The Art of Rising Above

 


One of my favorite Quranic chapters is the chapter of Prophet Yusuf/ Joseph. It kinda soothes my heart every time I listen to it. Prophet Mohamed PBUH also stated that whoever is going through grief and sadness and listens to Surat Yusuf recitation will be uplifted. A story that is full of ups and downs. A story that started with plot, sorrow, hurt, and agony and ended with hope and reconciliation. Prophet Yusuf was a person who was blessed with handsomeness, loved by his beloveds, and had transcendent authority but was plagued with envy and jealousness from within his brothers. 

Well, let’s remember that we can't blame people for their God-given gifts and talents, but we should check our hearts for how we percieve God given gifts upon them. When we see God’s grace upon His creatures, do we feel happy and pray for the blessing of their success? 

Or what?👀

And look at how Prophet Yusuf never managed to retaliate or say something back even though he heard their lies and slurs. And let’s remember how he forgave them all! He forgave and moved on!

This is the true art of forgiveness, the art of rising above your enemies or frenemies or hypocrites.

It’s soothing to acknowledge that the divine power is above all powers by which Allah will reward the patience, and avenge the evil plotters. InshaAllah!

If you’ve been a victim of traitors or evil manipultors, rest assured that sticking by good mannerisms is your way out. May Allah guide us all! Amen!
