Beware of sadness (احذروا الحزن):
Ibn Al Qayyim may Allah have mercy on him said the word (الحزن) – (sadness) does not appear in the Quran only in the form of forbidding it (ولا تهنو ولاتحزنوا) or in the form of negating it (فلاخوف عليهم ولا هم يحزنون).
And the reason for this is because there is no benefit for having sadness in the heart. The most beloved thing to the shaitan is to make the believing slave sad by taking him off track.
The Prophet (ﷺ) sought refuge in Allah (Almighty) from sadness:
(اللهم إني أعوذ بك من الهم والحزن)
Ibn Al Qayyim rahimahullāh said: Sadness weakness the heart and diminishes determination and wanting to go forward. And there is nothing more beloved to the shaitan than the sadness of a believer.
For this reason, be happy, optimistic and think good about Allah (Almighty). Have trust in what Allah (Almighty) is able to do and depend on Him. You will find happiness and pleasure in all situations.
Ibn Al Qayyim rahimahullāh said: Don’t ruin your happiness with worry and don’t ruin your mind with pessimism. Don’t ruin your success with deception and don’t ruin the optimism of others by destroying it. Don’t ruin your day by looking back at yesterday.
If you think about your situation, you will find that Allah (Almighty) has given you things without asking, so have trust in Allah (Almighty) that He doesn’t prevent anything you want except there is goodness for you.
You could be sleeping and the doors of the heavens are being opened with duas being made on your behalf, Subhan Allah: perhaps from someone poor whom you helped, or someone sad whom you brought joy or someone passing by and you smiled at him, or someone in distraught and you removed it.. so don’t ever underestimate any good deeds.
One of the righteous predecessors said: I make dua’a to Allah (Almighty) for something I want, and if He gives it to me then I’m happy once and if He doesn’t give it to me then I’m happy ten times because the first was my choice and the second was Allah’s choice.
As Sa’ady may Allah have mercy on him said: life is short so don’t shorten it with worries, grief, and sadness.
So be the owner of a heart that breathes happiness and satisfaction.
· May Allah (Almighty) make your times happy and may Allah (Almighty) forgive us all. Ameen.

You should not rejoice or mock the Muslim going through a hardship, especially the imprisoned
The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ said, “Do not rejoice over the misfortune of your brother, lest Allah have mercy upon him and afflict you with trials.”
[Sunan al-Tirmidhī 2506]

Knowledge Is Only Attained by Striving and Learning. It Requires Utmost Effort and Dedication.
By Allah, during the summer the people used to come to me in masses and beg me to teach them Arabic. After I’d agree, they’d appear for the first couple of weeks, then on the fourth week, the majority would disappear. Only a handful of students would remain attending the class. Those who were dedicated and sincere, they’d leave speaking fluent Arabic Fushaa in less than 3 months as well as memorising Al-Baqarah completely. What’s the point of this? The point is, knowledge cannot be attained without patience and dedication. It requires striving, sincerity and time, you cannot attain it overnight. There is no shortcut. Look at those who reached the peak of their fields, they began just as you did and they strove hard. There is no magic formula. It is only those who remain patient and sincerely strives who taste the fruits of their efforts at the end. As for the one who began and gave up, he attained nothing at all, and the little he learnt will slip away from him faster than the blink of an eye because he stopped learning and thought it was sufficient for him.
Arabic is not a hard language to learn at all. However, like anything, it requires patience and hard work.

يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ لَا تَتَوَلَّوۡاْ قَوۡمًا غَضِبَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيۡهِمۡ قَدۡ يَئِسُواْ مِنَ ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ كَمَا يَئِسَ ٱلۡكُفَّارُ مِنۡ أَصۡحَٰبِ ٱلۡقُبُورِ
O you who believe! Take not as friends the people who incurred the Wrath of Allah (i.e. the Jews). Surely, they have been in despair to receive any good in the Hereafter, just as the disbelievers have been in despair about those (buried) in graves (that they will not be resurrected on the Day of Resurrection).

“Do not get the perception that slander and backbiting is only by tongues and lips. It could be by a wink or a gesture, and it only gets worse on Twitter, Facebook and internet forums. Does that count? Yes that does count. Someone might say “but I was disguised by the screen and nobody knew”.

Knows he not that Allāh does see [what he does]? [Sūrat al-‘Alaq: 14]”

Beware of The Day where we will all stand before Allāh and answer for every word that left our lips. Allāh سبحانه وتعالى may forgive us for what’s between us and Him, but what’s between us and the believers will only be forgiven by those who we wronged. May Allāh allow us to either speak good beneficial words or remain silent.
