When a Tahajjud Prayer Almost Changed Everything

As an engineer, I recently had an interview for a dream position at an aerospace company. The night before, I prayed Tahajjud, asking Allah to help me and grant me the job if it was best for me. Alhamdulillah, two days later, I got the offer-a Level 3 role with almost double my current salary. I was overjoyed and shared the news with my parents, siblings, and a close friend, feeling truly blessed. After accepting, I had to complete a background check and a drug test. My background check passed, but when I went for the oral swab test, the facility smelled strongly of marijuana. I didn't think much of it since I don't use drugs. A week later, I got a call saying I tested positive for marijuana. I was shocked; the only time I'd ever tried it was one hit from a friend's vape months earlier, and from my research, oral tests usually only detect it for a few days. I asked about retesting, but the company's policy was strict: a positive result meant the offer was automatically canceled, and I couldn't reapply for two years. I even paid for a re-analysis, but the lab claimed they never got the payment, even though my tracking showed it was delivered. In the end, the offer was rescinded. It felt like a huge opportunity vanished overnight. I wondered if sharing the news early attracted the evil eye, or if Allah was protecting me from something unseen. Either way, I remind myself of what we believe: what Allah has decreed for you will never miss you, and what misses you was never meant for you. Alhamdulillah, I still have my current job, but this really tested my faith and patience. Has anyone else faced something similar where a long-awaited blessing suddenly slipped away?
