Everything will work out in the end. You don’t need to know how. You just have to trust that it will.

رَبِّ إنّيِ لِمَا أَنْزَلْتَ إلَيَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَقِيرٌ

My Lord, I am in absolute need of the good you send me.

Allah hears every cry. He knows how hard you try.

Dear Allah, I feel distant from you and it hurts especially because it’s Ramadan and I want to feel close to You in this month. Please, accept all my sacrifices for Your Sake and let me taste the sweetness of our relationship together through what I’m doing. I wish I could concentrate and focus more on my worship, but I’m doing whatever I can to fulfill the responsibilities You’ve given me in this phase of my life. So please, write me among the highest in Paradise, pour barakah into my life and let me taste the sweetness of my relationship with You through what I’m doing.

wordsnquotes

There is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft. When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife’s right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone’s right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness. There is no act more wretched than stealing.

Khaled Hosseini, The Kite Runner (via wordsnquotes)

I met you and unavoidably you were special. So now I love you.

Taqwa.

The heart is that which changes. Ya mo’alab el qoloob, thabet qalbe. يا مقلب القلوب، ثبت قلبي.

Glad tidings to those who humble themselves, and patient over what is afflicted with them.

In the remembrance of Allah comes the tranquility of the heart.

Taqwa: shift direction/focus from self to Allah which is the make or break point. Where is your heart?

Islam is what is manifested on the outward. The eman is something that is in the heart. The prophet Muhammad (PBUH) pointed to his chest three times and said; “taqwa is here, taqwa is here, taqwa is here.”

When focus is on something other than tribulation, we are not focusing on Allah. If the heart is still attached to dunyah and not turning to Allah SWT, the state will continue in terms of anxiety and hardship.
