Considering the fact that we live in a society that keeps on shifting the bar for what success should look like, more than ever it’s necessary to redefine how that actually looks like for you before you keep on chasing a mirage. On a daily basis when we hear the adhan, Allah gives us a guide to what success looks like:
Al-Baqarah 2:45
وَٱسۡتَعِينُواْ بِٱلصَّبۡرِ وَٱلصَّلَوٰةِۚ وَإِنَّهَا لَكَبِيرَةٌ إِلَّا عَلَى ٱلۡخَٰشِعِينَ
“And seek help through patience and prayer, and indeed, it is difficult except for the humbly submissive [to Allah ]”
This has entirely changed my perspective. Patience is truly the perfect foundation to serving Allah. Jazakillah Khairan for this wonderful read
