What you say reveals how happy you are. More than that, what you say can bring about your happiness or undermine it.

The eye sees, the ear hears, and the tongue gives it expression. Based on this, a person chooses what will either be good or bad. Your happiness and sadness do not depend on what you see and hear other people doing. It is your reaction that counts, what you do and say in response.

Do not entertain useless arguments. Say what is good. Expect what is good. Anticipate it. Do not let your thoughts run after fears, suspicions, and misgivings. When your friend tells you that you seem uncomfortable, respond that you are happy. Let your positive response improve your mood and make you happy for real. Do not weigh yourself down with negative thoughts. Do not call yourself a loser, an idiot, or weak-willed. Do not think that the doors of opportunity have been slammed in your face or that your life has no point. Make it your habit to say things that are positive, wholesome, and good, like Allah instructs us to do in the Quran. The people around you should only hear warm, agreeable and hopeful words from you.

You have what it takes. Pray to Allah with hope, keeping in mind that you are strengthening your abilities, building confidence in your future, reinforcing your will, and expecting the best from your Lord. Fire up your imagination by envisioning what you hope to achieve. Even if you sometimes lapse into your old ways, do not get frustrated. Say to yourself that you will try again and get it right.

“The Language of Happiness” – Salman Al-Oadah

[Sahih Muslim : Book 5, Book Name Kitab Al-Zakat, Number 2279]

Anas (Radi Allah Anhu) reported Allah’s Messenger (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) as saying:
“The son of Adam grows old, but two (desires) in him remain young: desire for wealth and desire for life.”

[Sahih Muslim : Book 5, Book Name Kitab Al-Zakat, Number 2282]

Anas (Radi Allah Anhu) reported Allah’s Messenger (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) as saying:
“If the son of Adam were to possess two valleys of riches. he would long for the third one. And the stomach of the son of Adam is not filled but with dust. And Allah returns to him who repents.”

[Sahih Muslim : Book 5, Book Name Kitab Al-Zakat, Number 2285]

Ibn Abbas (Radi Allah Anhu) reported Allah’s Messenger (sal-allahu-alleihi-wasallam) as saying:
“If there were for the son of Adam a valley full of riches, he would long to possess another one like it. and Ibn-e-Adam does not feel satiated but with dust. And Allah returns to him who returns (to Him).”

✦ Al Quran : Aur Zun-Noon (Yunus Alaihi Salam ko yaad karo ) jab wo (apni qaum se naraz hokar) gusse ki halat mein chal diye aur khayal kiya ki hum un par qabu nahi pa sakenge aakhir andhere mein pukarne lage ki
لَّا إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا أَنتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي كُنتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ
La ilaha illa Anta subhanaka inni kuntu min Az-zalimeen
(Ya ALLAH) tere siwa koi ibadat ke layaq nahi , tu paak hai (aur) beshak mein Qusurwar hu.to humne unki Dua Qubul kar li aur unko gam se nijat bakhshi aur imaan walo ko hum usee tarah nijat dete hain
Surah Al-Anbiya (21), verse 87-88

✦ अल क़ुरान : फिर मछली ने उनको ( यूनुस अलैही सलाम) को निगल लिया , और वो मलामत करने वाले थे फिर अगर वो ( अल्लाह की) तसबीह बयान नही करते, तो उस रोज़ तक जब लोग दोबारा उठाए जयांगे ( यानी क़यामत तक) उसके पेट में ही रहते
सुरह साफ्फात (37) , 142-144

✦ अल क़ुरान : और ज़ुन-नून (यूनुस अलैही सलाम को याद करो ) जब वो (अपनी क़ौम से नाराज़ होकर) गुस्से की हालत में चल दिए और ख़याल किया की हम उन पर क़ाबू नही पा सकेंगे आख़िर अंधेरे में (अल्लाह को) पुकारने लगे की
لَّا إِلَـٰهَ إِلَّا أَنتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي كُنتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ
ला इलाहा इल्ला अन्ता सुबहानका इन्नी कुन्तु मिन अज़ ज़ालिमिन
(या अल्लाह) तेरे सिवा कोई इबादत के लायक़ नही , तू पाक है (और) बेशक में क़ुसूरवार हूँ तो हमने उनकी दुआ क़ुबूल कर ली और उनको गम से निजात बख़्शी और ईमान वालों को हम इसी तरह निजात देते हैं
सुरह अल-अन्बिया (21), आयत 87

Gaur Farmayiye Ki Jab Ek Ummati Jo Quraan padhta Hain Uske Maa-Baap Ko Qayamat Ke Roz Noorani Taaj Pehnaya Jayega, To Wo Khud Zaat-A-Wala Sifat Jisper Quraan Utra Aur Jo Khud Quraan Batane Wale Hain Unke Waalidain Karimain Ki Ba-Roz-A-Qayamat Koi Taazim Wa Takrim Na Ho? Kya Yeh Baat Akl May Aasakti Hain?

Jin Dilon Ke Mustafa Ik Lakht Ho,
Kyon Na Wo Maa-Baap Fir Khush-Bakht Ho!
