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. It's not a fleeting shadow, but a storm that can shake her very core, dimming her light, weakening her strength, and stealing her peace. He sees the delicate architecture of her hear...

I have long embraced that I feel things so...



I have long embraced that I feel things so very deeply.
Love, as if my heart would burst.
Sorrow, as many agonizing deaths.
Joy, as though the moon were in my arms
or the entire galaxy in my chest. 
And so I know, that my immortal soul is far greater than my mortal body. And perhaps, when I have returned to my forgotten home,
I'll look back at this world and say that was one helluva ride.
~Suhaib Rumi
