“No amount of guilt can change the past and no amount of worrying can change the future. Go easy on yourself, for the outcome of all affairs is determined by Allah’s decree. If something is meant to go elsewhere, it will never come your way but if it is yours by destiny, then it cannot flee from you” [Umar Ibn al-Khattab]
Sheikh Zahir Mahmood explains the danger of people that claim “Only i am on the haq”.

The Angel of the Mountains said, “O Muhammad, order what you wish. If you like, I will let the mountains fall on them.” The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “No, I hope that Allah will bring from their descendants people who will worship Allah alone without associating partners with Him.”
Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due and when you judge between people to judge with justice. Excellent is that which Allah instructs you. Indeed, Allah is ever Hearing and Seeing.
Surah An-Nisā’ (4:58)
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) quoted God as saying: “My love is obliged to those who love each other for My sake, who sit with each other for My sake, who visit each other for My sake, and who give to each other generously for My sake.”
مَّا أَصَابَكَ مِنْ حَسَنَةٍ فَمِنَ اللَّهِ ۖ وَمَا أَصَابَكَ مِن سَيِّئَةٍ فَمِن نَّفْسِكَ ۚ
“Whatever of good befalls you, it is from Allah; and whatever of ill befalls you, it is from yourself.”
And Why Shouldn’t The Likes Of Abdullah Ibn Umar RA Cry On Hearing A Hadis Of Rasulullah (PBUH)? Because He (PBUH) Himself Says: That The All Mighty Allah Is Saying: Majestic, Pride Is My Garment, Is My Robe. And Greatness, Bigness, Loftiness, Splendour, This Is My Garment And Whoever Competes With Me For Any One Of These Things Then I Will Not Look At Who He Is. I Will Throw Him In The Fire Of Hell, Why? He Is The All Mighty Allah, No God Has The Right To Be Worshipped But He, He Is The Knower Of The Seen And The Unseen, The Most Merciful, The Most Kind, He Is The All Mighty Allah, No God Has The Right To Be Worshipped Except Allah, He Is The King, The King Of All Kings, He Is The Pure, He Is The Holy, Free From Defects, He Is The Watcher Of Every Subjects, He Is The Giver Of Peace, He Is The Giver Of Security, He Is The All Mighty Allah, He Is The Compeller, He Is The Supreme, Glory Is To Allah, Allah Is High And Above All Those That Who Associate As Partners With Him, He Is The All Mighty Allah, He Is The Creator, He Is The Maker, He Is The Fashioner, He Is The Bestower, And The Giver Of Cause, To Allah Belongs The Beautiful Names And All Those Within The Heaven And The Earth, Glorify The All Mighty Allah And Recognise His Greatness, He Is The All Mighty And He Is The All Wise.
And those whose scales are light are the people who put themselves to ruin – the recompense of the injustice they used to do to Our signs.
[Aa`raf 7:9]
O you who have believed, if you fear Allah , He will grant you a criterion and will remove from you your misdeeds and forgive you. And Allah is the possessor of great bounty.
Surah Al-‘Anfāl (8:29)
The hardships that we suffer in life are means by which our sins are pardoned. These difficulties can take many forms, like sickness, financial misfortune, or the loss of loved ones. Through these trials, Allah grants us atonement for our sins and raises our spiritual status.
Allah tries those of His servants He deems best to test. Consider Job عليه السلام about whom Allah Almighty says:
