Destruction Before the Day of Resurrection
Al-Isra (The Journey by Night) 17:58
وَإِن مَّن قَرْيَةٍ إِلاَّ نَحْنُ مُهْلِكُوهَا قَبْلَ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ أَوْ مُعَذِّبُوهَا عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا كَانَ ذَلِك فِي الْكِتَابِ مَسْطُورًا
And [bear in mind:] there is no community which We will not destroy before the Day of Resurrection, or chastise {rebuke or reprimand severely} [even earlier, if it proves sinful] with suffering severe: all this is laid down in Our decree.
O My Creator! grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things that I can, and wisdom to know the difference.
The world isn’t perfect, and some days it wears you down. You can either accept that, and face it, and be a help to others instead of a hindrance.
Embrace failure. Missteps and roadblocks are inevitable but are ultimately an opportunity to learn, pivot, and go after your goals with new perspective.
