Just because you’re always honest, don’t expect everyone to tell you the truth.
Just because you wish the best for others, don’t expect others to wish the same for you.
Just because you love and work for the sake of Allah, don’t expect everyone to have the same sincerity.
Just because you value friendship fisebilillah and go the extra mile, don’t expect others to be just as invested as you.
Just because you see goodness and hope in a future beautiful world according to Islamic standards, don’t expect others to share your dream.
Just because you want to be your absolute best, don’t expect others to have the same standard.
Remember that expectation leads to frustration and disappointments!
Keep going for the sake of Allah and let it be the fuel of your energy and not the people's negativity or lack of interest or guidance.
Remember that harder the conditions, higher the reward is from Allah. Remember that Allah reward for intentions too and He see and appreciate the efforts no matter whether they're appreciated and accepted or rejected and belittled by others.
Take care of your intentions, put on serious efforts and leave it in the hands of Allah. Leave it in the hands of Allah on all conditions... before, throughout the process and after it.
Alhamdulillah a ceasefire has finally been agreed upon but unfortunately it is only for 5 days. As frustrated as I am that it’s only for such a short amount of time, I’m also relieved for the people of Gaza to have a bit of a break to breathe, and they’ll be getting unlimited amount of aid coming in thank God! Praying that a miracle happens and this ceasefire stays forever and praying the IDF do not go against their word and break the agreement (because I very much struggle to trust anything the Israeli govt says)
