When Allah Says "Not This", It's Still Love

There was a time when every night ended in tears, every silence became overthinking, every uncertainty felt frightening, and every unanswered question weighed heavily on my heart. I mistook delays for disappointments, closed doors for loss, and broken expectations for abandonment. But now I see what I could not see then. Allah was not depriving me, He was protecting me. Every path that never opened, every mixed signal that disturbed my heart, every plan that fell apart, and every feeling that never settled... they were all acts of His mercy.  Even the things I forced myself to hold onto, hoping they would work out, were gently taken away before they could leave deeper wounds.

A Beautiful short story of an Army officer

Story of an Army officer💚

An army personal enters an ATM cabin in Khwaja Bagh area of Baramulla. He withdraws one hundred 
rupees from it, places the note neatly in his wallet. Next day, he returns again and withdraws the 
same amount from the ATM.
.
.
Then he goes on like this for many more days to come. The guard at the ATM notices this wacky act but 
refrains from inquiring about the same, given the old and deep rooted fear of men in uniform. He 
resists for days, few more and many more.
.
.
On a day when there are few civilians around, he musters the courage to ask, for he believes if the 
army personal gets enraged over him, the civilians around will rescue him from his wrath. The guard 
proceeds to ask: “Sahab, Why do you withdraw only hundred rupees from the ATM? Why do you trouble 
yourself on daily basis when you can withdraw a hefty amount that will last for weeks?” .


The army personal rubs his forehead as he looks tired; tucks his trousers properly and before he makes his way out of the cabin, tells the guard who is waiting for the answer anxiously: “The mobile number linked to my bank account is used by my wife at home. When I withdraw cash from the ATM, she gets the message on her mobile phone. This way, she comes to know that her husband is alive”. 💚✌  -Ambivertsyed
