APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE

I asked Allah why I wasn't rich.

And He showed me a man

with the wealth of thousand kings,

who was lonely,

and had no one to share it with.

I asked Allah

why He allowed me to become old.

And He showed me a boy of 16,

who lay dead at a scene of a car accident.

I asked Allah why I didn't have a biggerhouse.

And He showed me a family of six,

who'd just got evicted from their tiny shack,

and were forced to live on the street.

I asked Allah why I wasn't smarter.

And Heshowed me a natural born genius,

who wasserving life in prison

for making ill use of hisknowledge.

I asked Allah

why He put up with a thanklesssinner like me.

And He showed me His Quran,

and the sacrifices of His beloved Prophet,

and I knew then how much He loved me...

Alhamdulillah....
