Nice one :up: The sad thing is at times we ask God for something we know deep inside is not good for us.

So many times I've prayed for things I believed would make me 100% happy..but of course Allah Knows Best. I always received something much better in return...as humans we lack patience and understanding..if we had that we would be able to withstand so much more and always be grateful for what we have.

"May we never let the things we can't have, or don't have, or shouldn't have, spoil our enjoyment of the things we do have and can have. As we value our happiness let us not forget it, for one of the greatest lessons in life is learning to be happy without the things we cannot or should not have."

"Faith is love taking the form of aspiration. The smallest seed of faith is better than the largest fruit of happiness. It's not dying for faith that's hard, it's living up to it."

124. "But whosoever turns away from My Reminder (i.e. neither believes in this Qur'ân nor acts on its orders, etc.) verily, for him is a life of hardship, and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Resurrection."

125. He will say:"O my Lord! Why have you raised me up blind, while I had sight (before)."

126. (Allâh) will say: "Like this, Our Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) came unto you, but you disregarded them (i.e. you left them, did not think deeply in them, and you turned away from them), and so this Day, you will be neglected (in the Hell-fire, away from Allâh's Mercy)."
[ Surah, Taha, Noble Qur'an]



And that's my final pondering. May Allah) (SWT) forgive us all our sins and keep us on the Straight Path. Ameen!
