Trials & Tribulations

Life is always full of trials & tribulations. Even in good times we're actually being tested. There's no doubt that we'll be tested again and again. And at times when the test seems so harsh, we'll wonder, "Why me?"

But you know, someone dear to me once said:

"..one should know that whatever test that Allah has laid down for us, He knows that the test will ALWAYS be of a size that we can cope/deal with.."

For those who are currently being tested, hang in there. In time, you will be fine. Remember - time heals.

And right now I'm wondering - If this is the case, then probably that's why suicide is not accepted in Islam. And that's why if we fail the (some of the) test(s), then punishment awaits in the hereafter.
