What drives you?

Saif-ul-Malook Lake
Spectacular scenery from Saif-ul-Malook lake found in this flickr photo collection.

Subhan Allah. Such splendour makes you think eh. I chose a similar photo - lush mountains beyond a scenic meadow - as the print background for the following quote. You might have a mountain of an issue to overcome but with the right intention, proper preparation, focused effort, and most importantly, sincere supplications, you’d find Allah’s Help there with you on your uphill task…

 

“The degree to which a person is helped and aided by Allah depends on the degree of his intention, drive, aim and hopes. Help from Allah comes to people in proportion to their drive, intention, hopes and fears, and failure comes to them in like manner.”
Ibn al-Qayyim
