Be a blessing


As salaam alaikum Reader,


I pray this message finds you well. And I pray this message is a blessing for you in some shape or form.

Sayidina Ali (ra) is quoted to have said to be like the flower who gives its fragrance even to the one that crushes it. I will admit to you that since I heard this statement it didn’t always sit easily with me. I heard it as, be nice to people, even if they treat you like crap… and that just didn’t sit right. However, I’ve grown to take something slightly different from this simple statement, and that is this… be a blessing, whether people recognize it or not. Let your presence in a space be a blessing… a blessing for those that see you as such, as well as those who don’t.

So it’s not about the other people, places, or situations… it’s about you, and me…be a blessing. Occupy that space of receiving and pouring forth from the one who is Kareem and Rahim, generous and merciful with His creation.

Sometimes we may hold back from dispensing or giving what we have because of lack of appreciation, but on a certain plane it doesn’t even matter if the blessings are appreciated. They are still just being themselves… a blessing.

So we can be like that flower, everyone gets a bit of our goodness when they share space with us. That’s a beautiful place to be, MashAllah.

May Allah make us among those who are reminded and remind others of Him and His tremendous blessings.

With love

Wa salaam alaikum

As salaam alaikum Reader, I pray this message finds you well. SubhanAllah, I've not written in quite some time and my intention is to get back into it.

As salaam alaikum Reader, I pray this message finds you well. I want to share with you that I've always felt there was something special about women that Allah has kept to Himself...and has left purposefully somewhat clouded in mystery in this world. Allah is very specific about how Adam was created, but for women He tells us only that we were created from the rib of Adam. Allah is very specific about a mans role in a marriage, as maintainer, provider, and protector; but for women He is more...
