When Allah ﷻ Want To Make You Powerful, He Breaks You First
When everything falls apart at once—your health, your finances, your relationships, your plans—that’s not Allah ﷻ punishing you. That’s Him preparing you for something bigger than you can imagine. The pain you’re carrying right now? The betrayal that crushed you? The loss that broke you? That’s pressure. The same pressure that turns coal into diamonds. The same fire that turns iron into steel. Most people quit when it hurts. They assume Allah ﷻ is angry. They don’t realize: the hardest tests come to the strongest believers. Anas ibn Malik رضي الله عنه reported in authenticated hadith: “When Allah loves a people, He tests them.” Not “comforts them.” TESTS them.
