Salaam Alaikum

"No fatigue, illness, anxiety, sorrow, harm or sadness afflicts any Muslim, even to the extent of a thorn pricking him, without Allah wiping out his sins by it." - Muhammad Salallahu Alayhi wa Salaam

Do not give up.
Hold fast to your faith as a Muslim and you will succeed insha'Allah

I'm learning...ALHAMDULLILAH

AsSalaamu Alaikum

I was in a rut for a while...guess what brought me up?

1. I spent time in the Masjid.
2. My body mind and soul was fed with the warmth and purity of Allah's (SWT) house.
3. I recollected my knowledge, picked up the pieces of my iman and planted new seeds of knowledge/reaffirmed old ones.....
4. By spending time with good companions.

Simile: Iman is like a roller coaster...and that is true...but do you know what keeps us on the tracks?

ASHADU AN LA ILAHA IL ALLAH WA ASHADU ANNA MUHAMMADUN RASOOL ALLAH.

Jazak Allah Khair for reading.
All praises are due to ALLAH (SWT) and any mistakes are mine.

Masha'ALLAH!

Can't breathe?

AaSalaamu Alaikum everyone,

Shaytaan's fingers squeeze our necks so slowly that we don't notice until we feel your face burning and oxygen levels depleting...


Please, for the sake of Allah(SWT) as advice to myself first--


Guard your salat with voluntary and sunnah prayers. Pray nighttime (tahajjud) prayers..Fill your head with knowledge that forces you to be responsible and not ignorant of your obligations as a Muslim insha'Allah..And last but not least,
purify your intention in action, speech, and thought.

Enough mothering...I will write more soon insha'Allah..
I love you all for the sake of Allah (SWT).

Asia!!!

AsSalaamu Aleikum bloggy readers!
As you can see I am certainly in a more energetic mood today.
I am in Asia to visit family and already I've been subjected to many things that challenge my religious values. In the bigger picture, there are many smaller pictures. The chinese family unit cannot function efficiently if it is not held together by pride and respect. Family pride is fed by respect and submission from the younger individuals. By obeying and pleasing older family members, we respect them but we also feed their pride. Of course the intention is the most important issue here, but the lines are indeed hard to draw when your intention is to do something to please Allah (SWT) and the outcome will be quite muddled.
My dua'a these days has become one that asks for more strength and knowledge to walk the straight path and forgiveness for ignorant things I have done intentionally.
I will update again tomorrow insha'Allah!!!!
Hope you are well,

Interesting conversations

AsSalaamu Aleikum my dear friends,



An interesting conversation I had with a friend the other day led me to say something most people would consider to be quite morbid. I said: "I find solace in my own death". I think it's beautiful though.

Take away everything in your life...What is definite?

People, advice for the day:


Face yourself.


Thanks,
