which one are you?😅

We are still walking. Today I walked around 11 km in total for the day, with the longest straight segment being 8 km.

The route: Ayat -> Meri -> CMC -> Civil Service -> Jackros Road.

I have started recording my walks on Strava, and I think we can walk together too. Join the club I created below, and we would walk and hike as a community. Join "WeWalkWithAbdu" and walk with me. 🙂

If a bird falls in love with a fish, where will they live?

They shouldn't be together in the first place. In a world full of birds, why would you go for the fish? This is not about love. Why would you take yourself to a place where you know you don't belong and try to fit in?

Know your boundaries. Don't force yourself into situations where you constantly have to change your identity or live in an environment that doesn't suit you.

hey it's me Coolio, you might know me from the community hike events i've hosted multiple times. (one coming very soon aswell so join up)

so i ..... deleted my channel by mistake. i was trying to delete a post and instead deleted the whole channel smh.

anyways this is my new channel engdi.

we keep going, we keep growing.

share this around the community and lets keep the momentum going ❤️

@CoolioCodes

I have nothing to do and nothing to post either. So why not read your SMAs?

This time, I want you to share something you regret doing or not doing. What have you learned from it?

I will only share it here if you used #public in your message; otherwise, I will keep it to myself.

Please this is not ‘Tell me your ችግር’ SMA. So don’t share me your ችግርs 🙂

please stop. I'm serious. 😅

start a business is all I can say. I never had a milion so I don't know what to do either.

true, me either. University Jemma'ahs change your life in a good way.

I feel you. This is also an issue I am always concerned about. It's not called luck, but at least knowing bad friends has taught you how the environment really went bad. And Alhamdulillah, you managed to somehow escape from them. "Lijoch masadeg." Honestly, wellahi, I am always concerned. Let alone my future children, I am concerned about my siblings and cousins. I never had a social media account until 11th grade, but these days they already have one since elementary school, so you can imagine the damage. I don't know the solution either, but one thing I always do is get closer to them as a friend, not as their big brother. I intentionally raise topics that they may only talk about with their friends, so at least they are comfortable talking with me, which helps prevent them from damage. Get them closer to the masjid and ders; the environment will keep them away. And Inshallah, Allah will protect them and us.

#the_long_message_writer 🙂

This answer is for someone who wrote a long message about a question. So, if you are not that person, feel free to skip it.

Pray Salat al-Istikhara, a two-rak'ah prayer to be performed when people are in situations like this. Make dua from the bottom of your heart so Allah will help you resolve the situation.

Secondly, I feel like you are hurting yourself too much. You are a good girl, and that could be the reason you are taking care of someone else too much. But at the end of the day, it is you who you should prioritize. This is Dunya, and whether it turns out the way you want or not, Allah has already written the plans. Insha'Allah, the plans are written well. All parties will end up well. Don't forget in your prayers to ask Allah to give you and all of them the best of Sabr regarding the consequences.

What would I do if I were in your situation? I have never been there, so I am giving a hypothetical answer based on the experience I saw from friends. I go by "ewnetun tenagro yemeshebet mader." I will tell everyone the truth and see what happens. If they all leave me, Alhamdulillah. I will start anew. Since I am a good lover, starting a new one wouldn't be difficult. If they all stayed, I would leave them all by myself and start a new one.

Lastly, please, please don't stress too much. We are living 60 to 70 years in this world, of which 1/3rd has already passed. For sure, your issue will only be a concern for a maximum of another 10 years. Make dua, and Insha'Allah, Allah will resolve it.

To the rest of the people looking for a hint, please just scroll down to the next post :)

Advice on improving communication: I think the first step is to stop caring what people say back. Yes, you may have never been a good communicator, but you can start communicating today. People will be baffled as to when you randomly became a communicator, but why in the world would you care?

If you are afraid of talking in public, start talking in front of a mirror or record a video of yourself talking. Don't watch it back; just keep recording. Eventually, communication will be easier. Once you get comfortable, go to events and meet new people. Talking with new people will help you stop fearing judgment because you know you aren't going to meet that person the next day, so you will yapp as much as you can. Through time, you will even forget that communication was ever an issue for you.

Yes, don't get attached to anyone. Thank God I am low-key an avoidant attachment person, so I don't have to care when people leave me. :)

and this one about picking your friends.

I think this is all for today. I am sure you all have benefited from the messages. And inshallah, if you send serious messages that people will benefit from, like this one, I will do more of this in the future.

Good night. 🤍

And the Messenger will say, 'O my Lord, indeed my people have taken this Qur'an as [a thing] abandoned.

👉 Surat Al-Furqan, Ayah 30

I begin my day with this alarming Ayah, and it reminded me of this poetic saying:

Imagine Allah s.w Saying this to you:

إن كنت تزعم حبي
فلم هجرت كتابي؟
أما تأملت ما فيه
من لذيذ خطابي؟

"If you claim to love Me,
Then why have you abandoned My Book?
Have you not pondered over what it contains
Of My delightful address?"😢

📌This is just to remind myself and you guys to always have daily 'Wird'(recite a consistent portion of Quran), so that we will not be amongst the once that this Ayah applies on them.

This is not just a one-time thing. Every time an event is posted, you will see a question asking for confirmation in the comments.
