Ahmed was an ordinary young man, engrossed in his daily life. He was so caught up in his work, worries, and worldly matters that he had forgotten to pay attention to God. He believed that every success in life was solely the result of his hard work, and any failure was someone else’s fault.
One day, Ahmed’s life took a turn that changed his perspective entirely. He was working in a company that suddenly faced financial difficulties. Salaries were halted, and eventually, he was laid off. For months, he struggled to find a new job, until he had no money left even for food.
In despair, Ahmed sat in a park, wondering why all of this was happening to him. Suddenly, an old man approached him and asked, “Son, why do you look so troubled?” Ahmed poured his heart out. The old man smiled and said, “Have you ever tested God’s love?” Ahmed was surprised, “God? I’ve never really paid much attention to Him.” The old man gently said, “If you sincerely ask for His help, He will surely listen. Just trust in Him.”
That night, for the first time, Ahmed prayed sincerely. The next day, he received a job offer from an old company, something he had thought impossible. He was amazed—how had this happened? He realized that maybe, just maybe, God had answered his prayer.
This event changed his life. He embraced gratitude and patience, always trusting in God’s love. Now, he understood that behind every difficulty, there was a divine wisdom, and every decision made by God was for the betterment of His people.
