"Be content with that which Allah has decreed for you and you will be the richest of people."
This is a saying I never understood until recently. We spend so much of our time, trying to do this, trying to do that, and then when things don't go our way, we become disheartened. Why? Because we are impatient. We want things to go our way.
Have you ever thought that if you gained what you really wanted, that thing would corrupt you? Have you ever thought that if that thing really was supposed to be yours, and was written in your destiny, it would be yours, even if you did not try?
Have you ever thought why Allaah does not let you have that thing? There is a reason behind why Allaah subhaan wa taa'la does everything.
We might not realise it at the time, because we are blinded by our desires, and the fact that we feel we need to have that thing, we don't care about anything else.
But the fact is, your Lord Knows you better than anyone else. Your Lord Knows you really want that thing - but do you realise that why Allaah is not letting you have it?
Step back, look at the situation truly from an outsider's point of view, and you will find your answer...
Your sister in Islaam,
