ALHAMDULILAH 🥹🥹🥹 please pray for me when you hear this, PLEASE.

Khushu’ is when the heart arrives before the body stands.

Du’a for khushu:

Allahumma arzuqnā khushūʿan fī ṣalātinā, wa nūrًا fī qulūbinā, wa ḥuḍūrًا maʿak fī kulli ʿibādah.

O Allah, grant us humility in our prayer, light in our hearts, and presence with You in every act of worship.

On ghaflah (heedlessness):

Ghaflah isn’t forgetting Allah, it’s remembering Him while the heart is elsewhere. The tongue moves, the body stands, but the soul is distracted.

A short reflection:

Ghaflah often sneaks in quietly. We still pray, still make dhikr, still say Alhamdulillah but our thoughts wander, our worries speak louder, and our hearts feel distant. It’s not rebellion; it’s neglect. And Allah, in His mercy 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂 keeps inviting us back.

Soft tips to move from ghaflah to khushu:

• Pause before worship. Even 10 seconds to breathe and say “Bismillah” or “Allahumma ḥaḍḍir qalbī” (O Allah, make my heart present).

• Lower the noise. Too much scrolling, rushing, and multitasking hardens presence. Khushu grows in quiet.

• Understand one line. Choose a single ayah or dhikr you understand deeply, let it anchor you.

• Speak to Allah honestly. Tell Him when you feel distracted. Presence begins with sincerity, not perfection.

• Consistency over intensity. Small, regular moments of mindful worship soften the heart over time.

Closing reminder:

Ghaflah is not the end it’s just a signal & every signal is an invitation to return ♡

Oh Allah forgive us, guide us and bless us.

As we close the door on 2025 and quietly step into a new year, and into the sacred month of Rajab, this episode is an invitation to slow down. To choose intentions over pressure, softness over survival, and return over perfection. Not to become someone new overnight, but to walk back to Allah gently, honestly, again and again.

Allahuma barik lana fi Rajab wa Shaban wa Ballighna Ramadan, Ameen ya Rabbil Alameen ♡

**You are not behind. You are being refined.**

✨ Faith in the Waiting ✨

Dua is answered in ways we may not see right away. Waiting is not silence from Allah—it’s His wisdom at work. Trust the delay, for Al-Mujeeb always responds.

A gentle seed in hearts will grow,

Guided by mercy’s light, our souls will shine.

This divine gift of peace will spread,

A beacon of hope in every night.

As a lantern in the darkest hour,

Allah’s light will forever guide us.

Though moments fade, the goodness we sow,

In kindness, will forever endure.

Salaam Alaykum 🤍

When fear fills your heart, let faith in Allah flood it with peace.

Fear whispers doubt, but faith whispers Allah is enough.

True peace begins the moment you place your trust in Allah.

Fear may shake you, but tawakkul anchors you.

When you let go of fear, you fall into Allah’s mercy.

Salaam Alaikum! Eid Mubarak Lovelies 🤍

Taqabbalhu Minna Wa Minqum! I hope you had a lovely day and spent your Eid in peace and happiness.
