People will never understand your pain until they experience it themselves. Until then it's easy for people to think you're emotional and dismiss you or even see you as a strange person. It's better to keep it to yourself, and pour out your heart to Allah azza wa jal than to ever seek comfort with people.

We all fall. We're human. But we rise. We get back up.

Circumstances and emotions seem overwhelming and insurmountable at times. Things can get *really* hard. It can seem like the lights go out and we're enveloped in darkness and we've no choice but to shrink back and succumb. To let ourselves fall. Because we feel unbearably alone.

But that's part of the story, that's part of the plan. In fact, it's the only way to really learn and get strong. We learn how to get back up on our own, and eventually rise to our feet and stay there through repeatedly pulling back up after falling down.

So if you're in that place right now after a fall, take it one day at a time. Breathe. Grab onto the surest, steadiest surface near or above you and hold on. Keep trying. Look up. You WILL rise.

Giving advice so frequently that people become bored is not wise.
Narrated Abu Wail:

Abdullah used to give a religious talk to the people on every Thursday. Once a man said, "O Aba Abdur-Rahman! (By Allah) I wish if you could preach us daily." He replied, "The only thing which prevents me from doing so, is that I hate to bore you, and no doubt I take care of you in preaching by selecting a suitable time just as the Prophet (ﷺ) used to do with us, for fear of making us bored." [Sahih al-Bukhari 70]

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله:

“Everything around you is a witness for you, when you engage in the remembrance of Allāh,

The land, the mountains and the ground will testify for you on the Day of Judgement…

Increase those witnesses for yourself for that day.”

❝When the people of Jannah will reunite, they will remember all the times they spoke about Jannah in this world. They’ll look back and laugh, at how short life was, and then smile, because beautiful is their final abode. The people of paradise will have all that they desire. One step into Jannah and they will remember no pain. They will say they never suffered, they will say they never cried. A dip in Jannah.
Oh how much we long for that moment. The moment where we reunite, we hug our loved ones once again, and thank Allāh for all the tests! How strange does it seem, that these tests which weigh a ton on our chest today will one day elevate us. Elevate us so high, that we will thank Allāh. We will thank Him for testing us, for loving us and for giving us more than anyone could imagine. A place of eternity, vast, beautiful, peaceful. Everything one can desire.
Be patient, oh beautiful slaves of Allāh, for our Lord is more Merciful than a mother is to her child.❞

Hardness of the heart

A man said to al-Hasan al-Basri:

“O Abu Sa’eed, I am complaining to you of the hardness of my heart.“

He said: “Soften it with dhikr. The more forgetful the heart is, the harder it becomes, but if a person remembers Allah , the hardness softens as copper melts in the fire. Nothing can soften the hardness of the heart like the remembrance of Allah , may He be glorified and exalted. Dhikr is healing and medicine for the heart. Forgetfulness is a disease, the cure for which is remembrance of Allah .”

[Al-Wabil as-Sayyib, Ibn al-Jawzi, 142]

Qatādah رحمه الله stated:

"Whoever is given wealth, beauty, clothing and knowledge, then afterwards the person is not humble, it will be an evil consequence upon him on the Day of Judgment."

السَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ

As we find ourselves on this blessed day of Friday, remember to offer plenty of dua and send abundant salawat. This day holds a special significance in Islam and is a time when our dua are readily accepted.

Narrated from Jābir ibn ‘Abd-Allāh that the Prophet ﷺ said: “Friday is twelve hours in which there is no Muslim who asks Allaah for something but He will give it to him, so seek the last hour after ‘Asr.” [Abu Dāwūd (1048) & al-Nasā’i (1389), classed saheeh by al-Albāni]

May Allah ﷻ grant you all tawfiq, make each of you steadfast in righteousness, and bestow upon you the greatest blessings of both worlds. Remember, your dua is a powerful connection to Allah. Use this blessed day to draw closer to Him.

That concept is Tawakkul (putting trust in Allah).

Tawakkul is more than just a belief or a concept; it is a way of life. It is the act of putting your trust in Allah and relying on Him to take care of all your affairs. It is a powerful tool that can help you navigate through the challenges of life with ease and grace.

As humans, we are wired to worry and stress about the challenges of this world. We worry about losing our jobs, our health, our loved ones, and our possessions. We worry about the future and the unknown. But, with Tawakkul, we can learn to let go of our worries and anxieties and trust in Allah's plan for us.

Tawakkul is not about sitting back and doing nothing. It is about taking action and then trusting Allah with the results. It is about doing your best and leaving the rest to Allah. It is about accepting the outcomes, whether they are favorable or not, and knowing that Allah's plan is always the best plan.

Allah (may He be Exalted) tells us in the Quran: "And (He) will provide for him from where he does not expect. And whoever places his trust in Allah, Sufficient is He for him, for Allah will surely accomplish His Purpose: For verily, Allah has appointed for all things a due proportion." Quran (Surah Talaq, 65:3).

By practicing Tawakkul, you can experience a sense of peace and tranquility that is hard to find in this world. You can learn to let go of your worries and anxieties and trust in Allah's plan for you. You can find comfort in the fact that Allah is in control of everything and that He will take care of you no matter what.

The Quran further makes it clear that Tawakkul is not an option but rather a requirement. Allah (may He be Exalted) says: “…and put your trust in Allâh if you are believers indeed. Quran (Surah Al-Ma’idah, 5: 23)"

So, I urge you to embrace Tawakkul in your life. Trust in Allah and know that He is always with you. Take action and then leave the results to Him. Accept the outcomes, whether they are good or bad, and know that they are part of Allah's plan for you. I pray that Allah grants you the strength and courage to embrace Tawakkul in your life and that it brings you peace and tranquility.

Do not fear except from Allaah!

Do not hope except from Allaah!

Do not trust except upon Allaah!

Do not rely except upon Allaah!

And entrust your affairs to Allaah, before the events and after they happen!

All your affairs, be content that they are in the Hands of Allaah!

Not just mere words, but live your life with this belief.

Do not fear anyone, no matter what his position, status, or designation. Do not fear anyone but Allaah!

Because you know, by necessity, the worse that a person can do to you is: implement what Allaah has already prescribed against you. He cannot harm you more than what Allaah has decreed.

Then why do you want to fear them?!

Fear Allaah, the Creator, and not the creation.

And whatever Allaah has Decreed, know, that it is only for your welfare and goodness, even if it appears to be evil and bad. Allaah knows and you know not.

The Prophet ﷺ said to Ibn `Abbaas رضي الله عنهما:
❝O young man! I shall teach you some words [of advice]: Be mindful of Allaah and Allaah will protect you. Be mindful of Allaah and you will find Him in front of you. If you ask, then ask Allaah [alone]; and if you seek help, then seek help from Allaah [alone]. And know that if the nation were to gather together to benefit you with anything, they would not benefit you except with what Allaah had already prescribed for you. And if they were to gather together to harm you with anything, they would not harm you except with what Allaah had already prescribed against you. The pens have been lifted and the pages have dried.❞
📚 [Sunan al-Tirmidhee (2516) and graded as “Saheeh” by Shaikh al-Albaanee]

And the Prophet ﷺ said:
❝How wonderful is the case of a Believer; for all his affairs are good for him, and this applies only to a Believer. If something good happens to him, he is thankful for it and that is good for him; if something bad happens to him, he bears it with patience and that is good for him.❞

One of the Salaf said:

"There is no bliss except that sadness follows it. And there is no laughter in the Dunya except that tears are behind it." He who knows the Dunya as it should be known should have disdain for it and hate it. As is said:

𝑰𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑫𝒖𝒏𝒚𝒂 𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒃𝒆 𝒔𝒐𝒍𝒅 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒚,

If Allāh has made something very obvious to you and you have clearly seen the signs, trust His process. Stop forcing things. Stop creating a little frustrating, disturbing, peace snatching process of your own. Stop being impatient, pushy and forceful. Don’t disturb your heart.

Stop relying so much on your own understanding. Trust Allāh’s process. Trust Allāh’s timing. Do the work required of you, gracefully. On your journey in this difficult phase, seek assistance through patience and prayer.

Allāh does not want you to be stressed. Allāh wants you to peacefully do the internal work for the external bounty you seek to arrive.

Patiently let the reality unfold which is planned in the Lord’s process. Stop disturbing your heart and wanting everything now. Be patient. Allāh has an incredible plan for your life. Do the work of now, peacefully. And know that when Allāh wants something to happen, nothing and no one can get in its way.

Al-Hasan Al-Basrî ra solves my overthinking problems by saying that the life of this world is made up of 3 days:

• yesterday has gone with all that was done
• tomorrow, you may never reach
• today is for you so do what you should do today.

None Will Enter Jannah Except By The Mercy Of Allāh

Prophet Muḥammad Ṣallallāhu-ʿAlaihi Wa Sallam said:

لن ينجي أحدا منكم عمله ولا أنا إلا أن يتغمدني الله برحمة

“None of you will be saved (from Hellfire) by his deeds, NOT EVEN I, UNLESS that Allāh covers me by His Mercy.”

● [مختصر صحيح الجامع الصغير برقم ٥٢٢٩ ، صححه الألباني]
Shaykh ibn ‘Uthaymeen [may Allāh have mercy on him] said:

“We have not emerged in this worldly-life to dwell therein like grazing animals and for merely eating and sleeping. Rather, we have emerged in order to prepare provisions for the Afterlife.”
