Most rumors are baseless

General George Kruk, known for his subjugation of the native Indians, wrote the following on page 77 of his famous journal: “Almost all of the misery and anxiety of the Indians originates from their imagination and not from reality.” Read more…

Being blessed with honor is also a test

If one is endowed with power, honor, status, rank, or wealth, he must realize that he is being tested. When Prophet Sulaymaan (Solomon) saw the throne of Bilqees (Queen of Sheba) brought before him, he said: Read more…

The shari`ah is made easy for you

Ease and facilitation – these are two qualities of the Shari’ah that give comfort to the believer.

We have not sent down the Qur’an unto you [O’ Muhammad] to cause you distress. (Qur’an 20: 1)

And we shall make easy for you [O’ Muhammad] the easy way [i.e. the doing of righteous deeds].  (Qur’an 87: 8)

Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope.  (Qur’an 2: 286)

Allah puts no burden on any person beyond what He has given him. (Qur’an 65: 7)  

And He has not laid upon you in religion any hardship…   (Qur ‘an 22: 78)

This life does not deserve our grief

Napoleon exclaimed in Saint Helena:

“I have attempted to recall and enumerate the number of happy days in my life, and I have found them to be thirteen in total.” And his father would often repine and say, Read more…

Good Life…

A Western thinker said:

“It is most possible for you, while you are behind steel bars, to look out upon the horizon and to smell roses. It is also extremely plausible for you to be in a castle replete with opulence and comfort, and yet be angry and discontented with your family and wealth.”

Therefore happiness is not determined by time or by place, but instead by faith in Allah and obedience to Him, matters that are rooted in a person’s heart. The heart has a far-reaching significance in that it is the place that Allah looks at and scrutinizes. If faith settles itself in the heart, happiness and tranquility will pervade both the heart and the soul.
