Shaikh A’id al Qarni gave us the following advice in his book La Tahzan (Don’t be sad)
If you are stricken by poverty…others are chained in debt
If you don’t have shoes … others have no feet
If you have committed a mistake…correct it - the doors of repentance ever open!
The fountain of forgiveness is ever rich
So dont be sad, let all bygones be bygones
What is predestined for you, you shall see it happen
Being sad will not change anything
So dont be sad
Sadness spoils your life
So dont be sad
Supplication is your shield
Prayer is your beacon
So dont be sad
***Prostrration is your means … ***
So dont be sad
See how vast is the Earth, How nice are the gardens and forests
How bright are the stars - all are happy but you are sad…
So dont be sad
You have sweet water to drink - fresh air to breather - feet to walk with
***You sleep safely in your bed ***
So dont be sad
Every cloud has a silver lining
After long nights come the bright sun
Life will soon give you a smile
So be ready to get it
***And dont be sad! ***
Real life is that spent in happiness
So cross out your sad days from your age! Peace of mind is the real treasure
***Abu Hurayra reported Allaah’s Messenger (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said: “Look at those who are inferior to you and do not look at those who are superior to you, for that is more likely to keep you from despising Allaah’s favour on you”
