Sifting through and sorting out your own inner world is one hell of a job!

Luckily, we still have wilderness pockets around us in Islamabad where sights like these can be met, provided you enter the jungle with me much before the crack of dawn

“Indeed, the losers are those who lost themselves & their families on the Day of Resurrection.” ~ Quran (from 42:45)

Ppl label each other losers. Don’t want to be losers themselves. And yet when Allah mentions the real losers (khasireen) why don’t we feel the need to know more?

[Farah 🌿 @olive_concepts]

In stable societies, men serve as protectors not just for their families but of their wider community. They confront wrongdoing & protect the weak. When children are no longer safe walking to a local shop, it’s a sign smthg has gone deeply wrong at multiple levels.

[𝖽𝗎𝗃𝖺. @duj4a]

the society that allows an 8 yr old child to be r*ped, murdered, and discarded just for walking to the local shop and the reactions are she shouldn't have gone there alone, is entirely collapsed. a society this rotten shouldn't exist. It should be burned to the ground.

[Farah 🌿 @olive_concepts]

It wasn’t always like that. Sadly, now it is. So help us God!

[Fzy @leofzy]

calm nervous system is something you can never have while living in pakistan, there will always be a thing raging and boiling your blood.

[Farah 🌿 @olive_concepts]

I am not where my heart needs to be.

Everything around me,
known for a lifetime
feels strangely unfamiliar

while something unknown
calls to me
with the familiarity of home.

@dionysianfutuwa عش ما شئت فإنك ميت، واحبب ما شئت فإنك مفارقه، واعمل ما شئت فإنك مجزي به.

[Dragon @dionysianfutuwa]

When we think we have our whole life ahead, we let time seep through our fingers. But when we remember death, we truly begin to live

Gora yearns for the pind.

But when the heart is misaligned, it’s never satiated. Listen to the heart—what does it actually long for?

[Farah 🌿 @olive_concepts]

Sifting through and sorting out your own inner world is one hell of a job!

[Farah 🌿 @olive_concepts]

The heart longs to come home—wants to find peace—and so attaches itself to people or things to fill the emptiness.

“Someone operating from their ego will trigger your ego.”

[Farah 🌿 @olive_concepts]

Sometimes you look back on life & realize how naive it was to believe we were ever in control. So much unfolds in ways we never planned. In the end, we are shaped by the ppl we meet, the places we pass thru, our life experinces, along with how we choose to respond to them.

Note of a Bosniak who had traveled for Hajj from Bosnia on a Volkswagen Beetle as she spent a night under the Arabian skies.

This post mirrors much of what I’ve been experiencing in recent months. Its accuracy really caught me off guard. It’s like you open twitter & the first post you read is your own inner monologue that you haven’t shared with anyone.
Worlds apart but similar struggles…SubhanAllah!

[Barendina Smedley @fugitiveink]

I just had some bad news — one of those boring things where people are behaving in a way that is as surprising as it is disappointing, and where there is no obvious solution to a situation I'm finding very stressful indeed. All prayers to help me find the right way through this would be very much appreciated.

بہت عجیب ہے یہ شخص .. جو اپنی جان اس لیے قربان کرنا چاہتا ہے .. کہ اُس کی قوم آزاد ہو جائے .. جبکہ قوم غلامی سے مطمئن ہیں !!

Because the tree came first..

Allah sab ko apne hifz o amaan mein rakhe pura mulk he nafsiyati ho gaya hai.
