Allah's Gift

I noticed this posted on the wall of my mum's office (which has been vacant for a long time since someone prefers to stay at home with her grandchildren), hihi.

anyway, the poem goes like this:

Allah knows what's best for us
so why should we complain?
we always want the sunshine
but He knows there must be rain

We always want laughter
and the merriment of cheer
but our hearts will lose their tenderness
if we never shed a tear

Allah tests us often
with sufferings and with sorrow
He tests us not to punish us
but to help us meet tomorrow

For growing trees are strengthened
if they can withstand the storm
and the sharpness of the chisel
gave the marble its grace and form

Allah tests us often
and for every pain [He gives us]
provided we are patient
is followed by rich gain

So whenever we feel
that everything is wrong
it is just Allah's way
to make our spirit strong

unfortunately i can't trace the source of this masterpiece. but i gotta say, he/she did an awesome job!!!
