I can't stress how important it is to always be grateful to Allāh سبحانه وتعالى for everything. Being grateful for the good and even more for the bad, for your Lord knows of that which you and I have no knowledge of.

Know that everything happens for a reason.

A reason which becomes clear for us once we pass on and see what it has been replaced with.

If you don’t spend your time with that which is beneficial, you will inevitably waste it on what is sinful

Shaykh-ul-Islām Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله stated:

"Whoever does not use his soul in the worship of Allāh, he will use it without his choice in the disobedience of Allāh. Therefore, the soul must have an occupation."

Jāmiʾ Al-Masāil (8/228)

Failures, regrets, mistakes are all part of life. Do yourself a favour and don’t dwell on them. Learn the lessons they’re meant to teach you and move on. Life’s too short to be crying over what didn’t work out. The Almighty’s giving you another opportunity.

Don’t waste it.

Our paths don’t cross with anyone by accident. Everyone comes with a purpose in our lives. Some are meant to stay, while others simply come to teach us lessons.

Regardless, all praises due to Allāh ﷻ who manages our affairs with knowledge of what’s best for us.

Shaykh Ṣālih Al-'Uthaymīn رحمه الله stated:

"The one who truly fears (Allāh) is the one who increases in humility to the truth and the creation every time the blessings of Allāh increase upon him."

[القول المفيد « ص ٣٨٥»]

Stop being fooled by the illusion of wealth.

Big houses, expensive cars, designers, and a fancy lifestyle is not wealth. It is debt.

Wealth is time, freedom, options, and health.
