 *A Message 4 You*

[[---- Part 9 ----]]
------------------

بسم الله الرحمان الرجيم

The people in the Qur’an are not like characters in a storybook. They are not for entertainment. They are your teachers.

Look at Nana Maryam (A.S). She was in a situation that looked impossible. People would talk. They would not understand. She had no human answer to give them.

What did she do?

She did not panic or cry. She did not scream. She trusted Allah (swt). Completely.

She knew Allah (swt) brought her into this problem, so Allah would bring her out.

And Allah actually did.

Allah (swt) did what only Allah can do. Yes. He made the baby - Prophet Isah, speak! He said, “I am the servant of Allah.” 📚[Qur’an chapter 19 verse 29-30]

Prophet Isah (A.S), speak from the cradle! Allah did not just solve Nana Maryam's problem. He defended her purity in front of her people that day, and then He defended her forever by putting the story in the Qur’an.

This is a powerful lesson for you and me, right now.

Your struggle today?

Those challenges that seems to have no way out?

That pain you have carried for too long?

That dua you think is not being answered?

Allah (swt) sees it. He hears it. He is not ignoring you.

He is testing you. Why? To make you stronger. To make your faith solid like a mountain.

He wants to give you three great rewards:

(1) The reward for calling Him.

(2) The reward for being patient.

(3) The reward for waiting with trust.

Nana Maryam’s wait ended. Yours will end too.

Let lives of the early believers guide you, especially:

When you are scared or troubled, remember Nana Maryam’s trust.

When people talk about you, remember how Allah defended Nana Maryam.

When you feel helpless, remember how Allah made a baby speak to solve a huge problem.

My People,

Do not just read about Nana Maryam (A.S) and say “Masha’Allah, what a story.”

Live like her.

Trust like her.

Be patient like her.

Carry your trust in Allah like a light in the dark. Your situation is not impossible. And if you follow the guide—relying on Allah, being patient—your story will become a guide of hope for someone else in the future - In Shaa Allah.
