I've divorced Sadness...

I have divorced the the dissapointment that grows when you feed it with empty calories.

The satisfaction of self-pity

and strength of negativity.

I have decided that my heart would beat to the rhythm of La-Illaha Il-Allah.

And every molecule of oxygen that enters my body will echo with Alhamdullilah.

You are beautiful and I love you just as you are right now.

You are love, You are amazing, You are filled with the potential to affect the hearts of other human beings.



and most of all my friend, Allah SWT loves you for the deeds you have completed with the intention of pleasing him SWT...Allah Especially loves you for the extra good deeds you have done, which only you may know about. Masha'Allah!!

Love is stronger than Hate, More human than hate, and more pleasing to Allah SWT.

FEAR

I realized that somewhere along my "siraat-al mustaqeem" I've taken a little rest inside a cave called "Fearing Allah" which in turn, caused me to become lost in a battle with myself. Subhan'Allah.....No. Islam freed me, and that is the perfection of it. I will not hide in this cave anymore, using it as an excuse to reject what I am really afraid of....(ie; being hurt, feeling ashamed, etc)

What I'm trying to say is that Islam is freedom, it is a beautiful, harmonious, natural lifestyle. Islam to me is supposed to help us to the highest of Jannah insha'Allah and EQUIP us to overcome the big the fears we confront in the dunya insha'Allah.

I remember when I was a child I would be sitting and waiting,

and when I started to question whether or not I was forgotten,

I would see my dear mother arrive to take me home.

Sam Levenson: Time-Tested Beauty Tips

For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it once a day.

For poise, walk with the knowledge that you'll never walk alone.

We leave you a tradition with a future.

The tender loving care of human beings will never become obsolete.

People even more than things have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and

redeemed and redeemed and redeemed.

Never throw out anybody.

Remember, if you need a helping hand, you'll find one at the end of your arm.

As you grow older, you will discover taht you have two hands: one for helping yourself,

the other for helping others.

Your "good old days" are still ahead of you, may you have many of them.

"Happiness IS a choice!!"

"Our eyes are filled with tears, our hearts with grief, but we say nothing with our lips except that which pleases Allah.... Verily, to Allah we belong, and to Him we return."




I'm just a rock, and everyday I sit and watch the sky

I sleep here in the sun and rain, and do not question why

I don't want to be a bird, 'cause as rocks we're never meant to fly

But you can sit and rest on me when you pass by



Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah) - Alhamdulillah I'm a rock

And that is all Allah asks of me

Alhamdulillah - Alhamdulillah I'm a Muslim

And there's nothing else I'd rather be



I'm just a tree and this is the only life I'll ever know

I'll bow my bows and worship whenever I feel the wind blow

And my purpose in life is to grow and Allah says grow

And be a home for the birds and shade for folks below



Alhamdulillah - Alhamdulillah I'm a tree

And that is all Allah asks of me

Alhamdulillah - Alhamdulillah I'm a Muslim

And there's nothing else I'd rather be



I'm just a person and my life is full of opportunity

I can travel through the world, over land and over sea

But will I choose the path of Truth, or a path to misguide me?

Sometimes I wish I had a simple life, just like a rock or a tree

But Alhamdulillah - Alhamdulillah I'm a person

And Allah has given me a choice that's free

So, Alhamdulillah - I choose to be a Muslim

And there's nothing else I'd rather be



Alhamdulillah - Alhamdulillah I'm a person

And Allah has given me a choice that's free

So, Alhamdulillah - I choose to be a Muslim

And there's nothing else I'd rather be

No, there's nothing else I'd rather be

salaam alaikum

"Beware of the excess of food; indeed, the excess of food hardens the heart, and slows the limbs from obedience to Allah, and deafens the mind from hearing the admonition. Beware of the excess of looking; indeed, it sows lust in the heart and creates foolishness. Beware of being greedy because greed fills the heart with strong avidity and seals the heart with the seal of the love of this world, and it is the key for bad deeds and the cause for foiling good deeds"

It's okay.

she had forgotten how good it felt to have her forehead to the ground,

because she was too busy pushing her heart

against the rusted bars of her chest.

Her pain was in her stiffness

and she carried it in her inactivity.

Inspired by passion, and a dying breed of men...

the story will continue.
