THE STORY

THE BUTTERFLY AND THE FLOWER
--------------------------------

Once there was a man who asked Allah for a flower... and a butterfly. But instead Allah gave him a cactus... and a caterpillar The man was sad, he didn’t understand why his request was mistaken. Then he thought: not to question.

After some time, the man went to check up on his request that he had left forgotten. To his surprise, from the thorny & ugly cactus a beautiful flower had grown. And the unsightly carterpillar had been transformed into the most beautiful butterfly.

Allah always does things right! His way is ALWAYS the best way, even if to us it seems all wrong. If you asked Allah for one thing & received another, TRUST. You can be sure that He will always give you what you need at the appropriate time.

What you want... is not always what you need! Allah never fails to grant our petitions, so keep on going for Him without doubting or murmuring.

Today’s THORN...
Is tomorrow’s FLOWER!

HEALTH TIPs

Do not drink water immediately after waking up from your sleep, nor should you go outside into the open immediately after waking up. If you are very thirsty, then the best way to drink would be by holding your nose. Take one sip at a time and once you have finished drinking, continue holding your nose for a little while and do not breathe in through your nose.

In the same way, do not drink water immediately after having walked in the heat. This is more so for the person who has suffered a heat stroke. If he drinks a lot of water, he can die immediately. In the same way, water should not be drunk on an empty stomach, nor should one drink water immediately after having passed stool.

A THOUGHT

DISCIPLINE
-----------

He whom thou hast not disciplined when a child
Will not prosper when he becomes a man.
While a stick is green, thou canst bend it as thou listest.
When it is dry, fire alone can make it straight.

~ SADI ~

 
THE SMILE

COUPON
---------

Dispatching her ten-year-old son to pick up a pizza, my sister handed him money and a two-dollar coupon. Later he came home with the pizza, and the coupon. When asked to explain, he replied, "Mom, I had enough money. I didn't need the coupon."
