To mark my 300th post, I'm sharing a collection of poems by Mahmoud Darwish. His powerful words offer deep insights into love and separation. Enjoy! I love you despite the nose of my tribe, my city and the chains of customs. But I'm afraid if I sell everyone, you will sell me and I'll return with disappointments. 'I felt like my homeland was occupied again.' Out of my ignorance I called you a homeland, and I forgot that homelands are taken away. Drink your coffee, embrace the silence, do not take people seriously, do not take life upon yourself, do not exaggerate your emotions, and do not please anyone against your will. Don't befriend me for a day, and leave me a month. Don't get close to me if you're going to leave. Don't say what you don't do. Be close or get away. A University degree, four books and hundreds of articles and I still make mistakes when reading. You wrote me 'good morning' and I read it as 'I love you'. Poetry an...

Laylat al Qadr


IN RAMADAN: THE NIGHT OF POWER
EASY WAZIFA FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY

لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ
Laylat ul-Qadri khayru min alfi shahr.
The Night of al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months. (Surat al-Qadr, 97:3)
.
Our worship on LaylatalQadr is so precious! Also, when you read Surat al-Qadr, Allah ﷻ will dress you on each letter with the secret of the above verse. That is a gift from Allah ﷻ to ProphetMuhammad ﷺ and from him to his Ummah, specifically to those who are fasting Ramadan!

WAZIFA LAYLAT AL-QADR
100 to 1000 times Surat al-Ikhlas;
100 to 1000 times Laa ilaaha illa-Llaah;
100 to 1000 times Salawat ala 'n-Nabi ﷺ.

It was here that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) received the first revelations of the Holy Quran in Laylatul Qadr in Ramadhan 610 CE.
Syeda Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated:
“I said:
‘O Messenger of Allah, what is your view if I know when the Night of Al-Qadr is, then what should I say in it?”
He said:
‘Say:
“Allāhumma innaka `Afuwwun [Karīmun], tuḥibbul-`afwa fa`fu `annī.” (O Allah, indeed You are Pardoning, [Generous,] You love pardon, so pardon me .)
[Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3513]
Hazrat Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
“Whoever spends Laylat al-Qadr in prayer out of faith and in the hope of reward, will be forgiven his previous sins.”

[Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1910; Muslim, 760.]

Laylaitul Qadr is not only better than 1000 months, but it could be just that ONE night that changes your life around.

Ya Allah! Allow us all to witness Laylatul Qadr this Ramadan. Don’t make this our last Ramadan! Please grant us the opportunity to witness many more Ramadans in good health with all the people we love! Ameen!

There is no compulsion to recite more than 100 times. Insha'Allah we will all be granted that. ❤️❤️❤️
