Never Despair! Allah’s Mercy Is Always There

Knowing that the mercy of Allah will prevail over His punishment is reason never to lose hope. When we are overcome, we should remember that all is never lost.

If you ever think there is no point in living because you have reached a dead end, committed too many mistakes and are doomed, you are in fact shutting out an ocean of forgiveness and second chances. It is all there for the taking. So long as we breathe, the way ahead can be filled with light and mercy.

Never think that it is too late to change. Our mistakes, no matter how many or how huge, are never beyond the mercy of Allah. We are small and insignificant, so it is nothing for Allah to forgive us.

Only with His mercy can we amount to anything, and that is why we should not be too overwhelmed to the point of despair by our own flaws.

We complicate our life stories by over-thinking and making assumptions. Sometimes, we rush to judge ourselves. His mercy is there for those who ask.

With that humbling knowledge, we can always remember to hope for better and continue striving. When we are troubled by our thoughts , when we are tempted to run away because we are afraid, we should remember these words.

We should aspire to exemplify mercy in whatever way we can. Mercy and forgiveness are better than punishment and revenge. Sometimes we think that forgiveness and making peace in the face of provocation is a sign of weakness.

Rather, mercy, peacefulness, and forgiveness are indications of inner strength. We should not judge harshly or condemn, but rather rush to pardon as we hope to be pardoned one day. We should not hesitate to grant others the same mercy and forgiveness that we wish for ourselves.
