Everyone you meet carries a lesson, but not everyone is written to stay. That'is the decree of Allah, for this dunya is only a passing place.
Al'hamdulillah for those who came, and Al'hamdulillah for those who left. each one was a part of my qadr, and each one left me with something to grow from.
I saw a post that said, “Did you really think Allah would give you a heart like that and not create someone who could love you the same way?” and it genuinely brought tears to my eyes.
Because sometimes being soft and sensitive feels heavy…
Stay off sins publicly and especially privately during the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah.
It's one of the sacred months. Pray all your obligatory prayers on time.
Be dutiful to your parents during these days and stay humble to those that you teach and those that taught you.
My boyfriend once lent me ₦500,000, and I promised him I would pay it back in 5 months.
That meant every month after my salary dropped, I would send him ₦100,000 until I completed the money. So every month, I kept to my word.
First month = paid.
Second month = paid.
Third month = paid.
Fourth month = paid.
Now, on the last month when I wanted to complete the payment, he had earlier told me to call him immediately after sending the money. And I did. Immediately I sent the money, I called him like he said. While we were still on the phone, I suddenly received an alert of ₦500,000😭 I was confused and asked him why he sent the money back. And then he said something that melted me completely😭❤️ "Well done my Queen. You see, babe… the money was never the issue. I could never collect that money back from you. I just wanted to see if you were truly a woman of your word. A lot of people make promises, but only a few actually keep them. You did… and that says a lot about you. You can keep the money. What mattered to me was your sincerity… and you’ve already shown me that❤️ And honestly, that’s one of the best qualities a woman can have"❤️
Omo… I replayed those sweet words in my head for two weeks straight😭😍 Sweet words from someone you love can stay in your heart for a very long time❤
In Islam, Allah does not burden a soul beyond its ability, and genuine hardship and necessity are always taken into consideration. If a woman was unable to perform ghusl after intimacy because of a real water shortage or lack of access to water, she is not sinful, إن شاء الله, because the delay was due to necessity and not negligence. Then, if her menstruation begins before she performs ghusl, she does not need to make a separate ghusl immediately for janabah (state after intimacy). She should wait until her menstrual period ends, and then perform one complete ghusl with the intention of purification from both menstruation and janabah together. Islam is a religion of mercy, ease, and cleanliness, not hardship and fear. Allah says: “Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship” (Qur’an 2:185).
At the same time, a Muslim should always try to fulfill purification as soon as reasonably possible when water becomes available, because cleanliness and taharah are beloved to Allah. Situations like this should not become a source of panic or overwhelming guilt. Sometimes Shaytan tries to make believers anxious in matters of purity and worship, while Allah wants sincerity, balance, and peace for His servants. Continue worshipping Allah with love, trust, and humility, knowing that He fully understands every difficulty and hidden circumstance. The Prophet ﷺ taught that religion is ease, and Allah rewards sincere intentions even when a person faces limitations beyond their control.
O Allah, purify our hearts and bodies, make our worship easy and accepted, and grant us understanding, balance, and peace in practicing our deen. O Allah, never let hardship distance us from Your mercy and guidance. Ameen 🤲
Fajr
The truest, finest & deepest love is felt when Allah wakes you up for Fajr without an alarm & oversleeping tahajjud becomes Sadaqah for you because you intended to wake up. Then, exactly at Fajr time, you hear your name being called & you wake up

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:
“When Allah loves a servant, He selects him for Himself, chooses him for His love, and devotes him to His worship. Then He occupies his concerns with Him, his tongue with His remembrance, and his limbs with His service.”
