Ayat Al Qur’an - Surah An-Nazi'at (Those Who Pull Out) - (79:40-41)
وَأَمَّا مَنْ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِۦ وَنَهَى ٱلنَّفْسَ عَنِ ٱلْهَوَىٰ
But as for he who feared standing before his Lord and restrained his soul from the desire (of lusts, passions and deviations).
فَإِنَّ ٱلْجَنَّةَ هِىَ ٱلْمَأْوَىٰ
Then verily, Paradise will be the abode (for him).
Hadith
Anas ibn Malik reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Paradise is surrounded by hardships, and Hellfire is surrounded by temptations.”

Reflection Point
Navigating the hardships and temptations in life..
Can be tough!
They don't come with a warning..
But arrives like a steam train running through your life.
So whats the answer to this?
Well...
The key is to be aware of everything around you!
Be conscious that you will be tested..
Because nobody is left untouched!
So you have to learn the importance of self control.
Learn to control your desires from things that will ultimately cause your destruction.
And know that everything worth fighting for....
Will ultimately be a tremendous hardship.
So choose the hardship you would like.
Hardship with success down the line.
Or..
Hardship..
After a downwards spiral of following your desires and lusts.
It may seem like a daunting thought.
But the reality is that a short period of hardship..
Upon the correct intentions for the sake of Allah.
Will be your cause of success.
You just need to be patient!
