More than just a Great reminder

'It's not enough to just say "I'm not a homosexual but I don't have anything against homosexuals". You know it's wrong, it's haraam...'
Allaah Knows Best

Tolerance Kit: dealing with things that upset or disturb you

I was recently disturbed by some incidents that upset me, and sort of angered me a bit, but I somehow try to shrug it off. However it inspired me to think positively and come up with this article where i'll try to break down the unique advantages that might help you gain tolerance as well when coming across such things c: And i'm also still trying to fight anger...it's not easy~

Console yourself with some positive thoughts
(Hey, it's just my suggestions, I stand corrected)
These thoughts can also be useful for other types of misfortunes.

1.Maybe it's not right, maybe this isn't for me (loss of things/friends/goal, etc) Allaah knows what's best for me. I may like something that's not good for me and I may dislike something that's good for me. (But if it's a conflict between a friend who's Muslim, remember you can't totally cut ties with him as he's your brother in Islaam)
2.Maybe it's a trial Allaah has given you, but compare with the more difficult trials the first few Muslims had to go through. Just be patient for a bit. This is nothing compared to their sacrifice of family, blood and life.
3.Shrinks your ego.
4."Oh well, there are many other things to be happy for~"
5.And probably it can inspire you somehow just like how it inspired me to write this Tolerance Kit c;


And after thinking of that, probably you'll feel good you'll forget about being upset and probably say 'Alhamdulillaahi Rabb Al-'Aalameen' (All Praise To Allaah, The Lord of the worlds)

"The strong is not the one who overcomes the people by his strength, but the strong is the one who controls himself while in anger."
Sahih Al-Bukhari 8.135, Narrated by Abu Huraira رضي الله عنه


Hope this is beneficial. It's just a decent kit, typical of flaws, so I stand corrected. There should be more thoughts - you can think of more yourself. May Allaah guide us in our lives.

We're all going through the same thing, just a bit different here and there, but our destination, our mission, our Creator is the same.

(بارك الله في أمّ أيمن)
و بارك الله فبكم

O Sisters in Islaam, this is for you ♥

A Great Hadith

‎"Allah will say to that person of the (Hell) Fire who will receive the least punishment,
'If you had everything on the earth, would you give it as a ransom to free yourself (save yourself from this Fire)?'
He will say 'Yes'.
Then Allah will say, 'While you were in the backbone of Adam, I asked you much less than this (not to worship others besides Me), but you insisted on worshipping others besides Me.'"
(Sahih Al-Bukhari, Vol.4, Hadith No.551)

Because there's no 'i' in an Ummah

"This is what I want.."

Stuck in the middle of a war, she didn't know what to do except to stay close with the strangers she knew as family. She came to this unfamiliar, danger-zone land with the hope of helping lives.

However suddenly, hope emerged as a chopper (helicopter), which had her country's flag painted on it, descended just outside the house in the field. Three soldiers heavily armed got out and ran towards the house she was in. Two of them was on the look-out while the other soldier went up to her. He was young but seemed prepared.

Soldier: We received orders to bring you back home safely. We have to go soon.

She felt relieved and safe but was also confused and hesitant.

Soldier: Come on, ma'am, we'll be leaving in approximately 20 minutes. Go get your things.
She looked at him and said: Can I choose not to go?

He paused for a while and looked down.
He looked up again and asked: "Is this what you really want? To die here?"
"No", she said, "I want to die as a martyr."
He was speechless for a moment. He left her to meet with his friend outside.
He came back to her again with his friend who said to her:
"Ma'am, we received orders to fetch you. This isn't a choice. You have to come with us."
She looked down and nodded as her eyes begin to tear up, "I understand."
"I'm sorry", the young soldier said.

She quickly rushed to pack her things and then hugged the woman and her little children whom she lived with, and then said to them:
"InshaaAllaah I'll be back again."
"InshaaAllaah, my love", the old woman said.

She then left with the soldiers and flew back home safely.
