Ma Sha Allah, and congratulations!

Just reading about your work made me stressed 😬 It must feel so good to have achieved great results!

This is something I stuggle with, you know, prioritising deen. I tend to think in this way that studying and completing my assignments on time is also a form of ibadah, because studying is a resposibilty on you as your parents are paying for your education. But I also slack there too sometimes 🤣 May Allah help us all prioritise His worship and His word. Ameen. And yes, that feeling of being a united people who worship Allah is soooo beautiful and heart-warming. I felt all warm and happy reading your description of everyone praying 🥰

thank you sm :’)

and honestly… tell me about it 😭 it did really feel good alhamdulillah but goodness me, when i think about those last 3 weeks i get war flashbacks.

the struggle is definitely understandable - i feel like everyone is tested with this struggle in different ways, commonly with school and/or work i’d say. may Allah make it easier for us, Ameen <3

and wow i never really thought of it like that. subhanallah.

thank you for reading and leaving this comment ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

This is such an inspiration reflection! Congrats on completing the Quran last year. Subhan'Allah that's such an inspirational story of struggling to balance deen and dunya. I've never finished reading the Quran in Ramadan either and it's honestly been intimidating me to try. But this really gave me the motivation Alhamdulillah and I really want to do it this year Insha'Allah. I hope your finals went well and wish you immense barakah in your studies Insha'Allah!

thank you so much! i definitely get how it’s intimidating… it really is. i didn’t think i’d actually complete it in a whole month, it usually takes me a year 😭. but alhamdulillah. i’m so happy to hear that you’re motivated to try it—go for it! whether you complete it or not, the intention is still there and gets rewarded too :’) you got this Insha’Allah!

and thank you, Allahumma Ameen ♡ jazakallah khair

Honestly needed this as someone who’s prioritising her Deen this year 🥹 since New Year’s I’ve started waking up for Fajr and it’s honestly been so peaceful and life changing!! Slowly implementing acts like this into my daily routine has made me realise Allah really is there for us when we need him most and He’ll provide for us in the dunya when we commit ourselves to the Deen alhamdullilah 🤍🤍

War flashbacks 😂😂

For me it feels like remembering a depressing, dark time where I felt nothing, but also felt panic 🙃
