๐ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐️ Some words of encouragement to each Muslim husband,
Whether he works abroad to obtain halal income
Or the kind of profession he has prevents him from
Properly relaxing or seeing his fam often,
And whether he has one child, none or many children:
~•~
Deeds you do for Allah aren't wasted. Keep striving.
For each nap you sacrifice, moments when you're working,
And for each tear that drops when loved ones aren't watching,
With Allah's Will you earn rewards. Strive and stay patient.
Allah loves those who try to pass His tests with patience.
~•~
While Sabr isn't simple, not sweet for everyone,
And by those weak in faith it's not readily welcome,
Steadfastness and facing Allah's Plans with contentment
Can bring pleasant outcomes as one's Imaan gets strengthened.
Efforts to please Allah lead to joy everlasting.
~•~
Recall that life's a test. View marriage as a blessing.
Remind yourself there's no human without a problem.
Imagine the route to Jannah as a high mountain
Whose peak can't be reached if you lack strength and resilience.
Climbing becomes tiring if you can't maintain patience.
~•~
Thank Allah that He blessed you with an occupation,
With guidance to the truth Islam and comprehension
Of how the problems in this world aren't permanent.
Allah's Prophets also ('alaihim as-salaam) had their own predicaments.
Earth is for testing. In Jannah is true enjoyment.

Did you get any blessing?' He will say: 'No, by Allah, my Lord!' Then the most miserable people in the world among the people of Paradise will come on the Day of Resurrection to be dipped in Paradise, then it will be said: 'O son of Adam, did you see any hardship? Did you have any distress?' He will say: 'No, by Allah, my Lord! I did not once see hardship or distress.'"

๐ Abdullah Ibn Umar RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated: Allah's noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Every one of you is a shepherd and is responsible for his flock. The leader of the people is a guardian and is responsible for his subjects. A man is the guardian of his family and he is responsible for them. A woman is the guardian of her husband's home and his children, and she is responsible for them. The servant of a man is a guardian of the property of his master and he is responsible for it. No doubt, every one of you is a shepherd and is responsible for his flock."
