@Aunty_Les I'm seeing that some people are genuinely just discovering it and I'm surprised. Maybe it's a Lagosian thing sha, cos I grew up in Lagos and I've known this as a practice for over 30 years now. I use to find it strange when you cook yam with just salt.
"ما فاتك لم يُخلق لك، وما خُلِق لك لن يفوتك، فاطمئن."
“What you missed was not created for you, and what was created for you will not be missed, so be assured.”
Whenever your heart truly wants something to happen, whisper this:
اللَّهُمَّ خَيْرًا فِي كُلِّ أَمْرٍ اِنْتَظِرُهُ
Allahumma khairan fii kulli amrin antaziruh.
“Ya Allah, grant me the best in everything that I am waiting for.”
Don't let your situation make you sad. It can change anytime, any second. Things can happen unexpectedly. And you don't need to know how and you don't need to worry. Just trust Allah. Everything will fall perfectly into place. It's all written perfectly by your perfect Lord.
Qadr - if it's meant for you, it will find you.
Tawakkul - Always have reliance in Allah, have hope in Him.
Khair - No matter what happens, there's always Khair it in.
Sabr - Indeed Allah is with those who are patient.
Shukr If you are grateful, I will give you more.
The delay of Rizq is a form of Rizq.
When Allah doesn't give you something you want, you pray more, you develop more gratitude, you recite more Quran, you make more dhikr, you stand more in tahajjud, you shed tears infront of Allah, your eeman and tawakkul increase, your sabr increases.
All this is a better rizq (getting closer to and depending more on Allah through acts of worship) than the rizq you are asking Allah for which is usually money.

Quran says again and again
“And future will be better for you than the past” (93:4)
“If the hurt comes, so will the happiness” (94:5-6)
“So remember me and I will remember you” (2:152)
I worked 20 years for a child sex trafficking rescue group. I want you to know this:
90% of Lost Children Are Found Within 30 Minutes.
That statistic should both comfort you and wake you up.
Most lost children are found quickly. But the ones who aren’t? They usually made one mistake.
And here’s the uncomfortable truth:
It’s often the exact thing most parents teach them.
We tell our kids:
“If you get lost, come find me.”
It sounds logical. It sounds empowering.
It’s WRONG!
The Mistake Most Lost Children Make:
When children realize they’re separated, they do three things almost automatically:
They panic.
They wander.
They try to find you.
Every step makes them harder to locate.
From a search standpoint, movement creates chaos.
Parents retrace their steps.
Security scans zones.
Staff lock down areas.
Search works best when movement stops.
When a child keeps walking, they move outside the original search radius. Helpers are looking where they were last seen — not where they’ve wandered.
Stillness increases probability.
Movement expands the problem.
The first lesson is not “go find me.”
It’s this:
Stop. Stay. Yell.
Why Stillness Wins:
Think like a search team.
If a child stays put:
Parents can retrace steps.
Security can scan systematically.
Helpers converge to one fixed location.
The search radius remains small.
If a child keeps moving:
The search area expands.
Adults pass each other.
Missed connections multiply.
Minutes stretch into hours.
Stillness keeps the math on your side.
Teach Them Who to Approach:
The second mistake we make as parents?
We say, “Find an adult.”
Not any adult. Not the nearest stranger. Children need a filter.
Teach them to look for, if at all possible:
A mother with children.
Caregivers who already have kids with them are statistically among the safest people to approach in public settings. They are visible, stationary, and more likely to engage quickly.
It’s a clear, concrete instruction.
Children don’t process vague categories like “safe adult.”
They process visuals.
“Find a mom with kids” is visual.
A Phone Only Helps If the Number Is Known:
We often assume phones solve everything.
They don’t — unless your child can use one. Even young children can memorize a 10-digit phone number with repetition.
But you must train it.
Practice it like a song.
Sing it in the car.
Chant it at bedtime.
Turn it into rhythm.
Repetition becomes recall.
In an emergency, recall matters more than theory.
The Code Word Rule:
One more layer of protection.
Choose a private family code word.
Something only your household knows.
If someone approaches and says:
“Your mom sent me.”
Your child asks:
“What’s the code word?”
No word.
No go.
This simple rule eliminates manipulation attempts instantly.
It gives your child agency without requiring them to evaluate character.
Real Safety Is Training — Not Luck!
We don’t get safer by hoping.
We get safer by practicing.
Teach:
• Phone number
• Code word
• Stop, stay, yell
• Find a mom with kids
Multiple skills.
Simple instructions.
Clear visuals.
Five minutes of training can replace hours of panic. This isn’t about fear. It’s about preparation.
Because when a child gets separated, the clock starts.
And what they do in the first minute determines what the next thirty look like.
That’s real protection.
my problem is that I am not an inquisitive friend. i do not ask questions about things you’ve not voluntarily shared. because of this, it may sometimes seem as though i do not care. and this happens in all my relationships.
