Hope in Allāh

As human beings, it is normal to go through life facing trails and tribulations,not knowing whether we'll see the light at the end of the tunnel. Facing moments of dispair.Struggling to think of the positives and only focusing on the negatives.

Leading us to bad habits and doing things we will sooner or later regret, whether it's with words or actions,bringing the wrath of Allāh unto us and repelling His mercy upon us.

Yet we forget, that we're not meant to have an easy life, Allāh gives us tests upon tests every day, in order to bring us closer to Him, to ask Allāh only for help, to rely on the creator and not the creation, to know that if we endure through these hardships, Allāh will reward us immensely in the aakhirah. We don't go through what we go through, for nothing - there's a lesson, there's wisdom and goodness in our pain and suffering, SubhānAllāh, but we do not realise this. To remember that after difficulty comes ease and Allāh is so kind and merciful to His creation, though we are not deserving as we're sinful servants and yet Allāh is Al-Ghafoor, The Most Forgiving.

Allāh mentions in the Qur'aan

"Remember me and I'll remember you".

Whether we're in a good or bad situation never forget that Allāh is with you in any and every situation.

And most importantly, never loose hope in Allāh as it is Allāh who puts you into that situation and it is only Allāh who can bring you out of it, Allāh will never burden your soul with what it cannot bear.

May Allāh ease your hardships and keep you with āfiyah.آمين

Daily Hadith

Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'ala Rasulillah

Narrated Ibn 'Umar (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) forbade that a man should be  made to get up from his seat so that another might sit on it, but one  should make room and spread out. Ibn 'Umar disliked that a man should  get up from his seat and then somebody else sit at his place.

Bukhari Vol. 8 : No. 287

[ahyaaa]

“When you exhale, giving out breaths of regret, they rise and form clouds, to patter upon you drops of forgiveness. And if you shed a tear on the cheek of repentance, you will give life to your barren heart.”

“...and whosoever is mindful of God, He will always make for them a way out of difficulty, providing for them from sources they never could imagine; and whoever trusts in God, He is sufficient for them, for God will certainly carry through what He Wills.”

— Qur'ān, 65:2-3

[ahyaaa]

إذا أراد الله لك خيراً، جنّد كل من على الأرض لينالك هذا الخير، وإذا أراد الله منعك من شر، سخر كل من على الأرض ليحميك منه فلا تخف واطمئن، فأمر الله نافذ بكل حال.

If Allah intends good for you, He will mobilize everyone on earth to bring you that good. And if Allah intends to protect you from harm, He will employ everyone on earth to shield you from it. So do not be afraid and be at peace, for Allah's command will prevail in all circumstances.

وَإِن يَمْسَسْكَ ٱللَّهُ بِضُرٍّۢ فَلَا كَاشِفَ لَهُۥٓ إِلَّا هُوَ ۖ وَإِن يُرِدْكَ بِخَيْرٍۢ فَلَا رَآدَّ لِفَضْلِهِۦ ۚ يُصِيبُ بِهِۦ مَن يَشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِۦ ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلْغَفُورُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

“And if Allah touches you with harm, none can remove it but Him; and if He intends for you good, then none can repel His bounty. He causes it to reach whom He wills of His servants. And He is the Forgiving, the Merciful.”

(Quran 10:107)

[ahyaaa]

O Allah, grant us what we are unable to say, what is difficult for us to articulate but of you know, O Allah accept each silent prayer in our hearts that we do not know how to raise to you…

اللهم اني استودعتك ما دعيت ومافي قلبي وانت على كل شيءٍ قدير

[ahyaaa]

“sometimes Allah makes you feel weak and lonely in order to remind you that you will always be in need of Him and His strength."

Without His assistance, we can't do anything.

Beautiful advice of Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم given to his companion:

قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : يا عقبة بن عامر ! صل من قطعك و اعط من حرمك و اعف عمن ظلمك:

The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: "O Uqbah son of 'Aamir, reconcile with whoever cuts you off, give whoever deprives you and ignore the ones who wrongs you ".

‏من ظنَّ بِالله خيرًا، فلنْ يُخيِّب الله ظنَّه، ومن شكر الله علىٰ نعمةٍ، زادهُ الله مِن فضله، ومن توكَّل على الله فهو حسبه

Whoever thinks well of Allah, Allah will not disappoint them. Whoever thanks Allah for a blessing, Allah will increase them in His bounty. And whoever relies on Allah, He will suffice them.

Imam Ibn Rajab رحمه الله said:

‏ومن أعظم ما يحصل به محبة الله تعالى من النوافل : تلاوة القرآن ، وخصوصاً مع التدبر .

“From the greatest of nawafil which bring about the love of Allah is the recitation of the Quran, particularly with pondering and reflection.”

It was narrated from Abu Dharr Al-Ghifari that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

“Indifference towards this world does not mean forbidding what is permitted, or squandering wealth, rather indifference towards this world means not thinking that what you have in your hand is more reliable than what is in Allah’s Hand, and it means feeling that the reward for a calamity that befalls you is greater than that which the calamity makes you miss out on.”

Sunan Ibn Majah, 4100
