Towards the horizon I slowly drift. Further away, I might not return. Completely to His Might, I surrender.Whatever will be, shall be. So I say my final words. Through silent whispers my heart could hear aloud. With much love and beauty of hope, I bid you good night and see you tomorrow. (God-willing).
The world is but a mirage of existenceA resounding echo of the infinite substance Fooled may be by its apparent presenceBut a mirage is none in its prominent absence A fool are you to believe in the mirage’s liesWhen you yourself are parts of those very lies Escape the traps of its pretense realityAnd free […]
Here I was, stuck in traffic unmoving, complaining, dwelling in a self-pity of having to drive manual-transmission car in such a heavy traffic. There he was, standing on the side of the road, counting his day’s earning, with baskets of cheap bread still half-filled and a smile on his face, thanking God for the blessings […]
Last night I woke up finding myself unable to breathe. In reflex to hold on to life, I used my inhaler in a hope for immediate relief. Yet, such a relief I didn’t find. The pain of breathlessness overtook, and sudden realization struck, “Death! Is this how it would feel like? Am I going to […]
It’s not like I needed them then. These air fresheners. Nevertheless, I was particularly moved simply seeing the man selling these on the street. On the side of the road where traffic was heavy, there he was (probably in his 50s) in shorts, t-shirt, and sweat towel around his neck. “How long has he been […]
Love is the death of duty. ~ Master Aemon Targaryen of Game of Thrones’ The Wall ~ Does true love exist? Is happily ever after meant for this worldly life? You have lived your life for others way too long you couldn’t remember when exactly the last time you selfishly simply went for one of […]
He… Truth is beauty, and in your life, you’ve seen plenty of beauty. In fact, if you could give a name to the person you’ve always felt was your true love, you’d call that relationship ‘beautiful.’ And that beauty held truth for you: this is the only person you’ll ever want to be with. Life […]

Our #RamadhanDatesDistributionDrive does not only cater to those who are less privileged and those who strive in the Path of Allah. (Out of 80 250gr boxes and 14 1kg boxes of Ajwa and Medjool dates, we are left with 10 more boxes to be distributed before Ramadhan). In fact, today, I was privileged to be […]
Replace “you” below with “I”… 😁 So, true btw. It makes me recall my moments of thinking that the world isn’t supposed to be this hard. That happily ever after does exist. #theprincessinme 😆 You’re up late because you’re imagining a utopian universe where everyone is kind and accepting. This world is so perfect that […]

Our last few days of the month of Sha’ban were spent joyously in preparation to welcome the blessed month of Ramadhan. Kicking it off with the closing (tawakuf) of our Saturday night weekly taklim, we were privileged that our #MealFor80 monthly project and #RamadhanDatesDistributionDrive coincided on the same night that the closing of taklim was […]
In between the hustle and bustle of the wholesalers, retailers, roadside shops, street peddlers, shoppers, and other walks of life in the Tanah Abang District of Central Jakarta, there lies a really old mosque of more than 300 years of age. Masjid Al Makmur. I was around to pick up the packages of dates for […]
Nisfu Sha’ban resolution… 😎 Keep the spirit up, stay positive, be kind, and simply love. 💞🥰
A wise person once said that it is better to be loved than to love. Well, I’d say we don’t actually get to choose whether we are to love or be loved. God chooses for us. Sometimes, God showers us with so much love that He enables us to only give and give, out of […]
