I always feel honored while participating in engagement challenges as the topic of the contest is mind-blowing and very outstanding the "Silver Lining". Through this topic, I memorize the past days and the tough time of my life. Here is my entry post.

Life is not always smooth nor it can give you happiness all the time. Tough times and troubles are part of life and it's the bravery in hard time how I handle these suffering to be successful in my life.

Although most of the time I was dependent on my parents for financial support and encouragement still there are some worst situations where I realized I am no more. But it was the encouragement of my father who was always with me at any stage and I traversed all the tough times by smiling.

Situation 1: I faced how
I was student of F.sc and suddenly we faced financial issues; my father was unable to support me anymore with my studies but becoming a doctor was my life dream. I talked to my abu about what to do he said just wait for a few days I am here and will stand with till the completion of doctrate degree don't be upset.

I visited a college and request them to give me the chance of teaching if I was successful they can give me a salary otherwise I will work for free. I gave a demo to students of class 10 and it was awesome. They hired me on a normal teaching package. I got a salary in advance and stand with my family to support them. My family was not ready to take this help from me.

But I never loosen my morals and stand with them. In about two months our financial issues were settled down and I admit in doctrate degree. It was the courage of my father that what I am today.

Situation 2 how I handled

I was in doctorate and my thesis work was completed it was sent to USA and Uk for review as per the rules of the university. Unfortunately, more than one year passed but the professor from both universities was not answering nor contact was possible with them.

---

I was much worried as the time frame of my degree was completed and there were no solution except to wait. I have to enroll extra semester with a high fee. I depressed all the the the the time, I came to know i will loses my 5 years of education. My father always encourage to me to not lose hope it's for my betterment just wait and pray to Allah he will bless me and my career will not destroy.

---

I often wept alone that what is my future. Then I started reciting Holy Quran, on the third day, my professor received an email that my thesis has dispatched from both USA and UK. No one can imagine the level of my happiness. My father came and said I told you it was your examination now you got the rewards.

Situation 3 I faced

Then i faced a tougher time of my life I was in job and wanted to transfer my job near to my husband's home. I tried it and visit the no one was listening to me and the lower staff was telling it will be possible only with money or bribery.

---

I was against it and don't want to pay as the transfer was right. More than 6 months passed I was visiting the office but no one was responsible for doing this, the clerk steal my document and asked me to bring it again. It was a tough situation where I was alone fighting as it was not possible to take my father with me as he was ill.

---

The time came I lost hope but no my abbu said I am with you and Allah will help don't worry if it's in your favor Allah will help you. Finally, after two years of traveling and tiring time the day came, got a transfer letter without paying anything to the clerks.

What are the lessons you've learned in that particular situation? Does it affect you mentally or emotionally?

Yeah, I have learned a lot from these situations, no doubt it affected my mental capabilities in those days. I was helpless and courage was getting down with every passing day.

Because when a person sees the toughest time consecutive in life he loosens hope fastest. But in my case, I was not alone and my depression level was less. As my abu stood with me at every step of hardship, never let me alone bear all this.

---

He is no more in this world but always advised me tougher time is your assessment by Allah of how much you are grateful to his mercy he will let you out of his situation, just trust him. And you know Allah helped me ever and I passed all the difficult situations very easily.

---

I learned the lesson that life is not always smooth when we are not close to Allah and busy in our happy life he gave us suffering so that we can realize his blessing and can call him for help. And I noticed when I had worried gave more time to my prayers and Holy Quran to console myself.

How can you share the silver lining with the peoplewho are in difficult situations? What is your outlook for the year 2023? What are your plans for your life this year

I helped them by sharing my own life happened events and told them don't ever lose hope try to find good opportunities in worst of situations. It's just an examination of ourselves as we are so busy in life forget to Almighty. Sometimes they were surprised to listen about my tragedy and said how I might have said i faced it with a courage of new hope and new lights.

For year 2023 ofcourse i have great plan as due to current inflation life is little disturbed and in debt, i have plan to start my business so that i can crossed the toughest time which me and my family is facing. As a person living in rental appartment and facing the current issue of coutry anyone can go in psychology but i will fave this tough time with patience and will grow my online clothing business in a much good way and the bright day is not so far.
