بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Before now, it's possible that you are doing very well business-wise or financially but all of a sudden, things began to roll down negatively with no convincing reason of what is the cause?

Are suffering from health and or spiritual related issues and all your efforts to getting things pedal well in your life seems to be like waiting for a day when a camel 🐫 will pass through eye of a 🪡 needle?

I have finished school for so so years no job or no better job.. I'm so so years but uptil now, I'm not married.. I have been married for so so period of time but uptil now, i can not say this is a child of my own... etc etc etc.

My People!

In every delay or denial, there are alot of hidden blessings in it. Yes. Look at the life of prophet Zakariyyah (as), how old was he before he was granted the first child (prophet Yahya - a.s)? And don't you see the type of children Allah (swt) granted Zakariyyah (as)? The children were all prophet of Allah.

Muslim Faithful!

Every disappointment is a blessing in disguise. Yes. We should be able to look for the blessing in any disappointment. We need to embrace it with courage and see the good thing that can come out of it. Don’t ever be discouraged when you are faced with difficulty or obstacle.

The reality today is,

Often when we are not granted what we ask for, we stop praying for it.. Yes. And the Prophet (PBUH) said: *“The Du'a of every one of you is granted if he does not grow impatient and says: I supplicated but it was not granted.”* 📚(Muslim)

*This remind me of a story of Prophet Ayyub:*

Ayyub was a Prophet who was immensely blessed by Allah— he was strong and healthy, had large plots of land, abundant livestock, and a righteous and beautiful family; he was also a community leader who was highly respected and loved by his people. Despite his status and wealth, Ayyub was never arrogant; he was always humble, he readily helped the deprived, and constantly thanked and glorified Allah for everything he was blessed with.

One day, high up in the heavens, the angels began discussing about the best of humans who lived on earth. An angel amongst them said,

“The best creature on earth today is Ayyub, a man of noble character who displays great patience and always remembers his Generous Lord. He is an excellent model for the worshippers of Allah..."

Satan, who was in the vicinity, overhead the discussion and became very angry. He immediately began plotting to lure Ayyub away from the worship of Allah. He whispered evil thoughts to Ayyub about the many pleasures of life that a man such as Ayyub could easily enjoy; but the Prophet was a sincere servant of Allah and was not easily faltered—this enraged Satan further.

Satan approached Allah and informed Him that Ayyub was not a sincere servant of His and was only glorifying Him in fear of losing all his wealth. He, Satan, suggested, “If You remove his wealth then You will find that his tongue will no longer mention Your name and his praying will stop.” Allah, the All-Knowing, did not believe Satan, for He knew that Ayyub was among His most sincere believers and did not worship his Lord for mere material possessions. But He agreed to test Ayyub to show Satan the absolute sincerity of His loyal servant. Overjoyed, Satan set out to destroy Prophet Ayyub’s wealth.

As time passed, Prophet Ayyub’s wealth began to diminish—his land, livestock, servants, and money slowly evaded him until he was left with nothing.

Immensely satisfied with Ayyub’s ordeal, Satan, disguised as a wise old man, approached the Prophet and said, “All your wealth is lost, some people say that it is because you gave too much charity and....
