REFELECTION

Standing Firm, Even When Itโ€™s Quiet

When Prophet Musa (AS) stood firm at the Red Sea, it wasnโ€™t with an army โ€” it was with faith. Sometimes, staying grounded in your values during everyday life feels smallโ€ฆ but it's anything but.
โ€œIndeed, with hardship comes ease.โ€ (Qurโ€™an 94:6)

๐Ÿ’ก DO:
Pick one principle you want to stay firm on this week โ€” kindness to someone difficult, guarding your tongue, making time for prayer, or refusing to let stress dictate your energy.

Stand tall in that intention. Even quiet consistency echoes in the heavens.

Thatโ€™s what weโ€™re here for ๐Ÿ’ฌ
