life lesson by mufti menk-225

 

1.Do you wonder why everyone else seems happy but you. You see this on social media & you’re finding it hard to come to terms with it. You can’t achieve the lifestyle you want but you see others have. You need to get back to real life. Stop the comparison.

2.Not everyone will want the best for you. That’s life. The same people who wanted you to rise may feel threatened by your success. Don’t be surprised if their cheers turn to boos. Some don’t like seeing others do better than them because it shows up their weakness.

3.Almighty. You are our comfort & strength in good times & during sudden disaster & crisis. Grant ease to those who’ve lost loved ones in the recent earthquake & floods. Lift those who’ve fallen, sustain the rescue workers. Fill us with hope; may we never despair of Your Mercy.

4.Quit worrying about what people think. Honestly, it doesn’t matter. They’re entitled to their thoughts. At the end of your life, you're not going to stand before people and give an account of what you’ve done. You're going to stand before the Almighty.

5.Changing people is not your job. The Almighty does that. Invite them. Be a good role model and show exemplary behaviour. Be patient. Then leave it to the Almighty. Remember, He is the Owner of guidance. He guides whom He wills.

6.It’s not always easy to walk the path to your destination. But you must and you will. No matter how difficult it gets, no matter what the challenges along the way, steel yourself. Giving up is not an option. Satan is waiting on the sidelines to see you fall. Don’t let him win.

7.How often do we overlook the big picture? We look at the nitty gritty. We want everything to be perfect. We want everything to go our way. We’re always restless, looking for warts and blemishes. Stop it. Enjoy what we have and all the blessings the Almighty has bestowed on us.

8.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.

9.Almighty. We are overwhelmed by our sins, but we never give up hope on Your Mercy. We ask You to hide our faults. Purify our souls. Strengthen our faith. Forgive us. Accept our good deeds. Above all, shower us with Your Mercy. Aameen.

10.The Almighty sees further down the road than you can. In fact He sees everything. So trust when He disrupts your plan. Trust when He says move. You’ll know what to do if you pay close attention to His signs. Things may get uncomfortable before they get better but your job is to trust Him.

11.Sometimes we only have ourselves to blame because we are what’s making us miserable. Stop being negative and stop thinking about all that’s wrong in life. Instead, count the blessings and thank the Almighty. He will reward you with even more.

12.Are you guilty of always criticizing others because you’re impatient? You expect people to behave like you. When we focus on someone else’s flaw, we stop seeing the person. We just see their mistakes. Stop this bad habit.

13.People will usually show their true colours when you’re in need of help or facing some crisis. Remember, fair-weather friends are aplenty. The hang around you in good times. Their true nature is never shown or disclosed until times of trouble. You’ll know your true friends then.

14.Are you always unhappy? Do you feel unsettled? Happiness will not come to those who are never grateful for the Almighty’s blessings. This world is not a place where you get exactly what you want. There are many out there who will never have what you have; so be thankful always.

15.Don't be so hard on yourself for making a genuine mistake. Remember, the Almighty had already planned it that way for you to learn from what went wrong. The lesson was necessary. It’s part of His Plan for you. Correct it and try your best to not make the same mistake again.
