No god, but God

O God
There is no God but you
The living
The eternal
O God
There is no goal but you
The high
The great
O God
There is no better cause then your cause
O God
There are no better words
Then to praise you continuously
O God their is no greater gift
Then knowing you

Allow our souls to depart
And our spirits to reconnect with you
O God their is no better presence then yours
O Lord
Their is no worse fate then to be turned away

O God
Were humbled by you
Your might
Will overcome
Our weakness will be on display
Faces of hope
Faces of dismay

O God there is no God but you
The living
The eternal
The high
The great
The holder of time
The watcher of all
The hearing
The living
The self sufficient

O living
O eternal
There is no God but you

Marriage, slavery and freedom 24: 32- 33

And marry the unmarried among you and the righteous among your male slaves and female slaves. If they should be poor, Allah will enrich them from His bounty, and Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing.

But let them who find not [the means for] marriage abstain [from sexual relations] until Allah enriches them from His bounty. And those who seek a contract [for eventual emancipation] from among whom your right hands possess - then make a contract with them if you know there is within them goodness and give them from the wealth of Allah which He has given you. And do not compel your slave girls to prostitution, if they desire chastity, to seek [thereby] the temporary interests of worldly life. And if someone should compel them, then indeed, Allah is [to them], after their compulsion, Forgiving and Merciful.

What good deeds?

“If you fear becoming deluded and impressed by your deeds then remember whose pleasure you are seeking, and the joy (paradise) in which you want to be, and what punishment you fear. Whoever thinks about these things will diminish his deeds.” – Imam Shafi’i

keep moving

Our strength is limited but Allah has unlimited Mercy, Love, Power,…. so have faith and move on, don’t lose hope as it will drain all our positive energy…put our great trust in Allah with ardent effort as we move on & try to develop positive self talk each day to gain self esteem, and stay close to those who are positive minded as we will be energized by their positive aura, and all our pressure will turn to pleasure inshaAllah..

“Oh my heart,
Don’t become discouraged so easily.
Have faith.
In the hidden world, there are many mysteries,
many wonders.
Even if the whole planet threatens your life,
don’t let go of the Beloved’s robe
for even a breath.”
~ Maulana Rumi

Surah Al-A'lâ, Sheikh Mishary

A promise to the foremost

And those Foremost (in Faith) will be Foremost (in the Hereafter). (10) These will be those Nearest to Allah: (11) In Gardens of Bliss: (12) A number of people from those of old (13) And a few from those of later times. (14) (They will be) on Thrones encrusted (with gold and precious stones). (15) Reclining on them facing each other. (16) Round about them will (serve) youths of perpetual (freshness). (17) With goblets, (shining) beakers, and cups (filled) out of clear-flowing fountains: (18) No after-ache will they receive therefrom, nor will they suffer intoxication: (19) And with fruits, any that they may select; (20) And the flesh of fowls, any that they may desire. (21) And (there will be) Companions with beautiful, big, and lustrous eyes-- (22) Like unto Pearls well-guarded. (23) A Reward for the Deeds of their past (Life). (24) No frivolity will they hear therein, nor any taint of ill― (25) Only the saying "Peace! Peace."

Covering

“Man in early times was almost naked, and as his intellect evolved he started wearing clothes. What I am today and what I’m wearing represents the highest level of thought and civilization that man has achieved, and is not regressive. It’s the removal of clothes again that is regressive back to ancient times''- Noble (Peace Prize Winner) from Yemen, Tawakul Karman
