Life is Fair

 Is Life Really Unfair?


Have you wept over your life that you feel is unfair? Have you ever felt that the universe is not on your side? 

You might often find yourself trapped in the thought that life is unfair. Difficulties, disappointments, and frustrations make you feel like the world is against you. But is life really unfair, or is it perhaps your perspective that is unfair? 

We need to acknowledge that everyone faces different challenges. Some are tested by poverty, some by illness, and others by their physical conditions, while some seem to lead easier lives. However, if we look deeper, we will find that everyone, without exception, faces their own tests. 

Life provides different opportunities and challenges to each person, and how we respond to them is what truly makes the difference. When we feel that life is unfair, it is often a reflection of our minds focusing on the negative aspects. Our minds tend to magnify things that don’t go as expected and ignore the good things we have experienced. Fairness does not mean everyone gets the same outcome in every situation but that life gives us lessons suited to what we need to grow and develop. 

In Islam, it is explained that, "Indeed, Allah does not wrong anyone even to the extent of an atom's weight" (Qur'an, Surah An-Nisa: 40). This shows that Allah gives each of His creations their due rights and balance according to His wisdom. There is no injustice from Allah, but absolute justice in all His affairs. Allah does not burden a soul beyond its capacity (Qur'an, Surah Al-Baqarah: 286), and all His decrees are tests designed to assess our faith, patience, and sincerity.

Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it -Helen Keller

Love often strikes without warning, without a clear reason, and sometimes even without us realizing it. Have you ever found yourself wondering why you love someone? Then you might have thought, "Does loving someone always require a reason?" Some people might believe that love is something logical, that there must be a clear reason like physical attraction, personality, values, or a mutual understanding. Even so, according to psychologists like Robert Sternberg, love isn't always easily explained by logic. In his theory of the triangular theory of love, Sternberg suggests that love consists of three main components: intimacy, passion, and commitment. These can exist in various combinations, and sometimes we fall in love because of one or more of these elements without being able to fully explain why . Love can also be influenced by unexpected factors like hormones, social environment, or even the enjoyment of certain interactions. In Islam, falling in love is not ...

The Importance of Loving Yourself Loving yourself is not as easy as hating yourself, isn't it?  We hate ourselves more often than we love ourselves, loving ourselves is sometimes not as easy as it is sounds. Indeed, we may face some obstacles when we think about loving ourselves. For example, sometimes we compare ourselves with others. But hey! Do you know the quote that says,  "Do not compare yourself to others. Be like the sun and the moon, and shine when it's your time"?  It means that even the sun and the moon have their own time to shine. So, start believing that the path of every human being varies. Ok, so why do you think Self-Love is so Important?  As far as I’m concerned, self-love is the foundation for helping people stand up for themselves, pursue their dreams, feel proud of what they have achieved, and establish healthy relationships with others.  Self-love is a way to love ourselves by accepting all the conditions within us.  A self-love phase,...
