umtaaliah:

Sometimes, Allāh removes people from our lives for our own good.

Maybe because they’re not good for us, or because we’re not good for them. Allāh knows what is best for us. We shouldn’t force things to happen. We should ask Allāh for guidance, and trust Him alone.

“I know you are in love with this person you thought was your soulmate and I know it hurts not getting the same love in return. I know you opened up to this person you thought would understand and I know it hurts not getting the response that you expected. But if I ask you this — ‘why do you feel the need to be heard by someone who doesn’t appreciate your words?’, what would you tell me? I know, it’s because your heart has built a home in someone who wants to stay barren and trust me, there is nothing in this world that could change it — this person doesn’t feel it, you can’t make them feel it. I know it hurts because at some point, it hurt me too. And I want you to know that this gets better — even if you don’t have hope, things will change with time. This person came into your life to break you into pieces and all you need is a little courage to tell yourself that you’ve had enough. All I want you to do, right at this moment, is to collect all your broken pieces and fix them as much as you can — even if it makes you tired, carry on. And here’s a warning, you can’t fix those pieces and become the happy person that you were before you met this person — instead, stitch those pieces with gold and be an artwork made with kindness. That’s what you need, that what I need and that’s what everyone else around us needs.” by memoirsofbilal (via Instagram)

“Achieve your goals in silence..”

Ibn Al-Qayyim said:

“Don’t ruin your joy with worrying, don’t ruin your mind with pessimism, don’t ruin your success with arrogance, don’t ruin people’s excitement by frustrating them and don’t ruin your day by looking at yesterday…

If you look at your life you’ll find that Allah (God) Granted you things you never asked for (yet can’t live without); so trust that He will never deprive you from something you desire except that it’s best for you…

You may be asleep but the heavens are open (for you) from hearing tens of supplications from a poor person you helped, a sad person that you made happy, or prayer from a person you smiled at or one struggling with a calamity you helped ease… so never underestimate the power of doing good; even if it seems small.”
