This, of course, is not limited to our human relationships but also in our relationship with Allah. There are lots of times we hope and pray for things but we don’t get it. I always try to console myself with the knowledge that Allah is All-knowing and that there is a very wonderful reason why I’ve been denied my request(blessings in disguise and all that). It makes it easier to pick myself up and move on.

Allahu Akbar. Early this evening I was reflecting and in my journal jotted down a few facts about the way I respond to the ‘word No’ and then I tried to find alternative responses …

My list was so long. It included make dua to Allah for help. Heat of moments it’s not always easy .. Dua requires calmness/sense of desperation for me anyways…

Then I tried to break it down to smaller segments to remember ..

This is PERFECT!! one simply instruction ask ‘Why’ I can see how it could lead to open a discussion with wisdom to arrive at the truth to make a decision good for both parties… Only gain and no loss. SubhanAllah.

May Allah reward you for every ‘why?’ a person utters after learning from this article ameen.

All the lessons are nice and important but I just love the following paragraphs, they reflect my mind.

Whatever age or stage of life we are at, it is neither too late nor impossible to change
ourselves, because Allah made us
malleable. All we need is the will to change.

I struggle in my way to Allah. I have my
weaknesses, immense weaknesses. I get
distracted, lose focus and look elsewhere.

And yet, I know that every time I look back at
my focal point, Allah, I find Him there,
with His immense Love and Mercy for me.
And so, I know it is not easy to make an effort
to understand when the emotions are whirling
in our hearts, or to take a pause when the pain
is excruciating from the blow we just faced.
Gather all your strength and ask yourself: Who
am I looking at, Allah or this world?
