1. When our Prophet returned back to his home after seeing Jibreel for the very first time, he was scared and trembling.
Mother Khadija embraced him. Prophet questioned himself saying, What has happened to me?
Prophet was confused, in shock.
2. And Mother Khadija at that very moment said something beautiful. She herself doesn't understand what's happening but she needs to reassure her husband and calm him down, so she says, "No way! This is a great news. Allah will never disgrace you"
3. Those words brought much-needed tranquillity to the Prophet's heart.
It's words that make or break someone.
Words!
Sometimes we also don't understand what is happening to us. Like one moment we are doing fine and all of a sudden we are sucked into this tempest.
4. We wanted a normal life and were satisfied with the status quo but then life presents itself to us like Jibreel covering the entire horizon and we are overwhelmed. We go numb, we go into a shell. Nothing makes sense anymore and we feel as if we might lose our mind anytime now.
5. The horizon might be covered with all of your failures or upcoming uphill tasks and at that moment we just need a reminder from within or from someone "No way! This is a great news. Allah will never disgrace you"
6. The truth is that HE will never disgrace you!
You don't need to be afraid of that horizon anymore, in fact, you will realise that those failures and uphill tasks cowering you down have been sent by Allah himself for your growth, to teach you, to perfect you!
InShaAllah Khair

When Prophet pbuh reached the cave of Sawr where he and Abu Bakr hid for 3 days while being pursued by Kuffar of Makkah. Abu Bakr knew what was supposed to happen, so he became sad. Why?
2. Because they had worked so hard for Islam & now this end seemed too unfulfilling.
It was not supposed to end like this. Noticing Abu Bakr to be gloomy, Prophet said to him “Don’t be sad, Allah is with us” 9:40. Surely, Allah is with us so there’s no need to be sad or worry.
3. This should be our motto in our life. Whenever life hits us and crushes us, we feel overwhelmed, numb, helpless. We feel crushed by our hopes and dependencies. We had given our everything for that degree, job, person and yet it fell short of enough.
