life lesson by mufti menk-198

1. You want inner peace? Don’t worry about what others may think of you or whatever people may say. Lower your expectation of others. Don’t be distracted by the petty talk people may throw at you. Focus on what you want to achieve and keep going.

2.Violence in all forms is totally wrong and unacceptable, no matter what our differences may be.

3.No act of kindness that you do, no matter how small will go unnoticed. The Almighty is All-Knowing and sees what you do in private and He has promised to reward you openly for your faithfulness. ‬

4.Never forget that if the Almighty wills, He can take you at any time, any place. You could be in the pink of health but if He says you must go, you’ll have to leave this world. So live in a state of preparedness and always be grateful for another day.

5.People tend to grow apart after some time. It happens. Your circle of friends and who you hang out with will change. It may be uncomfortable. Some people may find it hard to accept. But that’s life. It’s part of the Almighty’s plan. ‬

6.At times we get so caught up with what others expect from us that we neglect our own needs and what we have to work on ourselves. Remember, self-care is important too. Don’t lose perspective.

7.Focus on the right things. Things that matter. Not on other people's lives, their drama, problems & behaviour.All that isn’t your business. You need to fix what needs fixing in your life. Don’t be distracted. Don’t compare your life to others. Circumstances are never the same.‬

8.Spreading rumours is incredibly dangerous. It destroys reputations, breaks down relationships and causes mayhem in someone’s life. ‬It’s so common today because so many have lost basic decency and wouldn’t bat an eyelid mass texting such messages without verifying. Be careful.

9.Some people love to make fun of others & humiliate them in public. They lack social manners & some are plain downright rude. They are perhaps, unaware that no one has the right to humiliate or hurt another. Besides, the one humiliated may be closer to the Almighty. Be mindful.

10.Remember, you have been given the faculty to tell right from wrong. So use that choice for your own good. Each time you’re tempted to do wrong but choose to do the right thing, you grow. That’s how you develop a closer link with the Almighty.

11.You can’t possibly see & correct your own shortcomings if you’re focused on criticizing others. Remember, you’re accountable for all your actions. The Almighty will ask you about what you’ve done, not about what others have done. Save yourself by focusing on yourself. ‬

12.Bit by bit, we're being trained by social media to compare our lives instead of appreciating what we have. Be wary before it destroys us. Cultivate an attitude of gratitude.

13.Almighty. Help us to maintain ties of kinship at all costs. May we never break family ties regardless of how our family treats us. May we let go of grudges and ill feelings. May we understand that if we want Your Mercy, we need to be merciful to others.

14.Don’t stop supplicating. Don’t stop asking the Almighty. The best supplications are the ones made from the heart and in a language you’re most comfortable in. The Almighty listens to your heart. He’s All Knowing.

15.We are in a sad state today. We let society dictate the norms, we become victims of our own desires. We find it easy to please the world. We want to appear great in front of others. What about our Creator? How much are we willing to do to please Him?
