If the people try to humiliate you, then know that it is not them that honor or humiliate. If the people mock you and you are asking them to assist you then know that they do not possess the power to benefit or harm even themselves and they do not possess the power to give, take or restore life. If the hardships and troubles overwhelm you from your family and loved ones, if the harm and insults from the people become too great then know that you have a Lord that will not let you down and you have a Lord that receives all complaints. You have a Lord that shows mercy and loves you, and loves when you call him and when you turn to him and supplicate. “Who listens to the (soul) distressed when it calls on Him, and Who relieves its suffering, and makes you (mankind) inheritors of the earth? Is there a Lord beside Allah?!” 27:62

O you who are patient, bear a little more, just a little more remains.

— Ibn Al Jawziyyah

Indeed if Allah SWT decrees your relief, it will come from where you do not expect. When the world constrains someone, in particular if people let you down, and if the loved ones and close ones desert you, if you depended on someone, and they let you down and if you put your hope in someone after Allah, and they don’t come through. It’s at that point, you know that Allah wants you to turn to Him. The happiest person in the world is he who turns his face to Allah and the one who submits his heart to Allah. Be certain that relief will come insha’Allah :) [Sheikh Muhammad Mukhtar Shinqitee]

Keep praying for what it is you seek. Impossibility and possibility are merely concepts of your mind, to Allah nothing is impossible

Surely silence can sometimes be the most eloquent reply

— Ali Ibn Abi Thalib (RA)

“If a person is sincere towards Allah in all his affairs, Allah will give him more than He gives to others, and this sincerity results from true love of Allah and true trust in Him. So the most sincere of people is the one who loves Allah most and puts the most trust in Him.” ♥ ~Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim (rahimahullah)

How amazing is the affair of the believer, for all of it is good, and that applies to no one except the believer. If something good happens to him he gives thanks, and that is good for him; and if something bad befalls him he is patient, and that is good for him.

Muslim

Allah has blessed man in countless ways that cannot compare to the limited problems he faces.

“

We are constantly told how we are not good enough but what matters is how we are in the sight of Allah SWT. People will constantly say negative comments about your physical body but remember that Allah SWT created you and He chose for you to look a certain way. What matters is how we look in the sight of the most Merciful, and not in the eyes of the imperfect humans beings that you and I are. -Gurabah

Even the skies have darkened moments enabling elements of its hidden beauty to glow. Even the skies break down and pour much water, softening it’s surrounding with peace and mercy. Even the skies await His eminent Nour, so an array of colourful blessings can reflect off each droplet…

…worry not, for indeed Allaah is near. There will be moments where He will cloud you over, but light will follow soon =)
