🏵️🏵️🏵️ Dear kay, I would like to thank you for your thought-provoking article, "You Have to Develop Thick Skin When It Comes to Your Greatness." Your words resonated deeply with me, and I must say that it's not every day that I come across a piece that so eloquently conveys the importance of perseverance and resilience.
In Islam, we believe that patience (sabr) is a vital virtue that is essential for spiritual growth and success. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "Patience is from Allah and it is a blessing, and patience is a light on the path of Allah." (Al-Tirmidhi) Similarly, your article highlights the importance of developing a thick skin, which is akin to cultivating patience.
As Muslims, we are reminded that we will face trials and tribulations in our lives. However, we are also encouraged to persevere and remain steadfast in our faith. The Quran reminds us, "O you who have believed, be patient and endure what is [ordered] for you and fear not [that of] Allah, and fear not [that of] people." (Al-Imran 3:200)
I would like to offer a call to action from an Islamic perspective. I urge you to take your message of resilience and perseverance to those who may need it most. Share your article with others who are struggling to find their footing, and offer them words of encouragement and support. Remember that every person has a unique struggle, and by offering your guidance, you can help them develop the thick skin they need to overcome their challenges.
May Allah guide us all towards patience, perseverance, and ultimate success.
🏵️🏵️🏵️
