One of my courses at Harvard, a former president was one of our lecturers. He was chased out of power, and went to Harvard for exile and became a lecturer. He was there to teach us failure basically. That thing stuck with me. Failure is part of life, not an end to life! 👏
And your Lord is the Forgiving, the possessor of mercy. If He were to impose blame upon them for what they earned, He would have hastened for them the punishment. Rather, for them is an appointment from which they will never find an escape.
A person I know died last night here in Dubai. Was 36yrs old. Has a wife and a 5yr old son. He was supposed to travel last night to Kannur for his vacation. Was having dinner before going to the airport, and he suddenly dropped down unconscious. His roommates took him to the hospital but he was declared dead on arrival. Had no history of any illnesses, was perfectly healthy. The son was eagerly waiting to see his dad come home, telling his grandmother to wake him up in the morning. He'll never see his dad alive again 😥. I saw this news at 4.30am today. And went numb for a while. Life is so fickle, we really don't know what'll happen next. Every single day alive is a privilege that most of us don't realise, or appreciate.

Dropping your ego to apologise doesn’t make you weak, it makes you mature and wise. If you were wrong, even a little, owning it is a sign of strength, not defeat. Pride may protect your feelings for a moment, but it often destroys relationships permanently. An apology is not saying the other person is better than you; it’s saying you value peace, growth, and integrity more than winning an argument. If you want respect tomorrow, choose humility today. Do the right thing while you still can, your future self will thank you. Just passing by.
Starting your day with tahajjud, fajr, and Quran. Even if you recite one page it’s like you’re starting your day with a sense of security that nothing can shake, not even the whispers of the Shaytan It feels like Allah has sheild you before stepping out of the house as you feel grounded and at peace. Alhamdullilah
Allah’s protection is powerful. SubhanAllah!
I run every day for 30 minutes, if I miss a day I add 30 minutes to the next day.
This has truly been a game changer, tomorrow I’m supposed to run for 3 weeks.
Today’s Congressional hearing in Washington DC marks a very important moment in the international conversation about insecurity in Nigeria. For the first time in a long while we witnessed a constructive and informed discussion in the U.S. Congress. Members from both major parties spoke passionately about the situation in Nigeria. They acknowledged the seriousness of terrorism and the human suffering it has caused in different parts of our country. They also recognized the complexity of the conflict and the potential consequences of any foreign action.
What stood out clearly for me, was the strong rejection of direct military intervention in Nigeria. Instead they promoted a more rational and responsible partnership between the Nigerian government and the U.S. government. They recommended a joint approach to assess Nigeria’s current capacity to deal with terrorism. They encouraged the U.S. to provide intelligence support and work closely with Nigerian security forces in identifying isolating arresting or eliminating the terrorists who have caused havoc in different regions of our country. This includes Boko Haram attacks in the Northeast. This includes the criminal activities of bandits in the Northwest and North Central. This includes violent groups in the Southeast and Southwest. Nigerians have suffered regardless of religion or tribe and every Nigerian deserves safety and dignity. This new direction is a very welcome development. It is far better than the past reckless and impulsive calls for aggressive military action in Nigeria that would have damaged our sovereignty and put civilian lives at great risk. Today we saw a wiser approach that respects Nigeria and focuses on what actually works. This is a major win for diplomacy and for those who believe in smart collaboration rather than destructive intervention.
The Tinubu administration must seize this opportunity. Nigeria should move quickly to strengthen cooperation with the U.S. and also with European partners. We must also recognize another important message that emerged from today’s hearing which is the urgent need to appoint ambassadors in key countries across the world. Nigeria’s reputation has suffered from misinformation and disinformation. We need strong capable representatives who can stand for Nigeria, defend our interests and engage with global leaders to restore confidence in our nation’s future.
This is not a time for political rewards. It is a time to appoint people who are qualified. People who will represent Nigeria with honour. People who will work tirelessly to create a safer and more prosperous future for all Nigerians.
To those at home who celebrated the possibility of a foreign attack on our own country I ask you to reflect. You may feel angry or frustrated but it is important to step back and think carefully. Foreign bombing will not fix Nigeria. It will destroy lives and deepen our suffering. This moment offers a better path. A chance for collaboration and intelligence support to help us bring peace and stability to every corner of our country.
If we take this opportunity seriously and if we work with the right partners this could be a turning point. A moment when Nigeria moves forward with dignity strength and unity. A moment when our government is supported to protect our people and secure our sovereignty. A moment when Nigeria begins to rise again. #Nigeriafirst

You’re not behind in life. Everyone moves at their own pace.
Stay focused, stay grateful, and stop comparing. Your time is coming, just don’t quit before it does
5 things
1) never abandon your daily prayers. I don’t care if you’re at a concert or in the car with your girlfriend. Yes those things are wrong, but don’t let the fact that you’re sinning deter you from praying - it should be the other way round.
2) dating will taint you, haram relationships will hurt you, zina will haunt you, and that girl who refuses to get her parents involved is just wasting your time
3) stay away from prn. It tanks your productivity, ruins your s*x life, and can impact your health. Nevermind the impermissible nature of it
4) stop looking at uncovered women. I’m not talking about prn. I mean when you see women in the streets, or on your Instagram feed. Stop clicking on their profiles, stop checking their stories, stop torturing yourself
5) don’t ever think that your aim in life is to be happy. Happiness is not the goal. Happiness is a byproduct of achieving a higher goal. We were created to worship Allah. So do a good job in that. Do a good job of being useful to your people. Do a good job of contributing, of providing, of protecting. THAT is what will make you happy
