'SisterHood', As Defined in Our Own Way :)

Bismillah. Assalamu'alaykum!


Mode: Happy


[Me] Assalamu'alaykum my kakak! My oh my. i wish there's a bro like u so that i can marry him :D
Miss u n ur sister. Hope to c u girls soon inshaAllah :)



‎[Sis P] :O

[Me] What does ':O' suppose to mean?? :D

[Sis P] hehe, i first read n went like 'waaaaaaat!' in my head, so i comented such. haha


[Sis Q] Wa alaikum assalam wrt wbt my super cool adik!

Lol! what a lovely msg! hehehe! I wish the prince who forgot his way or lost his horse saw this msg! :P 

Miss you more my dear! see you soooon habibti ♥ ♥ ♥


As i posted to my dear friend's FB wall (Sis Q). We used to tease each other, what a great couple we could be with a spouse of each other's personality- uhuh. we are that close as sisters that we could joke around this way. Alhamdulillah. So don't get us wrong! We are normal human beings with normal fitrah Allah has created. We don't fall in love with girls.. :)

And she replied (So did her lovely younger sister- Sis P). Haha.


*Guess i really miss all of my friends, or dearer to call them my 'sisters', who i love for Allah's sake..*

"There are some people who your heart knows so well that you count their company as one of your greatest blessings of this life.."
As posted by another sister.. My, oh my.. You read my mind ;) 


***********************************************

I always have fun with you all whenever we get together. 

How our gatherings always bring serene, happiness and tranquil to my heart. Deeply immerse in  warm, soothing sense of love- deep in the heart, the ONLY place which holds one's eman.. 
*Did i describe it correctly?*

How we spent our good time sharing stories, lessons learned throughout the day...
And the best part of it, how we came to relate all these with Islam. Awesome! MashaAllah..


How we remind each other of taqwa and patience in times of hardship and remind each other to say 'thank you Allah!' in times of ease.


How you girls rush to be the first to conceal each others' faults and giving your  hands to correct me while being the best advisor/counsellor to one another when i'm truly in need. Surprised to know you girls really get to know each others' updates so quick! Good WCCC, i'd to say. Wireless-care-and-concern connection ;)


MashaAllah.

I really thank Allah for all these great blessings:
  • righteous (and fun!) companions (and Allah knows best). 
  • sweetness of faith and the 'eman-rush'.
  • All the good times we had in remembering, talking about and calling for Allah (and will always continue experiencing them, inshaAllah). Recalling on those moments we were in troubles (and we could still laugh? LOL) Cool. Guess this 'emergency moments' is one of our best teachers (!) to teach us beautiful patience, total reliance and hope on Allah. Another best part of it, we faced all these amazing facets of life together, biithnillah.
  • The chance to improve ourselves to be better muslima.. 
This is what i called "Sisterhood", just the way we define it. ;)

Life is awesome with this awesome deen of its awesome people, who choose to believe its awesome gift of life offered. 

Alhamdulillah.
Thank you Allah.

A post to appreciate

This is Love


Bismillah..

How often we try to define what is LOVE and yet no justification can ever made to re-ensure what LOVE really means to us..

Look into your heart now my love, who IS there in your heart?

THIS IS LOVE..

"..there are at least 2 types of love. There will be some people you love because of what you get from them: what they give you, the way they make you feel. This is perhaps the majority of love—which is also what makes much of love so unstable. A person’s capacity to give is inconstant and changing. Your response to what you are given is also inconstant and changing. So if you’re chasing a feeling, you’ll always be chasing.  No feeling is ever constant. If love is dependent on this, it too becomes inconstant and changing. And just like everything in this world, the more you chase it, the more it will run away from you.

But, once in a while, people enter your life that you love—not for what they give you—but for what they are. The beauty you see in them is a reflection of the Creator, so you love them. Now suddenly it isn’t about what you’re getting, but rather what you can give. This is unselfish love. This second type of love is the most rare. And if it is based in, and not competing with, the love of God, it will also bring about the most joy. To love in any other way is to need, to be dependent, to have expectations—all the ingredients for misery and disappointment."


Once you begin to see everything beautiful as only a reflection of God’s beauty, you will learn to love in the right way: for His sake. Everything and everyone you love with be for, through and because of Him. The foundation of such love is God. So what you hold onto will no longer be just an unstable feeling, a fleeting emotion. And what you chase will no longer be just a temporary high. What you hold, what you chase, what you love, will be God: the *only* thing stable and constant"

A post specially made for the-confused me.
May Allah make HIM the most beloved to us. Aamin..

And Allah knows best.
Wassalam..


*Let your love be WITH HIM, BECAUSE OF HIM and FOR HIM*

But She's Different


But She’s Different

Seeing her being likeable by all people in her circle, hearing good things (almost on everything!) about her from every people who knows her, with her personality who always seems to be happy and making people around her happy with her presence- makes you wonder, “Who is this girl?”

Glaring at her once, you might say, “She seems normal, just like other ordinary Muslim women.” She prays five times a day, just like others. Ok, her hijab- she wears proper hijab; loose and modest clothing, she covers herself well, just like many others. Her friends- She seems to be making friends with everyone, not a big deal! But after spending more time with her, you came to learn more about her. You came to learn one beautiful thing about her which distinguishes her from other ordinary Muslim girls- HER AKHLAQ. It’s her beautiful manners that make her different. It’s her beautiful heart, beautiful soul- attract you most. You have met many Muslim women but she’s different...

She’s always happy. And she makes you feel happy too. You wonder why. Why you feel different in her company? Why do you feel so peaceful and tranquil being in her presence? Now you understand why. She may seem to be ordinary on the outside, but from the inside she is extraordinary. She’s a girl who tastes the joy of faith.  True indeed, “Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest...” (Ar-Ra’d:28)

She observes her duties as a believing woman to her Lord well. So does her towards HIS creations. She’s kind, nice, friendly and generous to all her sisters. She observes her speech- she tries best not to lie even when she’s joking nor she backbites. She speaks nothing except what’s good and beneficial. She observes her actions- not to be hasty nor does she want to act foolishly. She thinks wisely before acts. Then you realize, every single moment you spend with her increase you in knowledge, good deeds and most importantly- your faith. Above all these, you learn that the only thing which drives her to be as such is only one simple concern: “Is Allah pleased with me? Is Allah happy with me?”

Now you wonder why you can’t be like her.
Ukhty, you have the answer.

Yes you can. All you have to do is just start being one. Set the right intention-to please Allah alone. Then strive to do things (in your utmost capability) which please Allah most. Know this: what pleases Allah will please others whom HE is pleased with as they are pleasing HIM too...

So start today. Don’t delay...
May Allah be your best Supporter and best Companion, assisting you to be different and better than yesterday, inshaAllah? Yes. InshaAllah... InshaAllah...

Till we meet again. Wassalamu'alaykum...
