I heard someone saying: "C'mon brother, I'm only young! What do you expect me to do man? Its not easy being a Muslim.."

Who ever said its easy being a Muslim anyway? You think you can claim to be a Muslim and you'll just be let away? No! You won't be let off! You'll definitely be tested! You think you can claim to be a Muslim and every time you walk down the road everyone will lay a red carpet for you? It doesn't happen that way! As soon as you enrol in a university, that's it, the work starts! Then your assignments and essays and thesis or whatever.. all these things begin! You think its easy getting a degree?

You think its easy having a degree of Emaan?

You think you're going to get Jannah for NOTHING?!? As soon as you read لا اله الا الله محمد رسول الله, you think everyone is going to start treating you nicely?

When Rasoolullah (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) gave his first public sermon you know what happened? MashaAllah the heavens didn't open up, and the earth didn't give up its treasures.. Rasoolullah's (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) two daughter's were engaged to be married to two son's of Abu Lahab. And the moment the Prophet (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) gave his first sermon Abu Lahab came on the Prophet's case and said, "Woe be to you! Is this why you gathered us to tell us you're a Prophet of Allah?"

Allah (سبحانه و تعالی) revealed:
تَبَّتْ يَدَا أَبِي لَهَبٍ وَتَبَّ Al-Masad [111:1]
Condeming him and his wife! So Abu Lahab went home and said to two of his sons who were engaged to be married to two daughters of Rasoolullah (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) Ruqayyah (رضی الله عنها) and Umm e Kulsoom (رضی الله عنها) and he said: "Well if you're my sons call of your marriage with the daughters of Muhammad (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم).

So the first sermon of Rasoolullah (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم), two of his daughters who were sorted, supposed to be married; their engagement broke off. And then everybody turned against Rasoolullah (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم).

You think there is no solution? We have got no solution but Allah has all the solutions. We have got all the problems. Infact we're so full of problems, everything we touch becomes a problem. I'm yet to see somebody who's come up to me saying: "Brother, make dua. I'm living such a nice healthy life, I'm so fit and strong, make dua I get sickness.." Have you ever seen anyone make such a dua?

"Brother I've got a nice job, Make dua Allah gives me the sack." or.. "Brother, I've got such a nice relationship with my wife! Make dua she runs away." 😀

No. Have you ever seen anybody make such dua? No!

People will ask you, "I've got serious problem at home brother, make dua please...! That Allah sort's my wife out!"

Everybody has got their own problems.

Someone who's got no job, he's got a problem looking for a job. Those who've got a job, got a problem with the job! Many people have got a problem looking for a wife. Those who've got a wife, got a problem with the wife. Many people don't have kids, problem having kids.. Those who've got kids.. problem with the kids! 🙂

Infact, whatever we touch becomes a problem. But Allah has the solution to all the problems. You will see the road is a deadend.. but you start doing what Allah wants you to do, and then you'll see how Allah takes over!
