The Chess Players. Dir. Satyajit Ray. 1977.

The Prophet ﷺ said,

“When death was approaching the Prophet Nuh عليه السلام, he said to his son,

‘I will narrate to you my bequest; I command you with two things and prohibit you from two things.

I command you with La ilaha illAllah (‘There is none worthy of worship in truth except Allaah),

if the seven heavens and the seven earths were placed upon a scale and La ilaha illAllah was placed on the other, then La ilaha illAllah would be heavier.

If the seven heavens and the seven earths were a closed off circle then La ilaha illAllah would be able to break it.

The second thing I command you with is Subhana Allaahi wa bihamdihi because it is a supplication for everything, and by it the creation is given its provision, and I prohibit you from shirk and pride.’”

[Al Silsila As Sahiha, 3130]

Rona chahain aur ro na paye,

Aisi hai tanhaai.

I want to cry but I cannot,

Such is loneliness.

“We ran as if to meet the moon.”

— Robert Frost

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 .

Constantly reading the Quran and pondering on the words of Allah would give your heart the peace it needs, because it's a message from Allah to you.

Read the Quran as much as you can, day and night, get closer to Allah.
