What hits home for me is that Allah (swt) will always have everything in my best interests. I may not always understand/imagine how, but 'gratitude' grounds me, gives me a perspective, a truth, that I am not entitled/deserving of all the good things in my life in the first place.

A woman with a small boy came at the door seeking Sadaqah. Looking at the eyes of this boy, I thought to myself, that this is the memory, that will be carried by this boy forever. That, very easily, if Allah swt wished, this boy could be in my place, and I could be in his.

"Then I am where you are."

Be it our Masjids, or be it our homes, the onus is always put on girls/women to do good by religion, family, society- all at once. It is a fact, that men aren't held equally accountable in any domains of the life. Modesty is for both men and women.

I think the sublime confusion is from 19 to 29. You think you are late for everything, nothing is happening, there’s no opportunity for you, the world is closed, everything is a disaster, you wanna die. And then you’re 30. I’m much happier at 53 than I was at 23.

There is nothing more certain than death. And, there is nothing more humbling than the death of a loved one. Everyone I love, will pass away one day. That frightens me. But, what hurts the most is when I see them in excruciating physical & emotional pain while they are living.

Correct me if I am wrong. When the tragedy of Hyderpora, and Rambagh happened, none of these RJs, not once, condemned those staged killings or expressed any grief. They waited for cries and anger to die down. Never understood why people follow and engage with them.

Sitting casually in the sun with my mother; having the conversations we have never had before. Trying, willing to make up for the absence of my father. Cooking the best Haakh' of my life for her, & she eating it with same fondness– has altogether made up for a very kind Ramadan.

We grieve collectively. Maybe, that is the only consolation. Or, is it really? Because, three days later, there will be three more killings. And, we shall all grieve again. This cycle of grief never ends. Pray to Allah swt that he uproots this tyrant regime. Because only He can.

It’s an honor to be in grief. It’s an honor to feel that much, to have loved that much. Grief says to me: “You will never love anyone the way you loved.” And I reply: “I am willing for that to be true.” Grief says: “You will never hear that laugh again.” I say: “I am willing.”
