I want that boring Muslim life. Isha then sleep. Fajr before the world wakes up. Qur’an in the quiet. Gym. Halal food. Dhikr walks. Sunnahs. A small circle that actually reminds you of Allah. Less posting. Less explaining. Less being available to everybody. More solitude. More prayer. More peace. And if somebody thinks your life looks boring? Fine. You’re not building your life for their entertainment. Sometimes the most beautiful thing is simply being close to Allah and hard to disturb.
We work hard to hoard things in this life.
The irony is that when we die, we won’t take anything with us except that which we had given!
Though charity seems to be for the poor, in reality it is for us.
A good word may please those whom we said it to, but it is actually for us as well.
When we mend a broken heart and make them feel better, we are benefiting ourselves.
Those who work relentlessly to serve others and give them a helping hand, they are making their affairs easy on the Day of Judgment.
Allah says:”If you do good, you do good for yourselves; and if you do evil, [you do it] to them [i.e., yourselves]." 17:7

With a heavy heart, we announce that this account owner has passed away.

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Jibril came to me and said: `O Muhammad, live as long as you want, for you will die. Love whomever you want, for you will leave him. Do whatever you want for you will be requited for it.”
One day, we will leave without a goodbye.
We will depart, leaving behind all our dreams, pains, memories, worries and those we loved.
Our shadows will no longer be seen, our hearts will seize to beat, our voices will fade away and we will unwillingly leave people we loved and those who grew attached to us.
When this happens and it will inevitability happen, all what we need at such times is your sincere duaa.
Everything has an end to it, and our end is when we leave everything behind us and start our eternal life, hopefully in the gardens of Eden!
People by nature love money. We are sad when we don’t have money this life but our sadness is greater on the day of judgement.
Allah says about those who are hell bound: “My wealth has not availed me.”
Privately messaging non-mahram (whether
through social media over trivial
things, has a serious effect on your haya.

your attitude and how you present yourself in
public as well as private.
Why risk your haya over messaging and
As I hurried to catch my flight from Jeddah, I hired a Pakistani driver from Mecca. Seeing his humble demeanor, I invited him to share lunch with me at my hotel. With tears in his eyes, he said,
Since morning, I had no passengers and no earnings. I was hungry but had no money for food. Then Allah sent you.
His words moved me deeply, reminding me of how Allah provides through unexpected means. (ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ)
Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:
"Your soul is just like your enemy,
once it finds you serious, it obeys you.
If it finds weakness from you, it will take you as a prisoner."
