life lesson by mufti menk-236

 

1.Manage your expectations. Don’t expect anything from anyone. Whatever you get in return for your kindness is a bonus. Do things solely for His sake. Your reward is with Him alone.

2.Almighty Allah. Put an end to this traumatic one and a half months. Protect the people of Palestine and pave a way for them to carry on with their lives. May Your Mercy prevail, bringing comfort and safety to the people in these challenging times. Aameen

3.How is it that they’re allowed to say “flatten Gaza” without any repercussions but the minute we highlight their atrocities, we are accused of inciting violence!

4.Be calm. Every oppressor will be dealt with. In this world and the Hereafter!

5.Never in my life did I imagine that such gruesome atrocities would be committed against an entire population, watched by the nations of the world, with some even justifying it. What's worse is that the perpetrators themselves were victims of similar persecution in the not so distant past. The need to repeatedly say, "We're the most moral army in the world" can only be because the opposite is true. In fact they're heartless criminals who are guilty of occupation, war crimes, genocide and a modern day holocaust. Shame upon you! Shame!

6.The good & the bad you’ve experienced has moulded you into the person you are today. Value the journey of gaining wisdom through your hardships. The only power your hardships & mistakes should hold is the ability to turn you into something more powerful than you were before.

7.Almighty. We seek Your help amid the pain & escalating violence going on in Palestine. Protect the people from the aggression. We ask You to bring justice to the people. We pray for those killed & the civilians being targetted daily. You are our refuge & strength.

10.Keep asking the Almighty to grant the oppressed strength and patience. Keep asking Him to bring swift justice to the world. Don’t feel helpless or worse, hopeless. We know we can make a difference with our supplications. So don’t stop asking Him.

11.It’s darkest before dawn. So if you feel like giving up, hang on for a little longer. The Almighty knows how much your heart aches. He will grant relief at the perfect time. Trust Him.

12.Laying claim to what’s not yours is wrong. Creating a false narrative to justify your actions is wrong. You may derive a temporary high from ousting a whole population to achieve your goals. But it’s short-lived because the Lord of the Worlds is most fair . He knows your plan and will show you who’s in control. Soon.

13.They can bomb all they want. They can destroy all they want. They think they are the sustainers … They forget that the Almighty is the Only Sustainer. Surely He provides for whoever He wills without limit.

14.The world seems like a dark place now. We are broken. The double standards, the hypocrisy, the apathy, the hate. It’s weighing us down. Yaa Allah! We ask You to grant us the strength to carry on.

15.Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse.. hospitals are under attack relentlessly. It’s heart wrenching to see the people sheltering there being displaced. With 11,0000 lives already lost, is there any shred of humanity left?
