the deepest lesson we learn from surah maryam is that at times, you may feel so lonely and helpless that you wish you could just simply disappear, but seeking refuge in Allah is the only way to overcome even the darkest of moments
Don’t worry about being popular and loved by the masses. If you choose to get closer to the Almighty and live a life of obedience, you’ll find yourself walking alone mostly. It may seem daunting and frightening at times. But don’t worry. He’s your Guide and Protector.
Never lose tawakkul. Your time will come. Your prayers will be answered. You'll be where you want to be, as long as you don't lose Allah. Enjoy the life he gave you, appreciate your blessings. He hears your du'as, knows your needs. Everything will come in due time. In sha Allah.
I don’t think enough people talk about how romantic it is to find your way back to yourself. To stop surviving and start living again. To rebuild your life so gently that one day you look around and realize… you’ve finally made it home.
When you stand in Tahajjud tonight, ask Allah to remove every form of delay in your life. Whether in marriage, career, or academics, may He clear every obstacle and grant you ease. Kun faya kun. When Allah wills something to happen, He simply says, "Be," and it is. Keep believing
Whenever your heart truly wants something to happen, whisper this:
Allahuma khairan fii kulli amrin antaziruh.
("Ya Allah, grant me the best in everything that I'm waiting for.")
@AlhafizNafiu This kind of entitlement mentality is how kidnappin@ and band!try starts. Let the blood brother hussle nah! Workers are needed on Sokoto-Badagry road.
Pattern Recognition is also the form of intelligence that causes the most stress.
You will see things that others do not.
You'll feel crazy.
Things will be *so obvious* to you, and others will just deny it.
You cannot:
Work full time, raise children, keep a spotless home, show up fully in your marriage, maintain friendships, stay fit, build wealth, read books, pursue hobbies, serve only home cooked meals, answer every email, and still make the 3:30 school pickup.
That standard was created to keep you exhausted and blaming yourself. Let it go.
When you're sad and things are looking bleak, look for a reason to smile. Believe me, you have much to be thankful for. Show gratitude. Thank the Almighty always.
