Tagheyyur.

I don't know from where to begin. I'm kicking it off just for the sake of it.  I'm a mother of two toddlers (boys). Elder 4 and younger 3. full stop yes. Hahahhaha! I want a daughter very much but I don't ask Him. I don't know what's the wisdom behind gifting me with two boys when I really wanted a daughter and I prayed at that time. Was even disappointed when nurse announced what is it. Hahahhaha! couldn't help it. They are my life though. They are so cute and innocent and nerve wrecking hurricane. I love them.  Affan goes to a school. He's in nursery. He asks me daily if tomorrow is off and I say no. Today he woke up before me and asked the same question. He was angry and lied down again, pretending to sleep. I told him to get up but he didn't budge. He immediately got up when I said come on, I'll carry you to the washroom. They both make me smile in odd situations.  Like few days back, Talal was in washroom. I don't remember ...

A few days ago I was very disturbed. I was trying to find the reason behind the dilemma I was in - like always. Not questioning His plan or Power; just curious about the Wisdom of it. Last night when going to bed I recited the last ayahs of surah baqarah and there was my answer. And I was immediately calmed by the thought that He doesn't burden a soul beyond their capacity so no matter what is the Wisdom or Reason behind the situation He Knows I can handle it. And that was the last thought I had before I fell asleep. Allah tala is truly truly Wise. and He shows it to us every now and then. How Wisely He takes His slave a step further towards Himself. Makes us trust Him by reassuring us through His Words (Quran) that He Knows and He listens and cares and plans best. If we ponder upon this ayah, "He doesn't burden a soul beyond its capacity" we get a picture of a strong character. The slave knows that he is capable of handling this situation since allah says it. ...
