arghhh!!!...am trying to be patient!!!

i really like to share this invaluable understanding that clicked in my head yesterday...

it's not that i never knew it before, but i guess the circumstances made me understand this more...:)

i was discussing with ustazah Jihad about an Arabic conversation. a guy was explaining to his friend why does his aunt lives with him. 

"my aunt had just gone through an unfortunate event, her husband and son died in an accident. that is why she's living with my family now, though this incidence could have affected her badly, she's a strong women, she didn't weep al the time and her face is always calm."

"ya liyana, as sobr feehi ithnain nau'an...fi sobr ma'a redho wa fi sobr ma'a sakhot" 

"liyana, there are two types of patience, there is patience with acceptance and there is patience with discontent"

said ustazah Jihad once we went through the guy's explanation. and she added:

when you face a problem that upsets you, yes you could say..."am being patient"...but your face would not fake others if you are really upset. it will be expressed by your bad mood...everybody around you can tell by just looking at your face that something is wrong...but, a person who accepts what has destined for him when an unfortunate event befalls him, he would say "la haula wala quwwata illa billah" and smile.

and this is not easy ya liyana. not everybody can do it...that is why, we pray to Allah:

أَللَّهُم أَرْضَ عَنِّي رَضَاءً ﻻ سَخَطَ بَعْدَهُ أبَدًا

and yesterday i realize that i haven't been thoroughly patient before...

take what is good, correct me if am wrong

a wonderful day to start a new year...:D
