Life's Story

These are the things I think about during this Holy Month. That I seek refuge in. I do not view myself as this pious leader that jumps in front of cars 🚗 to save people. I am emotional, oft-forgiving and often doubt myself about what I can and cannot do. This Month is a reflection of what I need to work on. I am the hardest person on me when I make a mistake. I try to make Taw’bah daily as much as I can, because I know how I fall short. May Allah ta’ala accept our fast! (Allahumma Ameen). 🥺🥺😢😢 (at Mayfair) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqVOTK1LkN1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Again, I test my own talent to see my improvements and how well I continue to push myself, and these results are as @vickalmighty says, “night and day!!” Deep clean for @reshoevn8r products, as well as a midsole repaint. Also deoxidated the shoe strings as well. #SHOEDOCTORFROMPHILLY 🥾👞👢👡🎨🩰👟👠🔌 (at Mayfair) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpBgAkVLsTc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So I would like to formally apologize for my actions and the way I felt from @willsmith’s actions with the Awards and all that. I looked at him in a different light, and as soon as I realized that he is human like everyone else, and I judged him. For that, I am deeply sorry for that. I remember reading a post/story once you had that read “you cannot hold on to anger from people. You have to forgive yourself, before you learn to forgive them.” I am no one at all to judge how you responded or reacted to that incident, and everyone can say “I would have acted this way,” but no one knows!! I know for sure that you are still one of the greatest actors and humanitarians to ever walked this earth 🌍 and I am so sorry for judging you. My lesson: “Please learn to forgive people and do not judge them based off of what you perceived them to be.” 🥺🥺😢😢 (at Mayfair) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjEq2sxr7i_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My Sister (Last to the Left) is actually 49 years old today. I remember like yesterday growing up with her, and pushing forward because she was more than a Sister to me! A strong woman figure in my life to show me, guide me, mold me to be a man!! I have never seen another woman love as hard as she does besides my Mother!!! Happy 49th Birthday to you @nolangmom_928!! I love you with everything in me!!!! Enjoy your Special Day Sis!! 🥺🥺😢😢🙏🏽🙏🏽 (at Mayfair) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjDOY-erKU5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So it was gonna take me forever to post this, because this is “like losing a Family member of mine’s!!” It is sad, because a week before he passed, I spoke with him. “Success wears a heavy crown 🤴 in these Streets!!” People do not wanna see you out here successful! Gotta move different!!! Rest up my boy @passdatshit!!!! Love you my guy!!! My deepest condolences to you and your family bro!!!! Gone way too soon!!!! 😢😢🥺🥺 (at Mayfair) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgJx_J9Lte1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Prophet ‏صلى الله عليه وسلم says to “give rights to your brothers and sisters, and this is another pioneer, staple in his Community, and feared his Lord to the highest level. “Big B is what the youth called him.” As Muslims, we say ‏أن لله وأن لله راجعون (to our Lord we come, and to our lord we return). We are in great debt to strong black men, and Allah ta’ala blessed us with his presence, guidance and his wisdom to mold us into God-fearing, pious men!!! With tears, my deepest condolences to the Islam Family! May Allah ta’ala protect him from the grave and to keep it spacious and full of light!!! (Allahumma Ameen). 🥺🥺😢😢 (at Mayfair) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeGkKCVrdJv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
