One should speak the truth, whatever be the consequences of it in this life, as we all believe that Allah SWT is All-Hearing and All-Seeing and we will be held accountable for our deeds in front of Allah SWT, and this life is temporary. We all need reminders of Allah's mercy during these days, to keep our hopes high and faith strong. Very beautifully described the steadfastness and faith in Allah during difficult times. We need to learn lessons from the lives of the Noble Companions of Prophet Muhammad (sallaAllahu alayhe wasallam), may Allah SWT give us patience and strong faith in all our trials of this life. Ameen. I also liked, a very good and simple dua you have mentioned. "O Controller of the hearts, make my heart adhere firmly to Your religion." As Salamu Alaikum Wa Rehmatulahi Wa Barakatuhu

Without even thinking we let the lies roll off our tongue and sigh in relief when we've escaped. But what a great reminder that while we may escape the disappointment, punishment and/or anger from people in this world, we most surely have not escaped from Allah (swt) nor can we ever deceive Him. SubhanAllah, I'm just thinking of all that pressure that was on Ka'b's (ra) shoulders and having to answer to greatest man ever to live while hearing person after person lie and then be forgiven. How easy would it have been to follow the crowd! Can't wait for part 2 :) Asalaamu Alaykum,
