Human

I take inspiration to write from the most random and frequent things, they might be things I have seen, heard or even said, over and over again, a particular part of that thing might hit me differently and I'll keep thinking about it over and till I let it out through writing, because that's what works for me
The particular thing that swayed me this time around is a part of Al-Qunuut, Yes the Qunuut we've been listening to since Allah knows when, you ask me what exactly, it's the part where it says Allahumma ja'alnaa nakhshaaka kannanaa naraak, Meaning Oh Allah, let's fret about you, like we are seeing you
The meaning is very self explanatory and very easily comprehendable, the main reason why we sin and act forbiddenly is because we tend to forget that Allah is always watching and is closer to us that we can even comprehend, 
Even in this world, we tend to get scared of certain people of authority like our parents, our bosses and leaders in every setting we might fall into, we follow their instructions and act obidiently and according to the rules so that we won't face their wrath in this world.. 
But to Allah, we do as we like and act like we own ourselves in this world, forgetting the wrath of Allah that's bigger than any authority in this world and his wrath isn't even imaginable or comparable to the one with Allah
We often forget this as humans and act sinfully even after knowing of Allah's punishment, we all sin but we should be remourseful, seek forgiveness sincerely and avoid sins at all cost because Allah is always present!, he's always watching and he'll ask us about everything whether we see it as small or big, there isn't since it's little in the sight of Allah, and let's follow up bad deeds with good deeds always and not forget that Allah is always watching!
  In an Hadith where Jibreel came to the Prophet, he asked him what goodness is, The Prophet replied and said: To worship Allah as if you're seeing Him, and even if you're not seeing him then he's surely seeing you (Bukhari and Muslim) 

Surah Qaf, Verse 16:
وَلَقَدْ خَلَقْنَا الْإِنسَانَ وَنَعْلَمُ مَا تُوَسْوِسُ بِهِ نَفْسُهُ وَنَحْنُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَبْلِ الْوَرِيدِ
And certainly We created man, and We know what his mind suggests to him, and We are nearer to him than his life-vein.

With lots of love

Muhammad (Blessing to Mankind)

 I was listening to a Lecture Series on the Life of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) by Omar Sulaiman and He said: We all love the Prophet and adore him, we feel this delight when we hear his name, our Iman increases when we listen to his story, even after years of listening to it Then He asked this question: Have we asked ourselves that what if the Prophet enters your home today, will you be delighted that same way to welcome him in? Will you be willing to show him around your house? Are they according to those teachings we learnt from him? What will our neighbors say about us, do we treat them like he treated his? And most importantly, what if he asked to see our phones, As in the phones we use, the one you're using to read this? I think we all can feel that beat in our hearts was it positive or negative? I think we know the answers now and we will go back to our drawing boards, to take all those stories from just our heads, and use them in our lives. Allah made the Prophet a role mode...

Gratitude

 Of anything in this life, the importance of gratitude can't be mentioned enough, we find many reason to be grateful for every single thing in our existence, The beauty of being grateful is that more good comes to you, that's how this life works Going to certain places like the hospital, prison and Cemetery really helps, Good health can't be overrated and in our society today we see lots of broadcast multiple times every single day, you'll think one should be used to it by now, but it hits me every time I see it, people suffering not because of their sins or Nothing but because it's meant to be and they still find a reason to be grateful. I went to the Prison about a year and half ago and I can't forget what one woman an elderly woman of about 50 said, She said we won't know the importance of freedom till you're here and that we should avoid anything that'll lead us here, because it's the worst thing that can happen to human being, but that one s...
