Whispers of the Angel

I have heard death's whispers many times. It calls me like an old friend— a friend I’d rather stay away from, but a friend nonetheless.

He does not knock, nor does he wait for permission. He walks like shadow beside me, scary—but dutiful. An angel, bound not by malice, but by obedience to my Lord.

He does not speak. He simply stands when my soul trembles in sujood, when the wind stills at night, when my heart aches for things it cannot name.

He has seen the faces of kings and children, the lovers of dunya, and the lovers of Allah.

To the heedless, he comes like lightning— To the prepared, like a quiet pull toward home.

Sometimes I wonder if he’s near, when I can’t sleep. When my mother’s voice trembles in du’aa. When I feel too heavy for this earth, and too sinful for the sky.

But I know… He only moves when my Lord commands. He has no power of his own. He is not cruel. Just certain.

So I wait, not with eagerness, but with submission. Not with longing, but with hope.

That when he comes, he will not find me empty. He will not find me far.

Let him find me with Qur’an on my lips, and Allah in my heart. Let him take me, if I am ready.

And if I am not… then let me live only to become so.

-Ruhaya 🤍

Ameen 🤍

All the doors to God are crowded except for one: the door of humility and humbleness.

97:1

إِنَّآ أَنزَلْنَـٰهُ فِى لَيْلَةِ ٱلْقَدْرِ ١

Behold, We revealed this (Qur'an) on the Night of Power.

یقینا ہم نے اتارا ہے اس (قرآن) کو لیلۃ القدر میں۔

97:2

وَمَآ أَدْرَىٰكَ مَا لَيْلَةُ ٱلْقَدْرِ ٢

And what do you know what the Night of Power is?

اور تم کیا جانتے ہو کہ لیلۃ القدر کیا ہے !

97:3

لَيْلَةُ ٱلْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌۭ مِّنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍۢ ٣

The Night of Power is better than a thousand months.

لیلۃ القدر ہزار مہینوں سے بہتر ہے۔

97:4

تَنَزَّلُ ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ وَٱلرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍۢ ٤

The angels along with the Spirit descend in it by the permission of their Lord with all kinds of decrees.

(اس رات میں) اُترتے ہیں فرشتے اور روح اپنے رب کے حکم سے ہر کام کے لیے۔

97:5

سَلَـٰمٌ هِىَ حَتَّىٰ مَطْلَعِ ٱلْفَجْرِ ٥

All peace is that night until the rise of dawn.

سراسر سلامتی ہے۔ یہ (رات) رہتی ہے طلوع فجر تک۔

"He who recites TO ALLAH WE BELONG AND TO HIM WE SHALL RETURN at the time when he is struck by grief has no barrier between him and the heaven." Huzoor Saww.

I read this Hadith and thought that what immense grief my Imam Hussain (as) had felt when he saw the pierced throat of Ali Asghar (as) and what big a catastrophe presenting this pierced throat to the mother of the infant had been that he recited inna Lillah 07 times while pacing to and fro in front of the tent of Bibi Umm e Rabab (sa).

Salutation of the day and night on the heart of Imam Hussain (as). ❤️
