2020 Goals

Okay, lets get it!

-Memorize Quran

Committing to memorizing at least 10 ayahs a month (3 - 4 ayahs a week)

Will start with Surat Al Nur *Hides from Riham* I won’t comment on my shame because I clearly have none. SMH.

-Study the Quran

Read the tafsir of the ayahs memorized

-Diet ….

Commit to always eating half a plate of vegetables

-Journaling

Once a week- reflect on the past week and how

-Visiting Silat Ar-Rahm

I see my sibling and parents but I should make it a point to visit my grandparents and uncles and reach out to my cousins! I can be strategic about this.

Visits to grandparents or uncles don’t need to be longer than an hour

Invite all cousins from either side of family at once to a restaurant or home

-Execute Young Adults Camp 2020!

*It is in the works*

-Reading Surat Al Kahf on Thursdays

-Reading Surat Al Mulk before bed at least twice a week

-Read one book every 2 months - Got to be realistic! lol.

Last year my goal was to read 4 books and I read 2

-No music

Not commenting on whether it is haram or not - but I want my heart to be filled with Quran - and I just don’t think you can have both - Wallahu A3lam. Alhamdulilah I really don’t listen to much music anyway but sometimes I do. I want to commit to never turning it on this year.

I will tally my daily/weekly agenda in my planner and make notes end of every month to see how I am doing. 2020 is going to be my year. Inshallah <3

‘Man shouldn’t be able to see his own face – there’s nothing more sinister. Nature gave him the gift of not being able to see it, and of not being able to stare into his own eyes.

Only in the water of rivers and ponds could he look at his face. And the very posture he had to assume was symbolic. He had to bend over, stoop down, to commit the ignominy of beholding himself.

The inventor of the mirror poisoned the human heart.’

[12] days of ramadan

“If you want to get a sense of how fast time passes, see how fast the time passes in Ramadan” - Dad

So true, Dad.

I really wanted to make the most of my Ramadan this year but I don’t feel like I have been :( I am trying but I think I need to try harder.

“They Are Us”

Jacinda Ardern, Prime Minister of New Zealand in Christchurch today.

I’m disgusted and heartbroken that something like this has happened in my country but I am so proud to have this woman lead us. She has called it what it is, a terrorist attack, and has promised to change gun laws in New Zealand.

Sending all my love to the Muslim Community 💕

“Do not walk proudly on the earth; your feet cannot tear apart the earth nor are you as tall as the mountains.”

— Qur’an, 17:37

[z-ndjenja]

I cried to God about it because I couldn’t explain it to anyone else.

“I used to wonder how the pious predecessors were able to recite the Qur’an the entire night and not get tired, but when I saw people busy with their mobile phones the whole night, I was no more astonished. I realised that when the heart loves something it becomes very easy.”

She is obedient,kind and loving towards her husband, ever eager to please him. She is keen of providing an atmosphere of peace. For with her he can find comfort and rest after the exhausting struggle of earning a living. She is one of the greatest blessings Allaah tabarak wa ta'ala may bestow upon a man, and an incomparable source of joy in his life.
