The very things that had once troubled you so much, are now growing within you as a calmness, a knowledge. You have lost nothing by losing everything, and this is your hard-earned discovery.

At every turn of your life, if you hold out, persevere and have faith, you find that the Quran’s promise of “ease after hardship” is indeed true.

“For truly, with hardship comes ease Indeed, with hardship comes ease so, when you are free, strive in devotion turning to your Lord [alone] with hope”

— Surah Inshirah (The Consolation), Quran 94:5-8

Dear brother and sisters, a time is going to come when you will see things that will cause your faith to shake. People shall experience inner earthquakes, great calamities and tribulations. A time filled with hardship, fear and struggle. No matter how difficult things become and what people say and do - never let people take your smile away from you. Never let anyone snatch away your belief, your morals, your hope and your religion from you. If you trip and fall, get straight back up and continue. Don't drop your head and feel ashamed or scared. Raise yourself and be proud of who you are. When mankind is flooded with hate and discrimination - don't drown. Carry on swimming. Don't look back and don't despair. You can do it. You can survive. Safety is with the ship of the Ahl al-Bayt. Guidance is with the Companions who are like stars in the dark night. The place of safety is with the Sunnah of Rasūlallāh ﷺ.

Allāh is your Lord and the Lord of everything in this universe. He took charge of your sustenance, your health, your lifespan, every breath that you inhale, every drop you shall drink, and every morsel you will consume before you ever came into this world. How then can the believer ever be in loss regardless of any situation he goes through? Who can oppose the one who Allāh protects? Who can debase the one Allāh raises? Who can extinguish a light which Allāh illuminates? The rulers and policies of the people of the earth change but Allāh's dominance, power and promises for you will forever remain. He looked after you yesterday. And He will continue to look after you forever to come.
