The most honorable work in the world is that done sincerely for Allah:

If you make the claim that you are serving for the sake of Allah, expect Allah to constantly test you in that claim.

Expect ingratitude from the people you hope to benefit.

Expect people constantly questioning your intentions and work.

Expect that keyboard warriors will wage war on you.

Expect feeling lonely amongst your peers.

That’s all part of the package.

This doesn’t justify the bad behavior of others, but makes you independent of their behavior as a whole.

The most honorable work in the world is that done sincerely for Allah, but that honor should be sought only from Him.

This life, along with all of it’s hardships caused by the people you will encounter in it, is temporary.

The next life, along with all of it’s reward for the righteous and the praise of the Most High, is eternal.

The Prayer That Shook My Soul: Finding Gratitude in the Ruins:

- I went to a masjid today that wasn't marked by towering minarets or grand domes. It was a humble prayer space tucked away inside the quiet confines of an old-age home campus. Places like these carry a specific kind of atmosphere. The air feels heavier, often thick with unspoken memories, quiet resignation, and the lingering echo of lives that once roared with activity but have now slowed to a whisper. I went there simply to offer my obligatory prayers. I left carrying a lesson that will stay engraved on my heart forever. As I stood in the rows, preparing myself, I found myself next to an elderly man. He was frail, his posture bent by the weight of time. He was an "inmate" here—a clinical word that felt too harsh for the gentle, weathered face I glimpsed. Later, I would learn the fragments of his story. He was a survivor of the brutal COVID era, a period that had swept through his life like a wildfire, taking almost his entire family with it. He was left behind in the a...
