"Some find Allāh ﷻ in happiness, some find Allāh ﷻ in sadness, but find Allāh ﷻ wherever you can be, because the one who doesn't find Allāh ﷻ, lives in emptiness".

You'd never be able to figure out how 'that' could happen If you saw a glimpse of your future.
Every event in your life is under Allāh ﷻ's control.
Nobody can prevent a person from achieving success and leadership if Allāh ﷻ has written it in their destiny.

The moment we start to accept the hardships that we are going through is the moment that we start to take that first step forward.

“And recite the Qur'ān during Fajr.
Verily, the recitation of the Qur'ān during Fajr is ever witnessed."
He said: "It is witnessed by the angels of the night and the day."

The greatest blessing that a student of ʿilm can have is:
- An extremely strict teacher in Qirāʿah
(Who will not let one small error pass by)
- An extremely tolerant teacher in Fiqh
(Who will patiently discuss every ruling with you)

Salih al-Dimashqi رحمه الله said to his son:
{ O my son, If a day passes in which your religion, body, wealth, and family are all safe ... then increase in your thanks to Allāh.
For how many people in that same day will have lost their religion, been afflicted...
with disease, become bankrupt and lost their family members, whilst you enjoy Allāh’s safety. }
[Sīyar a’lam al-Nubala]

Most Scholars of the early generations were poor; needless it is to say, then, that they did not have beautiful houses or nice cars. Yet, despite this, they led fruitful lives, and they benefited mankind, not by some miracle, but because they used all that they were given, and spent their time in the correct way. Hence they were blessed in their lives, their time, and their talents.
On the contrary, there are many people who have been bestowed with wealth, children, and all forms of blessings, yet these blessings have been the very reason for their misery and ruin. They deviated from what their inborn instincts were telling them, namely, that material things are not everything.
If you’re a seeker of happiness, be satisfied with what Allāh has favoured you with. Certain educators go further than this by saying that you should imagine being contented with even less than you actually have now.

Your value is in your abilities, good deeds, manners, and contributions to society. Do not feel grief over that which has passed you by in life but be content with what Allāh has given you.
Remind yourself of Paradise, which is as wide as the Heavens and the Earth.
lf you’re hungry in this world, if you are sad, ill or oppressed, remember the eternal bliss of Paradise. lf you do, then your losses are really profits and the hardships you face are really gifts.
The most wise of people are those who work for the Hereafter, because it is better and everlasting. The most foolish of mankind are those who see this world as their eternal abode – in it reside all of their hopes. You will find such people to be the most grief-stricken of all when faced with calamity. They will be the most affected by worldly loss simply because they see nothing beyond the insignificant lives that they lead.
The happiness of Paradise will be absolute. So why do we not contemplate this fact? Paradise is our destination – and we ask Allāh سبحانه و تعالى for the highest of Paradise.
سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ بِمَا صَبَرْتُمْ فَنِعْمَ عُقْبَى الدَّارِ
“Peace be upon you for what you patiently endured. And excellent is the final home.”
[Qur’ān, Sūrah Ra’d (13), verse 24]
