When you feel down and it seems as if the path you are on in your life is shaky, turn to Allah.
When you feel mad because something in your life wasn't what you wanted, thank Allah.
When you feel happy because you got exactly what you dreamt of, praise Allah.
When you feel as if there is no hope for you and you want to give up know "Verily with Hardship comes Ease" (94:6).
A couple months ago when I was journaling and was writing exactly what I wanted this blogpost to say, so I thought it would only be appropriate to just give the raw version so,
"I want to try to help anyone going through something and tell them I'm there for them and if for some reason I can't be, Allah(swt) ALWAYS is. He knows what we are going through and gives His strongest soilders the hardest tests. If we ever feel helpless we should turn to Him(swt) and without even having to say anything, we just have to think it because "He known what is in the hearts." But it's our job to take the initiative and ask Him for help because "Allah never changed the condition of a people unless they strive to change themselves." I also want to make a new mindset to always see the bright side of things because it's all about "Perspective". Why be sad when you can be happy and why add hate when you can spread love?"
So that was a little entrance into what's in my mind and it's true, if you need anything don't be afraid to hmu but before you talk to people, talk to Your Creator because even though He already knows how you are feeling He will still ALWAYS be there to listen. There's a saying that "The greater the struggle the greater the results" and it's true - with every test you have the opportunity to increase your rank in Jannah iA.
Because after all that is the goal. Jannah. Everything is temporary - Happiness and Sadness alike. So, enjoy the moment and before doing something ask yourself, "Will this please Allah(swt)" and if the answer is yes you're good to go. Islam is very clear Black and White, if you see any gray and have to question the answer there might be other factors in the equation. I am by no means perfect and we are all after the same goal. "We shouldn't be upset about people trying to pull us down, we should let them be the reason we are so high up."
With all that being said, I think I've expressed all the things I planned and am content Alhamdulilah. If you liked this make sure to let me know and who knows, maybe I'll make a pt.2 if you want. Thank you so much for making it this far and I appreciate you. Have an amazing day, sweet heart.
