Who told you this world would be fair or perfect?

It wasn't Allah. In fact, he promised that every last person will face tests on Earth. We know that no trial will last forever, but still, why is Allah testing you so much? Is this a sign of his punishment?

What response does he expect from? Oh, And I'm not. And imamamam in the Joesi Rahimah

and hilah mohhala tells this story about a man in his lifetime

who used to pray in the Masjid for 80 years every single Salah.

And then this man's son died.

And instead of turning back to Allah,

he turns around and says,

it's no point for anyone to make duat to Allah because Allah does not listen to anyone's prayers.

He said at that moment I realized that this man was merely worshiping Allah out of habit,

but he didn't have a relationship based in any knowledge or faith.

And this is what Allah meant when he said,

Wamina Nasi Ma'ya Abu-Du la-Hauf that some people worship Allah on an edge.

It's like they're standing on a cliff, and if something happens that they don't like, they just jump off with their faith.

At the root of it is that the relationship with Allah is conditional, it's circumstantial, and it only sticks if he doesn't test you the way that you don't want him to.

On the other hand, look at the Prophet Salah al-A-Lahu Ali was

in a moment that would have broke any of us in Taif.

In the miaquin bikr.

Radabun al-A-Laiya fella-u-Baoi.
