Reminder to self....

“…again the past is important, because it tells you what level you can reach, but you can’t hang on to that and assume that's gonna get you into Jannah, your current state is the most important thing that you should be reflecting on…”

Shaikh Husain Abdul Sattar

Do not try to run away from trials and 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 thread in their footsteps as they walk along their highway, emulating their example.
