“Marriage is a test in patience and not being married is a test in patience. This world is a test for the pious and impious and a test for the haves and the have nots.”

Fear Allah
“
Mu’aadh bin Jabal reported from the Messenger of Allaah (Sallalaahu Alaihi wa Sallam) that he said:
اتق الله حيثما كنت واتبع السيئة الحسنة تمحها، وخالق الناس بخلق حسن
Fear Allaah wheresoever you may be, and follow up an evil deed with a good deed, it will efface it (the evil deed). And deal with mankind with good manners.

At-Tirmidhee reported this Hadeeth as Hasan, Al-Hakim reports it in al-Mustadrak and states that it meets the condition of Bukhari and Muslim, Adhahabee agreed

Actions of the people of Lut
“It is affirmed from the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) that he said: May Allah curse he who does the action of the people of Lut; may Allaah curse he who does the action of the people of Lut; may Allah curse the one who does the action of the people of Lut.” (Graded Saheh by Al-Albaanee in Saheeh At-Targheeb wat-Tarheeb)
Imaam Ibn Al-Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah, may Allaah have mercy upon him, said, commenting upon this Hadeeth: “There has not come from him (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) a curse upon the fornicator three times within one Hadeeth. He cursed a group of the people of major sins, but it did not go beyond one curse (in a single Hadeeth). However, he (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) repeated the curse three times for the one who does the action of the people of Lut.”

The Ruling of the Prayer in which Tight Fitted Clothing is Worn
Umm Ayyoob said: ‘This question was put to the Shaykh: Is it permissible for the woman to pray in tight fitted clothing?’
Question: ‘If the intent by the word ‘permissible’ you mean is the prayer accepted? Then apparently the prayer is accepted. And if the intent of the word ‘permissible’ you mean that it is no problem for her to pray like that, then that is a problem, because as you know that from the conditions of dress by which one must cover the ‘Awraah (the private area) regarding a man let alone women that it should not show the size of the ‘Awraah.
However, we do not have any evidence to say that prayer in this condition is invalid. But there is no doubt that with the second meaning that it would be okay for her to pray wearing tight fitted clothing, then this is not allowed, as for the prayer then it is accepted.’
‘It is necessary that she wears above her clothing the like of an ‘Abayyaa, wrapping sheet worn for prayer and things similar to that.’
By Shaykh Muhadith Muhammad Nasir- Deen Al-Albaani
[‘Various women’s issues from the Fiqh of ‘Allaama al-Albani (Rahimullaah)’ compiled by Umm Ayyoob p.59]

Don't be extreme
The Messenger of Allah, sallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam said: “Religion is very easy and whoever overburdens himself in his religion will not be able to continue in that way. So you should not be extremists, but try to be near to perfection and receive the good tidings that you will be rewarded.”
(Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 2, Number 38)
