Subhanallah, ramadan has passed by and things went back to normal. I wonder where all that extra time that we had to prey qiam, or prey taraweeh or read quran everyday went??? once again we’re back to the busyness and forgetfulness of life…..
Where did Ramadan Go?
SubhanAllahi wa bihamdik, subhanAllahil adheem.
I can’t get over how fast this month flew by, and how fast our lives are changing. The reality and challenge of glittering world is still tempting. May Allah give us the strength to become His devoted worshipers forever.
hold on tight!
“Then those who believe in Allah, and hold fast to Him,―
soon will He admit them to Mercy and Grace from Himself
and guide them to Himself by a straight Way.“
An Nisaa: 175
TASK FORCE
lol…Ok so everytime I look at the blog, you guys are writing very insightful, beneficial mumbo jumbo
and I am soooooooo not like that. I just write on the blog to fulfill the promise I made (I know….sounds like a burden….well it is)
loool…It’s kinda too early for me but here is why I decided to write—
I got this Super COOL e-mail from Muhammed Al-Shareef about the last 10 days and I think I forwarded it to y’all but here it is again:
DO THIS ASAP Inshallah
Step 1: Go somewhere really beautiful, where no one can disturb you
Step 2: Imagine Allah says to you, “Ask whatever you wish and I shall grant it to you.” Think of everything good you would ask for from this life and the next.
Step 3: After thinking of everything you can, sit down and write it out.
Step 4: Pick 5 things, your favorites, and consistently ask Allah for these 5 every night in the last ten. Your dua will be guaranteed to have landed on Laylatul-Qadr! How cool is that?
So LET’S DO IT YEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH—–loool, I am trying to be optimistic but it’s not working
Patience
Salamu alikkum wa rahmatulah, hope ramadan is treating everyone well, or better yet, everyone is treating ramadan well. A while back we talked about patience and how to be patient. Although i don’t think I can completely understand or can apply it, I think sometimes being patient is being sad or being in pain or being afraid and continuing with life while we’re certain that it is best and that it will pass with the blessing of Allah subhanaho wa ta’alla. May Allah give us the courage and strength to be patient and the wisdom to know how to do it.
A Guidance & Instruction for those who fear Allah!
“Here is a plain statement to men, a guidance and instruction to those who fear Allah!
So lose not heart, nor fall into despair: for ye must gain mastery if ye are true in Faith.
.هَـٰذَا بَيَانٌ۬ لِّلنَّاسِ وَهُدً۬ى وَمَوۡعِظَةٌ۬ لِّلۡمُتَّقِينَ
وَلَا تَهِنُواْ وَلَا تَحۡزَنُواْ وَأَنتُمُ ٱلۡأَعۡلَوۡنَ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤۡمِنِين
(Al-e Imran, 138-139)
10 Days GONE???
Salamu Alikum….
Sorry I haven’t been writing on the blog even though it was my idea to write daily (obviously that didn’t work for me) but I have been having trouble with finding a specific time to write on the blog…My comp. is in the basement & I am lazy as anything to go downstairs
Alhamdulilah, asamaharaha & Little8opeep have been doing an AWESOME job keeping us up-to-date (we’re still missing someone) so Jazakumullahu Khairan
Anywho, My Ramadan has been a Roller Coaster Ride so far….A good day vs. a bad one but Alhamdulilah- I realized that my Escape is in Reading Quran….I could be having the worst day ever but when I sit down to read my Quran, All my distress, anxiety, and problems just disappear so Alhamdulilah, I found MY ESCAPE & I love it
My Goals:
1. Alhamdulilah, I am slacking off lately but my sunnahs are on & off so starting tomorrow inshallah, I will make sure they are ON…
2. Quran Reading is FANTASTIC- Alhamdulilah but my Memorization is sooooooooo Down the Hill—My memory stick is running out
I’ll make sure to write on the Blog more often….I apologize for being lazy & my light has been off lately but tomorrow is another day inshallah & may Allah make it brighter than all the days before it
Love you All for the Sake of the One who controls our Hearts
InDisguise
Subhanallah, the first ten days of mercy are over. I was thinking about how the mercy of allah comes in all forms and shapes. We look at good things as being mercy, and bad things as tests or punishments. But often there is more mercy in bad events then in good. Often by being oppressed we learn to become victorious and even more we learn to give victory to others. By making mistakes we need to be forgiven and as a result learn to forgive others. By being broken and weak, we become merciful on others who are broken as well. And as we loose many blessings in and around us, we gain an appreciation and taste a happiness in many other blessings that were once un-noticed.
