TEN THOUGHTS TO PONDER:
Passage from "The Happiest Woman in the World".

1- Remember that Allah forgives those who ask for forgiveness and accepts the repentance of those who repent.

2- Show mercy to the weak and you will be happy; give to the needy, you will be well; do not bear grudges, and you will be healthy.

3- Be optimistic for ALLAH is always with you.

4- Wipe away your tears and chase away your worries by remembering the blessings that ALLAH has bestowed upon you.

5- Do not think this world is perfect for anyone. There is no one on the face of earth who gets all that he/she wants or is free from all kinds of distress.

6- Be like a tall tree with high aims; if a stone is thrown at it, it simply lets its fruits drop.

7- Have you ever heard that grief brings back what has been lost? Ask forgiveness for you and others instead of spending time grieving and worrying.

8- Always ask for peace of mind, safety and good health.

9- Extinguish the flames of hatred from your heart by forgiving everyone who has ever hurt you.

10- Wudu', siwak and being organized are effective medicines for all kinds of distress and worry.
