"Indeed We created man, and We know what his own self whispers to him."

Don't despair from the mercy of Allah

narrated in Saheeh Muslim (2744) from Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Allaah rejoices more over the repentance of His slave when he repents to Him than one of you who was on his mount in the wilderness, then he lost it, and his food and drink are on it, and he despairs of finding it. He goes to a tree and lies down in its shade, having lost hope of finding his mount, and whilst he is like that, there it is standing in front of him, so he takes hold of its reins and says, because of his intense joy, ‘O Allaah, You are my slave and I am your lord,’ making this mistake because of his intense joy.”

Some thing I read...

أحـزان قلبـي لا تـزول
حتـى أبشـر بالقـبـول
وأرى كتابـي باليمـيـن
وتقـر عينـي بالرسـول


"Sadness in my heart does not cease to exist,
Until I am given the glad tidings of the acceptance (to Jannah),
And I see my Book (of deeds) in the right hand,
And my eyes are cooled by the (sight of the) Messenger (صلى الله عليه و سلم)"

It doesn't seem so bad after all...

Volume 7, Book 70, Number 548:

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Apostle said, "If Allah wants to do good to somebody, He afflicts him with trials."

Remember Allah is with the patient

Go through the trials of life remembering the larger journey
Remembering Allah is with the patient
The sun rose and set like the years before
Years that brought you closer to deaths door
Time runs faster than only a second ago
Leaving no room for hesitation or prolonged contemplation
Do or don't do
Decide or it will be decided
That is the way of life
Never wavering, unyielding
