What please me?

Rasul Allah, sal Allah alayhi wa sallam, said, "A believing man should not hate a believing woman. If he dislikes one of her characteristics, he will be pleased with (her other characteristics)."
- Sahih Muslim, Hadith 705

[Lessons from this Hadith]

Focus on what's positive! That which is positive is infinite,and in focusing on it, we are focusing on that which will bring joy to our life. For the next seven days, ask yourself this question at the end of each day, "What are 10 beautiful things that happened to me today?"


[Hadith]
Allah's Messenger, sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam, said, "You will
be treated the way you treat others."

[Lessons from this Hadith]
Everyone goes around whining that they want to be respected.
But, honestly, how much respect do we serve out to others? Make
a list of all the different ways you want to be treated. When
you are done, you will have a to-do list of how you should treat
people. You've succeeded: you'll be treated back the way you
treated people!
