The Sick and Sickly


As Muslims and true Believers we are strongly encouraged to remeber that oppurtunities to do charitable deeds, deeds of righteousness are just so many, unlimited in number and unrestricted by time,

Let us not waste that fountain oppoturnities, golden oppoturnities, let us do of soul-searching and let us summon our resevoirs of immense good feelings,

Just like feeding the poor and needy, a particularly good deed we can do is to visit an elderly, an ailing person, someone very sick and sickly, someone who is sad, lonely and pale, as pale as the white lily,

Let us find space in our lives to visit the sick and sickly and make todaya day of purpose, a day worth living, a day both fair and lovely,

A day to visit someone who is ill, perhaps very ill, for he or she may be in most need of kind words and kind deeds, in need of tender and comforting words, in need of touch so warm and loving,

Let us wish that someone a speedy recovery for there is so much in terms of Allah's love and Mercy if we find time, if we indulge our time, to visit our sick and sickly acquaintances, friends and kinsmen, if we make enquires about their health, thier ailments, if we visit them more often.


Life is not perfect and there is no pic-perfect life for anyone. Sometimes we are well, sometimes we are unwell and there are times when we experience life-threatening illness, times when we have to fight against terminal illnesses, protracted illnesses, rare disorders, rare diseases, such dreadful diseases.

Life is also unpredictable, so uncertain. Death may come stealthily, may come suddenly. For this reason, let usgive something that is uniquely ours to give .Let us bring cheer to the sick, sickly and lonely and let us visit more frequently.

More importantly, we are steering our hearts to the way Allah SWT wants them to be, Only then do wehave the right to appeal to His compassion and great Mercy.Let us take with us gifts od our du'a, Let us visit with no motive except to gain Allah's lavish treasures and favours,endless favours,

For they may feel weak, frail, sick, lonely and distressed, they may feel so alone, so lonely, so much fear unexpressed.An elderly and a sick person abandoned by family and friends, will be broken and crushed, just like the fragile, the delicate wings of a butterfly,if crushed, that butterfly can never fly into the sunshine again, It is barely able to flutter on the warm white sand. It lies on the ground, so still and quiet. Slowly, very slowly, it turns lifeless. Its life is spent.

Sometimes, thos of us who are blessed with good healthcan get inspirationfrom our sick friends, We even envy them for the quality time they have already spent doing so many vrtuous, righteous charitable deeds, For we know that though short is the time,little is the gift of time they have left, they have carved a beautiful life for themselves, maby good deeds they hve accomplished,

They fear less, they regret less, even though they know that for them, and surely for us too, time, precious time, will diminish. Although they are no longer in high spirits and at times they live in fear and uncertainty, neither do they lament or cry out in self-pity nor do they drown themselves in a sea of misery,

As the sun beams in through the windows, we see thier faces lit up with the joy and sweetnessof Iman (Faith), the joy of knowing, deriving strength from knowing, that they tried their best to makeuse of the time that they have had in this world.

So to the sick n' sickly...Get Well Soon....Especially to My Very Special Friend...Assalamualaikum.

Love from Mothers (Guidance) 2

You knew with your gentle reminders i would not be able dispel the darkness, i would be wandering through the dark trees and forests, through the earth, through the spaces of land and sea, in dreadful darkness, total darkness, bearing with me no gift of Alla's  love and guidance.
Now that i am grown up, thrown into a world of of human interaction and has to deal with many unpleasent real-life situations, turbulent situations,

I have learnt that life is not about constantly finding the best solution for there is no qiuck fix to problems, no fast solutions, there are no perfect solutions,

I have learnt thatif we have turst and faith in Allah SWT, there will be less frustration, tension, friction, and less aggression,

Even if we are greif sticken, we willnot sink into depression, deep-sated, severe depression, total depression.

Some feelings cannot be put  ito words, but i try using words, a thousand words, to say how much i love you and it is to you, dear heart, the sunshine of my heart, that i want to express my appreciation and devotion.

With heartfelt emotion i say thank you, mother, for guiding me, leading me, from the profound state of spiritual awarness and growth to spiritual progression, spiritual elevation.

"(He) has made me kind to my mother, and not overbearing or miserable ; So peace be on me the day i was born, the day i die, and the day i shall be  raised up to life (again)"    (Maryam 19:32-33)



Narrated Ibn 'Abbas (r.a), Sa'd bin 'Ubada (r.a) asked Allah's Messenger,(may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him),(for his legal opinion) saying : "My mother died and she had an unfulfilled vow." The Porphet (may peace and blessings froma Allah be upon him) said,"Fulfill it on her behalf."
(Al-bukhari-Hadith No.2761)

The Hadith above gently reminds that it is out obligation, our sacred duty, to take special care of our mothers, to show our loving concern to our Mothers, for it is to them that we owe a large debt of grtitude, our deep gratitude. Even after they have died ther are deeds, righteous, virtuous and heartfelt deeds, which we can do on their behalf to show our filial devotion, sincere love and devotion.

This is a reminder to me and everyone else that Mothers are very precious...without mothers, you would not have been what you are right know...it is really hard to succes on this world and afterlife because Mothers are the very first teachers you meet..Thye teach you everything they know to get you prepared for the real world, afterthat,the rest is up to you  whether you want ot sucess in life or not.
I hope everyone can appreciate their mothers' because once a mother is gone, no one on earth can replace her.

Sorry about making 2 chapters of "Love for Mothers (Guidance)".....i though it was a BIT too long (it IS REALLY long actually)...LOL :D
Hope everyone understands in what i am saying....Assalamualaikum..

Love from Mothers (Guidance) 1

I was a young child, still growing, still developing,
I walked, i ran and i tripped,

From one brightness to another, from one darkness to another,

And, you wre always there caring for me, embracing me, gently and tenderly embracing me, with all a mother's affection,

In an atmosphere  of love and devotion and never displaying any sign of exhaustion.

You taught me how to make the best of my judgement, how i must not cloud my emotions, how i must make decisions on my own and how i must gain confidence,

You were my source of inspiration and your words of inspiration provided me with strong motivation,

Most of all, you built a strong foundation for my faith and inspired me to learn all about Islam, my religion.

You guided me to the Straight Path, the Path towards Allah SWT, reminded me to establish regular prayers, love and fear for Him, reflect and contemplate upon the greatness of His Creation.

You reminded me not to follow the trail, not to walk among the wrong-doers, among people of disobedience and arrogance, those who were given to oppresion and tangression, but to keep in the company of the good-doers,the true Believers and Worshsippers , the many people out there who turned to Allah in sincere devotion,

You knew my ignorance and my negligancewould have caused me to tossed on the roaring water of the ocean, troubled waters, treacherous waters, hitting the dangerous rocks, would have cuased me to sail in the direction of darkness and desolation,

The Past


The past is something that nobody can forget.People might say 'leave the past to the past'....but i will always say,'keep the past to yourself and never forget it....learn from it..' Have you thought to yourself  that each second, you are actually leaving something that you will never get back....and at each second, you keep on wasting your time in things that are not meant to be wasted on....Time is precious...Once you waste you time, you will not get it back....Maybe history or the past can rewind but Time will never turn back, it will keep on going and going.....You will feel regretful if you dont manage your time well, but if you use time well enough, you will feel exactly what i have felt...and that is 'satisfied'.You will know by then that It is good to use time than Waste it. :D 

i hope everyone understands about what i am trying to say..."You should use Time before Time leaves you"...LoL, too many "Times"...Thats all for the time being.
Assalamualaikum.... :)

Remember Allah Anytime, Anywhere :D

A Past to remembered


If I’m not there to help you prepare for this next chapter of your life, to help you decide who to spend your life with, to be there to share your joys and sadness, your giggles and your painful tears, know this...

Know that no matter who you find, he is not your Mr. Right; Allah is. HE is the One to depend on. HE is the One who will make everything alright. Allah is and always will be your BF (Best Friend).
When things are good, be grateful to HIM, and when things aren’t so good, cry to HIM.
Know that your success isn’t in being the world to this lady. Your success, your worthiness is from Allah. You are not incomplete without her.

Don’t try to change her in to someone she is not. Don’t nag her to get your way and don’t be afraid to love her. But love moderately. Maintain your own happiness. Don’t become so full of her that you are empty inside. Fill your being with the remembrance of Allah.

Know that you will have ups and downs. That’s normal. And know that when you have downs, it doesn’t equal divorce. Know that if you distance yourself from him(Allah), he may distance himself from you too, so don’t be afraid to be the first to come back.

Remember to make her feel important and appreciated. If you don’t, who else will? Know that if you want the lady of your dreams, become the man of your own dreams first.

Remember you have faults too. Work on them before you correct hers. 

Know that even though you saw your father and I smile and play, and you saw me greet him at the door when he came home (even if I just saw him), that I too had a tear-stained prayer mat. But I stayed. Because I knew you needed me.
Know that I want happiness and love for you. Better than what I had myself. And know that the only way to get it is by sticking to Allah.





That is some of the things my mother said to me after my father divorced her. She wanted me to know that if i want to love someone love her with all your heart, but always remember Allah is the one to be remembered and thanked....


Sad story, Aiyy?...LOL. :D , this time i wrote this to everyone who had and felt the same thing as i felt, that you should appreciate the people that LOVE you and the people that YOU love...if your love is not returned, remember Allah has reasons for that....only you alone know that reason....Stay strong and never give up, Pray to Allah, remember he is always with you..Assalamualaikum..
