Everybody
from us has hardships in life.
But in recently, I have so much pain
and stress and difficulties
that
nearly every door I want to go, it
get closed or it get canceled or or
it get, I'm late or delayed.
And I try to remind myself, like, what
would, a prophet do in this time.
And,
I know they had sabr, and I know
they had iman, but when I want to
do this, translate my this in into actions,
I don't know how. Like, I don't know
how to really have a man in Allah
that,
no matter how hard it gets, I stay
strong. I don't get weak and know who
Allah really is in my heart.
What doors are closing? Can you tell me?
Maybe school,
marriage,
Sometimes,
little things I want to do with my
family member sometimes. Some,
for example, go out Look. And it gets
canceled. I don't know why. And Because
life is about a lot of difficulties and
failures. Yes.
But every time a door opens,
your it's not you don't wait for another
door to open.
You push another door open. Yes.
You have to look for it yourself.
Okay.
Look.
But what should I understand?
The message from Allah, what is it from?
To become more resilient.
You have to become more resourceful.
And how to be more creative. And how
can I become more resilient?
I tried to read Quran, I write down
If you're if one thing doesn't work out
and you're like, why did this not happen?
You know, like, you know how birds sometimes
they crash into the window over and over,
I guess?
If the birds had a little bit more
brain, they would find another way. Yes. That's
what I mean by resilience. It's not just
that you have to just take a situation
and be patient.
If one door isn't opening, look for another
door. When that closes, look for another one.
Then that one is look for another one,
but keep looking.
And how can I get to know Like,
Allah? Let me give you an example. If
you couldn't find a job
and you applied to another one and they
said no, then you applied to another one,
do you stop or you keep going? I
I keep going. You keep going? Yes.
And then you get you got a job
you don't like.
You still take it. Yes. Until something else
opens up that you do like. Right?
So life doesn't happen on my terms. Yes.
I have to
keep navigating.
As a new wave comes, I gotta go
around it. And how can I get to
know Allah more deeply
so my iman gets strong in this situation?
My answer might be different from other people.
To me, it is it is an engagement
with the Quran that connects you with Omar.
Just reading. Like you said, just reading
For for the beginning. Yeah. Reciting,
contemplating,
learning.
And is there any Islamic college
you can,
recommend to visit to to learn the real
Quran and Sunnah with people? You know they
are have taqwa of Allah. I like International

welcome. Thank you for coming.
