Love for what you hope for
Fear of losing it
Doing all that you can to attain it

paraphrased from Ibnul Qayyim’s book of ‘ad-daa wad-dawaa’

Attempt to stay up after Fajr.
Read a few pages of the Qur’an after Fajr. Make duaa and plan out your day.
Write down ALL the things you want to accomplish on that day and make sure you accomplish them all.
Do not procrastinate. Do not be lazy. The cure to...

So I’m not a hoarder, per se.
But I tend to subconsciously collect and keep…
chocolate chip cookies, everywhere. They eventually get consumed, but I tend to purposefully forget I have some only to make more and buy different brands.
Cookie mixes, unfinished boxes, home-made, etc. are found everywhere. Just when I think I ate a whole batch and sit in dismay at my sad state, I find...
Truly & honestly ask yourself what you’re living for.

“Everyone wants to be a Nigga but nobody wants to be a Nigger”. This was a forum held at my University I went to today which tackled the issue of the usage of the word; including history, influence on our youth, on us, our communities, etc. Although I don’t use the word, it opened my eyes and was quite insightful.

The world is in havoc, it’s burning, it’s smoldering, broken, ruined. Oppression doesn’t end before another begins. Injustice, vile rulers, bloodshed, corruptness. But before you jump up & down in frustration to save the world; focus on the following:
Tawheed
your Eeman
your `Aqeedah
your Minhaj
your akhlaaq
your patience
trust in Allaah.
Without those components, you...

Word of advice: When you seek to debate the deen with me [you being Muslim], either provide me with evidence from the Qur’an and Sunnah or don’t bother. I’m not here to debate because frankly, there is nothing I have to debate. I hear and I obey from the Qur’an and Sunnah. We can debate about whether cheddar cheese or provolone should be used in my mac & cheese meal...
