The Prophet (saw) said, "Men will appear near the end of time who seek the worldly life with religion, confusing the people. Their skin is as soft as sheep, their words are sweeter than sugar, yet their hearts are like the hearts of wolves."

And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in..

Beauty fades, character remains✨

When you are someone who doesn't have love for this dunya, you just don't understand what's the ramadan and eid rush all about. Like when u go outside u see people rushing before iftar and rushing the day before eid.
And u can just thought to yourself that how we wish we have the same rush for salah, for the preparation of the hereafter.
It's sad that it has become the month of feasting instead of fast. May Allah grant us all proper understanding, may He grant us all the excitement to prepare for the hereafter as well. Allahuma ameen.

Friday reflections🌻

The way we bring ourselves to the public is always a reflection of our tarbiyyah.

a place of all sins; the display of women, losing of haya, lying, deception, and everything you can name.

And I am talking about tarbiyyah in this matter because I realized how as a women, whether married or not, we have to strive in educating ourselves about Islam because the way men can act so disrespectful of women regardless of them being covered is clearly a failure to educate them and a manifestation of lack of ‘adab and bad akhlaq.

The Islam of us women will reflect on our offspring inevitably. It will reflect on both the parents generally, but we know how big our role is in the tarbiyyah of children at home. We can never teach something we do not know. How do we teach them to pray if we ourselves do not know how to? How do we teach ‘adab if we do not have them? How do we tarbiyyah our children if we do not have it?

Our failure to tarbiyyah ourselves will have repercussions of a failure to tarbiyyah our own children in the future. We do not want to raise men who cat-calls to even the Muslimāt. We do not want to raise men who do not lower their gaze. We do not want to raise children who disrespect women and people in general, especially those who appear to be striving in the path of Islam. This is nothing but a behavior of a jahil person.

Let's not be the kind of mothers whom we once questioned for not being able to tarbiyyah their children and teach them ‘adab and good akhlaq. May Allah count us among the sālihāt who would give birth to sālihūn of children. Allahumma āmīn.

𝐇𝐎𝐖 𝐈 𝐖𝐈𝐒𝐇..

How I wish I am as pious as they think of me..
How I wish I am as righteous as they think of me..
How I wish I am as strong as they think of me..
How I wish I am forbearing as they think of me..
How I wish I am as they thought I am.

It's scares me to death knowing that they think so much good of me. That they see me as someone "they wanted to become". I fear that some would make me as an example and someone to look up to. For Wallahil adheem, I know I don't deserve it. What you see is just how Allah is covering my sins. You only see what I wanted you to see, but no one knows me more than Allah knows me.And that fears me to death.

Many times, I cry at night, alone, while asking my Rabb,
"Ya Rabb, how am I doing? How do you think of me? How do you see me? Ya Rabbi, I wanted to know, how do you feel about me? For these admirations I get from people is nothing without yours. I'd rather be hated by many but loved by You, rather than loved by many but hated by You. It's only Your love that I yearn."

My heart trembles knowing the idea of Riyaa. I fear that I get overwhelmed by praises, and forget my purposes. Knowing that I am a human too, I am scared of what it could do to me. I am scared of being seen as a holy one, because I know I am far from it. My heart trembles when being praised, because Wallahi I know I don't deserve it.

“𝘖𝘩 𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘩, 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘮𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘮𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘥𝘰 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘮𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘥𝘰 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘮𝘦."

Dearest soul,

If your heart throbs, because you chose Allāh, then you won the battle. If you cry, because you chose Allāh, your tears aren't wasted. If your whole being hurts, because you chose Allāh, your pain is valued to Allāh.

Nothing will change even if you listen to the whispers of your heart to go back to what is not loved to Allāh. Nothing will sate the heart, but obedience to Allāh. Nothing will give you ultimate happiness, but forbidding yourself to go beyond the hudūd of Allāh.

Oh dearest soul, every step that you take away from what is harām is a step towards His love. Know that if you walk towards Him, He runs towards you. You will not throb out of your obedience to Him except that He expiate some of your sins.

Hush now, dearest soul. The Rabb of your qalb will grant its whispers the soonest. One day, you will smile triumphantly, because you won against your desires. One day, the Rabb of your qalb will return back what you had to let go in the best version.

Dearest soul, strengthen your Tawakkul to Him, and keep making du'ā. Rely upon the Al—Wadūd, whose Love is greater than the love you have in your heart, and whose Love is greater than the pain that you carry in your heart.

Until the time that you utter your triumphant 'Alhamdulillāh,' because Allāh finally gave you the whispers of your qalb in a setting that is loved to Him, keep on falling in love to Him. Keep on working to be close to Him, and keep on praising Him for giving you a pain that you may be having hard time in dealing with, but is still bearable to you.

Oh dearest soul, hush now. Hush now, because Allāh is with the broken heart.

— Veiled Poet | Hush now

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “The intelligent one is he who overcomes his inner self (nafs), and works for what comes after death. And the stupid one is he who allows his nafs to pursue its desires, and has deluded hopes about Allah” (Tirmidhī).✨

The Story of the people of the cave – A Trial of Faith

This story is about a number of young men who were driven out of their homes because they believed in Allah. They ended up in a cave where Allah made them sleep for many years (309 lunar years which is 300 solar years). When they woke up they felt they had slept for a day or half a day. One of them went to the town to get some food disguising himself thinking that the people would recognise and harm him. Only to find himself amongst a different people. The people of the town were amazed at his appearance of this man and the old coins he was using. The story shows us how Allah protects the righteous who believe in Him no matter how hard their situation is. The Biblical version of the story is called ‘The Seven Sleepers of Ephesus”, however, the Qur’an doesn’t mention the number of those who were in the cave.
