You, them and Allah (SWT)

You, them and Allah (SWT)

(Taken from lutonmuslims)

If you are kind; people may accuse you of selfish; ulterior motives;

Be kind anyway.

People are often unreasonable; illogical and self-centered;

Forgive them anyway.

If you are successful; you will win some false friends and some true enemies;

Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank; people may cheat you;

Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building; someone could destroy overnight;

Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness; they may be jealous;

Be happy anyway.

The good you do today; people will often forget tomorrow;

Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have; and it may never be enough;

Give the world the best you've got anyway.

You see; in the final analysis; it is between you and Allah. It never was between you and them anyway. It doesn't matter if the outcome isn't as expected or as wanted; because Allah will see; judge and reward Inshallah. We do things for other people...for the sake of Allah; we help; give; love; care; share; forgive etc for the sake of Allah. Our intentions should always be for His sake and pleasure. Inshallah.

...Then; whatever they do or say won't bring you down Inshallah; because it was for Allah anyway...
