What is real patience

Very Educative, don't miss reading this please!
*What is real patience?*
A fish said to the sea,
"You can never see my tears, because I am in the water."
The sea answered back, "But I can feel your tears, because you are within my heart."
This is how we are;
No one will feel us except those who are truly close to our hearts.
Arwah bin al-Zubayr's leg was cut off because of a disease he suffered, on the same day the dearest of his seven sons died.
The dearest son to his heart died after a horse kick killed him.
Arwah said: "Allahumma lakal hamd, Inna lilLahi wa inna Ilaihi raaji'un."
[ Ya Allah! All thanks to You, we are from Allah and to Him is our return ]
You gave me 7 sons and took one, gave me two legs & two hands but took only one leg.
When Allah (SWT) besets calamities on us, He compensates us always by forgiving our most of our transgressions.
When He takes away something, He always gives back better things.
I ask Allah (SwT) to join all true Ummah of Rasool [SAW] together in Jannah.
Days passed, on one ultimate day Arwah went to the house of the Khalifa of the time where he saw a blind old Sheikh with a damaged face.

The Khalifa said:  "Oh Arwah ask this Sheikh his story".
Arwah asked the Sheik as directed.

The Sheikh said, "Ya Arwah! I used to live in a valley and in that valley there was nobody richer than me ( money, property and children wise ).
Within a single night, floods from heavy rain washed away my children, properties
and everything that I ever had.
By the next day, after sunrise, I had only a small baby and a camel.
The camel ran away, and I ran after it but did not get far when I heard screams of a baby.
I turned back only to see my baby's head in the mouth of a wolf.
I tried saving the baby but the wolf had torn him apart.
As I turned to go away, the wolf jumped and hit my face, that incidence made me blind, and damaged my face.
Arwah asked the Sheikh, "What did you say after all this, Ya Sheikh? ".
The Sheikh replied: I said, "Allahumma Lakalhamd", You Graciously left with me a heart and a tongue that will always Glorify You".
This is the story of real patience;
these two people are among those who Allah (SWT) mentions thus:
ﺇﻧﻤﺎ ﻳﻮﻓﻰ ﺍﻟﺼﺎﺑﺮﻭﻥ ﺃﺟﺮﻫﻢ ﺑﻐﻴﺮ ﺣﺴﺎﺏ
( "only the patient will be paid back their rewards in full without measure" )
What kind of calamity have you encountered that made you sad and
live in misery?
Can you compare their misery to yours?
They were patient and Allah Promises to Reward them; if we are
impatient what reward do we hope to get?
Rabbana Lakalhamd Hamdan Katheeran Tayyiban Mubaarakan Feeh.
We are living with our families; we enjoy good health and well-being.
We sleep on our beds, others sleep on the floor, some sleep on garbage while many are in their graves.

We eat and drink to our fill, others wake up and go to sleep in the night with empty stomachs, others are on hospital beds unable to eat or drink, they are being fed through the tube, So
" Fa bi ayyi aala'irabbiku maa tukadhiban?"

(WHICH OF THE FAVOURS OF YOUR LORD ( Allah SWT ) DO YOU DENY?)
May Allah [SWT] Reward any person who reads and shares this article.
Please endeavor to *Share* this wonderful story with all your colleagues and loved ones.
May Allah's Grace and Favours repose in us and our families always!

Steps on how to perform the purification bath (Ghusl/Jannabat) in Islam. *Rules Regarding Ghusl and Wet Dreams for Men and Women*

*BED ~ WETTING & GUSL ~ JANABAH* *Rules Regarding Ghusl and Wet Dreams for Men and Women* *Q u e s t i o n s:* (1) I have learned that if a women who has reached puberty has an erotic dream and sees some discharge afterwards, she has to make Ghusl. (2) If she sees discharge alone without remembering a dream, she would also have to take Ghusl. But if she remembers only the dream without seeing discharge, she doesn’t have to take Ghusl. (3) What if a women constantly has discharge? How does she know when to take Ghusl and when not? (4) Can u briefly explain the step by step way of performing Gusl Janabah according to Sunnah? *R E S P O N S E* بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم *With regards to wet dreams, men and women have the similar rulings.* *So, if a man or woman has a wet dream and he/she sees wetness/discharge they are obliged to make Ghusl, even if they are not certain the wetness is from an ejaculation/orgasm. In other words, even if he/she has constant di...

CHOOSING MY PARTNER ON SOCIAL MEDIA

*CHOOSING MY PARTNER ON SOCIAL MEDIA* *(An Admonition To Today's Youth)* I think you need to give a thought to this reminder, Allah bless you. Please be careful what you see in the distance for it may not look the same when it gets closer. Do not promise marriage to the person you just met on social media because sometimes you will be taken in by our posts only to realize that it's all 'cut and paste'. Many would-be couples have ran away because after meeting the partner they realized that this is not what they bargained for. Do not forget, appearances are deceptive. This person may post beautiful articles on Facebook with thousand likes and hundreds of comments but at the end of the day you find him as a dull and unintelligent man. Furthermore, many immoral persons may post Eeman-filled advices on Facebook and WhatsApp (If you see their prowess on WhatsApp pages you may even think they are the Mufti of Makkah) only to turn out to be irresponsible peop...

Everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME. Don’t be violent or mean to yourself for no reason other than just because your path is different from the person’s path beside you.

*TIME IS SOMETHING* She is married at the age of 21. - Oh and I’m still single at 35. She’s momming three kids. - Oh and I am 10 years married and have none. She is a manager in an international company. - Oh, we graduated together and I am still jobless. She travels the world . - Oh and I have never been abroad. Job title, income, grades, house, and Instagram and Facebook  likes—the number of categories in which we can compare ourselves to others are infinite. Where is it expected from you to be a doctor or engineer, get married by 21 and have mortgaged house and 3 kids by 26. RELAX. You’re not LATE. You’re not EARLY. Everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME. Don’t be violent or mean to yourself for no reason other than just because your path is different from the person’s path beside you. Be your own cheerleader. Stop comparing yourself with others and instead refocus all that energy internally and focus on how you can become the best ve...
