جو ذرا سی پی کے بہک گیا اُسے میٔکدے سے نکال دو

[rose1water]

how could I not weep, while I do not know what will become of me? my lower-self deceives me, my days are passing me, and the wings of death are fluttering over me. so, how could I not weep? I weep for the darkness of my soul and the narrowness of my grave. I weep for the burdens on my back and the Day when all my deeds shall be presented before You.

— Du'a ʾAbū Hamza al-Thumālī (دعاء أبي حمزة الثمالي)

"لوگ کتنے زیادہ ہیں اور انسان کتنا نایاب ہے۔

تعداد میں کثرت ہے، لیکن اصل جوہر (کردار) میں ندرت ہے۔"

There’s a hidden blessing in being misunderstood and rejected by people. It teaches you that the only One you can rely on is Allah.

Because the years of my being lost were more than enough,

I ask You to find me through Your mercy,

so that I may find myself."

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said :

"One of the signs of someone who truly knows Allāh is that

they don't grieve over what they lose,

nor do they become overly happy with what they gain.

This is because they see everything as temporary and fading away,

recognizing that in reality, they are just like shadows and illusions."

[Madarij al-Salikin | 3/318]

وفي النهاية، أنت وأعمالك فقط

And in the end, it's just you and your deeds.

i’ll forever credit Allāh for taking me out of really dark places, beautifully.

Midsommar (2019), dir. Ari Aster

[divine-sp]

Suppose that God announced that you were going to die tomorrow “or the day after.” Unless you were a complete coward you wouldn’t kick up a fuss about which day it was —what difference could it make? Now recognize that the difference between years from now and tomorrow is just as small.

Shut your eyes and see.

“Illness, or a trauma, is not a reflection of an inner shortcoming or failure. It is not a cause to find fault, not with our bodies or ourselves. Illness is another experience, illness is a part of life. It is okay to be unwell. Be gently curious about the experience, pour your love into the places where you are hurting, and see what new awareness blossoms. Every experience offers a gift of deeper understanding and inspiration.”
