True Faith is Holding On When Everything Says Let Go…
The real test of faith isn’t in how much you suffer, it’s in how deeply you BELIEVE. Many think that going through hardship is the real test. That the more they endure pain, the greater their trial.

I got this custom-made prayer mat with my little girl’s name on it. I purchased it from the Holy City of Medina when I went early this year. This was my third time being there while it was the first time for Zainab. 🌟The main reason I got this prayer mat for her and some […]
When the impossible became possible
Earlier this year, before I fully understood the power of belief and the mind, I embarked on a pilgrimage to Makkah. 🌟One morning at 4 a.m., with a heart full of hope, I offered some intense prayers, asking for guidance and blessings, even for things that felt impossible. 🌟Just as a light-hearted thought, I asked […]
