I knew I was drifting. I could feel it—moving farther and farther away from the center, lost in a haze I couldn’t shake off. The fog surrounded me, thick and unyielding, pulling me deeper. I tried to find a way out, but the more I tried, the heavier it became.
Time and again, Allah reminds me of how this world can consume me, pulling me away from Him. And each time, He shows me—clearly, unmistakably—that I am not meant for this world. He pull...See more

As I finished my Salah, I pondered: How I used to pray in the past? Why did I view prayer as a burden, a responsibility to escape? Why were my prayers so ineffective, my recitations so passionless? Why did my worship feel reduced to a brief, mechanical ritual, lacking depth and meaning? Why did my recitations remain superficial, merely repeating Arabic phrases without understanding or passion? Why, as a Muslim, did I take so long to understand I...See more

In the Name of Allah, the most Merciful, the Especially Merciful,
If we truly believe in the Hereafter, then surely we will be preparing for it; through both repentance and the deeds which Allah loves.
It’s not too late to start preparing. .

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Especially Merciful,
Perhaps you have lost a parent;
Perhaps you have lost a child;
Perhaps you have lost a friend;
Or perhaps you have lost your spouse.
When the days go by in the blink of an eye;
When you scroll through your phone and you see your child ever so small and you look across the room and see how tall this same child has become!
And your own pictures, just a few years ago you looked so ...See more

Hope rises in Palestine’s skies,
Amidst the tears, the endless cries.
We stay strong and bold,
Ignoring all of the lies told.
I have HOPE!
Olive trees stand tall and proud,
Peace wins above the crowd.
Through the rubble, through the pain,
Hope shines bright like morning rain.
I have HOPE!
Hold tight to your dreams,
Of courage, fierce and bold,
For in every tear and sigh,
Hope will never die.
From mountains high to seas so so wide,
Hope and jus...See more

Inspired by Sister Razia reflection !
Believing in the afterlife is one thing, but truly internalising it is another. It's not as easy as it may seem. Even Prophet Ibrahim (AS) asked Allah to show him how He gives life to the dead (Qur’an 2:260).
Though he already believed, he sought a deeper, experiential certainty. This shows that true conviction isn't just about knowledge, it’s about experiencing the reality of what we believe, especially wh...See more

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Especially Merciful,
I used to walk this earth, as though this was everything, the parents I knew I thought were everlasting, I thought the world was a nice and calm place.
As we grew, we found loss, we understood that we will always have to live amongst injustice, sometimes some confusion, sometimes a pettiness and even little self worth. I could not keep up with the world and everytime I tried it ...See more
