- "Softness is not weakness. It takes courage to stay delicate in a world this cruel."
- Perhaps to deal with dilemmas in life is to learn to prioritize between 'what is it that I am going to be held accountable for' and differentiate it from other challenges. Such is the way one can attain peace of heart.

'Somewhere along the line, you lose the desire to desire. A point where whatever comes your way is welcomed and what doesn't is least bothered about. Maybe this very feeling is the objective of our trials; to take away that yearning for this dunya from our hearts.
Maybe this is the end of it all....'Alhamdulillah, maybe?

"Sometimes we just have to stop pretending to be strong. Admit our weaknesses and seek our strength in Him. Rejuvenate our heart through prayers for prayers are the cure for all illnesses."
Dua
"Sometimes the power of Dua is such that it flies through the skies faster than light, where the cries of the heart are calmed before the very next heartbeat, and that tranquility is given to the desperate caller from the One who is As-Sami', the One Who hears all.
All this, before the caller has even dropped their hands from it's raised position. SubhanAllah!" :')
Prioritize!

You Are Powerful.. NOT.
You Are Powerful Its the time where one in every five person shares a feel good quote on social media and one of it being “You are powerful. More than you know it”. Even muslims, sadly don’t realize what they’re … Continue reading

When dua isn’t about what we want..
We are often told that reciting ayat ul kursi every night has an angel protecting us until we wake up; Or reciting it after every prayer makes nothing come in our path to Jannah except death; And when we make … Continue reading

Being with Allah SWT
Everything in this universe obeys Allah’s command. ‘وَلِلَّهِ يَسْجُدُ مَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ مِن دَابَّةٍ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ وَهُمْ لَا يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ’ And to Allah prostrates whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth of creatures, and the … Continue reading

Of Being Muslim, and Idol-worship?
Growing up, I’ve always loved the story of Ibrahim AS. It somehow felt like his story was meant to be taught to me at that age. A story filled with lots of magical happenings, picturing the moon, stars, sun, fire, … Continue reading

No one would ever enter an art museum and claim that the pieces of art came into being ‘on their own’. Every masterpiece has an artist’s name labelled beneath it, isn’t it? How then can one deny the existence of a creator for … Continue reading

When someone so close to Allah is depressed, how do you soothe them?
‘Tired, depressed, empty’; the sort of words I hear from a beautiful (inside out) practicing Muslimah going thru trials upon trials in life. I close my teary filled eyes, feeling helpless. How can I help this girl? In the darkness … Continue reading
