Trusting Allah’s Decisions – Even When It Hurts (1868 Views)

Lukgaf(m): 10:00am On May 30
There are moments in life when we feel we’ve done everything right.

You fasted on the white days.
You prayed at Tahajjud when the world slept.
You gave sadaqah with a trembling hope in your heart.
You raised your hands after every prayer, whispering the same dua for a job, a spouse, a visa, a child…

Yet it didn’t happen.

The contract was cancelled.
The proposal was rejected.
The exam was failed.
The visa was denied.
And you’re left wondering, Did Allah not hear me? Did He turn away?

But pause… and reflect.

> "…But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not."

(Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:216)



Allah’s wisdom is far above our comprehension. He sees what we don’t. He plans what we can’t.

I know of someone who saved up for years, did everything possible to go for Hajj, but each year, something blocked the way until one day, Allah opened the door in a way he never imagined. He wept not just from joy, but from finally understanding why the earlier delays happened.

I know of a brother who was heartbroken after losing a job contract that he thought would change his life only to return home and find his true change: a pious wife and a peaceful life.

Even for me, I once praying earnestly to gain ission into a particular university. I was serious, I fasted, did I’tikaf, made tahajjud… everything. But the ission never came. I was crushed. Four years later, Allah wrote something more beautiful: I was posted there for NYSC and got paid by the same university that once rejected me.

Dear friend, if Allah delays your request, it’s not neglect rather it’s protection.
If He redirects your path, it’s not rejection, it’s mercy.
If He gives you silence instead of a “yes,” it’s because He wants to give you something better than what you asked.

Keep trusting. Keep walking.
One day, you’ll look back and whisper, Alhamdulillah for not getting what I wanted… because what Allah gave was better.

May Allah strengthen our hearts to trust His perfect wisdom and bless us with contentment in His decree.
Ameen.

Please also teach one another to tolerate other religions and that anything jihad is evil.

Instead of an eye for an eye, teach endurance.

Promote love and peace. This should be the goal of every religion, not jihad in any form

Peace

Jihad has rule. And it was provided to prevent Muslim from other infidel's domination and oppression. What you're seeing now is not Jihad known my God. However, u can wide your knowledge.

Yeah, I get, but it is easy to misinterpret the rules governing jihad and become radicalized like we see in extremists. Even the Bible is misinterpreted, but because Christians don't killing in any form from the Bible, no Christian kills and anyone who kills is punishable by law and the Bible. That is why we as Christians have thousand denominations, still all speak one voice, thou shall not kill, and Christianity can never be wiped out.

Jihad should be abolished in every form. Killing or waring in any form should be abolished

Even those doing evils claim to be doing His Will. Terrorists, bandits, extortionists, ritualists etc!

Those who suffer grave injustice and outright mayhem also get to hear that it is the will of Allah!

Does jihad, in any form, allow killing non Muslims who do not harm Muslims in any form, or Muslims who convert to other religions?

Just an harmless question.

Even Animal can not innocently be killed talk less of human being. The only person that can be killed is who killed or help in killing Muslims not how terrorist used to raid a town and killed many innocent people.
You can as well go and search "what was was the reason of first Jihad in Islam".

so how do you prove that some helped in killing Muslims? Or is it by association?

Never, they can't do that. Islam was founded on hate.. Remove hate that religion dies.

Any religion that call others names like munafikin, infidel etc is hate based and hate attracts violence which in turn attract pain sorrow, terrorism, famine, pestilence etc... That is simply the story of Islam.

the Rwandan genocide? It started by name calling... Hate starts by denigrating others, which then emboldens you to attack them, Love has no place in Islam, so it can never attract peace.

See what I am talking about, hate is inbuilt into Islam, see this one calling others infidel.

Yet everything from electricity to your phone,, fan, TV even that Microphone that moslems like to make noise and the bomb they like to use to kill people was invented by the infidels.

Those that call others infidel do not even have the brain to make ordinary Bajaj motorcycle talk less of the internet, but they call others infidel.

So since you people have been fighting Jihad, it has stopped the so called infidels from showing you shege? Better go and fight your Jihad in Gaza, where it most required.

The whole world is now talking about AI you will never see moslems in that gathering.. Alternative source of Energy nko, they will never be there, traveling to the moon nko? No moslems? Cure to cancer? For where?

But killing, violence and terrorism... Haaa that's where you will find them, in their millions. Hate and development simply don't go hand in hand.

One thing you should always note into your brain is, no useless criminal idiot has any right to murder anyone over any religion, let alone murder indigenous people in their ancestral home over a foreign Arab religion which doesn't even concern the indigenous people in the first place! Always sink that into your criminal brain! As a matter of fact, we all know the ulterior motive of useless criminal idiots wanting to steal other people's territory!

Ok. If you're ready for mature argument we can discuss.

The irony. Maturity is to have morality and the sense to know that indigenous people in their ancestral home shouldn't be touched over any foreign religion in the first place. Only useless criminals attempt such atrocities. Always note that in your skull.
