Today a sister messaged me apologizing that she still hasn't listened to the voicenotes that I left for her. We communicate often and I honestly didn't even remember what I had said in those messages.
Reflecting on this occurance reminded me of these verses. How quickly I had forgotten what I had *intentionally* recorded - how will I feel when I have to confront what was being recorded in my book of deeds while I was unmindful? May Allah forgiv...See more

I came across this ayah today while I was reading the Quran and it had me thinking. Ultimately we will all experience death. It’s a given and that this is the only permanent truth we are certain of. Here Allah reveals how we actually do experience death on a daily basis. A light death in our sleep.
So then it got me thinking. How should I focus to end my day?
I should work to end my day as how I’d like the end of my life to be. Because I would...See more

This verse oscillates between fear and hope. On one hand, Allah has likened sleep to death, and awakening to life. Allah has also said, Whatever you do in the day (i.e., during life), Allah knows it all. From this perspective, This verse is, in fact, a rehearsal for the Day of Judgment, when human beings will be resurrected and their deeds will be laid bare before them. They will realize that every small and great action is within Allah's knowled...See more

﷽
Each night, as darkness descends,
and the world drifts into slumber,
Allah SWT calls back our souls,
to the realm beyond our conscious reach.
Even the mightiest among us,
those who have power and influence over nations,
cannot defy this innate need for rest.
No fortress,
no wealth,
no earthly authority
can shield us
from the certainty of surrendering
to the divine decree each night.
Then, with each morning,
we are granted a new lea...See more

In the Name of Allah the Most Merciful, the Most Gracious.
Every time you will read the Qur'an you will discover something new, something that will humble you or sometimes you will discover the such obvious but you have never stared it straight in the face until you reflect upon the Qur'an.

I'll admit that one thing I would like to work on is thinking more deeply about Quran, I try to make it a habit to read something everyday but often it becomes just that- reading not reflecting. Today, however I thought of something interesting when reading ayahs 59 and 60 of Al-An'am. In ayah 59, Allah mentions that He *Alone* has the keys to the unseen, no one knows them except Him. When you think of a key, whether it be for a...See more
