Worldly difficulties are an inevitable part of life; they range from minor issues to fatal diseases and loss of loved ones.
This booklet aims to help one see all difficulties in perspective, encourages complete trust in Allāh ﷻ's decisions and perseverance. By defining the mandatory belief of taqdeer (predestination) that,
“Whatever happened to you, could not have missed you,”
This treatise reminds the reader that worldly difficulties are a trial for the believers, along with affirming that many-a-time afflictions result from one’s sins and disobedience to Allāh ﷻ.
The booklet also illustrates how appropriate behaviour and a correct attitude can change an adversity into a worthwhile opportunity to achieve Allāh ﷻ's Pleasure through sabr and duaa, and how impatience, panic and complaining will only worsen one’s situation.
Finally, emphasis is made on calling upon Allāh Alone to ease one’s affairs.
Ibn Rajab رحمه الله said:
“Beware of sins, as it forbids forgiveness in the seasons of mercy.”
(لطائف المعارف ص.٢٩٥)

6. Companionship with the righteous.
7. Humility.
8. Generosity.
9. Compassion for the creation of Allāh.
10. Being a means of benefit to the creation.
11. Frequently remembering death.
[Tanbīh al-Ghāfilīn]
The world is not perfect, has never been and will never be, because it was not designed to be. The same goes for everything in the world too. So we are not perfect, nor are our spouses, children, parents, jobs or possessions either. Just do your best and be thankful.
- Mufti Abdur Rahman Mangera
اللهم أجعل القرآن ربيع قلبي و نور صدري و جلاء حزني و ذهاب همي
O Allāh ﷻ, make the Qur’ān the spring of my heart, the light of my chest, the clearance of my sadness and my distress
قال ابن مسعود - رضي الله عنه -:
Ibn Mas’ūd رضي الله عنه said:
" من كان يحب أن يعلم أنه يحب الله فليعرض نفسه على القرأن، فإن أحب القرآن فهو يحب الله فإنما القرآن كلام الله ".
“Whoever wants to know that he loves Allāh, then let him present himself to the Qur’ān. If he loves the Qur’ān then he loves Allāh, for truly the Qur’ān is the Speech of Allāh.”
[السنة لعبد الله بن أحمد]
Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله stated:
"Know that everyone who loves something for other than Allāh it's a must that his beloved one harms him and that will be a cause for his punishment."
[Majmū' Al-Fatāwā 1/28]
Mālik Ibn Dīnār رحمه الله said:
"Sabr (Patience) is silence. And silence is from Sabr. And the one who speaks is not more pious than the silent, except the knowledgeable man who speaks in his position."
[Hilyah tul-Awliyā]
Tawakkul is the light of our hearts. Placing our trust and relying on Allah ﷻ can help us overcome any adversity.
Yahyā Ibn Abī Kathīr رحمه الله said:
"Knowledge can not be gained with comfort of the body."
[Siyar 'A'alām an-Nublā - Imām al-Dhahabī رحمه الله]
Imam Malik رحمه الله said:
"Whoever wants his heart to open up with happiness, then let his deeds in private be better than in public."
[ترتيب المدار ك ٢/٦٠]
