With difficulty comes ease...

Read this in FB.  A reminder to me....


Life's struggles are hard yet they pass, because with difficulty comes ease. Within hardships there is Allah's Mercy, nothing is ever completely miserable (although it may not seem that way at times). Trials are complicated, yet they are tools used to strengthen our souls in this life, our minds in reflection, and prep our hearts towards Allah. No matter how much we are tested, Allah always provides good and the best for those who submit with trust. Our Prophet SAW promised us that the believers who put up with the just a tiny prick of a thorn with patience would be rewarded. Moreso, Allah SWT made it clear that the believers would be tested with their lives to open up another way in affirming our faith even more in Allah and the Last Day. Calamities are not always a form of earthly punishment, sometimes they are reminders that the, Most Wise, Allah, Knows we are capable of acing a chapter quiz of life. We are never given more than what we can handle. Alhamdulilah for that, alhamdulilah for everything.
