I Am Enjoying Being A Muslim

Let's accept the reality imposed on us, then unleash our talents. Thus we turn our ordeal into a gift and pains of our life into flowers and basil.

One of the signs of relying on one’s own deeds is the loss of hope when a downfall occurs. The best place to succeed is where I am with what I’ve got.

[big]If, in spite of intense supplication, there is a delay in the timing of the gift, let that not be the cause for our despairing. For God has guaranteed us a response in what He chooses for us, not in what we choose for ourselves, and at the time God desires, not the time we desire.[/big]

[Quran 11:115]:
[quote]“Be patient (in adversity); for, verily, God will not let the reward of the righteous be wasted.”[/quote]

There's no joy for the one who does not bear sadness, there's no sweetness for the one who does not have patience, there's no delight for the one who does not suffer, and there's no relaxation for the one who does not endure fatigue.

God's responses mirror randomness. I think we're calling one thing by two different names.

Thank you for this comment. Even though I believe that God's responses come on the right moment, at the right time. They are never random.

I agree with you. But I believe that this life is a journey that leads to eternity. The goal is to cleanse our souls and meet our Lord with sound hearts.
