If you are poor then someone else is heavily in
debt.
If you don’t have a car then someone else doesn’t have two legs.
If you are ill, then someone else has been bedridden for years.
If you have lost a parent then someone else has lost both parents in a single accident…
Today before you say an unkind word – Think of someone who can’t speak,
Think of someone who has to use sign language to tell his family he loves them and they've never heard the sound of their parent's voice or the recitation of the Holy Quran!
Before you complain about the taste of your food – Think of someone who has nothing to eat.
When you’re frustrated because you can not decide what food you should cook, remember that there is a mother in Somalia who can not decide which of her children she should give the little food she has while the other is left to die.
Before you complain about your husband or wife -
Think of someone who’s crying out to Allah for a companion.
Today before you complain about life – Think about someone who died today is being placed in the ground at this moment and this will be their first night in their kabr, all alone
Before you complain about your children – Think of someone who desires children but they’re barren…
Before you argue about your dirty house, someone didn’t clean or sweep – Think of the people who are living in the streets.
Before whining about the distance you drive – Think of someone who walks the same distance with their feet…
And when you are tired and complain about your job – Think of the unemployed, the disabled, and those who wished they had your job..
Before you think of pointing that finger or condemning another – Remember that not one of us is without sin.
And when depressing thoughts seem to get you down – Put a smile on your face and think: You’re alive and still around and it’s never too late to make TAWBAH and turn back to Allah Subhanna Wa Ta’ala
"Oh, Allah, forgive me when I whine!"
