The Affair of the Believer is Amazing.

Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh, brothers,

InshaAllah all is well with everyone. Things are nice as normal on my end, alhamdulillah, Maryam is still growing, doing new things everyday :), and I have no complaints, alhamdulillah. Also, inshaAllah, I will be in the North Jersey area (near NYC) on the week of Dec. 1 - 9, so inshaAllah, for those of you in that vicinity, we can meet up.

Anyways, I have always found the following hadeeth to be extremely beautiful, mashaAllah, it shows us just how our deen has prepared us to face whatever comes our way in life.

Suhaib reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: "The affair of the believer is amazing! The whole of his life is beneficial, and that is only in the case of the believer. When good times come to him, he is thankful and it is good for him, and when bad times befall him,, he is patient and it is also good for him." [Saheeh Muslim, Book 042, Number 7138]

wassalaam,
Ahmad
