 life lesson by mufti menk 1. When people hurt you, most would try & hurt them back. Before you do that, just think for a moment what their lives must be like. Would you want to be in their place? Would you like to have their mindset; do what they did? If the answer is no, let it go. Say a prayer for them 2. Don’t be upset when your work is not acknowledged. It’s human nature to want recognition. Sometimes even a thank you will suffice. But it may not be forthcoming. The Almighty knows what you’ve done and how much effort and sacrifice went into it. Isn’t that the best thing for you? 3. The Almighty knows what you’re doing. He knows exactly what you’re going through. He knows you never gave up. You kept going even when the going was tough.

  life lesson by mufti menk 1. The Almighty loves it when you seek His help. When you pour your heart out to Him and ask fervently. His job is to make the impossible possible. So never think negatively of Him. We may not know what the future holds but we know who holds the key to the future! 2. Almighty. As the pilgrims gather in #Arafah on this Great Day of #Hajj , we pray that You grant them ease & accept their acts of devotion and worship. May it be a day of total forgiveness for everyone. Aameen 3. They know they’re wrong; but some people find it so hard to apologize! It’s to do with their pride. You can never get them to say sorry, no matter how obvious their mistake or wrongdoing. Beware such pride; for even the size of a mustard seed can bar you from Paradise! 4. Take social media with a pinch of salt. Don’t let it determine your identity. The Almighty doesn’t care if you have one follower or a million followers. He looks at your heart and deeds. So don’t get caught up ...

  life lesson by mufti menk 1. Just because they’re in your circle doesn’t mean they’re your real friends. Be careful who you befriend. Just because they hang out with you doesn’t mean they won’t stab you in the back. Pay attention to how they behave and react. You’ll be able to pick up the signs! 2. The Almighty can change your entire life in the blink of an eye. Have firm faith that He won’t burden you with more than you can handle. So move on; one step at a time, asking Him to grant strength & guidance. When He guides, no one can misguide! Trust the Lord of the Worlds! 3. When the Almighty gives you a new beginning, don’t repeat the same mistake. Instead have a heart filled with gratitude and thank Him for the second chance you’ve been given. Remember, not everyone gets it! 4. Almighty. You’re the only One who knows the trials and tribulations we are facing in this life. Only You know our pain & discomfort. Only You are there for our grief and sorrow. Only You have the p...
