Beautiful Advice
“Be strong everyday. Try to stop and think at all the difficult points/steps because they all matter, even the small ones. And if you can remember to be strong, compassionate, and do the right thing— remembering what is truly important— then hopefully it will come naturally when the big stuff hits. Try to remind yourself daily that you are never alone, that God is watching & that is not a scary thing, it is a blessing and we are all going to be okay. Great things, great love is waiting in God’s plan for the future… and there is great joy/happiness buried somewhere every day if you keep your eyes open and your heart/mind clear of distractions. Don’t stop giving because returns don’t matter. To give is never fruitless, just try to start giving without ever expecting a return (I must do this in front of my children so it comes naturally to them). Try to recognize when selfishness is clouding your vision, and push it away so you can admit your mistakes and learn from them.” – Tovah

Habib Ali’s analogy on Rizq
Allah has given us a task and He is aware of our needs. Can you imagine Allah Jalla Jalalahu entrusting us with a task whilst neglecting to guarantee our sustenance?If someone were to represent a company or an institution- a big company in the eyes of the people of the world-in his own country and abroad-in order to conclude a business deal, to make a bid, or for research purposes, would the representative bear the burden of the expense?
No, because he is confident that his large, wealthy company-in his eyes-will provide him with a ticket, living expenses, travelling expenses and will also reimburse him for his entire journey. He will travel with very little worry about expenses because he is confident that his company, as long as it has contracted him to do this task, is duty-bound to fulfil his needs.
SubhanAllah ( Glory be to Allah), such is our certainty in creation- who have no ability whatsoever to benefit themselves, or to keep harm at bay- such is the strength of certainty in our hearts that no room is left to worry about expenses. This is because a component, able company has given us a task. What then, do you think of an Able Lord possessed of Absolute Ability? The Sublime Jala Jalalahu, Who gave us tasks in our life? Can you imagine Him setting us a task whilst failing to supply the necessary resources? It is incumbent upon you to have this understanding, as opposed to such fear of poverty enters your heart, or doubt in Allah’s promise of rizq.
