Next day rejected. But I actually expected a rejection even though it logically looked like success.
I am used to it.
My purpose on the Dunya was not the career.
But perhaps my behaviour and resilience throughout it.
Perhaps overconfident. Perhaps someone better. Perhaps I am not the their type. Perhaps hated for. Allah didn't allow this for me. That's fine I will carry on.
The struggle to get married
The struggle to get a job
The struggle to be normal
To build a bank balance
The dunya is the place of all test.
Why am I doing all this for when the ultimate interview needs the ultimate preparation for every breathing moment I am. I am choosing to do what will be for me and against me at the interview and meeting.
Ultimately, it is Allah's mercy that I will need.
Before entering the interview I came across this verse:
43:52
أَمْ أَنَا۠ خَيْرٌۭ مِّنْ هَـٰذَا ٱلَّذِى هُوَ مَهِينٌۭ وَلَا يَكَادُ يُبِينُ ٥٢
Am I not better than this nobody who can hardly express himself?[1]
— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, The Clear Quran
[1] Moses used to have a speech impediment. But when he became a prophet he prayed to Allah to help him speak clearly, and his prayer was answered (see 20:25-36).
I read this and thought, Allah please make my speech clear in the interview. My opening sentences to a question were quite stumbly, but soon after almost immediately my answers became very clear, or so I thought. I tried my best. Made dua. Got rejected, oh well. Off to another position in the Dunya.
