The economic situation now is bad.....I heard that many people have been laid off....have been unemployed......They have every reason to be angry, to be sad.....to blame it on somebody else (in some cases.....)....
Luckily for me....my employer is still holding on to it's staff.....alhamdulillah....all praise be to Allah.
I received a bad news from home. One of my uncles was diagnosed with a stage 2 Thyroid Lymphoma....a type of cancer. It was a devastating news for us all....He is one of the relatives who are close to us. I even stayed with him and his family when I first started working in Bangi.
When we got married, we stayed at his house for a few months before moving to a rental house....which belonged to him.....We rented his house for almost 5 years before moving to our own house.
It's a little disappointing for us not to be by his side to lend our support. However, knowing him for so long, I know that he is strong....plus that he has his loving family around for support.
We just pray that Allah will give him and everybody the strength to face this ultimate test.

As Muslims, Allah is the only solace that we have.....after everything that we do....after trying hard and doing our best.....it's to Him that we should return to and ask for help.....
Allah will give us some difficulties....but in the end, He promises that there's a light at the very end of every dark tunnel.....
Let's take a look at this one Surah (verse) from the Holy Quran:
Surah Al-Insyirah - An 8-versed Makiyyah Surah. It is revealed that Allah is the comfort and removal of obstacles.....and that at the end of a difficulty, there's always ease.....
Historically, this Surah served as consolations for the Holy Prophet when he was having confusions and difficulties professing Islam in the early days.
