The Shipwreck

The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a
small, uninhabited island ....

He prayed feverishly for Allah to rescue him,and every
day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed
forthcoming.

Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut
out of driftwood to protect him from the elements and
to store his few possessions.

But then one day, after scavenging for food,he arrived
home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke
rolling up to the sky. The worst had
happened;everything was lost. He was stunned with
grief and anger.

"Allah, how could you do this to me!" he cried.
(Comment; Plenty of people use such statement ---
think again you should never qestion Allah nor object
to his willing)

Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the
sound of a ship that was approaching the island. It
had come to rescue him.

"How did you know I was here?" asked the weary man of
his rescuers. "We saw your smoke signal," they
replied.

It is easy to get discouraged when things are going
badly.
But we shouldn't lose heart, because Allah is at work
in our lives, even in the midst of pain and suffering.

Remember, next time your little hut is burning to the
ground--it just may be a smoke signal that summons The
Grace of Allah.

Pass this on. You never know who may be in need of
this today.
