TAWAKAL

I've had the kind of bad day that no quote can fix. My whole life I've been trying to make the complicated simple. It's creativity if I made it awesomely simple because making the simple complicated is commonplace. Arguing things that we don't really need to be argued is stressing. Prophet Muhammad SAW said, 'I will guarantee a house at the base of heaven for those who leave the debate even though he is on the right side.'

Allah has a plan and I'm exactly where He wants me right now. Allah never fails to help. Hasbunallah wa ni'mal wakil, ni'mal maula wa ni'man nashir.
