When you’re hurt by people who share the same blood as you, then
just remember Yusuf (AS), who was betrayed by his own brothers.
If you find your parents opposing you, remember Ibrahim (AS),
whose father led him to the fire.
If you’re stuck with a problem where there’s no way out,
remember Yunus (AS), stuck in the belly of a whale.
If you’re ill & your body cries with pain, remember Ayoob
(AS) who was more ill than you.
When someone slanders you, remember Ai’sha (RA) who was
slandered throughout the city.
When you’re lonely, recall Adam (AS) who was created alone.
When you can’t see any logic around you, think of Nuh (AS) who
built an ark without questioning.
If you are mocked by your own relatives then think of Prophet
Muhammad (SAW).
Allah (SWT) put these Prophets to trial, so that later
generations may learn a lesson of patience & perseverance.
May Allah SWT give us perspective & understanding. Aameen.
