Aim of Life?


I realize I am so late to coming back to blog, but this is what irritated me whole year, I was having postpartum depression, re organizing home after 2.5 year of pregnancy and being a new mom break, some health issues and what irritated me the most was...I was thinking a lot about my aim of life...
I was giving no time to Quran, not reading Islamic stuff, whatever I learned from the Tafseer course before marriage, I was forgetting all. I heard lot of deaths (wont call sudden as death is always a sudden happening, it doesn't warn us before coming). I had this fear (thanks to postpartum depression too) that what if I am also going to die right away and am not regular in prayers, out of touch with Allah and His Religion, just spending days like an animal (no aim...spending days like a machine...) I was  fearful, I was having bad panic attacks, so first thing I tried was sharing my feelings with a friend who herself got panic attacks, she was helping me a lot, but the REAL CHANGE was when I started getting regular to prayers, I don't know if I was saying prayer with full concentration but I was trying my best. I also asked for online consultation from Islamic site and my teacher there used to chat with me on skype and through email and made me realize I won't feel OK until unless I get closer to Allah. She didn't force me but invited me to join her online Tajweed and Tafseer classes. When I found myself being closer to Allah and to be regular to prayers, I found peace.
Our Aim of life is to spend it in a way ALLAH and His Prophet (SAW) thought us. People look for meditation, I suggest Muslim Sisters, that be it 5 minutes, but give some time to Allah, share your thoughts with Allah and no one on this world can help you as we are Human Beings and we are not strong enough to give perfect peace of mind and soul while Allah Almighty can. I am short of words, my daughter can just be awake when she hears the noise of keyboard. Just wanted to share my personal experience with you all.
Alhamdulillah in this world when everyone asks for money, there still are people who do something for the reward NOT from the human beings BUT from Allah. Ar Rajaa is the right place and I am thankful to Allah who made things easier for me with His help I found the peace. I am still not honest in prayers, but I am trying my best to say them regularly. Plus whenever you feel panic attack, just be reminded that is is from Shaitan, and he wants to drag your attention, be positive, we all know we have to die, so just be closer to Allah, and share everything with HIM only and you will find peace, make lot of duas when false thing comes to mind.

    As-Salaamu Alaykum,

    SubhanAllah i was just thinking about you last night and wondering where you and your sister had disappeared to? Barak Allahu Feekum.
    Truly Allah is all we need and your right we (the ummah) generally are focused only on the dunya :( it's good to fear death and taking yourself to account as it will bring you closer to Allah.
    JazakAllah khair for sharing your experience.

Time Management

I am being a night owl since weeks and it really sucks. I really feel bad about it later and wanted to manage my time.We , the Muslims, should never say that WE ARE BORED.... we have to utilize our time and use our health and energy for our religion and for the basis Allah has sent us for. No human being is send to this Earth without any duty he/she has to perform and these all words are fact of life and hence I feel ashamed of how I am misusing my energy and time in really useless ways. While googling through the net, I found a best idea here  and am so much impressed that how easy and well illustrated way the writer has described the Time Management Tips. 1. Analysing the Time : For this we have to take record in our diary about how we spend our daily routine even realizing how much time we MOSTLY waste on certain stuff. 2. Cutting Back unproductive demands: Now by taking note of what we really do each day and seeing a list of our noted activities, we can find ...

Hijab for Chubby Face?

I am just bored of how I simply wrap hijab around my head, tried different ways but I hate putting pins around, what if they pinch me or my lil one or maybe drop on floor and someone gets hurt, secondly I noticed that we don't get extra long hijab easily which covers the chest, thirdly I noticed that tight hijabs don't look good on chubby faces. So I looked on google by typing Hijab on Chubby face and saw lot of good images and tutorials and found out that loose curl hijabs look good on such face. I do wear niqaab as well but want to style hijab nicely in case I go to someone's home.  I loved the images here ....not posting direct pics in case model minds.... AND specially loved some here  and here Check this for info on hijab according to face shape.....
