I really appreciate all the kind feedback and amazing duas on my piece may Allah accept it and allow us all to reunite with our loved ones in Jannah
I really didn’t think much of it but I’m glad it resonated and hopefully in a good way
Jazakumullahu Khair
Focusing on myself and having self respect 🫡 you can only build up your self confidence by fulfilling the promises you made to yourself and holding yourself to a higher standard in all aspects of life
[Ghafir:21]:
“Have they not traveled through the land and observed how was the end of those who were before them? They were greater than them in strength and in impression on the land, but Allah seized them for their sins. And they had not from Allah any protector.”
Just got the most heartbreaking update on our sister, her symptoms have worsened significantly in the past couple of days. She got a scan at the hospital and should be getting the results today
I ask you all to keep her in your Duas

One thing about anxiety is that it’s never really over it’s like treading water and the waves come in varying intensities- from ripples to ten feeet above your head but no matter what you’re stuck and have to ride it out or let the it sweep you away
“Whenever I think of a test or difficulty in life I wonder “what does Allah have in store for me?” Because Allah is so merciful, He is Ar-Rahman”
I just had to quote this from my dear friends voice note to me. What a beautiful way to view tests in life
May Allah bless her

We are excited to announce that we've finally created a discord server where sisters can read quran together wether it's listening to each others hifdh, muraajiعah or doing subaع together. Here's the link to join🤍
I could dedicate my page to all the kind strangers I come across
The way these seemingly small encounters make me so happy is indescribable. It really is proof of the mercy and greatness of Allah, who created all these wonderful people
A lovely sister from Indonesia gave me a tasbih as a gift this morning and hugged me saying “I love you because of Allah”
🥺 May Allah bless her
I need to take a page out of her book, she reminds me of this hadeeth.
Saw an aunty at the masjid I hadn’t seen in a while and after asking about my time in Somalia she goes “you have that natural hawiye beauty” i still laugh every time I think of it I am perplexed

Just looked at a medium draft after not touching it for a couple weeks and it’s made me so excited to continue it despite my creative block atm
Really a lovely reminder of why I started writing in the first place- simply because I love it
Alhamdulillah
I love making wildly optimistic plans with my friends and encouraging each other with practical advice on how to get there
Discouraging people can get in the bin
Wallahi I’m in tears May Allah bless everyone who shared and donated this aunty is such a beautiful soul and also sent many messages and voice note making the most beautiful dua for
May Allah accept this and grant the sister and her family Khair and Afiyah🤍🤍🤍
My friendships with my girls are some of the most fulfilling relationships, on par with those with my family
Especially those who we love for the sake of Allah
If you’re always banging on about how you don’t get along with other women, take a long hard look at yourself
When women are like “you know how hard it is to be friends with other women?” And “you know, I’ve always hard a hard time relating to other women” and “you know how, as a woman, you find other women threatening?” I simply cannot relate.
Its also something that seeps into every part of life. Deflated with no will to do anything but disappear. But you have no other option to keep going. Only by the mercy of Allah
Self love is a beautiful thing I cannot afford myself. imagine how wonderful it would be to expend the care I throw so carefree to others, inwardly to myself. To flourish despite it all and resume my doting on others, only now without a tired heart and mind. Just imagine.
We ended up at the wrong airport somehow, and this kind taxi driver made sure we made it to the right one on time. He was communicating through google translate and look what he wrote
May Allah reward him immensely
I absolutely love it when people stop me and ask for directions. What an honour that you thought I was approachable enough to ask for help. It’s my absolute pleasure
We’re close to our goal alhamdulillah please keep donating this jumuah
Jazakumullahu Khair
Also got an update alhamdulillah she’s been given a medication to stop the haemorrhage and will need to stay in the hospital for a while though
Keep her and her family in your Duas
70% to our goal May Allah bless and reward everyone who shared and donated
We have a week until we can withdraw the funds so in sha Allah I hope we can reach this goal by then
Jazakumullahu Khair

A little reflection on the small moments that create a beautiful reality 💗
Give it a read 💌
Being in Mogadishu, every day was coated in a sense of novelty and the faint buzz of excitement, despite getting into a routine. Now that I’m back I feel a mix of novelty and nostalgia, revisiting my all too familiar yet different neighbourhood, new and old faces and places.
رجلان حجا بيت الله الحرام وأثناء العودة إلى ديارهما جلسا ف صالة الانتظار بمطار جدة الدولى
فتحدث رجل إلى الآخر وقال الرجل :
أنا أعمل مقاول وقد أنعم الله عليّ
بالحج هذا العام للمرة العاشرة
لا حول ولا قوة الا با الله
May Allah forgive us for not doing enough to protect them
Words can’t even begin to describe the shame we should be feeling as Muslims and the depravity of these animals
حسبنا الله ونعم الوكيل
I like to gentle parent and also bully myself into achieving my goals.
Currently I’m banned from doing any creative writing until I complete my assignments in the next two weeks.
All those unfinished drafts, yearning to be completed. To be whole. A shame.
In my most heaviest and dire moments Allah always allows me to call upon Him in desperation and immediately provides relief subhanAllah alll it takes is turning to Allah alone and realising nobody can save you except Him
Maybe writing it out and remembering Allahs blessing upon me is my way of riding this wave out. I want to lie flat on the ocean surface and drift but I can’t and I won’t. I must continue
Alhamdulillah alaa kuli xaal
The kind of weather where I get endless side eye from the cadaan ppl in my area for wearing a black Jilly
These people get a bit of sun and forget how to act
I used to never wear spf in Somalia bc surely we’ve genetically adapted enough to survive our home climate? I know my ancestors in the badiyo weren’t getting sunburnt I should be fine
