Starting with the name of Allah Almighty Who's Most Merciful and Most Loving
Peace and Blessings of Allah Almighty be upon our beloved prophets, especially Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W), their noble companions and all the true beleivers present in this world or the other. Ameenn.
وَ الَّذِیۡنَ صَبَرُوا ابۡتِغَآءَ وَجۡہِ رَبِّہِمۡ وَ اَقَامُوا الصَّلٰوۃَ وَ اَنۡفَقُوۡا مِمَّا رَزَقۡنٰہُمۡ سِرًّا وَّ عَلَانِیَۃً وَّ یَدۡرَءُوۡنَ بِالۡحَسَنَۃِ السَّیِّئَۃَ اُولٰٓئِکَ لَہُمۡ عُقۡبَی الدَّارِ ﴿ۙ۲۲﴾
" And those who are patient, seeking the countenance of their Lord, and establish prayer and spend from what We have provided for them secretly and publicly and prevent evil with good - those will have the good consequence of [this] home - "
(Surat-ur-Raad ayat no.22)
AslamoAlaikum!
If you haven't prayed yet, then I humbly request you to pray before reading this because your connection with Allah Almighty is much more important. Remember, Salat is obligatory, this is not.

It had been two months, till the day Ilham got the proposal. The things were becoming so blessful to him. It was like his good days had started, and his miseries had ended.
He had to face some difficulties in the start, but later he learned and felt very comfortable and happy with the kind staff of the office.
He knew he wanted to earn for himself, he wanted to earn a name.
He wanted to make this talent a strong point of him.
He always kept his Tawaqqul on Allah Almighty and did his best.
He had been earning now, and it was a huge happiness for him.
H
e was also now living in an apartment close to the office, but used to visit time to time to Inspiration House, a place that felt like his home.
He had been taking gifts to the people in Inspiration House as much as he could, and felt like he was visiting home whenver he was there.
It was around mid afternoon when Ilham was playing with a boy of Inspiration House; when a member of the Inspiration House came to him and asked him to come out of the room.
Ilham was sure very confused, he ruffled the boy's hair and left him to play with other boys.
When he stepped out, he closed the door to block the loud voices coming from the room as he turned and asked the man about the matter.
"Ilham. Someone has come to see you".
To say Ilham was surprised would be an understatement. He couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"Are you sure? Are you really sure that they didn't get the name wrong?", Ilham asked the man hesitantly but still there was some kind of hope in his heart.
"Yes, I am sure. Ilham Kashif. It's your complete name, right?",
the man continued as he looked at Ilham's surprised face,
"there was a man, he seemed very impatient to see you. According to him, he saw you coming here, and wanted to meet you. He seemed very impatient."
