TEN THOUGHTS TO PONDER

1) Remember that your Lord forgives those who ask Him for forgiveness and He accepts the repentance of those who repent and He accepts those who come back to Him.

2) Show mercy to the weak and you'll be happy, give ...to the needy and you'll be well, do not bear grudges and you will be healthy.

3) Be optimistic, for Allah is with you. He is listening to you and the Paradise awaits you (In sha Allah)

4) Wipe away your tears, think well of your Lord and chase away your worries by remembering the blessings that Allah has bestowed upon you.

5) Do not think that this world is ever perfect for anyone. There is no one on the face of the earth who gets all that he wants or is free from all kinds of distress.

6) Be like a tall tree with high aims, if a stone is thrown at it, it simply lets its fruit drop.

7) Have you ever heard that grief brings back what has been lost, or that worry corrects mistake? So why grieve and worry then?

8) Do not expect trials and calamities, rather expect peace, safety and good health (In sha Allah).

9) Extinguish the flames of hatred from your heart by forgiving everyone who has ever hurt you.

10) Ghusl, wudhu and siwak and being calm and organised are effective medicines for all kinds of distress and worry.
