
The Shaykh delivered a lecture ennoscriptd ( وقفة مع قوله تعالى: هو الذي أنزل عليك الكتاب ) and was asked the following question therein:
❓هل علم الإعجاز العلمي في القرآن ، علم محدث أم لا ؟
❓Is the science (study) of the scientific miracle of the Qur'an an innovated science or not?
The Shaykh answered:
🅰 محدث ، الإعجاز العلمي هذا محدث ، قصدهم العلمي ما هو بالعلم الشرعي ،قصدهم الصناعي و الأفكار التي إعتمدوها من المخترعات وهذا علم دنيوي ولا يفسر به القرآن وهذا يخطئ ويصيب أيضاً ، فكيف يفسر القرآن بشيء عرضه للخطأ، عرضة للخطأ وعرضة عدم للصحة، لأنها أقوال الناس . نعم .
🅰It is newly-invented (muhdath), this 'scientific miracle' is newly-invented.
Their intent behind 'scientific (knowledge, study)' is NOT the legislative (Shar'iah) knowledge, *their intent is applied science or the ideas they depend upon from the newly-invented things.*
And this is WORLDLY knowledge, the Qur'an is not to be interpreted by way of it, because it can be right _and wrong too._❕
🔊So how can the Qur'an be interpreted with something that is subject to error, subject to error and subject to absence of (being) sound, because they are from the sayings of men. Yes.

It is reported that ‘Abdullâh b. Mas’ûd – Allâh be pleased with him – said:
The example of the believer, the unbeliever and the hypocrite is that of three people who arrived at a valley. One of them descended and passed through to the other side. One of them descended until he reached half way, when the third man on the edge of the valley called to him, “Woe to you, where are you going? You will die. Come back.” The man who made it to the other side called to him, “Come and be saved.” So [the man in the middle of the valley] kept looking back and forth at the two [on each side of the valley], when a flood came into the valley and drowned him. The man who passed through to the other side is the believer; the one who drowned is the munâfiq (hypocrite) –
[The Hypocrites] sway between this and that, neither [fully] with the believers nor with the unbelievers.
[The Hypocrites] sway between this and that, neither [fully] with the believers nor with the unbelievers. [Quran 4:143]
