How to feel sorry for people that seem horrible to you

Theres this man, a step dad. He's horrible to my friend and she's been staying with just him since beginning of july. He had what looked like a miniheart attack recently. I cnt feel sorry for him? Whats wrng with me! Help!

Also, friend texted me saying it wasnt a heart attack n he's coming hme tonight. I dnt knw what to say back. I was thinking if he stayed in hospital she'd get a break frm him.

I wanna say "alhamdulillah" but so far ive got "i see" as a reply to the text.

Hw does one deal with stuff like this?!

Ramadan reflections day 24

I’ve been reading the Qur’an obviously, and I’ve been reading the translation alongside it too. I don’t think I need to say the benefits of reading the Qur’an, and especially understanding what Allah is saying to me. But to describe it in a couple of ways - it builds and confirms faith; after all it is what teaches us faith itself. It is comforting, inspiring, educating, scary, powerful, awakening and humbling.

Surah Al-Fath

Beautiful recitation of Surah al-Fath. (And LtS there is FRENCH translation)! Turn the volume up and let it sink into your insides. You will love it. <3

Traveler with the Quran

My love for Arabic is kicking back in. It's kicking me so hard and all i want to do is listen to Arabic. Just want to listen to Arabic all day long and listen to the Quran all day long. I want to write this blog in Arabic but that would be pointless because i'd have to accompany it with English translation. 

The video above is just mind blowing. SubhanAllah, i can't even describe it in words. A child who has lost their eye sight yet at the age of seven has memorised the entire Quran by heart and is so precise in his recall and even has Ijaazah. I just don't even know what to say!

My first ever Chapatti

 

... Made without being forced by my mother. Made without being asked to do so by my mother. Made from the love in my heart. And the realisation that some day soon, I need to start learning even these basic things. I know it's not as perfect and not upto Asian standards but practice makes perfect eh? Some day i will join all you Chapatti masters out there!

 

 

 

Stamps, their sizes and their envelopes. I'm ouzzled.

Phew, I had thought that everything that i had written had disappeared but clicking the back button retrieved it all. Happy days. *Control-V*

Once upon a time if you wanted to send something within your own reach to the reach of another fellow human being you would have to use your legs to go there or you would send a letter addressed in their name. But life become a little easier and more convinient and people become more cleverer and lazier and so, the telephone came about in the 1870s. So this new invention was wonderful.

How do I know if I am being tested or punished?

I watched this video a week or two back. It's beautiful and powerful and I think YOU, yes YOU, person of Revvy who has opened this post should watch, okay? It's definitely one of those must-watch's and so i'd recommend it to you all. I hope it touches you in the same way that it touched me and continues to touch me. It also mentions Rida which i briefly explained in my previous blog. Let me know your thoughts or anything else you want to say.
