Dearest Heart

Dearest heart,

you are small yet you make a great impact in my life.

With taqwa and iman you grow stronger and bolder.

Please don't be weak with the influential of Duniawi.

Please be strong and aid me to remember Him during the critical times I am emotionally affected with Duniawi.

Dearest heart,

remind me to be Zuhud even though how challenging it can be.

Strengthen my Iman to speak nothing but the truth.

Harden my soul before acting ways which will make Him angry.

Please gather much strength for me to take a step back before sinning.

Please tell me to satisfy His needs instead of humans' needs that will make me fall again.

Dearest heart,

indeed you are the main organ that will justify my actions.

Cooperate with my brain to assist me in being a better Muslimah.

Control my desire to seek for the Best from Him.

Remind me to thank Him when obstacles hit me hard.

Increase my Love towards Him and the people around me.

Assalammualaikum

This post is related to how I have been feeling these few weeks. The journey to be a better Muslimah is indeed.....challenging. But alhamdullillah, with His willingness,  I am accompanied with wonderful companions that remind me of His love as I went through the obstacles. At the end of the day, I realized that my 'heart' is very important. That's where we lay our 'niat' and justify the things that we want to do. Therefore, to complete this post, I have attached a writing from  Mumtaz that beautifully summarized what I am facing. Thank you Allah for this humble reminder.
