اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ اللهِ وَبَرَكَا تُهُ


She heard something and so.. that was the time where she could not control the tears from coming out. She tried so hard, to not letting the tears rolling down through her cheeks. As she feel like the burden seemed to be... getting... heavier than before. but somehow, her friend asked her to just let go all of the feelings. in the end, yes. she did cried but still, she didn't let it all out. 

She has been thinking about calling that particular person, but she does not have the guts to do so. She's a coward. yes. that's a fact. 

someone saw she cried that day and that night, that someone gave her an iPad and let her read this one memorable notes.  

"Often what makes us fall into despair is focusing on the wrong things. 
For example, if we’ve sinned, we focus on the sin, rather than the Most Merciful.
 If we’re broken, we focus on the break instead of Al Jabbar, the One who mends.
 If we are in pain, we focus on the pain itself, instead of on the One who removes all pain.
 If we are wounded, we focus on the wound instead of on the One who heals all wounds.
 If we’re scared, we focus on the fear, instead of the Protector.
 And if we’re facing a problem, we see the problem, but not the One who can solve it. 

We see the lion, but not the lion tamer.
We see the imperfections of dunya, but not the perfection of Allah.

We see the immediate, but not the Tomorrow, the tree, but not the fruit, the thorn, but not the rose. All our pain, all our despair, all our hopelessness, stems from looking at the creation, instead of the Creator. 

Ask yourself: what is your heart looking at?



-Yasmin Mogahed   "
Then she realized, she need to change. she need to change the way she look at everything that is happening in her life. as she remember this, "Laa yukallifullahu nafsan illa wus’aha; Allah does not oblige a soul save to the extent of its capacity.."

May Allah ease everything. Amin.
