*A Message 4 You*
[[---- Part 5 ----]]------------------
بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم
When you hear about Prophet Zakariyyah or Prophet Musa (A.S), don't just listen. Look at your own life. Yes. Their stories are not old tales. They are Allah's way of teaching you how to live today.
Here is how.
Sometimes, things don't go your way. You feel sad. This is where your test begins.
Look at Prophet Zakariyyah (A.S). He wanted a child. He prayed for a child for so, so long. But did he stopped making Du'a? No! He never gave up on Allah. And when Allah finally said "yes," Allah (swt) did not give him just anyhow child. HE gave him - Yahya (A.S) —a noble Prophet for that matter. The long, painful "delay" was actually Allah preparing a perfect "long-lasting joy."
To prove this,
Allah (swt) Himself said about Zakariyyah's son in the Quran: *"And affection from Us and purity, and he was fearing of Allah."* 📚(Maryam 19:13)... After all that waiting, Allah (swt) gave Prophet Zakariyyah a son who was a blessing to the whole world.
Therefore,
Your disappointment right now is a blessing in disguise. Yes. Allah (swt) is moving you away from something bad, and or preparing something better for you. So, don't just feel sad. Get smart. Look for the lesson quickly. Ask yourself: *"What is Allah teaching me here?"*
Can we still talk about your du'a?
You ask and ask, but you see nothing. Did you feel like giving up?.
Remember Prophet Musa (A.S). He asked Allah to free his people from the evil Pharaoh. Do you know how long it took? Over 40 years. That is longer than many people's whole lives! For 40 years, he kept trusting, leading, and making du'a.
Did Prophet Musa say, "I prayed and prayed, but nothing!"? No!. He knew Allah hears. The victory came at the perfect time.
So,
When you feel your du'a is stuck, remember this. Your words to Allah are never lost. They are being stored. The answer is coming. Maybe not tomorrow. Maybe in years to come. But it is coming. Keep talking to Allah. No matter what.
Now,
What can you Hold to Console yourself?
(1) When a door closes, remember Prophet Zakariyyah. A better door will open.
(2) When you are tired of making Du'a, remember Prophet Musa. Your du'a is your power.
(3) When it comes to Du'a making, don't say, "I lose something, I win something." Say, "I learn something, and I win something." Yes, because, every problem teaches you something beneficial.
In fact,
Early Muslims felt the same sadness and worry you feel. Your life today is connected to theirs. The same Allah who listened to Prophet Zakariyyah and Prophet Musa is listening to YOU. Their lives are not just stories. They are your guidebook. Follow their example.
Your best life is being written with every single Du'a you make, because, your Du'a is the only thing that has all the POWERS to change your destiny. 📚 Authentic hadith
The best part of your story is not behind you. It is ahead of you. I said "Ameen" to this 🙏.
