There’s a constant sadness in the heart that only Allah can heal.
The world today is spiritually adrift. Have the dunya in your hand and Allah in your heart. Leave with your tongues moist with the remembrance of Allah ﷻ. People are preoccupied with the pursuit of happiness, but real happiness that infiltrates the heart is the dhikr (remembrance) of Allah. Be sincere for Him. Every time you fall or you err, or darkness starts to fall onto your heart, make tawba.

Imagine being of the slaves whom Allaah loves . What Allaah has mentioned in the hadeeth qudsi of the great virtues of those whom He loves It was narrated that Abu Hurayrah said: The Messenger of Allaah sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said:“Whosoever shows enmity to someone devoted to Me, I shall be at war with him. My servant draws not near to Me with anything more loved by Me than the religious duties I have enjoined upon him, and My servant continues to draw near to Me with supererogatory works so that I shall love him. When I love him I am his hearing with which he hears, his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which he strikes and his foot with which he walks. Were he to ask [something] of Me, I would surely give it to him, and were he to ask Me for refuge, I would surely grant him it. I do not hesitate about anything as much as I hesitate about [seizing] the soul of My faithful servant: he hates death and I hate hurting him.“ Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 6502.
Imagine, just try to imagine. - Not listening to anything but that which Allaah loves. - Not seeing anything but that which Allaah loves. - Not doing anything with his hand but that which Allaah loves. - Not going towards anything but that which Allaah loves. - Supplications are heard and ones requests are granted - Protected by Allaah from all things. Now imagine being of the slaves whom Allaah hates, the Lord of the Worlds hating you, not being pleased with you. Did it hurt ? Isn’t it time to repent O slave of ar-Rahmaan? Is that sinful act worth the wrath of your Lord? Haven’t you been carried away for far too long? In what state will you meet Him? With what deeds will you stand before Him? Return to your guidance, O Muslim. Return to your guidance.
I hope I live long enough to see the children of Palestine, Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria wake up to the sound of birds not bombs

‘Standing in taraweeh (Ramadan night prayers) while everyone is weeping – except you. Your friends talk about how exhilarating fasting is for them – but all you feel is irritation; and that is if you feel anything at all. Your du`as (supplications) are just words you repeat – without heart.
What is the point of all of it? Your actions are robotic. Monotone. Without soul.
You wish you could be like that person praying next to you in taraweeh who sobs during every prostration. You want to be the one passionately pleading with Allah subhanahu wa ta`ala (exalted is He) with humility. Your hope is that you can be that person whose heart is broken before God. You know what, though? You, too, are special to Allah (swt).
You who recites the Qur’an because you know it is good.
You who prays because Allah (swt) commanded you to.
You who attends lectures on Islam because you want to feel closer to Him.
The Prophet ﷺ told us that the person who recites the Qur’an and struggles with the recitation receives twice the reward: for their recitation and for their effort and struggle. He who struggles to be devoted in prayer gets twice the reward: for the parts that he was devoted, and for his struggle to stay focused.
As long as you are trying, Allah (swt) is with you.
The fact that you get up to pray qiyaam (night prayer) even though you feel nothing is appreciated by Allah (swt). When you mouth the words to your du`a even when your heart is numb, Allah (swt) knows how you feel. And you are rewarded for that. Do not think that this will go to waste.
Allah (swt) gets it. Because you are not worshipping a feeling. You do not bow down solely for that ‘high’. You prostrate only to the Lord of the feelings and the One who is the Most High. You submit to Him – through your prayers, fasting and supplication – because you know you have a Merciful, Just, Appreciative, Forgiving God, Who has the power to give life to everything that is dead.
Including your heart.
You know you have a Nurturing, Patient, Generous, Subtle and Kind Lord who can bring back whatever is lost.
He can bring you back.
So to the heart that is numb: Do not give up just yet. Your heart is on a journey. You are first and foremost worshiping your Lord. And He has promised you: “And those who strive for Us – We will surely guide them to Our ways. And indeed, Allah is with the doers of good.” (Qur’an, 29:69)
As long as you are doing good, Allah (swt) will guide you and He is with you. Do you know what that means?
Allah (swt) being with someone means more care, honoring and preference for that person.
And you know what else? Allah loves what you do. He tells us:
“Indeed, those who have believed and done righteous deeds – the Most Merciful will appoint for them affection.” (Qur’an, 19:96)
Allah will not only love you, but He will show that love for you. He will bestow His affection upon you, and your heart will feel it.
So keep trekking. Your heart will open – He is, after all, al-Fattah. Al-Fattah is He who opens whatever is closed; your heart included. You might wonder when and how, but just know that it will happen. It could be on the last night of Ramadan or it could be a month after Ramadan – your heart will open, God willing. The daily exercise you do might not look like much, but you will inevitably see the results if you persevere. Similarly, your good actions slowly chip away at what has been hardening your heart and, eventually, you will feel.
And if it gets too much, just talk to Allah (swt). Tell Him how you feel, and tell Him how you want to feel. Do it every night, and every time you feel empty. God is there; never underestimate your turning to Him. ‘Turning to Him’ does not just mean prayers and supplications; you can just tell Him what is in your heart.
On the Day of Judgment, you will be grateful for your perseverance and your hope in Him, because it will matter more than you will ever know. So push yourself and exert all the effort you can muster. The tiniest ray of light can brighten the darkest of places.’ Saima khalil
This reminds me of this ayah:
And their Lord responded to them, “Never will I allow to be lost the work of [any] worker among you, whether male or female; you are of one another. So those who emigrated or were evicted from their homes or were harmed in My cause or fought or were killed - I will surely remove from them their misdeeds, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow as reward from Allah , and Allah has with Him the best reward.” -Quran (3:193)
All you’ve ever needed was Allah.

i once asked my father who was his favourite. me or my brothers ‘baba, who do you love more?’ i remember, baba smiled and told me ‘i love my kids all the same’ so i smiled back, right into his tired brown eyes but baba carried on ‘i know you will never leave me alone’ baba said. he read on my face that his words confused me. so baba kept going ‘i know when i am old, it is my daughter who will put the food into my mouth. i know it is my daughter who will bring me a glass of water on hot days. i know it is my daughter who will take my hand and listen to me rambling like old people often do. i know my daughter will have a husband and kids. but i know she’ll never forget her old father’ baba said. ‘because daughters are grateful, daughters are soft and caring, daughters remember and daughters give back.’

The Du'ā that’s answered the quickest is a Du'ā in secret for another person.
Sh. Ibn Taymiyyāh | Fatāwa v. 28, p. 96 (via ramiroo19)
As much as you can, keep dunya (worldly life) in your hand—not in your heart. That means when someone insults you, keep it out of your heart so it doesn’t make you bitter or defensive. When someone praises you, also keep it out of your heart, so it doesn’t make you arrogant and self-deluded. When you face hardship and stress, don’t absorb it in your heart, so you don’t become hopeless and overwhelmed. Instead keep it in your hands and realize that everything passes. When you’re given a gift by God, don’t hold it in your heart. Hold it in your hand so that you don’t begin to love the gift more than the giver. And so that when it is taken away you can truly respond with ‘inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon’: ‘indeed we belong to God, and to God we return’.

When people help one another in sin and transgression, they finish by hating each other.

Some days, I wonder if you miss me. Other days, I wonder why I’m still wondering.

May Allah love those who comfort others even though their own hearts are torn
