“Whoever is content with God’s decree, Allah will please him with the beauty of His destiny.”
“When all means fail, there is still the Lord of all means.”
“True sustenance is what benefits you, not just what you earn.”
“Do not worry about people’s schemes, for the most they can do is carry out what Allah has already willed.”
“If one with a father does not worry, how can one with a Lord ever worry?”
“Believers are the ones tested by Allah, for trials are in fact a blessing.”
“What you spend years building may collapse overnight; build anyway.”
