ولا يؤيسك، يا بني، من الخير ما مضى من التفريط؛ فإنه قد انتبه خلق كثير بعد الرقاد الطويل

Ibn al-Jawzi advised his son saying: My dear son, don’t let your past carelessness make you lose hope of achieving good.

For undoubtedly many people have come back to wakefulness after long sleep.

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan gives what he calls “a rant” on the contradictions in our Ummah. I feel this is especially important to the youth, and Ustadh Nouman covers it critically and—most importantly—constructively. Take some time out of your day and check this out, insha Allah.

There’s a lot in this lecture that many young Muslims need to listen to, especially those who are becoming more engrossed into the Din.

A friend will not (literally) share your struggles, and a loved one cannot physically take away your pain, and a close one will not stay up the night on your behalf. So look after yourself, protect yourself, nurture yourself and don’t give life’s events more than what they are really worth. Know for certain that when you break no one will heal you except you, and when you are defeated no one will give you victory except your determination. Your ability to stand up again and carry on is your responsibility. Do not look for your self worth in the eyes of people; look for your worth from within your conscious. If your conscious is at peace then you will ascend high and if you truly know yourself then what is said about you won’t harm you. Do not carry the worries of this life because this is for Allah. And do not carry the worries of sustenance because it is from Allah. And do not carry the anxiety for the future because it is in the Hands of Allah. Carry one thing: How to Please Allah. Because if you please Him, He Pleases you, fulfils you and enriches you. Do not weep from a life that made your heart weep. Just say, ’Oh Allah compensate me with good in this life and the hereafter.’ Sadness departs with a Sajdah. Happiness comes with a sincere Du'a. Allah Does Not forget the good you do. nor Does He Forget the good you did to others and the pain you relieved them from. Nor will He forget the eye which was about to cry but you made it laugh. Live your life with this principle: Be good even if you don’t receive good, not because for others sake but because Allah loves those who do good.

Ibn al-Qayyim (via s-a-b-r)

This morning after I prayed fajr at Masjed Al Nabawi in Medina, everything that was weighing on me surfaced, and I began to cry uncontrollably. An older auntie who had studied with me began to rub my back and say, “This life is like a fake plant. You think it’s real, but it’s not. And you get disappointed. That’s what this life does to you.”

And it was a great reminder, that no matter what hurts you or causes you pain, it’s all temporary. It’s all small. And it’ll all be over because no pain is forever.

I’ve always had these stretch marks and bumps/spots on my arms and legs (keratosis pilaris) and I thought I’d never be able to get rid of them but I’ve been using Paula’s Choice 10% AHA Lotion ($27). everyday for 4-5 weeks straight and I see a difference. this lotion exfoliates your skin to remove older skin and reveal younger skin. thought I’d share if any of you are also dealing with this

I didn’t know they had a body lotion!

Be in no doubt that Allah gives you better in return for that which you left for His sake.

I was really really hoping that I wouldn’t have to, but I’ve added a donate button to my blog: the job I was supposed to have for the entirety of this summer is now offering me a position that won’t begin until August 22nd and because my period of study doesn’t continue for 12 consecutive weeks I am ineligible for any kind of government funding. I’ve applied to basically every job that’s available with absolutely 0 luck and so many of the potential jobs in my university town for the summer require you to have a vehicle, which I don’t. I have at this point no money at all to sustain my stay here and I still have to find a way to pay for my LSAT and OLSAS application that’s coming up and I’m at a complete loss. I’m still in the process for applying for more jobs–hopefully the one that I have in mind will be able to hire me this month, but until then, I have 0 dollars to my name. If you are able to donate anything at all (my paypal is zanabism@gmail.com) or reblog this post or pray for me it would mean so so so much to me. I’m so sorry to even be asking this and I hope you are all doing extremely well.

His name is Bapurao Tajne. This is the worst drought they’ve had in decades but the higher caste villagers said his family weren’t allowed to use the town well because they’re Dalit, a lower caste and deemed “untouchable”. On top of being a day labourer he spent 40 days digging, and without any form of surveying technology or experience he hit water. “I don’t want to name the well owner for I don’t want bad blood in the village. However, I feel that he insulted us because we are poor and Dalits. I came home that day in March and almost cried.” “It is difficult to explain what I felt in those days. I just wanted to provide water for my whole locality so that we Dalits did not have to beg for water from other castes.”
