[Q]: How Long Should A Person Seek Knowledge?

Simple pleasures

Over zillions of stars in the galaxies far far away, I will always... always end up choosing you my moon.

-Sldnctr

If you are studying the deen and not realising your own ignorance then your ilm is not benefittng you. If it is only increasing you in arrogance then your intention is not sincere. Re-evaluate and start again

"I have discovered from my own experience that whenever someone increases in knowledge, they discover how much greater their ignorance is"

[The souls journey after death Ibnul-Qayyim Rahimahullah page 37]

اللَّهُمَّ أَحْسَنْتَ خَلْقِي فَأَحْسِنْ خُلُقِي

O Allah, as you have made my form excellent, make my character excellent.

Source: Musnad Aḥmad 23871, Grade: Sahih

Step in as the woman you want to be. Look like the woman you want to be. Go to places that the woman you want to be would go. Attract the calibre the woman you want to be would attract. Speak like the woman you want to be. Act like the woman you want to be. BE THE WOMAN YOU WANT TO BE .

-T.Ibiro

Sappho - Translation from Anne Carson’s “If not, Winter”

“And tire yourself out, because it makes life worth living! I have seen that water stagnates when it stands still, yet when it runs it is sweet and pure.”

— Imam Shafi (rahimahullah)

Zainab Cobbold (Lady Evelyn Murray) was a Scottish Muslim diarist, traveller and noblewoman who was known for her conversion to Islam in the Victorian era.

Cobbold spent much of her childhood in Algiers and Cairo in the company of Muslim nannies. She considered herself a Muslim from a young age despite not officially professing her faith until later.

— excerpt from Pilgrimage to Mecca by Zainab 'Evelyn' Cobbold

Her story is interesting because it provides a peek into the lives of Victorian-era Muslims of Britian, such as herself and other historic pioneers such as Abdullah Quillam, Lord Headley and Marmaduke Pickthall, among others.
