On the 27th of Ramadan, you're thinking about how you haven't
done enough this Ramadan. Ramadan is finishing, and you didn't read
as much quota, and you didn't do as many prayers as you wanted. You
wasted your Ramadan, and Allah must be so upset with you, and
you're not even trying to make dua as much as you could be, because
you're like, I don't deserve to. I want you to know that you have
more hope in yourself than you have in Allah, and that's not a
lot of hope, considering how much you're struggling with your
internal thoughts. Ibn Al Taylor teaches that when you say things
like, Okay, I didn't read as much Quran as I did last year,
Therefore Allah must not want me to pray to Him. Allah must not
want to answer my prayers. I don't deserve to turn back to Allah. I
don't deserve to ask and ask and ask because you care about
yourself. You're focusing on yourself. You don't you don't
think you're getting up, you don't believe that your deeds are
enough. And he teaches that you you have more hope in your own
deeds than you have in Allah's mercy. Allah's Mercy is greater
than your mistakes. Don't have hope in your own deeds. Have hope
in Allah's mercy.
