Guard Your Time – It Is a Trust from Allah

Too many distractions in the world. So many in the media. May Allah protect us.

If one is not careful, one will spend the entire day lost in endless scrolling, moving from one reel to another, while precious time slips away unnoticed.

As a Muslim, it is important to be conscious of how we spend our time, for time is a trust (amānah) from Allah. Every moment is an opportunity either to draw closer to Him or to drift further away. The heart that is constantly occupied with noise and distraction finds little space for reflection, remembrance, and growth.

Allah reminds us in the Qur’an that success belongs to those who guard their time and avoid vain pursuits: “And those who turn away from idle talk”. This includes anything that consumes our hours without benefit, weakens our focus, or distances us from our purpose.

The Prophet ﷺ also taught the value of time, saying: “There are two blessings which many people waste: health and free time”

Therefore, a believer strives to be intentional. This does not mean abandoning the world entirely, but rather engaging with it in moderation and with awareness. Set limits, guard your attention, and prioritize what nourishes your soul—Qur’an, dhikr, beneficial knowledge, family, and acts of service.

Even small changes can bring barakah: replacing a few minutes of scrolling with remembrance, choosing reflection over distraction, or seeking knowledge instead of passive consumption.
May Allah grant us discipline over our time, clarity in our priorities, and hearts that find peace in His remembrance. Aymin Yah Rabbal Ala’aameen.

I See You, Allah Sees You More

Divorce is emotional, troubling, and can bring about depression, frustration, and deep inner exhaustion. I see you even when you swallow your pain. Yes, even when you hide your tears behind silence and strength. I see you when you feel unheard, when you feel misunderstood, and when you quietly wonder if anyone truly sees what you are going through.

It is not an easy decision to make. Nor is it an easy reality to live with afterward. It is heavy. It carries grief, regret, confusion, and sometimes even relief mixed with guilt. I see your struggles. I hear what is said in words, and I also hear what is left unsaid. I hear you when you whisper your pain, and I understand that grief often sits quietly in the heart long after the conversation has ended. It is a hard pill to swallow—so heavy that at times it feels like it may choke.

And yet, even in this state of emotional turbulence, there is something unchanging and certain.

Allah sees you more.

He sees what led you here, and what you tried to hold together. He sees the intentions that were sincere and the efforts that went unnoticed. He sees the moments of patience you exhausted, and the moments where you felt you could no longer continue. He sees both the breaking and the trying.

This is not a dismissal of your pain. It is a reminder that your pain is not carried alone.Because even when human understanding falls short, divine understanding remains complete. Even when people misinterpret your choices, Allah knows your intention. Even when emotions cloud judgment, Allah’s wisdom remains clear.

Everything has been predestined with wisdom, even when it is difficult to comprehend in the moment. What is meant for you will not miss you, and what has missed you was never written to remain with you.

Even hardship carries hidden good—sometimes in the form of growth, sometimes in the form of protection, and sometimes in the form of drawing the heart back to Allah when it had drifted. So even here, in this place of transition, Allah is still present. Not distant. Not unaware. Not indifferent. But near—closer than what the heart sometimes feels in moments of grief.

There is comfort in knowing that nothing about your struggle is hidden. Not the tears you shed in private. Not the weight you carry when no one is watching. Not the fear of the future or the memories of the past.

All of it is seen.
And all of it is known.

So take heart—not because the pain is small, but because the One who sees it is Most Greatest, and His mercy is greater than what your heart can currently comprehend.

May Allah ease your affairs, mend what is broken in ways better than before, and place tranquility where there has been turmoil. And may He grant you wisdom moving forward, especially in how you continue to care for the hearts entrusted to you. Because even after separation, responsibility does not end. It only transforms.

And Allah is still watching how that trust is carried.

Be mindful of your private life.

We were raised to be careful about what we do in secret. May Allah keep a watchful eye over us and guide us to what is right. We were taught that two angels record our deeds, documenting both what we conceal and what we make public. This should make us more conscious—more cautious—of how we live, both outwardly and inwardly.

Indeed, Allah is Most Patient. He gives us countless opportunities to repent, to return, and to turn a new leaf. He does not hasten punishment, even when we fall short repeatedly. Instead, He gives time—time to reflect, to correct, and to come back to Him.

But when we persist in ignoring those reminders, when we refuse to listen, there may come a moment when what was hidden becomes exposed. That which Allah had covered out of His mercy may be uncovered as a wake-up call. Not necessarily to disgrace, but to remind—to redirect—to bring the heart back before it is too late.

No one is a saint. We all fall short. We all struggle. But the difference lies in what we do in those unseen moments. Do we persist in what displeases Allah, or do we fight against it, even if we fall again and again?

Be among those who strive to avoid the wrath of Allah in private just as they would in public. True sincerity is built in what no one else sees.

The Prophet ﷺ said:
“I know people from my Ummah who will come on the Day of Resurrection with good deeds like the mountains of Tihamah, but Allah will make them scattered dust.” They asked why, and he said: “They were people who, when alone, would violate the limits of Allah.”

This is not meant to instill despair, but awareness. It reminds us that what we do in private carries weight—just as much as what we do in public.

So turn back to Allah sincerely.

Learn to pray, not just with your body, but with your heart. Cry to Allah in your solitude. Ask Him to protect you from returning to what displeases Him. Ask Him to purify your heart, strengthen your will, and grant you sincerity in all that you do.

No matter how far one has gone, the door remains open—as long as life remains.

So be a changed person tonight.

Not for people. Not for appearances. But for Allah.

Seek the face of your Lord before a day comes when regret will no longer benefit. Take advantage of the moments you still have, the chances you are still being given, and the mercy that still surrounds you.

Because the greatest success is not that we never fall—

But that every time we fall, we return.

STAND TALL

While you await the blessings of the Lord of the Majestic Throne, stand tall. Do not give in to sadness. Live with care, but do not deny yourself moments of joy. Be mindful, yet hopeful.
What you must never lose sight of is your Ākhirah. Stand tall in your ṣalāh. Stand tall in striving to please your Rabb. Stand tall in turning away from what invites His punishment.

Do not let your circumstances push you into despair or recklessness. What is meant for you will reach you, and what is not will never be yours. So ease your heart. Be patient. Be optimistic about your situation. Both the good and the difficult are known to Allah, and nothing escapes His wisdom.

Remember, strength is not found in having everything go your way—it is found in remaining firm when things do not. Continue to rise in faith, even when you feel weak. Continue to trust, even when the path seems unclear. For every moment of patience is seen, every silent duʿā’ is heard, and every struggle carries the potential for elevation.

Stand tall—not in pride, but in faith.

ALLAH HAS NOT FORSAKEN YOU

There are moments in life when the heart feels heavy, when silence lingers longer than comfort, and when the weight of the world seems almost unbearable. In those moments, a thought may quietly creep in: “Where is Allah in all of this?” But the believer anchors their heart upon a truth that never changes:

Allah has not forsaken you.

Often, we measure Allah’s presence through ease—when life flows smoothly, when prayers seem quickly answered, when doors open without struggle. But Allah’s care is not limited to ease.

Sometimes, His mercy is hidden within delay. Sometimes, His protection lies in what He withholds. And sometimes, His closeness is felt most deeply in moments of trial.

What we perceive as distance may actually be divine wisdom unfolding beyond our understanding. Allah sees every tear that falls in solitude. He hears every whispered du‘ā’, even the ones we struggle to put into words. Not a single (injustice) escapes Him, nor does any act of patience go unnoticed.

“And Allah is not unaware of what the wrongdoers do.”— Surah Ibrahim (14:42)

So when the world feels overwhelming, and when answers appear delayed—do not allow doubt to take root in your heart. The promise of Allah is true, and His timing is perfect.

Hold firmly to your connection with Him. Continue to make du‘ā’. Continue to strive. Continue to trust.

Because the reality remains:

You are never unseen.
You are never unheard.
And you are never forsaken.

And one day—on the Day when all matters are made clear—you will understand every delay, every hardship, and every unanswered question.
Until then, walk forward with certainty in your heart: Allah has not forsaken you—and He never will.

Powerful Duʿā’ for Laylatul Qadr

O Allah, all praise belongs to You. You are the Most Merciful, the Most Forgiving, the One who hears every supplication and knows what is hidden in the hearts.

 

O Allah, on this blessed night of Laylatul Qadr, the night that is better than a thousand months, I turn to You with humility and hope. O Allah, decree for me the best in this life and the best in the Hereafter. Write for me goodness in all my affairs and turn away from me every harm that You know and I do not know.

 

O Allah, if my provision is written to be little, increase it. If my affairs are difficult, make them easy. If my path is unclear, guide me to what is best for my faith, my life, and my akhirah.

 

O Allah, grant me sincerity in my worship and steadfastness upon Your guidance. Do not allow my heart to turn away after You have guided me. Accept my prayers, my fasting, my charity, and every act of worship I have done in this blessed month.

 

O Allah, forgive my sins — the ones I remember and the ones I have forgotten, the ones done in private and the ones done in public. Indeed, You are the Most Forgiving and You love to forgive.

 

O Allah, make me among those who are forgiven tonight. Write me among those who are accepted. Do not make me among those who leave this Ramadan without mercy.

 

O Allah, decree goodness for my family, my children, and my loved ones. Protect them, guide them, and keep them firm upon the truth. Place barakah in our lives and make us among those who are grateful.

O Allah, write for me a beautiful ending to my life. Allow my last words to be La ilaha illa Allah. Gather me with the righteous in Jannah.

 

O Allah, do not let this blessed night pass except that You have forgiven me, shown me mercy, accepted my deeds, and written for me goodness in this world and the next. Indeed, You are the Most Merciful of those who show mercy. Āmīn.

The Last 10 Nights Are Upon Us

The last ten nights have begun, and we are grateful for this rare and precious blessing. How many people returned to Allah during the first nineteen days of Ramadan? Yet, we are still here — spared, alive, and in good health. Alhamdulillah.

It is often said that success is not only about how you begin, but how you finish. These final nights are the time to give your very best. This is the time to tighten our waist belts, increase our worship, and reconnect deeply with Allah, the Most High.

These are the nights in which destinies are written. What unfolds in our lives in the coming year may be decreed during these blessed nights. So seek it. Search for it. Strive for it. Do not grow tired or complacent. If necessary, take time off from work and distractions, and dedicate yourself to seeking the mercy of the Most Merciful.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would increase his worship during these nights. ʿĀ’ishah (رضي الله عنها) said: When the last ten nights of Ramadan began, the Prophet ﷺ would tighten his waist belt, spend the night in worship, and wake his family.
— Sahih al-Bukhari 2024; Sahih Muslim 1174

Among these nights lies Laylatul Qadr, the Night of Decree, about which Allah says: Laylatul Qadr is better than a thousand months.— Surah Al-Qadr (97:3)

I would also like to use this opportunity to sincerely appreciate my team at MajmolQueen Charitable Foundation for the wonderful work you are all doing. By Allah, I am deeply grateful for every effort, sacrifice, and act of sincerity you have shown in serving others during this blessed month.

I humbly ask Allah to accept it from all of us. May Allah purify our intentions, protect us from showing off (riyā’), and strengthen us to continue doing good — morally, spiritually, and financially.

May He place barakah in our efforts and make this work a means of continuous reward for us.
May Allah reunite us all in Jannatul-Firdaws without reckoning.

I love you all for the sake of Allah.
May Allah love you even more.

My Du‘ā’

O Allah, I have submitted myself to You. I am Your servant, the daughter of Your servant. I am but a sinner in need of Your mercy. I humble myself before You—please forgive all my sins, both apparent and concealed, the first of them and the last.

O Allah, Paradise is true and the Hellfire is true. Do not disgrace me on the Day of Judgment. Conceal my faults in this world and the Hereafter, and accept my sincere repentance, Yah Rabb al-‘Ālamīn.

O Allah, forgive my husband with a forgiveness that leaves no sin behind. Cleanse his record, erase his faults, and replace every mistake with multiplied good deeds. Overlook his shortcomings, pardon his errors, and do not hold him to account for what he did in weakness, forgetfulness, or hardship.

O Allah, soften his heart and expand his chest with light and tranquility. Remove from him anxiety, heaviness, and hidden burdens. Put nūr in his heart, nūr in his tongue, nūr in his actions, and nūr in his path.

O Allah, expand his rizq in ways that are pure, halal, and blessed. Open for him doors he never imagined. Put barakah in his earnings, his time, his strength, and his efforts. Make him independent of people and rich through You alone.

O Allah, have mercy on my parents, forgive their sins, and elevate their ranks among the righteous. Reward them for every sacrifice they made for me and accept their good deeds with multiplied reward. Fill their hearts with light, grant them good health and strong īmān, protect them from the punishment of the grave, and grant them Jannatul-Firdaws without reckoning. Be pleased with them and envelop them in Your vast mercy.

O Allah, bless all my children with retentive memories, beneficial knowledge, righteous character, firm īmān, and piety. Make them a source of comfort to my eyes in this world and a source of ongoing reward for me in the Hereafter. Above all, grant them Jannah without account.

O Allah, purify my intentions and allow me to do all that I do sincerely for Your sake alone. Accept my ṣalāh, my fasting, my charity, my du‘ā’, and every act of worship I offer to You.

O Allah, grant me the blessing of witnessing Laylatul-Qadr. Forgive me on that night, decree goodness for me, and cleanse my heart from enmity, hatred, jealousy, arrogance, and hypocrisy.

O Allah, rank me among Your sincere and righteous servants. Keep my heart firm upon Your religion. Allow me to live long in obedience to You and let my final deeds be my best deeds.

O Allah, grant me the honor of meeting Rasūlullāh ﷺ at his Hawd and the immeasurable gift of gazing upon Your Noble Face in the Hereafter.

O Allah, save me from the Hellfire, for it is a terrible destination. Do not make me among those who enter it even for a moment before Jannah.

O Allah, keep my feet firm upon righteousness. Make me steadfast in trials, patient in hardship, grateful in ease, and sincere in private and in public.

O Allah, let death come to me only when You are pleased with me and while I am in a state of complete submission to You.

O Allah, You are my Lord, and You know me better than I know myself. Help me settle my debts, remove financial burdens from me, grant me lawful sustenance, and place barakah in all that You provide.

O Allah, make Hajj easy for me and for everyone longing to visit Your Sacred House. Invite us as your honored guests and accept it from us as a Hajj Mabroor.

O Allah, expand my chest with tranquility, increase me in beneficial knowledge, beautify my character, protect me from hidden trials, and make me a source of goodness wherever I am.

O Allah, forgive the believing men and women, the living among them and the deceased. Unite our hearts upon truth, and gather us in Jannatul-Firdaws without reckoning or punishment.

I ask You for all the good that Your Prophet ﷺ asked You for, and I seek refuge in You from all the evil from which he sought refuge. Accept all my du‘ā’, Rabb al-‘Ālamīn.

And I wish the same for everyone reading this—may Allah accept all our prayers and grant us more than we ask for. Āmīn Yā Rabb.
