If you have the forgiveness of Allah, you have the love of Allah. if you have the forgiveness of Allah and you're seeking it, it shows that you're bothered about Allah, you are concerned about your relationship with him. you believe in him. Seeking forgiveness goes to show you have a worry about your hereafter. it shows that you are a mukmin and you have Imaan. You have believe in you to seek forgiveness after you sin.

Your relationship with Allah is strengthened when you seek forgiveness and Allah swt will never ever reject your repentance for as long as you're sincere 🤍

if you needed to hear this today 🤍

🕊️

find someone who understands the deen and not knows the deen.

a big difference.
the one who knows the deen, will talk more, whereas
the one who understands the deen will act more.

Dzun Nun al-Misri said:

“This world holds no true success except through remembering Him.
The Hereafter will bring no success except through His forgiveness.
And Paradise itself will hold no ultimate joy except through seeing Him.”

Don’t let life pass in heedlessness. Remember Him often, seek His forgiveness, and stay connected to Him. What you build with Allah lasts forever—and what awaits with Him is far greater.

Allah calls the life of this world mata' al-ghurur, the enjoyment of delusion.

The less you cling to this world, the more it opens up.

The less you worship it, the less power it has over you.

Use worldly things without letting them own you.

🕊️

if Allah want you perfect, wants you to be flawless perfect, no mistakes at all,

He wouldve created more angels, instead of human.

slowly, try our best, to at least once every day, listen to qur’anic recitations, or read the qur’an.

even one verse, could make a huge difference in your life.

صبر ❤️‍🩹
Allah is watching,
Allah is listening,
Allah knows,
Allah understands,
Allah is with you.
Allah sees your pain,
Allah hears your silence,
Allah will make a way.

The more knowledgeable a woman becomes, the simpler her appearance becomes.

The more knowledgeable a woman becomes, the more shy and uncomfortable she feels when receiving praise from non-mahram men.

The more knowledgeable a woman becomes, the more she prefers and settles within her home.

The more knowledgeable a woman becomes, the less she speaks except for what is good and beneficial.

The more her knowledge increases, the more humble her heart becomes.

The more her knowledge increases, the better she becomes at guarding herself.

Avoid entertaining your own desires & start seeking knowledge. Because knowledge disciplines the heart, softens the soul, and guides you back to what truly matters.

May Allah increase us in beneficial knowledge, beautify us with modesty, and make us among those who act upon what they learn. Aamiin

What supplications (dhikr) are recommended to be recited after the Witr prayer?

1. Ubayy ibn Ka‘b reported that after the Prophet ﷺ concluded the Witr prayer with salam, he would recite three times:

سُبْحَانَ الْمَلِكِ الْقُدُّوس
“Glory be to Allah, the Sovereign, the Most Holy (Perfect and free from all نقص).”

This hadith is authentic and narrated by Abu Dawud and al-Nasa’i.

⸻

2. From ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would say at the end of his Witr:

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِرِضَاكَ مِنْ سَخَطِكَ، وَأَعُوذُ بِمُعَافَاتِكَ مِنْ عُقُوبَتِكَ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْكَ، لَا أُحْصِي ثَنَاءً عَلَيْكَ، أَنْتَ كَمَا أَثْنَيْتَ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ

“O Allah, I seek refuge in Your pleasure from Your غضب (anger), and I seek refuge in Your pardon from Your punishment. I seek refuge in You from You. I cannot fully praise You; You are as You have praised Yourself.”

Narrated by al-Tirmidhi.

⸻

3. The scholars of the Shafi‘i school state that it is recommended (sunnah) to recite both of the above supplications after the Witr prayer. Imam al-Nawawi mentioned in al-Majmu‘:

“It is recommended to say after Witr three times: ‘Subhan al-Malik al-Quddus,’ and to say: ‘Allahumma inni a‘udhu bi ridhaka min sakhatika…’ (the supplication above). There are two authentic hadiths regarding this in Sunan Abu Dawud and others.”

move forward, and leave everything behind, don’t let your past sins take over u.

Allah sees your effort.

Be gentle with the ones you love.

One day, you’ll miss their voice,
their presence, even the smallest things about them.

And no amount of longing will bring those moments back.
So love them now.
While Allah still allows you to.

keep your life private, keep the circle small.

people can’t destroy what they don’t know.

Your faith isnt solely measured by the length of your hijab or by the number of rakaahs you perform

Faith lies within the way you treat others, the things you think in your mind and heart and the words that fall out of your mouth

Someone who is fearful of Allah and is aware of their adab and what is pleasing to Allah even if it is hidden from the eyes of others is truly faithful

seeking knowledge in Islam is not something tied to age, it is a lifelong journey, from the moment we are aware until our last breath. whether you are young & full of curiosity, or older & carrying years of experience, the door to knowledge is always open.

Allah سبحانه وتعالى elevates those who seek knowledge, regardless of when they begin.

in the Quran, He says:
“Allah will raise those who have believed among you and those who were given knowledge, by degrees.”
Surah Al Mujadilah 58:11

there is no mention of age, only iman & knowledge.

The Prophet ﷺ also made it clear that seeking knowledge is not optional or limited to a phase in life. He said:

“Seeking knowledge is an obligation upon every Muslim.”

not just the young. not just students. every Muslim. sometimes we feel like it’s “too late” like we should have started earlier, memorised more, understood deeper. but that’s shaitan playing with your mind. in reality, every step you take now still counts, still raises you, still brings you closer to Allah.

even the companions of the Prophet ﷺ continued learning & growing throughout their lives. they never saw knowledge as something you “complete” it’s something you live with.

so whether you’re revisiting the basics, learning to read Quran properly, attending classes, or simply trying to understand your deen better, it is never small & it is never too late.

because in Islam, the one who starts late but is sincere may reach heights the one who started early never did.

seek knowledge not for status, not to be seen but to know Allah better, to worship Him better & to return to Him in a state He is pleased with.
