Abdulla How do we observe patience? - In the same manner that we fast; completely certain that the adhān of Maghrib will eventually be called.” I've specifically tabbed 25 reminders that I hope will help me and always be reminded of whenever I'm in a dilemma. In so many ways, I was in the state of constant realisation while I was reading this book. I've learned so many things and it is mainly to be sincere, humble and firm in life.

Someone asked al-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī : “What is the secret to your piety?” He replied: “I understood four things: I understood that my rizq (provision/sustenance decreed by Allah ﷻ) cannot be taken by anyone, so my heart become content. I understood that no one can do my actions (worship) for me, so I started doing them myself. I understood that Allah is watching me, so I became ashamed to do wrong. I understood that death is waiting for me, so I started to prepare for my meeting with Allah” I am not worried about whether my dua will be responded to, but rather I am worried about whether I will be able to make dua or not. So if I have been guided (by Allah) to make dua, then (I know) that the response will come with it." it covers themes like sadness, destiny, how to be a better version of yourself as a believer, the weigh of good actions and behaviour, the sorrow, bad influences so much more The more you have good expectations of your Lord and hope in Him, the more you will rely on Him and trust in Him."

Do not carry the worries of this life because this is for Allah. And do not carry the worries of sustenance because it is from Allah. And do not carry anxiety for the future because it is in the Hands of Allah. Carry one thing: pleasing Allah. Because if you please Him, He pleases you, fulfills you and enriches you.” Don’t let your definition of success, failure or self-worth be anything other than your position with Him. And if you do this, you become unbreakable, because your handhold is unbreakable. You become unconquerable because your supporter can never be conquered. And you will never become empty because your source of fulfillment is unending and never diminishes.”8” You know what the Quran teaches me? The Quran teaches me that an incredibly wealthy man can be a failure (Pharaoh) and a homeless man can be successful (Prophet Ibrāhīm ). It teaches me that success has nothing to do with wealth and failure has nothing to do with poverty.” Al-Hasan Al-Basri, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Indeed, those who came before you saw the Quran as personal letters from Allah the Almighty. So they pondered over it by night and yearned for it by day. 52:19 On his death bed, Mohammad Ibn Wassy said goodbye to all his family and companions and said: Peace be upon you, either to the Fire or to the Jannah through the mercy of Allah the Almighty. [Al-Hilyah]

A poet said: "It (the worldly life) is founded on distress yet you want it, free of harm and distress."." In describing who and what I am, I am no more than a slave to Allah. I write in an attempt to first save and admonish myself then my beloved brothers and respected sisters in faith. I advise those who have read my work to be inspired from it and embark on a similar journey to help the wider Muslim community. In doing so, you will not only benefit others, but benefit yourself first through the reminders, continuous charity even after death and renewing of your knowledge and faith when engaged with the heart-soothing material. May Allah aid you in your efforts and striving to gain His pleasure and reward. My suffering became easier because my Lord promised me ease, not once, but twice: “So truly where there is hardship there is also ease; truly where there is hardship there is also ease.” [Quran 94:5-6]” Ibn Uyaynah said: They were of the opinion that salvation from the Fire occurs through the mercy and forgiveness of Allah alone, and entry into Jannah occurs by His grace alone, but the apportioning of ranking occurs in accordance to one's deeds. Although Allah ﷻ knows what is bothering you and what your problems are, He wants you to talk to Him, through the believer’s most powerful weapon: dua.”

Their Lord gives them good tidings of mercy from Him and approval and of gardens for them wherein is enduring pleasure. [9:21] 61:11 61:12 Islamic scholars differed about the meaning of this, falling into different opinions: Entry into Jannah is accorded by Allah’s mercy, however the assignment of ranking and the station in Jannah is done in accordance to the deeds one done in their life. It is described in The Quran as the state of tadarru'- a state of humility and need for Allah. A believer will feel sad at times, but a believer should not despair."
