“IF YOU WANT ALLAH TO BE PERSISTANT IN GRANTING YOU WHAT YOU DESIRE, THEN BE PERSISTANT IN DOING WHAT HE LOVES” (Ahmed Ibn Hanbal).*
“Allah loves to be loved” (Imaam ibn Qayyim) Any good that you do, do it for the sake of Allah Alone… because in the final analysis whatever you do is between you and Him, not you and people.
Learn to put your trust in Allah because not even a leaf falls without His permission…
If you want to know what status you enjoy in front of Allah (swt) then first analyse what status you give to Allah (swt) in your daily life…
When Allah removes something in your possession, it is only in order to empty your hands for an even greater gift!" "Gratitude is built upon five pillars: Submissiveness to Allah from the one expressing gratitude; loving Him for it; acknowledging His favour; praising Him for it; and not utilizing it in a way that displeases Him” -Ibn Al-Qayyim
“Improve your secret and private life, and Allah will improve your public and social life. Make matters well between you and Allah, and Allah will make matters well between you and people. Work for the Hereafter, and Allah will be enough for you in your worldly concerns” -Sufyan Ath-Thawri
Never say you’ll do anything without saying “insha Allah”. By saying it, you are acknowledging how powerless you are and how Powerful Allah is.
If Allah brings you to it, He will bring you through it. In Happy moments, praise Allah. In Difficult moments, seek Allah. In Quiet moments, worship Allah. In Painful moments, trust Allah. In Every moment, thank Allah.
Pain & suffering only becomes negative if it creates a barrier between you and Allah (swt). But Pain becomes positive, a motivation for you, if it brings you closer to Allah Subaanahu WaTaala…
PS…I got this from Internet and just wanted to share.
