Once you've finished attempting to answer the questions of life, you will notice new questions will arise. Instead, learn to accept what befalls you. Know it is better for you. And repeat: "Allah has decreed (this) and He does whatever He wills."
Abu Hurayrah (ra) reports that Allah's Messenger (saw) said, "The strong believer is more loved by Allah than the weak believer, but in both there is good. Be zealous for what will benefit you. Seek help from Allah the Mighty and Majestic and do not become incapacitated. If something afflicts you, do not say: "If only I had done such and such" but say, "Allah has decreed (this) and He does whatever He wills." Indeed saying "if" opens up the doorway of Shaytaan's handiwork." (Muslim)
Once this is firmly believed, all questions will disappear, and all answers will be staring right back at you. The choice is yours. So accept what befalls you. Know that acceptance is the first step to success. Being in denial will one set you back and confuse you. Indeed, Allah gives whats best for us, but we are impatient and ignorant.
─F.D
