A man found a Cocoon of a Butterfly. One day a small opening appeared;
he sat and watched the Butterfly for several hours as it struggled to
force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making
any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and
it could go no farther.
Then the man decided to help the Butterfly, so he took a pair of
scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the Cocoon. The
Butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small,
shriveled wings.
The man continued to watch the Butterfly because he expected that, at
any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support
the body, which would contract in time.
Neither happened! In fact, the Butterfly spent the rest of its life
crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was
able to fly.
What this man in his kindness and haste did not understand was that
the restricting Cocoon and the struggle required for the Butterfly to
get through the tiny opening were nature's way of forcing fluid from
the body of the Butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for
flight once it achieved its freedom from the Cocoon.
Moral:Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If
nature allowed us to go through our life without any obstacles, it
would cripple us. We would not be as strong as what we could have
been. And we could never fly. Freedom and flight would only come after
the struggle (Jihad)
Be sure we shall test you with something of fear and hunger, some loss
in goods or lives or the fruits (of your toil), but give glad tidings
to those who patiently persevere. Noble Qur'an (2:155)

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
