Every single success you experience is a combination of two things: your effort and Allah's help. When you don't put in enough effort, Allah does not give His barakah. And sometimes you might put in a lot of effort but you may not see the result you expected. That, also, is Allah's barakah.
Nouman Ali KhanPeople of dua are optimistic by definition. They know that dua and thoughts like 'unlikely' or 'impossible' don't coexist.
Nouman Ali KhanIf we show Allah just a little bit of gratitude, He tells us, 'I will increase you, and increase you, and increase you, I swear to it. If you could only show Me the least bit of gratitude.'
Nouman Ali KhanFilthy language is used by people who don't have the maturity or intelligence to express themselves with better words.
Nouman Ali KhanThe question is grateful to who? You would think grateful to Allah, but Allah didnโt mention Himself. So it could be grateful to Allah, grateful to your parents, grateful to your teachers, grateful for your health, grateful to friends. Grateful to anyone whoโs done anything for you. Grateful to your employer for giving you a job. Appreciative. Grateful is not just an act of saying Alhamdulilah. Grateful is an attitude, itโs a lifestyle, itโs a way of thinking. Youโre constantly grateful.
