TO LIVE A HAPPY LIFE YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THE 3-P OF LIFE

Certain things need to be understood before one can live a happy life. Brooding over all that it brings, one is exhibiting a kind of sickness that destroys one’s resolve to live a happy life. There are Ps that guide our existence of which if take into consideration one needs not to live in the nightmare of life.
PATIENCE: In life, one has to exercise patience with God Almighty Allah on whatever happens, be it good or bad. The architect who designs our life is Him and He knows what is best for us. UPS and DOWNS together define LIFE and to Him He’s testing degree of our tolerance. Without sadness how one would realize what happiness is? Without weakness how will one define strength? Without hunger how will one value food. Just like the other things if there are no failures how will you know and value success.
This is what many don’t understand about life and why many Muslims distance themselves from Allah’s message to make Islam well established in order to cater for their life which they have no power about.
PERSISTENCE: Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. As long as we are persistence in our pursuit of our deepest destiny, we will continue to grow. We cannot choose the day or time when we will fully bloom. It happens in His own time and when our desires are not met as we expected we must not say, “what kind of Almighty Allah is this?” because He is not God of immediacy and He might even delay it till afterlife. We must understand that in life persistence is the habit of victory and vehicle to attain success.
Perseverance: in life, we have to be Steadfast no matter what condition we found ourselves. Life is not easy for any of us. But we must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing must be attained.
Almighty Allah will try us, test us and tribulate us, take us through 3-T in life but if we can be patience, persistence and perseverance, embrace the 3-P, we will surely attain our goal.

WHAT TYPE OF MUSLIMS ARE WE?

There is nothing change with Islam; its pasts are not different from its present and its future will not deviate from what has been prescribed for it. But things that do change are the nature of those practicing it, Muslims and their attitudes towards the Deen.
We should ask ourselves, what type of Muslims were those who created an empire that extended from North Africa to South Asia if they could be compared with the present Muslims?
