وَإِذْ قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةً ۖ قَالُوا أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَاءَ وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ ۖ قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ
سورة البقرة 30
"And when thy Lord said to the angels, I will make a land in the land as a caliph, saying, I will make those who spoil it and shed blood, and we will praise you, and sanctify you. He said, I know what you do not know."
What I learned:
⇢ Sometimes in life, things will happen that we can't understand. And it's normal to feel confused or want to understand the reason and wisdom behind it
⇢ Asking why is part of our nature but there are two ways to ask:
1- "why me God?/ this shouldn't be happening!?" this why the question comes from a place of ingratitude and rejecting the decree of Allah.
2- The way the prophets and angles asked God when they didn't understand something... by asking him WHILE declaring his perfection and their gratitude and praise. So it comes from a place of being humble and wanting him to shed light on what we cant, but we know whatever he does is flawless and thank you.
⇢ God sees good in us. That's why he created us. Because He knows the good that some of us will choose to do.
