Try Kindness

Never feel hurt when you bestow good or kindness on others yet when you are in need, you find that all that kindness you gave did not come back to you. Alhumdulillah, sufficient is Allah for he who places all his needs in Allahs hand  -  let your heart shine and continue to do good because Allah is watching and that is all that matters.

Narrated 'Aisha (r.a.): "Allah's Messenger  said, "Be calm, O 'Aisha!  Allah loves that, one should be kind and lenient in all matters." (Bukhari)

"Give gifts to one another, for gifts take away malice." (Mishkat) "The messenger of Allah  used to accept gifts and give gifts in return." (Bukhari)

وَلَمَن صَبَرَ وَغَفَرَ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ لَمِنْ عَزْمِ الْأُمُورِ

And verily, whosoever shows patience and forgives that would truly be from the things recommended by Allah.

Surat Ash-Shūraá (42:43)

Have a fantastic weekend, my dear ones:)

Good hearts

Narrated Anas bin Malik (Radi-Allahu 'anhu): The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) said, "Allah has appointed an angel in the womb, and the angel says, 'O Lord! A drop of discharge (i.e.of semen), O Lord! a clot, O Lord! a piece of flesh.' And then, if Allah wishes to complete the child's creation, the angel will say. 'O Lord! A male or a female? O Lord! wretched or blessed (in religion)? What will his livelihood be? What will his age be?' The angel writes all this while the child is in the womb of its mother."

Bukhari Vol. 4 : No. 550

To find good-hearted people, is like searching for a raw diamond. Sometimes I am left shocked at how much of bad is out there. It is a wonder if our personalities/ good-hearts are solely dependent on our fate's direction or if childhood culturing, environment and values affect that as we so often think. As much as we like to think people change, they don't really...but we can become wiser, we can become purer in our thoughts, we can purify our hearts. Only if Allah wills.  Wa Allahu A3lam
