Narrated Al-Bara' bin `Azib: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "O so-and-so, whenever you go to your bed (for sleeping) say, 'O Allah! I have surrendered myself over to you and have turned my face towards You, and leave all my affairs to You and depend on You and put my trust in You expecting Your reward and fearing Your punishment. There is neither fleeing from You nor refuge but with You. I believe in the Book (Qur'an) which You have revealed and in Your Prophet (Muhammad) whom You have sent.' If you then die on that night, then you will die as a Muslim, and if you wake alive in the morning then you will receive the reward." Bukhari "‏ يَا فُلاَنُ إِذَا أَوَيْتَ إِلَى فِرَاشِكَ فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ أَسْلَمْتُ نَفْسِي إِلَيْكَ، وَوَجَّهْتُ وَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ وَفَوَّضْتُ أَمْرِي إِلَيْكَ، وَأَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي إِلَيْكَ، رَغْبَةً وَرَهْبَةً إِلَيْكَ، لاَ مَلْجَأَ وَلاَ مَنْجَا مِنْكَ إِلاَّ إِلَيْكَ، آمَنْتُ بِكِتَابِكَ الَّذِي أَنْزَلْتَ، وَبِنَبِيِّكَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلْتَ‏.‏ فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ مُتَّ فِي لَيْلَتِكَ مُتَّ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ، وَإِنْ أَصْبَحْتَ أَصَبْتَ أَجْرًا ‏"‏‏.‏

TEN SURAHS THAT SAVES YOU FROM TEN THINGS Allamah Jalaluddin Suyuti Rahmatullahi Alaihi says, Surah Fateha saves one from Allah Ta’ala’s wrath. Surah Yaseen will save one from becoming thirsty on the day of Qiyamah. Surah Dukhaan will save one from the fears of the day of Qiyamah. Surah Waaqiah saves one from hunger and poverty. Surah Mulk saves one from the punishment of the grave. Surah Kawthar saves one from the enmity of the enemies. Surah Kaafiroon saves one from turning to kufr at the time of death. Surah Ikhlaas saves one from hypocrisy. Surah Falaq saves one from jealousy of the jealous people. Surah Naas saves one from evil whisperings.

If you focus on hurt, you will continue to suffer. If you focus on the lesson, you will continue to grow. Allah is enough!

Hazrat Moulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi (rahmatullahi ‘alaih) once mentioned the following to a person who was overcome by depression and grief: What is the need for such worry and grief? When a person is overcome by depression and grief, I generally advise them to engage in a certain muraaqabah (meditation). This meditation is a cure for all types of depression, worries and anxieties. The method of this meditation is for one to always reflect and ponder over the fact that “Allah Ta‘ala loves me and wants the best for me”. In the Qur’aan Majeed, Allah Ta‘ala says that He is the true friend and guardian of the believers. Hence, Allah Ta‘ala always decides the best for His servant. If any person experiencing depression and grief engages in this muraaqabah, then he will find that all his worries and anxieties will come to an end. An example through which this muraaqabah can be understood is the love of the mother for the child. Every child believes that his mother loves him and wants what is best for him. Despite this, the mother still does certain things that outwardly seem unpleasant to the child. In some instances, she even reprimands and disciplines the child. However, even though the child gets scolded by the mother, the child feels satisfied that his mother has the utmost love for him, and that whatever she is doing is for his benefit. (Malfoozaat Hakeemul Ummat 8/352)

"Reflect over the favours of Allah Ta`ala, both material and spiritual. The more you will reflect the more you will discover Allah's love." And Allah Ta`ala knows best (Mufti) E Salejee Source

DU'AA FOR TAQWA اَللّٰهُمَّ اجْعَلْنِيْ أَخْشَاكَ كَأَنِّيْ أَرَاكَ أَبَدًا حَتّٰى أَلْقَاكَ، وَأَسْعِدْنِيْ بِتَقْوَاكَ وَ -لَاتُشْقِنِيْ بِمَعْصِيَتِكَ Allaahummaj-'alnii akhshaaka ka'annii araaka abadan hattaa alqaak(a), wa as'idnii bitaqwaaka wa laa tushqinii bima'siyatik. '(Abu Hurayrah. Majma' az-Zawaa'id #17393) O Allah, make me fear You as if I see You all the time until I meet You. Make me blissful as a result of Your taqwa (Your fear and piety); do not make me wretched as a result of Your disobedience. ~~~Ameen~~~ (Source: Khalid Baig’s transliteration and translation of du’aa #124 from the Accepted Whispers: Munajat-e-Maqbul)
