we have all heard how it's important to detach yourself from the deep love of the dunya & learn to prioritize your deen. however, learning how to do it in a healthy way is key. one place we all get lost is in the concept of thinking that we are in complete control over every single thing. this mindset can easily destory someone while creating a endless chase & love for the dunya as an individual imagines the idea of having authority over all his affairs. We are only capable of doing what...

tawakkul (trust) is a big part of our faith as muslims. & while alot of us keep tawakkul in Allah SWT when things are going good, it's equivalently important, if not more, to keep firm & stronger tawakkul in Allah when things don't go your way. One of the big questions I ask myself everytime things don't go my way is "do I want to do this, or do I want God to do this".. and any person, who has even the slightest tawakkul will agree that letting God handle your affairs is the best choice....

This also applies when we try to define success in the dunya. the most common definitions of success at a worldly level is to be at peace. reality is, no matter what you have, even if it's everything you dream of & more, you will never be 100% at peace for a long period of t...
