Don't Sweat The Small Stuff

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate
Assalaamu alaykum

Dear Friends

I pray that you are well.

This world is all about patience. It comes with a lot of trials. We have to deal this life with patience. Nothing comes easy without patience. All the day-to-day inconveniences is nothing but trials, which is to prepare us for the Great Trial of the Day of Judgment. So don't sweat the small stuff. Deal with them with beautiful manners.

If someone lied to you or promise something and didn't fulfill the promise, for example, it can cause you a lot of inconvenience because you relied on their words, but it is good for you because you get the chance to practice on your patience and a chance to draw closer to Allah. It is bad for the person who lied or promise because he has used the blessing of Allah, his tongue, to lie or promise without the resolve to fulfill it and has cause harm to others by his bad action, no matter how slight or insignificant it may seem. But it is their sin, not yours. And you have no control over other's actions but you have control over yours. Remember, Allah is with the patient ones.

We don't ask for trials, but we always ask Allah to protect us from trials.

May Allah grant us well being and strength and patience in times of trial. Ameen.

Please don't forget us in your prayers. Jazakallahu khairan.

And Allah knows best.
Wassalaam
