  1. Protect your heart well. Don’t just hand it to anyone. The strength of your heart comes with the worship of the Almighty. Is your heart at ease when you’re alone? Do you always need to be in the company of others? Only when you remember Him often will your heart find peace. 2. You’ll be hurt, you’ll be in pain. You’ll fall. That’s part of life. But as long as you get hold of yourself and get back up again, you’ll be fine. Don’t waste time. Don’t dwell too long on your mistakes. Learn from them and keep going. Life goes on. 3. Almighty. We thank You for guiding us when we felt lost & didn't know where to go, for always being there when everyone abandoned us, for shining Your light when we felt afraid of the dark & for carrying us through when we thought we couldn't make it. 4. Your character is more important than your comfort. The Almighty is not going to give you more if you have not learned how to be content; how to count your blessings. Contentment means your ac...

1. When you feel guilt in your heart after you’ve sinned, be grateful. It’s the Almighty’s way of telling you to repent and do good. He’s offering you a way out after you’ve gone against what He has prescribed. That’s His Mercy. 2. Be wary of people who drain the positive energy right out of you, leaving you feeling frustrated, drained & unhappy. Shift your focus from trying to change other people & instead focus on making yourself feel better. 3. Pray even when it’s a struggle. Standing in prayer is not a last resort. It’s not what we do after we’ve read the self-help books, after we tried to get help from people or after we surfed the internet. Prayer is our lifeline to the One who made us. 4. It takes a lot of courage to stand alone & be yourself. It takes a lot of courage to be different. It takes a lot of courage to not compromise your faith. Some will try to make you feel like a freak for not standing with the crowd. That’s ok. Listen to your heart. 5. In a world tha...

  1. Don’t give up now. You’ve come this far. The difficult days will make way for happier days soon enough. Remember, nothing lasts. So when you see a day where you think you can’t possibly get out of bed to face the world, don’t worry or panic. Better and brighter days are ahead. 2. Don’t take this life for granted. Here today, gone tomorrow is real and many of us have seen it happen to our loved ones and close friends. We never know when our time will be up. So forgive, spread goodness and pray that the Almighty takes us when He is most pleased with us. 3. Let people say what they want about you because sooner or later your actions will speak for themselves. There is no need to overreact when someone puts you down. You can make sure that you don't let them upset you by simply sticking to what you do best. 4. Almighty. Give us the strength and courage to stay firm and hold on to our belief. Don’t make us among those who lose ourselves in a crowd just because we want to fit in. Ma...

  1. You think you have it tougher than others. Stand your ground. Hold on to your faith, your integrity. Don’t let anyone sidetrack you. The Almighty never promised you an easy journey. Tough times will reveal your true character. Seek His help. Be strong. Don’t quit. 2. Be careful who you seek advice from because not everyone who acts friendly is a friend. There are people out there who can mislead you, cause mischief and those who may not have the right intention. Ask the Almighty to place someone in your path whom you can trust. 3. At times we feel frustrated and confused because we don't understand everything the Almighty does. That's fine. All He wants is for you to trust Him. Wholeheartedly. 4. Don't try to win the approval of people. You'll never succeed. That's why pleasing people should never be your priority or goal. Please your Creator. 5. Learn to pray for others. Remember, the ripple effect from prayer is simply remarkable. When you pray for others, go...

  1. Each day, we face a different challenge. Some challenges are easy to get by, some are more difficult than others. Almighty, grant us the strength to make it through each challenge. We know You have better things planned for us. 2. It’s natural to feel broken if you’ve been treated badly or been the subject of rumours etc. But remember, some things are not within your control. Turn every anxiety, fear and concern into a supplication. Look at it as another reason to submit to the Almighty. Trust Him. 3. Almighty. We ask You to hide our faults. Purify our souls. Strengthen our faith. Forgive our sins. Accept our good deeds. Above all, shower us with Your Mercy. Aameen. 4. It’s a fact that some people will hate you because you are exactly what they wished but failed to be. They won’t hesitate to spread rumours and gossip about you. This is a test from the Almighty. Don’t retaliate. Let the good you do speak for itself. 5. The company you keep says a lot about you. Friends have a ...
