There needs to be a balance, a balance for everything, a balance to how much you care and love those people close to you, sometimes we begin to neglect our own selves in worrying about other people, thats not to say we shouldnt care for those in need and support them, but dont let this take over your life, dont let it stress you out, I guess we need to constantly remind ourselves that everything we do should be for the sake of Allah even loving your fellow Muslims, your parents your children all of this should be for the sake of Allah alone, sometimes those with big hearts just dont know when to stop, other peoples problems really have an affect on them, but does this mean we should walk away from those being tested? NO rather realise that we have been made aware of their condition for a reason, which most importantly is to be grateful to Allah swt for all the blessings He is bestowed upon us whilst others are being tested in their health, wealth, through their families and loved ones Allah swt continues to bless us and opens doors for us to do good by giving us the opportunity to help these people, but whatever you do dont neglect yourself in doing so always be on the guard, remember the pleasure of Allah is the first and foremost and this should be the reason we love, we hate, we give and with hold..because if this is the reason then when people let us down we remember that our reward lies with Allah alone. Remember everything is in the hands of Allah, we can do our bit but help comes from Allah and Allah alone. Whatever He swt has decreed will be, and whether it be good or bad both are a blessing for a believer if he remains grateful with the good and patient through the bad. May Allah swt ease the affairs of all the Muslims and make our hearts strong in faith Ameen.
