Wandering...

Sara Torres, from her novel titled "X Is Where I Am," orginally published in March 2026

“i want and you want and Allāh does what He wills.”

O Allah place me among the inheritors of the Garden of Pleasure without punishment or account.

Certainty: Is knowing that Allah is capable, even when all the reasons around you say it’s impossible

Our real problem is that most of us search for paradise and not for God.

"O Allah, I am trying, so help me."

“Do not belittle your good impact. You could be someone’s light unknowingly, perhaps you spoke a word that settled deep within someone’s heart and became a turning point in their life, perhaps you gave a sincere advice to someone which changed their life to the better… perhaps you planted a seed of goodness then left and forgot about it, and now it became a green tree under which the passer-by’s take shade, and eat from its fruits. Be good with your speech, your actions and all your affairs, for you do not know which path you will illuminate and which soul you build, and which impact you leave. Glad tidings to the human who builds his fellow human and becomes a true source of goodness.”

‎[Majmu al fatawa 16/19]

[Sharh Bulugh al-Maram 3/532-533]

I seek refuge in You from loneliness, for You are the best of inheritors and I seek refuge in You from being lost, for You are the Guide of the bewildered."
