The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, taught us: “Seek help from Allah, the Most High, and do not lose heart, and if anything (in the form of trouble) comes to you, don’t say: If I had not done that, it would not have happened so and so, but say: Allah did that what He had ordained to do and you saying “if” opens the (gate) for the Satan.” (Muslim) ___________________________________________________________________________________________ ACCEPT and APPRECIATE FIRSTLY, keep in mind that nothing comes to pass except by the Decree of God, the Most Kind. If it happened, then it happened. Nothing could have averted it, nothing could have changed it, and that “anything other” never had a chance to begin with. It came to pass and happen it did. Accept it. SECONDLY, know that Allah loves you. More than what the mind can comprehend and what the heart can ponder upon. I mean: this is my Lord and your Lord who has promised us that He will reward us for even the prick of a thorn! Do you think that Allah will not reward you if you persevere in patience? There is no harm in remembering what you did as long as you now see it as a light to guide you away from the previous mistakes It happened because He, out of His infinite wisdom, wanted it to happen. He, the Best of Planners, wanted us to learn something from it – even if we didn’t gain something material at the end of it. So learn a lesson from what you did because Allah, the Most Kind, is teaching you something. THIRDLY, make sure that you do not repeat what caused your grief. This may seem obvious but Satan has known mankind for millions of years and he knows a billion different ways to make you follow the same plot again. So seek help in God, be patient and God will turn your grief into happiness.
