of trials and tribulations

(via islamic-quotes)

Do not try to run away from trials & tribulations, but endure them with patience. They cannot be avoided, and there is nothing for it but to endure them with patience. How can you expect the whole of this world, and all that has been created therein, to undergo change and transformation just to suit your convenience?

The Prophets are the best of all creatures, yet they have always had to suffer afflictions and so it is for their followers, those who tread in their footsteps as they walk along their highway, emulating their example.

- Shaykh Sayyid Abdul Qadir Jilani -

as always,

trust Allah

&

have faith.
