“ The Believing Woman is Alert
One of the most prominent distinguishing features of the Muslim woman is her deep faith in Allah (SWT), and her sincere conviction that whatever happens in this universe, and whatever fate befalls human beings, only happens through the will and decree of Allah (SWT); whatever befalls a person could not have been avoided, and whatever does not happen to a person could not have been made to happen. A person has no choice in this life but to strive towards the right path and to do good deeds - acts of worship and other acts - by whatever means one can, putting all his trust in Allah (SWT), submitting to His will, and believing that he is always in need of Allah's (SWT) help and support.”

After I read these statements, I felt terrible about how I had been acting.
Why didn’t I have full trust and conviction in Allaah ? I studied hard for the test and the rest is up to Allaah. Why was I getting so distressed about something of this dunya ? Did I ever act this way regarding my prayers ? Did I ever act this way for the fact that I didn’t wear the complete hijab ? Did I ever act this way because I didn’t honor my parents enough ? Did I ever get this distressed because I don’t have enough knowledge of Islam?
The articles shed me into tears :'(
