 We must be grateful to Allah at all costs whether we are in hardship, ease, having the time of our lives, or in difficulty such as financial problem or the death of a loved one. Allah has promised us if we are grateful to HIM he will give you even more and much more than you have imagined. On the otherhand if we are ungrateful to Allah and whin about petty things then be ready to face the wrath of Allah. Just like Bani Israel nation when Allah was giving them Mon Salwa to eat they were happy and grateful as soon as they became impatient and ungrateful to Allah, Allah took away everything from them. Allah has surely promised that after every hardship, calamity and difficulty comes ease and better living conditions so stop being ungrateful to Allah if you have suffered a loss whether it is financially or the loss of a loved one or being divorced or being single throughout much of your life or your property just got lost or you got poor grades as a student.

 One shouldnt be jealous of one another as we should see people below us in abilities, wealth, intelligence, looks and socio economic status. Allah has blessed everyone with his blessings and for some he has given more and for some a little less in wealth. We shouldnt compare each other and be jealous of someone who has more than us. If Allah made every one rich then there wouldnt be any people working as janitors, sweepers, drivers, peons and servants etc and in this way the system of Allah wont work in this world. About back biting Islam said that backbiting is the same as eating your dead brothers flesh which you will surely abhor. Back biting is a social evil as all those things said behind someone's back if he/she would mind it said in front of him then we shouldnt say it behind his/ her back which is a major sin in Islam.  In the end what I would like to say is that Surah Falaq should be recited in order to get protection from the evil eyes of jealousy.

 The purpose of life in islam is to worship Allah and Allah alone especially for Muslims. Money has not be given as much importance in life as it is for worldly purpose and materialistic gains. Worshipping Allah and Allah alone without shirk has been given upmost importance in Islam as compared to earning money. Besides love for money and worshipping money is another form of shirk in the eyes of Allah. Our life in this temporary world has not been given any importance by Allah but our deeds, our actions and our ibadat of Allah has been given the utmost importance by Allah. All our 1 lakh and 24 thousand prophets send to earth and which definitely includes our last prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad (Peace be upon him) have been advocating and emphasizing in the ibadat of Allah whether it is reading the Quran or praying five times namaz or keeping fasts or performing Haj or Umrah.. In the end what I would like to say is that if a person fulfils this purpose of life of praying and wors...
