Syria is calling... We will answer.

Assalaamu Alaykum my dear brothers and sisters in Islam and Humanity.

I am sure you have all heard about the trial that the people of Syria are going through. Wallah some videos i have watched have been truly heartbreaking. This is why i want to take you on a journey with the people of Syria today..

I want you to feel that your a child. Not yet even reached the age of puberty. I want you to imagine walking down the streets of Shaam, like you do every morning to get a piece of bread from the corner shop, your normal routine everyday, except that today is going to be different...
Your walking along, when all of a sudden, you hear the sound of a gunshot.
You try to run away, and in horror you turn around, frightened, all alone, you see a man.
Dressed in green. With a knife in his hand. You begin to scream for help, but no one else is there. He takes you by the arm and forces you to the ground. Your weak, he is strong. Your tears fall down your cheek. And you heart is pounding faster and faster..... "Mama!!!!!". But mamas not there.
"Papa!" .. you scream louder. Hes not there either.The man holds out the knife, and begins to stab you. All you feel is a tingling sharp pain in your stomach. An exruciating feeling you can't even describe "Ya Allah!!!" You cry out. And He is there. He is hearing your cries. *Sabr young child! Allah is with you!*

...The last thing you remember, is taking your last glance at the city around you. You childhood ended here.The very place you would play every weekend with your friends. You were brutally, slaughtered to death.

..O Peoole, Did you feel that? How did it feel just reading that? Imagine those thosands of children who are in a similar situation like this every day in Syria, Palestine, Afghanistan??? Don't we realise that they too are our family? That they too deserved a childhood like us? Don't you realise that these children are Martyrs in the sight of Allah? That Allah has raised there rank high in the hereafter? The question is what are we doing?!! Ask yourself? Have you even made Dua? Wallah dua is the weapon of a beleiver!! Just do it!

How can you sleep at night, knowing a child somwhere is beaten and torutured to death? WHERE IS THE JUSTICE. Give me one child that can be labelled guilty. Just one.
I am telling you now, you won't even find one. Those children are innocent.

Not only children, but men and women alike, our brothers and siters are being ripped apart and tortured for testifying to La Ilah Illa Allah!

Zaid Ibn Thabit (ra) reports that the Prophet (saw) said, "How blessed is Al-Sham"! The Companions (ra) asked, "Why is that"? The Messenger (saw) replied, "I see the Angels of Allah spreading their wings over Al-Sham".

This beautiful, reassuring hadith explains to us that indeed Shaam is a blessed city, Allah has chosen to test this city, because the people within are a people, of patience, taqwa, piety, and courage. They are certain that Allah will grant them victory but do we even have that trust and certainty that they have? Or are we lingering in doubt??

Have faith. Believe. That Allah will bring harship after ease. We as an ummah still need to do our bit, we will be questioned! And the least we can do is answer there call and make Dua!

Imagine your one of the woman who is being torutred and raped? Wouldn't you want people to support and help you?

Arn't those people meant to be us? The followers of Rasulullah (saw)??

Wake up!! Ya Akhi and Ukhti!

Please i ask you guys to make dua now as you read this, and be sincere. Allah wil accept your Dua, indeed He is the Most Kind Most Meciful. We should never lose hope!! Never.

And with that i make a Dua, a dua for my family in Shaam, in palastine, in lebanon- in all the places in the world, who are being brutually mudered. Whose lives at are risk, who are being opressed!

Ya Rabb grant our brothers & sistees sabr, shower your mercy upom them oh Most Merciful! Come to there aid ya rabb, and enter them into the highesr stations of Paradise!
O Allah give them victory over the disbelievers! You never fail i your promise. Accept them as martyrs, and protect our women, men and children. O Allah forgive us for not doing enough and unite the ummah, and make us hell our ummah for your sake!

Aameen!

Please share & let others know.

Wasalaamu alaykum warahmatullah.

Imagination is a vivid place to hide...

Assalaamu Alaykum Ukhtis :)

It has been a long time since i have posted anything on my blog and so today i decided i needed to share something with you guys, something uplifting inshaAllah ...Well, i hope so :)

Okay, so today on this beautiful wednesday afternoon, as i sit sipping away at my mango juice, i thought i'd talk to you guys about those times in your life when you feel all alone. Those times in your life when you feel unworthy, bullied, helpless and down in the dumps, as some may say. They are the times when you feel the world is against you and you feel that absolutely nothing can change the situatuion your in..
Those moments when your tears roll down you cheek, and you sit wiping them away, feeling all confused and lost, you feel the need to just hide away from the world and become invisible.

At the time you may be feeling peered and helpless, but what if i told you that in these times you're not alone. That Allah (swt) your Creator, the Most Merciful is by your side always. He knows the absolute pain your feeling, your broken heart and your every tear that falls from your eye..
HE knows how you're inner thoughts and He Allah (swt) is not going to leave you, it's about YOU knowing and acknowledging that in these moments in your life and also in times of ease, you need no one but HIM. Your Creator who knows you Best.

These hardships that occur in your life are either for you a test or a punishment, and how do you defentriate and know which one it is? If the calamity that befalls you brings you closer to Allah, it is a test and if it takes you away from Allah it is a punishment. However, do you know what the beautiful thing is, it is the fact that Allah (swt) is the Most Compassionate, He says in the Quran 'Call upon Me, I am Near' He wants you to call upon him, with your heart filled with humility and your eyes flowing with tears. That moment you turn to Allah you feel this numinous feeling you can't even describe by words, because your turning to you Lord the Most High, in such a humble heart- softening state! subhanAllah..

These times were not sent by Allah to break you but to make you that stronger person you are today. Each and everything a believer goes through is good for him. He is always in a win win situation. Believe in this!
Even something as small as being pricked by a thorn is expiation for you sins. IMAGINE IT. Imagine your sins falling away! Imagine being purified from filth! Imagine those black dots being removed from your hearts! WOW! This is a time of cleansing and purification of the heart, soul, body and mind!

YOU are getting reward for each moment of your patience and preservance. Just IMAGINE that reward and you will be able to see the beauty and wisdoms of what your going through inshaAllah.

Allah will take care of you and grant you not only heaps of hasanaat, but also a clean fresh mind and heart.

Hmm, so IMAGINATION. Something that Allah (swt) has blessed many of us with. If we didn't imagine then how would we think of those beautiful rewards that await us?

The ultimate reward; Jannahtul Firdaus.

When your feeling all low and stressed out, maybe its all these exams that are causing you to feel like 'You havn't got a life' or maybe someone in the family is extremely ill, then just carry on smiling away, because you have a chance to escape for a bit, take a break and imagine the blue clear skies, eternal boys like pearls at your service, beauiful women surrounding you, dresses of silk, bracelets of gold.. Imagine drinking froms the hand of the Prophet Muhamad (saw), or diving into a river of chocolate, or maybe swimming in an ocean of boost! Whatever it is, take a break and imagine the reward that awaits you, for your striving and struggling each day.

May Allah (swt) grant us all Sabr, and protect us from the evils around us, and grant us the ability to strive in His cause and for Islam, and make us amongst those who enter Jannah :) Aameen!


So thats all i have to say! :D

tc. Keep on Smiling!

Masalaaama!
