Indeed this life is nothing but confusion. Let us condition our minds to focus on Allah with serious resolve. Most oftenly we deceive ourselves, or even scare ourselves because of losing something we think we may not do without, which causes us to abandon things that get us closer to Allah. This will lead to Allah abandoning us to our "wisdom". There is no remedy to such a situation until we make amends. Indeed we must fear Allah and stop deceiving ourselves.
Among the greatest blessings of life are; Islam, good health and contentment.
Always remember that it is better for a person to deny his animal desires in order to get closer to Allah than approach his grave while indulging in unlawful acts.
So wherever we find ourselves, we must be mindful of Allah in open and secret, if we wish to be successful in this life and Hereafter.
Also remember that Allah only helps a servant that obeys Him. But if a servant indulges in unlawful acts, no matter the success he achieves, it will later turn to a big loss.
This is a reminder to myself and my entire brothers and sisters. May Allah grant us the ability to abide by it. Amin.
