1a.
That's something I dreamed of all my life. And it came about because I
was stressed!
What other secret blessingsawait me? What other lifelong dreams are
quietly budding, getting ready to bloom?
Only Gratitude
That's why the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, "How amazing is the
case of the believer; there is good for him in everything, and this is
only so for the believer. Ifhe experiences something pleasant, he is
thankful, and that is good for him; and if he comes across adversity,
he is patient, and that is good for him." [Muslim]
How amazing indeed! What a treasure trove of strength and mercy there
isin this deen! Who can say that this is not a religion ofhope?
Allah rewards the believer even for the pricking of a thorn. Who can
deny that this is the attitude of a Compassionate God, One who
understand us, sees our pain, cares about our suffering, and wants
only good for us?
And what does Allah want in return? Only gratitude, and that our
actions manifest that gratitude. Nothing more.
Allah says, "And [remember] when your Lord proclaimed, 'If you are
grateful, I will surely increase you [in favor]; but if you deny,
indeed, My punishment is severe.' " [Surat Ibrahim 14:7]
Which brings us back to myopening statement. I am grateful and glad
even for the hardships. I am aware of all of Allah's favors, and when
He says, "Then which of the favors of your Lord will you deny?" my
response is, "I deny none of them, O Lord!"/
