6. Prophet Yusuf (AS) - Remaining patient and faithful even when facing trials after trials

 Prophet Yusuf (AS) - Remaining patient and faithful even when facing trials after trials

There is much to learn from the story of Prophet Yusuf, as he is an example of an afflicted believer who remained patient and faithful to his God.


When Prophet Yusuf was a child, he had brothers who were so jealous of him that they came up with a plan to get rid of him. He was then thrown inside a well and left there. This led him to be separated from his beloved father for many years, then becoming a slave and being thrown in prison for a wrongdoing that he did not commit. Through constant patience and remembrance of Allah, the prophet was successful in all of life’s tests following that episode, and was rewarded for his patience.

After so much hardship, he still rose up, with his patience, bravery and reliance on Allah. Only those who are truly patient and reliant only to Him will be able to understand that whatever happens to a person has been predestined by God. With every adversity, we should try to continuously pick ourselves up, and continue along the straight path with sabr.

8. Prophet Ibrahim (AS) - The Greatest Sacrifice

  Prophet Ibrahim (AS) - The Greatest Sacrifice When Ibrahim was sent to be a messenger for his people of his town, they rejected his words and continued praying to their idols made of wood and stones. Once, there was an annual festival in town where the King went out with all his people to celebrate. The Prophet then went to the temple to demolish all the idols, except for the largest one. When they found out about what happened, they wanted to punish him by burning him alive in a fire. It is related that when the Prophet was thrown into the fire, he invoked supplications and made dua to Allah, then came the command from God. The blazing fire instantly lost its heat and no harm came to him, and he came out of the pit untouched by the fire.   حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs [Surat Al-Imran: 173] This powerful dua can be recited in times of hardship and challenges. Islam teaches us that success does not ...

2. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) - Seeking Knowledge

  The first revelation that Allah s.w.t. revealed to our beloved Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was the commandment for his people to seek knowledge, through the spirit of “Iqra”. When Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) received his first revelation in Hira’ Cave through angel Jibril, he was asked to “iqra”, which means read. Astounded, he replied “I am not literate.” He was asked two more times to read, but he answered again, that he could not read. After that, angel Jibril conveyed the revelation: "Read in the name of your Lord Who created; created man from a clinging substance. Read, and your Lord is the Most Generous Who taught by the pen; taught man that which he knew not” (Surah Al-’Alaq; 1-5).

7.Prophet Sulaiman (AS) - Trials of wealth and worldly success

 Prophet Sulaiman (AS) - Trials of wealth and worldly success Prophet Sulaiman was one of the prophets who was rich and granted a glorious kingdom to rule. He also had the ability to know the language of animals and during one time, there lived an ant. The ant      had some of the best qualities such as helpfulness and was always putting the needs of her kingdom above her own. At one time, Prophet Sulaiman had gathered his army of jinns, humans and birds and they were marching towards the direction of the ant nest. The ant then heard that the army was approaching, and knew that they were likely to crush all of them. Being ants, they are always overlooked and barely noticeable. She informed her community of the potential disaster so that all the ants can seek refuge in their homes.  With the help of Allah, the prophet then heard the tiny ant’s plea. Hearing the ants talk, the prophet thanked Allah for the many blessings bestowed upon him including his ability to...
