Women should not be sad?

Imagine moonlight whispering secrets to a flower bowed by dew. That's the tenderness in Allah's words to women in the Quran:  " Do not be sad ."  These aren't just words; they are luminous embraces meant to soothe the soul. See how gently He speaks:  "So that her eyes may find coolness and she would not grieve." (Al-Qasas)  It's like a soft hand wiping away tears.  Again,  " That their eyes may find comfort and they may not grieve." (Al-Ahzab)  A promise of solace. Even in moments of great trial,  "Do not grieve," (Maryam) a whisper of hope.  And again, a double blessing: "Do not fear and do not grieve." (Al-Qasas) Why this repeated tenderness? Because Allah, in His infinite wisdom, understands that a woman's sorrow resonates deeply.

The day of Arafah

HADITH: HAJJ IS ARAFAH
(MONDAY, JULY 19TH)



O Muslims! Prophet Muhammad said, "Al-Hajju Arafah, Hajj is Arafah." You can miss any of the principles of Hajj (by mistake) and Hajj is still accepted as you can make it up by sacrificing an animal, but if you miss Arafah, even if you perform tawaaf, sa’ee, etc., it is not considered a valid Hajj. Hajj is to stand in that wide, sandy valley, with nothing in it; they carry in water and food to survive. What is there? JabalRahmah, the mountain where Allah Blă manifested the Mercy to Prophets, who took his #Sahaba to that place to taste the difficulty. When you suffer in #dunya, you receive rewards in the next life. There, Allah la wants to test Muslims' patience. You stand in that vast valley and all Muslims say in one voice, “Labbayk Allahumma labbayk, labbayk Allah shareeka laka labbayk, There is no partner for You, O my Lord! You are The Creator and we are here at Your service!"
~ Shaykh Hisham Kabbani

Few poems by Mahmoud Darwish💕

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...
