--* Surah Naba

Assalam o alaikum

So I was home today and was wondering how to spend my time productively. So I decided to listen to the tafseer of Surah Naba by Nouman Ali khan, who is a wonderful speaker Masha Allah. May Allah bless him and his family. Ameen. It is in two parts. You can also download it and listen to it whenever you want on your mobiles or Ipods. I was halfway through the first part and taking notes alongside to write like a summary of it for the blog and then I scrolled down the page and found out they already have the text posted. :) So no worries I will just post a link to the website.

We have to make the Qur'an the most important thing in Ramadan. Whether you listen to it, recite it or understand it you just have to concentrate on the Qur'an for this whole month. Because this is what Ramadan is all about. Its a celebration of the revelation of the Qur'an.


Jazak Allah

It has been such a long time since I even last visited my own blog. Yes I fell off the Iman-bandwagon months ago. Specially when I started university. And I truly hate myself for it. For not even trying to be the person I was when I decided to start this blog. And just as would happen when the blessed month of Ramadan arrived (And Allah swt chose me again to see it alive and healthy... Alhumdulillah), I could not feel it in my heart. I just cant describe the empty feeling. So here I am taking a trip down memory lane trying to remember all that I did last Ramazan when I truly felt like I had finally tasted the sweetness of Iman. And reading all these old posts gives me hope. Subhan Allah. If I was successful in trying then, I can definitely try to reach that level again now. Insha Allah.

So can you. We just have to give it our best. Whenever we can. However we can. Lets not lose grip of the rope of Allah. Lets use this wonderful opportunity to gain His pleasure again. Even if you think you still cannot feel it in your heart, just keep swimming. Listen to Quranic reciations and tafseers. Recite it yourself. And most importantly make Dua. That wall of sins around our hearts will crack at one time or another. It has to. Because good beats evil, any day. Just don't give up. Make Dua to Allah to help you get through this. Just keep trying. We will get there Insha Allah. :)

Oh Allah! Please Please help us really feel this blessed month in our heart. And accept our ibadat and struggle. No matter how small. And let us taste the sweetness of Iman once again. And help us stay on it till our death. And pick us up whenever we fall. And do not leave us misguided Ya Allah.We need You. Save us from the Hell fire. Protect us and our families from evil of every kind. 
AmeenYa Rabbul Alamin.

Ramadan Mubarak! (:
