“I asked Allah for strength,
Allah gave me difficulties to make me strong.

I asked Allah for wisdom,
Allah gave me problems to solve.

I asked Allah for courage,
Allah gave me obstacles to overcome.

I asked Allah for love,
Allah gave me troubled people to help.

I asked Allah for favours ,
Allah gave me opportunities.

Maybe I received nothing I wanted, but I received everything I needed –
Alhamdulillah.”
