Suhoor shows us that we can wake up for fajr

Tawareeh shows us we can stand up in prayer at night

Fasting shows us we do have self control

Ramadan is not a temporary increase of our imaan

It shows us what we are capable of doing every day

[butimonlyhuman]

RAMADAN IS 50 DAYS AWAY!!!

(excuse me for the caps lol) but here is how I am trying to get a spiritual *glow up* before it

1) make sure you are praying all 5 prayers

2) read Quran daily (decide and portion and stick to it)

3) morning and evening adkar

4) fast Monday or Thursday (or both if you can)

5) tahajjud once a week

6) and most importantly PLAN for Ramadan, it is the best month of the year and InshaAllah this year would be our best Ramadan of our life

“Know that passing thoughts are not harmful. Indeed, they are only harmful if they are sought after and engaged. For a thought is like a passerby on the road; if you ignore him, he will depart from you.”

life goal

Imagine working in a local village bakery and you’re part of a book club with the library full of elderly ladies who have interesting stories to tell, and you spend your days delivering bread loaves to them, writing stories and eating apples from the tree that grows outside your window and you cycle around with a book and a flask of tea in your basket, always ready to stop under a nice tree and read

اب کے ہم بچھڑے تو شاید کبھی خوابوں میں ملیں

جس طرح سوکھے ہوئے پھول کتابوں میں ملیں

This time if we part, then we may meet in dreams

Like dry flowers that are found in books

ڈھونڈ اجڑے ہوئے لوگوں میں وفا کے موتی

یہ خزانے تجھے ممکن ہے خرابوں میں ملیں

Look for pearls of committment in ruined people

Maybe you find this treasure in the bad ones

غم دنیا بھی غم یار میں شامل کر لو

نشہ بڑھتا ہے شرابیں جو شرابوں میں ملیں

Add the sorrows of the world to the sorrows of my beloved

After all when the drinks are mixed, the intoxication increases

تو خدا ہے نہ مرا عشق فرشتوں جیسا

دونوں انساں ہیں تو کیوں اتنے حجابوں میں ملیں

Neither you are God nor is my love like an angel

If we both are merely humans, then why should we meet in hiding

اب نہ وہ میں نہ وہ تو ہے نہ وہ ماضی ہے فراز

جیسے دو سائے تمنا کے سرابوں میں ملیں

You and I are not the same, nor is the past, O Faraaz!

It is like two shadows meeting in the desert of wishes

��ب کے ہم بچھڑے تو شاید کبھی خوابوں میں ملیں

جس طرح سوکھے ہوئے پھول کتابوں میں ملیں

Now that we are parting our ways, may be we will meet in dreams

Like dry flowers that are found in books

محبت جن سے کرتے ہیں

انہیں پھر اڑنے دیتے ہیں

کہ جن کو چاہ ہوتی ہے

وہ خود ہی قید رہتے ہیں

Those you love

Let them fly

For the ones who desire

Remain imprisoned willingly

[butimonlyhuman]

ہمیں چاہیے تھا ملنا

کسی عہد مہرباں میں

کسی خواب کے یقیں میں

کسی اور آسماں میں

کسی اور سرزمیں میں

We ought to have met,

in another time,

in pursuit of attainable dreams,

below a different sky,

upon a different earth,

We ought to have met then, there...
