Hardship that forces you to turn to God is better than a blessing or a favour
that turns you away from God
***
If you want to please everybody, you will have to compromise
basic principles and become hypocritical. An upright person will always have some haters
***
Trials and tribulation are like feeling the heat and cold, when one knows
that they cannot be avoided, he will not feel the anger at their onset,
nor will be distressed or disheartened
***
It’s hard to accept the truth when the lies were exactly what you wanted to hear
***
Happiness is attained by three things: being patient when tested,
being thankful when receiving a blessing, and being repentant upon sinning
***
Thinking you are perfect is an imperfection
***
Every successful person has a painful story & every painful story
has a successful end. Learn to accept pain & prepare for ultimate success
***
Looking at those who have more than us definitely affects our
appreciation of what we have been blessed with
***
When our emotions are allowed to overtake our intellect we do
and say things we regret
***
When it comes to our own mistakes, we are expert defense lawyers; for the
mistakes of others, we act as judges on the Supreme Court.
***
We want our children to obey us yet we don’t find it important to obey
our Creator and theirs.
***
Anger is like holding on to a burning ember wanting to throw it at someone
you end up burning yourself the most
THANKS A LOT FOR SHARING,
KEEP IT UP.
Nice quotes Sara, keep them coming.
Thank you 🙂
In the above quotations nothing is new. all of them were mentioned either in the Quran and / or by the Prophet Mohammad Peace be Upon him 1400 years ago:
God says in the Quran when we bless human with the bounties he turns away and become arrogant and when we (Allah) put him in pain he panics and starts making long prays.
If you please humans by annoying Allah he makes the whole world against you and when you makes the world angry to please Allah he puts love for you in every ones heart.
The prophet Mohammad (PBUH) said the best thing for a Muslim to say All prays belongs to Allah (“ALHAMDU LILLAH) when he receives happiness and / or sorrow.
Allah says in the Quran invariably “WAS TAEENO BIS-SABRI WASSALAT” seek help from Allah with patience and prayers.
Allah also says in the Quran ” those who remember Allah standing and sitting and lying on their sides and reflect on the heavens and the earth; Our lard thou has not created this in vain! Glory to be thee save us then from the Chastisement of the hell fire.
Allah says in the Quran ” The patient and truthful and the obedient and those who spend benevolently and those who ask for his (Allah’s) forgiveness in the morning times (i.e the late night prayers).
Allah ask us to be thankful in all states (in good time and / or in the hardship). A Muslim scholar name Shiekh sa’di asked Allah for a pair of shoes afterward he went ahead and immediately fell in to prostration and started crying. People asked him Shiekh what is wrong with you a couple of minutes ago you were praying and now you are in prostration and start crying. ” I asked Allah for a pair of shoes I was very ungrateful I saw a person without feet” the Shiekh replied. So always look on people below you and see what kind and how much bounties Allah bestowed upon you so you will be grateful.
About anger Allah says in the Quran “those who spend Benevolently in ease as well as in difficulty and those who restrain their anger and pardon men Allah loves the doers of Good (to others).
These are the few verses I I have quoted from Quran May Allah guide us to the right path. If I make any mistake while quoting the above from quran; so I prayed Allah to forgive me and and guide me; Ameen.
I also request all the members on this site to read Quran with meanings so you can have knowledge and guidance.
