 1. Trust the Almighty to fix everything. In His own time. Our job is to trust and live each day to the best of our ability. Remember, He promises ease after hardship. Be patient. 2. Don't be bothered by what people think and say about you. As you grow older, you realise that all you need is to protect your peace. Let them say whatever they want and think whatever they will. Let the Almighty deal with them. 3. Almighty. Make our last deeds our best deeds. Make our last prayer our best prayer. Take us when You’re most pleased with us. Grant us Your Paradise without reckoning. Aameen. 4. You may have broken your promise to the Almighty hundreds of times, but His Mercy is limitless & He is always waiting to forgive. Again & again. For as long as you’re repenting & turning back to Him, that’s all that matters. 5. Keep going. Don’t quit. You’ve come this far. The difficult days will make way for happier days soon enough. Remember, nothing lasts. When you feel that you can’t ...

  1. Don’t feel miserable and depressed when people misunderstand and reject you. It’s part of the Almighty’s plan to make you realize that you shouldn’t rely on His Creation but only on the One who created you. 2. Almighty. Grant us the strength and patience to face the challenges sent our way. You are our only hope. Without You, we have no one and nothing. Guide us every step of the way. We know You have our backs. Grant us success. Aameen. 3. You can’t change the past but you can build on it. Do not obsess over "if only". It’s the trick of Satan. Just focus on "what’s next". We don’t know what lies ahead but the Almighty does. Be optimistic and trust His plans. 4. What the heart sees, the mind preserves. Be careful. That’s why it’s important to lower the gaze. Letting the gaze go astray makes the heart blind; it can’t tell between truth & falsehood. It also cloaks the heart with darkness while lowering the gaze clothes it in light. 5. You didn’t get what you...

  1. Don’t fear your struggles. Face them head on. They’re part of life. Sacrifice in order to emerge from your life tests in a way that’s pleasing to the Almighty. Remember, we will ALL be tested. There are no exceptions. 2. Each time you feel dejected and defeated by your trials, remember that this world never spared the prophets and the righteous. They too faced their share of injustice. So don’t waste your time expecting the world to give you a pat on your shoulder. 3. Don’t feel disappointed. It's natural to stumble, lose some hope & get impatient during life's challenges. It can happen to anyone. But if we remember that it’s part of the Almighty’s Plan, we will see things in perspective. We will sooner or later realise the hidden blessings behind the trials. 4. If you want to change for the better, work on yourself quietly. Growth is usually quiet. You don’t have to explain yourself to anyone. Let them wonder what’s going on. It’s not their business anyway. The Almigh...

 1. Almighty, as the Hajj begins, we ask You to safeguard the health and well-being of all pilgrims. Protect them from any sickness and grant them a safe and fulfilling pilgrimage. Protect the pilgrims from extreme weather and danger and keep them under Your Divine care. Aameen. 2. Why do you worry what others are saying about you behind your back? If the Almighty is for you and He helps you, no one can defeat you. Go forth and do what you do best. 3. Learn to listen more and speak less. Learn to observe more and react less. You’ll be able to pick up a lot more than if you were busy speaking and reacting. And trust me, it would save you from a whole lot of trouble. 4. Stop worrying. Stop overthinking. Stop being pessimistic. If you trust the Almighty as you say you do, then put in your best effort and leave the rest to Him. He will work it out for you according to His timing. Not yours. 5. Never tire of doing good, even small acts. We often hear people say that no one notices any...
