So wait steadfastly


‘Al-Ghazali said, “If you see Allah, Mighty and Magnificent, holding back this world from you, frequently trying you with adversity and tribulation, know that you hold a great status with Him. Know that He is dealing with you as He does with His Awliya’ and chosen elite, and is watching over you, have you not heard His saying, So wait steadfastly for the judgment of your Lord – you are certainly before Our eyes. {At-Tur 52:48}”
