and most exalted, tremendous is He.

H&Q-51

1. A Muslim woman who dresses to please her Creator is free. Free from the need of being accepted. She is not scrutinised for being too big or thin because her garments conceal her shape. She doesn't follow the ever changing trends, nor does she label herself a fashionishta; for her the Sunnah will never be outdated. Beautifying herself within the boundaries of her faith is something she enjoys, but only for the eyes of those who it is permitted. It's easy to conform and follow the crowd; going against the norms by covering up can only be done by a strong, confident Muslim woman who declares her faith publicly and proud.

Hijab- You only see what i want you to see thats freedom.

2. Allah is the most fair. He will give you someone who you deserve. So the more you work on improving your self, the better your spouse will be inshaAllah

3. Leaving the people and places you love, is a reminder of the impermanence of this life.

And the permanence of the next.

4. Pilgrimage to Mecca- What better analogy of death and the hearafter can there be than this? In only two white sheets, we leave the world behind us, and we journey to the gathering place. The place of Hashr. We all come. The old, the young, the ones who can barely walk. Labaik Allahumma labaik, here we are oh Allah, at your service. Here we are. We spend our entire lives, knowingly or unknowingly, repeating the talbaya. We are all headed to the gathering place. We are all on the same journey. How can we witness these anlogies, these signs, and go home unchanged? How can we return untouched by a glimpse of the hearafter? How can we return unmoved by a greater awareness of what's Real and what is only fleeting?

5. Listen to your inner voice, but not with blindness. Our voice can be a guide, only when guided by revelation.

6. If flowers can teach themselves how to bloom after winter passes, so can you.

7. The root of envy is actually ignorance. Ignorance of this truth: All blessings come in pairs of two. With every blessing is a test.

You envy someone for their blessing, because you don't see their test.

8. But, this dark place is not the end. Remember that the darkness of night precedes the dawn. And as long as your heart still beats, this is not the death of it. You don’t have to die here. Sometimes, the ocean floor is only a stop on the journey. And it is when you are at this lowest point, that you are faced with a choice. You can stay there at the bottom, until you drown. Or you can gather pearls and rise back up—stronger from the swim, and richer from the jewels.

9. Throughout this journey, You have always been by my side. You've supported me when I was weak and shown me the Reality when I was deceived. Alhamdulillah he Rabbil a'alameen ya Rabbi.

10. This worldly life is nothing but a material of delusion." Qur’an 57:20

11. Ya Allah, do not make this Dunya our biggest concern." Ameen.

12. The life of this world is Paradise for a disbeliever and a prison for a believer. When a believer dies and departs from this world, he feels himself like a prisoner who was released to go freely on the spacious earth.

13. Sometimes a single prostration to Allah relieves all the pain. Alhamdulillah

14. Having the world doesn't mean you have everything

Having Allah means you have everything.

15. The more we lower ourselves to Allah the higher He raises our status. SubhaanAllah

16. The stronger the faith, the harder the test and the greater the reward.

17. We are continously tested, either through blessings to see how thankful we are, or through trials to see how patient we are.

18. As much as we are taught to appreciate those who correct us, we are reminded that there is a way of doing it.

19. When Allah is near, your success is clear. Alhamdulillah

20. Death is waiting for you and me. Are we currently in a state that we are ready to meet Allah?
