When
you can’t see any logic in what’s going on, and questions arise, recall Nūḥ (as) who built the biggest ship on dry land
without questioning.
When
you find your parents opposing you (in dīn), recall Ibrāhīm (as) who was thrown
into a blazing fire by his father.
When
you are hurt by your own, recall Yūsuf (as) who was betrayed by his own
brothers.
When
you’re stuck, and cannot find a way out, recall Yūnus (as) who was stuck inside
the belly of a whale.
When
you’re mocked, abused, and taunted by your own, just because you adopted dīn
over dunyā, recall Muḥammad (saw) who faced much
worse.”
