In dunya, the image is always better than the reality. In Jennah, the Reality is better than any image ever could be.
Sometimes we make duaa for a door of dunya. When it doesn't open, we cry. Not realizing that Allah has instead opened a door of jennah for us.
What's given to dunya is lost forever. What's given to Allah is never lost. If you give what you love, for the sake of what He loves, you'll have what you love forever.
Don't expect your spouse to be perfect. Heshe is only the dunya version of themselves. Their 'perfect' version is saved for jennah.
Worrying about the dunya is a darkness in the heart, while worrying about akhirah is a light in the heart.
If you are looking for happiness in this world (dunya), you're in the wrong place.
Never lose hope. Stay close to Allah and when you mess up, go back to Him. Never, ever stop going back to Him. Repent often. Cry to Allah. And hold on tight-with your life-to His remembrance and to prayer. If you do this, you may get wet, but insha Allah never drown in this ocean of dunya.
Before anything can break your heart, it must first own your heart. Stop handing your heart to dunya-it'll stop breaking it.
And that is the secret of this world. If you remove love of dunya from your heart, the dunya is yours for the taking. You can have the dunya because it's in your hand and not in your heart
