Be the kindest! Be the rarest!

Image
 Always. Choose to be kind. In fact choose to be the kindest. You might not know whose heart you will be mending and whose day you will brighten up.  Kindness comes with no cost so why hesitate? Be the kindest soul in this savage world.  Don't be mainstream, be rare! In the world full of Kardashians, choose to be Khadeejah! Give helps, share smiles and hugs. It will really make a difference at least in someone's world. We will receive what we gave because life is like playing a boomerang. If you only give positive vibes, inshaAllah you will receive the same! Be the kindest! Be the rarest! Good luck! Lots of love, Mina

It's definitely love

  Love. A simple word with a deep meaning. There are so many definitions of love and they vary according to people and perceptions. As far as I am concerned, this is my take on love. Sometimes, we thought we will find happiness when we are loved by the one that we love. In short, our happiness happens when our love is reciprocated. But...but...but... had it ever crossed your mind that it is toooo risky to put your happiness on something which is not permanent. On a temporary human being just like you and me.  It is tooo risky to put something that should be eternal on something which is temporary. Of course, we, all of us want our happiness to be permanent to be eternal to be immortal. So, the logic is that something that we want to be permanent should also have a permanent basic or foundation. Human, our very own nature is so much of flaws and when it comes to love, there will be so many expectations that will come together with it. When we put so many expectations on somethi...

Gems for a journey called life

 When you are falling, fall into sujood. When you miss someone, make a lot of duas for them. When life hits you hard, wake up and start again. When you love someone, make sure the foundation of your love is something that is permanent. Don't go for looks. Looks can be deceiving. Go for the characters and akhlaq for they will last forever. Life is short, so live without regrets. Viel gluck! Lots of love, Mina  

Hardship and Us

 There were times when we felt we were at the lowest. Life seems dark and future looks scary. Nothing is on our side. No luck nor dime. And that's what I feel right now. I just lost a job that I had always wanted and to get a new one seems like almost impossible. To be honest, I don't know what to do right now. Tests after tests. I am jobless but still need to pay my bills. And it is hard. To be frank, it's really hard for me. The moment I got the news that I did not get my dream job, I am so frustrated. I lost hope. Then, I took some time and reflect. I told myself, this time I need to be positive. This hardship won't knock me down. It had been 4 years since I graduated from my master programme and since that I am still jobless. 4 years of very tiring job hunting which goes fruitless. Maybe I am not the lucky one. That's it. But, this time, I won't despair. Infiru khifafan wa tsiqalan. Strive whether in ease or in hardship. That's Abu Ayub Al Ansari's l...

Trials and Tribulation

 Some people are born with tornadoes in their life and constellation in their eyes. Life sometimes can be a very difficult thing to handle. Too much pain made us wanna give up on life. Too many people fall prey to the believe that they will forever lead a hideous life. Life will forever be cruel to them. Sadly, this is not true. Nothing in this life permanent. The brevity of life. That's what we called it. Life is temporary so does everything in it. If you are happy, then, your happiness will also be withered away soon. If you are sad, then your sadness will also go away later. So, don't worry, just hang in there. Every difficulty shall pass. But, the question that will arise is that how to handle those temporary torment? Yes it's temporary but it seems forever. Thanks to those pain that comes together with tribulation. Our lord is so merciful. He does not only send us trials and tribulations but He also gives us the correct manual on how to deal with them. Prayers and Pati...
