Ramadan Anchors

Alhamdulillah Robbil Alamin. And now we come to the end of this year's Ramadan. It's been an incredible journey of faith. Here's praying that all goodness, bounties and our forthrightness remain long its departure. Aamiin.

The gentlest and the most blessed of all soul, Muhammad ibn Abdullah. May Allah be pleased him, and us and May He fill our heart with His love and the ove for His Prophet Muhammad Al-Mustapha (SAW). Aamiin

In places and states are the orphans, the weary, the tired and the scared ones who are our brothers and sisters. Please remember them in your Dua. Pray for their safety as much as their victory against their enemies seen and unseen. We pray Allah answers our collective Dua on their behalf and make easy all our affairs. Aamiin.

Our faith in Allah works when we work especially when we request from Allah, things that truly matter to us. It is important that we work our dua with striving for goodness and striving in righteousness to those around us. May Allah be pleased with our work, our dua and our soul and may He bless us more than we have requested. Aamiin.

Success to many has to be tangible and may mean different things. For you Dear Young Muslim Soul, it is knowing that Allah will always meet you at the point of your needs as many times as you call upon Him, trust Him and hold onto His words with goodness. An Enduring Success lasts you through the storm and beyond the brightness. It stays with you always. And that is Allah's mercy. Al Falāh.

Waiting can be tough. But it is important that part of our khushoo' (focusing on only Allah) is trusting the timing of the manifestation of our dua. May Allah grant us patience to wait soulfully and wholeheartedly with Him as grants all the dua that will be great for us in this world and in the hereafter. Aamiin.

Sometimes, we don't have the exact words to convey our yearnings. Even when we know, Our Lord already knows what we want. That struggle to put our wants into words can be painful. Here's letting you know that even Silence can be your dua just as the Cave of Hira was a safe space for our Prophet Muhammad (SAW). Our Lord hears your silence just as loudly as though you've spoken. May you always find your Silence Soulful and Love-filled with your Lord. Aamiin.

In His Presence, know that He is as you want Him to be. Friend, Confidant, Beloved and Loving, Benefactor and Forgiving. So, ask Him all. Ask Him whole. He already knows, you just have to trust Him.

Begin your dua with the knowledge that You are not insignificant. You are worthy of being heard. Know that every whisper and utter that you make in seeking the goodness of Allah will be granted to you with belief, trust, Certainty with which you make them. May Allah grant each and every request you make in the manners that will make you pleased with your Lord. Aamiin.

There are duas and there are intentional Duas. This Ramadan, take special care to mention your Parents to Allah with a heart full gratitude and emotion for every sacrifice they keep making to see you thrive in this world. May Allah honour our Parents and grant them best of this life and there hereafter. Aamiin.
