This week, I intend to seek Allah’s pleasure in the quiet, ordinary moments — the ones no one sees but Him. I want to be more mindful of my words, guarding my tongue from anything that doesn’t benefit my akhirah.

I intend to choose sabr over reaction, to pause before I speak, and to let dhikr soften my heart throughout the day.

I aim to pray on time, not just out of routine, but as a meeting with the One who never tires of me.

I will try to ease someone’s burden, even if only with kindness or a silent duʿāʾ. And when I fall short — as I will — I intend to return to Him with humility, not guilt.

You don’t have to have it all figured out.

Allah doesn’t expect perfection — He asks for sincerity.

In a world full of pressure, noise, and silent battles, just turning to Him is a victory.

Your late-night tears, your quiet duas, your effort to hold on — it all matters.

Because He sees you. He hears you. And He will never waste the soul that returns to Him.”

“Life is not the same for everyone.”

What comes easily to one may be a test for another. Allah, in His infinite wisdom, has created each soul with a unique path — shaped by different trials, blessings, strengths, and weaknesses.

“Do not wish for what Allah has given some of you over others…”

— Surah An-Nisa (4:32)

Instead of comparing, trust in Allah’s perfect plan for you. Be patient, be grateful, and strive sincerely — for He is All-Knowing of what you carry in your heart.

When people make you feel unwanted, undesirable…

It’s easy to start questioning yourself.

“Am I too much? Not enough? Easy to leave?”

The silence, the coldness — it stings.

And shayṭān whispers, “See? Even they don’t want you.”

But pause.

They may have turned away,

but your Lord never did.

The One who created you knows your heart.

The One who shaped you loves you more than anyone ever could.

So even when people make you feel like you don’t belong —

Return to the One who never made you feel that way.

Allah never makes His servants feel unwanted.

We do that to ourselves. Or we let others do it.

Weekly Intentions:

They say no one hears you when you’re in too deep.

But Yunus عليه السلام was swallowed by the sea…

Drowning in silence. Wrapped in darkness.

Alone.

But he whispered:

لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا أَنتَ، سُبْحَانَكَ، إِنِّي كُنتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ

Lā ilāha illā Anta, Subḥānaka, innī kuntu minaẓ-ẓālimīn

There is no god but You. Glory be to You.

Truly, I was among the wrongdoers.

— Surah Al-Anbiya (21:87)

And Allah responded.

Because it’s not about how far you’ve fallen.

It’s about Who you call when you’re there.

Even in the belly of the whale…

Even in your lowest low…

He still hears.

🌑 Your pain isn’t hidden from Him.

🌊 Your storm isn’t unnoticed.

📿 Say it now.

Say it like Yunus عليه السلام did.

To the Souls that feel they Can’t Run to Allah, Just Crawl.

Are you struggling? Do you feel you're stuck? And everyone else iman and motivation are just flourishing. You feel like you're the only one left behind. You want to improve but your Heart feels dry? Shaytaan is relentless. The nafs is loud. 

But know that A dry heart is often the one closest to rainfall. The tears you’re holding back, the ache in your soul, the whisper of "Ya Allah, I want to come back", that's the beginning of the rain. The start of healing.

And remember the ones who look strong today? Many were once exactly where you are. Maybe even worse. But they stayed. They didn’t give up when it hurt. You don’t need to have the iman of a river. Just bring your drop. Allah makes oceans from that.

"When the wise sees opportunities, they don’t walk, they run." 

Yes. But do you know what’s even wiser? To crawl toward Allah when your soul feels shattered. When everything inside you screams to give up, but you still whisper “I’ll try.”

Because the One you're crawling to? He doesn’t measure distance like we do.

He doesn’t need you to run.

He doesn’t even need you to walk.

He just wants to see you turn. Just face Him.

Allah Azzawajal says:

وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌۖ أُجِيبُ دَعۡوَةَ ٱلدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِۖ 

"And when My servants ask you, concerning Me - indeed I am near. I respond to the invocation of the supplicant when he calls upon Me..." (2:186)

She carries silent battles in her heart, but Allah hears every unspoken duʿāʾ.

Even when she feels unseen by the world, her patience is fully witnessed by the Most Merciful.

My heart longs for Makkah —

a place I’ve never been,
