The Wrappings of Gratitude

As Salaamu Alaikum Dearest brothers and sisters,

This is just a short post to let you all know that I returned safely alhamdulillah from the sacred cities of Makkah and Medina from what proved to be truly a journey of a lifetime, full of blessed experiences, in the company of blessed souls, taught by blessed teachers and most importantly walking in the footsteps of the blessed prophet (s). Over the coming weeks insha’Allah, as time dictates, I will share some of these experiences with you, but for now I have to contend with life without the messenger of Allah (s), and outside of his beautiful mosque. But one thing is for sure is that whilst one may have returned to the old life, it is viewed with new eyes and hearts….

بِسۡمِ ٱللهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

In the Name of Allah Most-Compassionate, Most-Merciful

I pray you are all well insha’Allah and gaining blessings from Allah subhanhu wa ta’ala for your efforts to please Him, to live for Him insha’Allah. I wanted to let you all know that there will not be any new posts for a few weeks insha’Allah as I am leaving for Umrah insha’Allah in less than two days. I ask you all to make dua for me, and like wise I will do the same for you all insha’Allah. I hope and pray, that for the sake of Allah, you have found the knowledge within these posts beneficial for you. Indeed it has been a blessing and honour to have been given the opportunity to use these words for His sake, and I hope that I have conveyed them only truly for His sake alone. Please take care of yourselves and insha’Allah always remember Allah, live only for Him, give Allah victory and Allah will give you victory. Remember Him and He will remember you, go walking to Him and He will come running to you. And remember when all is said and done and the last of Bani Aadam is in his grave, and when all of creation has turned to dust, it is only Allah that will remain. Remember then always, La illaha ill’lal’la.
