Finding Him In Day To-Day Life
A few days ago I was very disturbed. I was trying to find the reason behind the dilemma I was in - like always. Not questioning His plan or Power; just curious about the Wisdom of it.
Last night when going to bed I recited the last ayahs of surah baqarah and there was my answer. And I was immediately calmed by the thought that He doesn't burden a soul beyond their capacity so no matter what is the Wisdom or Reason behind the situation He Knows I can handle it. And that was the last thought I had before I fell asleep.
Allah tala is truly truly Wise. and He shows it to us every now and then. How Wisely He takes His slave a step further towards Himself. Makes us trust Him by reassuring us through His Words (Quran) that He Knows and He listens and cares and plans best.
If we ponder upon this ayah, "He doesn't burden a soul beyond its capacity" we get a picture of a strong character. The slave knows that he is capable of handling this situation since allah says it. So he stays patient and keeps calling upon Allah, greatfully, lovingly knowing His plan is perfect.
Then Allah says, "with every hardship, comes ease" and He says it twice to etch it in our hearts that there must be some ease. and sure enough we find solace, ease when we change our way of thinking. We change our perspective on our life. We begin to appreciate what we have and strive for abundance. This way Allah makes us grateful for the things we have in our lives meanwhile steering our thoughts away from our worries and negativity. Our hearts find peace just as He promised, "Verily In Our Remembrance do hearts find ease".
