Welcome to The Safe Inner Place

"From the Mercy of Allah Ta'ala with His worshippers is that He troubles them with the Duniya and its worry and annoyance, so that they do not become calm, pleased with it and do not become tranquil with the Duniya. Therefore they desire the eternal bliss in His land of Paradise and next to Him. Allah leads them to it with the whip of trials and tests. He prevents them from the Duniya so He can give it in the Hereafter, He trials them so that he can give them relief, He causes them to die to resurrect them."

"When a believer invokes Allah but his supplication(dua) is not answered, even though he may repeat it for a long time. In such case, he should understand that this is a test that requires him to be patient. The wisdom of Allah is proven by unquestionable proofs, hence you may assume the benefit in a matter while, in fact, the wisdom of Allah states otherwise. There might be benefit to you when the answer of your supplication is delayed and may cause you harm should the prayer have been immediately answered. The Prophet ﷺ said, "The slave (of Allah) will be fine so long he is not hasty and says "I supplicated but my prayers were not answered""

"Let he who suffers a calamity or a hardship and wishes to overcome its impact, think of worse calamities and hardships than his as that will make him belittle his hardship. Let him envision the received reward for enduring it patiently, and imagine a greater trial has befallen him [to belittle his current trial] and he shall see such hardships as a roaring trade. Let him also anticipate that his calamity will be removed in the near future, because if the hardship was not severe, the hours of ease would not have been hoped for. Let him also know that the example of a calamity is like a guest; it does not stay for a long time and so having it over should make the host always check on it to fulfil its rights because it will not last long until it leaves! And receiving its praise for how he handled it is indeed gratifying and it is enough to be described as the generous host. That being said, the believer during times of difficulties should pay attention to his time and continually check on the condition of his self."
