Last Tuesday i learnt a lesson
actually had an experience if you put it better
i had my driving assessment from galadari..there were 4 of us for the test
the examiner told me to drive first
and then it all started...she pointed out all the little mistakes i was making...which actually is her job...but like every other person i was annoyed to get all my mistakes pointed out...even though she was doing that for my own good...and the way she was commenting...i was sure i was gonna fail...even though my mistakes werent big....in my mind i'd just set the believe that if i drive well why would Allah (SWT) cause her to fail me
but i got dejected and upset and annoyed....all before getting my results....she eventually asked me to park and told the next girl to start driving....even with her, the same issues were there we both almost made the same small mistakes...while the second girl was preparing for her driving...my eyes fell on the assessment paper which was mine btw....on which the examiner had written 14 classes more
and i was like she really did fail me....i was like soo upset....and then the third girl came to drive....she was small and the examiner was pretty intimidating,....and with examiner constantly pointing out her mistakes the poor lady got freaked out....so intead of taking a test the examiner was softly explaining to her her mistakes..all the while explaining us too....and then was the fourth girls chance who drove pretty well except for a slip up....
when we came back to the institute and shuffled behind our examiner to get our results...she asked us to wait for a while...while we were waiting out side...i started to cool off some steam by talking about how a friend of mine told me to opt for a male examiner and i didnt listen ...and how this female examiner is very strict and she failed me and blah blah blah...i also said that this time I WILL take a male examiner....
and then she called me in
and she had PASSED me
i was like pass???!!!
i asked her thrice....and she was like fine ill fail u
i was like Alhumdulilah!
she actually passed me....its like i made a few small errors which obv are not that important in the assessment but ARE important in the final...hence she gave me the fourteen classes....in ordoer to polish myself on those mistakes....and at that moment of time i was soo ashamed...may Allah forgive me...seriously
so many times in the heat of the moment we assume things so quickly rather than wait patiently for the results...for if Allah (SWT) thinks it is right for you why wouldnt HE get you through it...and if HE doesnt...there must be some good ordained in it for us....
There are so many Ayahs in the Quraan which tell us to turn towards Allah with Sabr....but we humans...Sabr is something which we can have but we do not think of it as important at times when it is...
never assume anything on your own...wait for it to happen...and if it doesnt....Allah has in it...something better for us only!
Alhumdulilah!
today i thank Allah (SWT) for the air conditioner which keeps us cool during this heat!
it is soo freaking hot here !!!
