ACCEPTING FATE

� Avoid saying the word, 'IF.'
� Instead, say whatever has happened was the Will of Allah Ta'ala and accept it and surrender yourself to Him.
� Allah Ta'ala is Al-Hakeem (The Wise), whatever Allah Ta'ala decrees is better for us.
� Many hardships befall on Allah's beloved like the Prophets (Peace and blessings be upon them all).
� Because Allah Ta'ala loves His Creations.
� Hardships can be a blessing or a form of punishment.
� We cannot say for sure if it is a blessing or punishment but leave it to Allah.
� Sometimes small problems are a means to remove a big problem e.g. accident, sickness or something stolen.
� A Human must accept his fate, because not accepting it will not change anything, nor remove it. It will just increase difficulties and sadness.
� The best cure is to have the quality of 'Sabr' (Patience), as Allah Ta'ala rewards a person who is patient without a measure.
� And try to solve the problem by seeking help from Allah Ta'ala.
� Be satisfied with what you have, don't want more in this World.
� Instead, Want more for the Hereafter!
� Remember, Allah Ta'ala Loves Us like, mothers love their child.
� There is no place and return but to Allah Ta'ala alone.
� Avoid Haram and Do Halal.
� Fear Allah Ta'ala.
� Have Trust in Allah Ta'ala.
� Be Patient.
� Always seek Forgiveness.
� Make DU'A!

I hope the brother that started this post is doing well and things have worked out for him. Same with the youngster in the last post.

Reason why I'm posting on here is because on YouTube recently before I play a video some of the adverts I have seen prior to the video starting are from 'BOTB.' It appears to be a website where you pay to play certain games, purchase ticket to win cars/cash. Okay these sort of competitions have been going around for many years but with this particular company a lot of the winners have been Muslim. You only need to go on their website to see how many Muslims have won.
