I heard Allah’s Apostle (p.b.u.h) saying, “We (Muslims) are the last (to come) but (will be) the foremost on the Day of Resurrection though the former nations were given the Holy Scriptures before us. And this was their day (Friday) the celebration of which was made compulsory for them but they differed about it. So Allah gave us the guidance for it (Friday) and all the other people are behind us in this respect: the Jews’ (holy day is) tomorrow (i.e. Saturday) and the Christians’ (is) the day after tomorrow (i.e. Sunday).”

Among the greatest of blessings is to have a calm, stable, and happy heart. For in happiness the mind is clear, enabling one to be a productive person. It has been said that happiness is an art that needs to be learned. And if you learn it, you will be blessed in this life. But how does one learn it? A basic principle of achieving happiness is having an ability to endure and to cope with any situation. Therefore you should neither be swayed nor governed by difficult circumstances, nor should you be annoyed by insignificant trifles. Based on the purity of the heart and its ability to endure, a person will shine. When you train yourself to be patient and forbearing, then hardship and calamity will be easy for you to bear.

Dissatisfaction opens the door that leads to doubt in Allah: in His Decree, in His Wisdom, and in His Knowledge. Rarely is the complainer free from these accompanying doubts that mix within his heart and permeate his being. If he were to delve deep into his self with honest introspection, he would find his faith to be infirm and questionable. Contentment and faith are like brothers that accompany one another; meanwhile, doubt and discontentment have a similar fraternal relationship. Tirmidhi related that the Prophet (bpuh) said: Read more…

The author of Ease after Difficuhy mentioned the story of a wise person who was afflicted by calamity. His brothers went to him and tried to console him over his loss. He answered, `I have put together a remedy that is composed of six ingredients.’ They asked him what those ingredients were, and he answered, Read more…

If you toss and turn during the night without being able to fall asleep, do the following:
1. Remember Allah with Prophetic supplications or supplications taken from the Qur’an:
Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest. (Qur’an 13: 28)
2. Avoid sleeping during the day, except when you have no other choice:
And have made the day for livelihood. (Qur’an 78: 11)
3. Read or write until sleep comes:
And say: My Lord! Increase me in knowledge. ‘(Qur’an 20: 114)
4. Work hard during the day:
And [it is He no] makes the day Nushur [i.e. getting up and going about here and there for daily work, etc., after one’s sleep at night or like resurrection after one’s death]. (Qur’an 25: 47)
5. Consume stimulants such as coffee and tea in moderation.

Verily, the One Who provides sustenance is Allah. He has made it binding upon Himself that whatever provision He has written for His slaves will reach them.
And in the heaven is your provision, and that which you are promised. (Qur’an 51: 22)
If Allah is the One Who provides for the creation, why curry favor with people? And why should one degrade himself in front of another person in the hope of procuring from him his sustenance? Allah said:
And no [moving] living creature is there on earth but its provision is due from Allah. (Qur ‘an 11: 6)
Whatever of mercy i.e. e. of good], Allah may grant to mankind, none can withhold it, and whatever He may withhold, none can grant it thereafter: (Qur’an 35: 2)
Do not be sad, for there are means of making it easier to bear calamity. Among them are the following:
1. Expecting reward and recompense from Allah, the Exalted: only those who are patient shall receive their rewards in full, without reckoning.? (Qur’an 39: 1O)
2. Visiting those who are afflicted and seeking comfort in that you are better off than many others.
A poet said:
“If not for the many mourners around me,
Who weep for their brothers, I would have taken my own life.”
So look at those who surround you. There will not be one, except that hardship or affliction has touched him.
