‘The days which are the heaviest on your heart due to hardship and the pain, may also be the days which are heaviest on your scale of reward, so long as you are patient and anticipating reward.’
A gentle reminder:
You'll always have two choices - you can focus on the mistake, (or) you can focus on the One who can fix it. You can focus on the problem, (or) on the One who can solve it. You can focus on the sin, (or) on the One who can erase it.
The Prophet ﷺ said: “the people who face the most difficult tests are the prophets, then the righteous, then those following them in degree. A person is tested according to his religion/faith. Thus, if there's firmness in his faith, then the trial gets increases, and if there's a weakness, then it gets lightened. Verily, a trial remains with a servant until he walks the earth having no sin left upon him.” [Bukhari] 💜
Your diet is not only 'what you eat'. It's also what you watch, what you listen to, what you read, the people you hang around. Be mindful about the things you put into your body, emotionally, spiritually, mentally and physically.
Be mindful of what you consume everyday: with your eyes, ears, mouth and body, as it ultimately affects the soul.
“Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) has created angels with purpose but with no desires, and He has created animals with desires and with no purpose. But Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) created man with both (purpose and desires). Therefore, when a person's purpose is stronger than his desires, he becomes closer to being an angel and on the other hand, if your desires are stronger than your purpose, than you become closer to being an animal.”🕊️
-Imam Ibn Qayyim
When ٱللَٰه is angry with you, He won't stop oxygen nor stop giving food to you, but He will seal your heart, He will take away His hidayah from you, He will take away salah from you. You think it is you who is not praying? No, it is ٱللَٰه who Has taken the privilege of sujood from you.

Their lack of effort does not mean you should take it upon yourself to put in more.
اشرب قهوتك، واعتنق الصمت، ولا تأخذ الناس على محمل الجد.. لا تأخذ الحياة على عاتقك، ولا تبالغ في عاطفتك، ولا تُرضي أحدًا رغمًا عنك.
Drink your coffee, embrace the silence, do not take people seriously, do not take life upon yourself, do not exaggerate your emotions, and do not please anyone against your will.
- Mahmoud Darwish
