♥ My Lovely Mother ♥

Dearest Mother,


I love you so much! I love your tenderness, passion, personality and big heart! Thank you for everything, thank you for always being there for me, helping me, loving me, showing me how to be strong, guiding me. Thank you for making me what I am today! I remember the many moments you turned my frown upside down, you listened to my complaints with patience, listened to my detailed description of how my day had gone while taking the time to comment as I talked. The moments when you gave your best to make me happy, to give me everything I need and more! I remember your encouraging words telling me to follow my dreams! Mom, I can never imagine a life without you! You're everything to me!
You're my shelter on rainy days, my safety place away from thunder. You're my best friend and close sister. Your arms around me give me such a feeling of security! I can't imagine how I will feel like when I have to leave..to a new home, a new life with my husband...become independent with responsibilities...live under a different roof than the one you're under.
You're such an inspiration to me! How patient you are, how strong you are, how wise you are, how sweet and caring, loving and tender!
I know one thing is for sure, you're the greatest mom anyone can ever ask for or have! I pray God to keep you safe for me, to grant you a happy and comfortable life in this world, and the highest of places in Jannah! Ameen!

I love you, I love you so much!


Your eldest daughter, ever so thankful for having you,
Dana QK

♥ Perfectly Perfect! :') ♥

This post was inspired by a video (click here to see it) that hubby shared with me, Jazaka Allahu Khayran darling!
                                                                       ~~~~~~~~~
This world is so perfect! Subhanallah...Glory be to Allah who created this world with accuracy and precision beyond any human capability! So perfeeeect! The mountains, the roses, the sky, the water. The composition of material, the way animals mate, and grow! The way our body functions, the way our heart beats, the way our eyes see and our ears hear. The way we have feelings that come out depending on what situation we're in, the way the breeze touches our skin and makes us feel fresh. The way we feel love for a new born baby, or our spouse...who came out of nowhere to be our everything! This world is so perfect, yet us imperfect humans ruin it by feeling hatred, inhumanity, intolerance...by making fights and wars as our number one solution whether in small groups like with families or friends, or in a bigger picture between countries, nationalities and religions!

We were born to build this world...not ruin it! We were born to take care of our souls...not get them lost with wrong decisions.

I feel so thankful for being a Muslim. For learning that peace is the solution. For learning not to look down on others. For learning to love for others what I love for myself, taking care of my parents and family, spreading good in this world. For learning that the true way is the way God has for us in this world, He knows what's best for us because He's our creator! For learning that life is full of obstacles but with faith, love and respect I can get through anything! For learning that this world has an end, we are all going to die one day and be accounted for what actions and decisions we made in life, so never prioritize this ending world over Heaven and working to get there! For learning to pray to God to keep this world in my hand, but the hereafter in my heart. For learning to be successful while remembering it's from God.
I'm also sooo extremely thankful for having Allah swt always there to listen and protect me, to give me what's best for me and to guide me through the bumpy road of life...

I learned a lot of things as I grew up, and I will keep on learning...But one thing is for sure, I can never thank God enough for all the blessings that He has blessed me with, the best of which is being a Muslim!

So Alhamdulelah again and again. Thank you Allah for lighting my way. For showing me the beautiful, breathtaking path of Islam. A path so diverse, with such a strong bond between its followers from everywhere and from all times! I pray you keep me strong and steady on this path, always awed by the never ending miracles you have for us humans to witness in this world.

All praise and thanks are due to Allah! :')

Hmmm...

It's such a blessing that Allah swt kept our mind and heart private, just for us to know what's in them..and Him! Imagine if everyone could tell what your heart is feeling, or what thoughts are running through your mind. I mean sometimes in life, you are forced to respect people...but you can't be forced to love them right? Because that's between your heart and you. These two places are no person's land...just yourself :)

So Alhamdulelah for that blessing!
