“Everything you say or allow into your eyes or ears becomes data that is stored in your heart. That data is later replayed during your prayer. If you want to know what is filling your heart, look at what you think about in your prayer. If you want to guard your heart, guard your eyes, ears, and tongue.” —Yasmin Mogahed (via heartheraindrops-fall)

Assalaam-u-alikum, I just bumped into your blog, and I love it!! Mash'Allah, it's wonderful, especially the photo about the levels of Urdu. It sums up my Urdu GCSE right there!! And your photography is AMAZING! May you succeed in that area and may Allah guide you to become the best in it. Ameen/in sha Allah

Walikumassalam,

Jazak’Allah khayr! This made my day. May Allah bless you too. :)

Out of the many things I’m going to miss, one of them will be listening to the athan here, 5 times a day.

From one masjid, to another, to the next, and on and on and on.

Subhan’allah, it feels amazing to hear it.
