self-reflection 🕊

La ilaha illa anta, subhanaka inni kuntu minaz-zalimin This dua is indeed the powerful supplication made by Yunus (AS) when he was in the belly of the whale. It is mentioned in the Qur’an: “There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers.” — Surah Al-Anbiya (21:87) Why this dua is so special • It acknowledges Allah’s Oneness • It glorifies Him • It admits our own shortcomings • It is known as a dua for relief from distress The Prophet ﷺ taught that whoever recites the supplication of Yunus (AS) sincerely while in hardship, Allah will respond. May Allah ease every worry in your heart and accept all your duas, amin yra!

#14 🕊️ this is something i went through too, infact i feel like almost everyone in this community too! but, how can we regain our focus and find peace again, its simply to find and search for the beauty in Salah, learn the whole meaning and purpose of Salah, learn every single recitations that we would usually read in our prayers and once we understand the meaning, we will find the sweetness in Salah, in sya allah. ❤️

#27 📿 although this is a concerning issue, you have to understand that results doesn’t come overnight! as much as we will need to try our best to not miss any prayers, we have to understand that we are not robots too! and you, thinking about this, is already a sign from Allah that He still wants your Salah, He still wants to communicate with you. so find the sweetness in praying and talking to Him, He listens to all your sorrows! 🤍

🌙 At times our Iman could feel shaky. Sometimes our iman can be high or low, days when we dont feel productive religiously/in general, and that’s completely fine :) However there is one thing I observed, even for myself, when we see others posting/sharing about the religion, we feel like they are better than us because we dont do it, but that’s wrong. In fact, Allah is enough witness, Allah sees our efforts for as long as we try to gain good deeds and try to find His love, insha Allah He will reward us and purify our hearts Aamin :) So let’s change our perception and understand that Allah Himself is enough witness for our good deeds that we ourselves know. Biar la berahsia berpahala, tapi jangan la berahsia berdosa. However His doors are always open for repentance, and May Allah forgive all our sins Insha Allah Aamin ☺️

#13 🥹 (a 🧵 of story) a beautiful story, masya allah! thank you to the one who shared this story, it shaped on how i view working now! to think about it, what he/she mentioned is actually facts, everything that we do in this dunya, is infact an ‘ibadah if we set the intention right.

Alhamdulillah, indeed it was a wonderful experience cycling to Coney Island during Ramadhan🚴‍♂️ So calm & peaceful, seeing what has been created by Allah, our Creator, Subhanallah. Along the way, it was a healing experience. Looking ard the nature never fails to impress me from His creation, Allahu Akhbar 😆. This is just in Dunya by the way, what more in Jannah 😍😍😍

⏰ a few more minutes! take this time to multiply yr dzikr, selawat & du’a!

🏃🏻🚲 i think my body is on full-energy mode, went coney island with my brothers in the afternoon, and now preparing to go masjid for iftar! alhamdulillah for the energy that Allah grant us!

#12 🐈 allahu! that is so sad to hearrr, may Allah grant you strength and peace, in sya allah. for indeed, كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَآئِقَةُ الْمَوْت Every soul shall taste death. Ali-Imran 3:185

Allah does not allow you to fall ill except that He will grant you healing. He does not put you through suffering except that something will come from it. He does not lower you except to raise you, and He does not take from you except to give you something better. So keep Allah close. Be grateful in every win and in every loss — for the heavier the trial, the nearer the relief. 🧂

لَئِن شَكَرْتُمْ لَأَزِيدَنَّكُمْ ۖ "…If you are grateful, I will certainly give you more" [14:7] إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلْعُسْرِ يُسْرًۭا “Surely with ˹that˺ hardship comes ˹more˺ ease.” [94:6]

#11 💔 bismillah, do solat istikharah, solat hajat, solat tahajjud, ask Allah for a way, for a sign that if he is the best for you. i recently attended the “is dating haram” talk session and it really changed my views. we care about this issues, when thousands of years ago, Allah had already written down our name together with our partners’ name. at the same time, i am not disregarding your feelings, your feelings are valid! ask Allah for a way, never stop asking, Allah listens! ❤️

#10 🧥 i feel you. everytime i feel like i am “overwearing”, in terms of modesty, i would feel like i am a hypocrite, i don’t act like how i dress. but wallahi, i feel like that is just the whispers of Syaitan, to discourage us to wear modestly, these would then lead us to feel negative about ourselves. i also feel like when we wear modestly, we would be more concerned and cautious, aware of our actions, as we do not want others to think negatively about our religion. hence, it is also a safeguard, but no matter what, stay istiqomah! i feel you 🥲

#14 🕊️ this is something i went through too, infact i feel like almost everyone in this community too! but, how can we regain our focus and find peace again, its simply to find and search for the beauty in Salah, learn the whole meaning and purpose of Salah, learn every single recitations that we would usually read in our prayers and once we understand the meaning, we will find the sweetness in Salah, in sya allah. ❤️

Sometimes we worship Allah while asking for worldly achievements, forgetting that worship itself is the greatest worldly achievement. To be able to pray, to fast, to remember Allah, that itself is rizq. Not everyone is granted this provision. Not every heart is invited, softened or given the opportunity to stand in worship. Ibadah is not something we do by our own strength alone, it is something Allah allows us to do. The desire to worship, the consistency in it, the peace found within it, all of these are gifts. While many chase the dunya thinking it will bring fulfilment, Allah quietly grants a far greater honour, the ability to turn to Him. So when we are able to worship, let us recognise it as success, not a means to success. Because long after worldly achievements fade, the rizq of ibadah remains & it is among the most precious provisions Allah gives to those He loves.

#7 #8 #9 🥹 allahu! ya allah, i honestly felt super touched getting these messages, alhamdulillah haza min fadli rabbi! i would also like to mention my other admins that has been supporting by sending our the reminders for all of us! alhamdulillah, all grace to Allah, He knows best. what’s good come from Him and the bad is from myself! i am just a sinner afterall. allahumma baarik! this made my day 🥹

#6 🦟 kadang bila masuk Ramadan, hati jadi lebih sensitif sebab kita lebih dekat dengan Allah. bila hati makin ‘hidup’, kita akan lebih sedar tentang dosa, kesilapan, atau perkara yang selama ini kita pendam. berat dalam hati awak tu bukan tanda lemah. berat itu tanda hati yang sedang dibersihkan. sebelum Ramādhan mungkin kita sibuk, lalai. tapi bila suasana Ramadan datang — kurang makan, lebih ibadah, lebih fikir tentang akhirat — hati mula bercakap. don’t be afraid of that feeling, attach that heaviness in your heart to your du’as. talk to allah, cry if you need to. Ramādhan is not only a process of thirst and hunger, but also a process of cleansing your heart! ❤️

#5 🕌 personally, i love masjid al-islah because of its vibes, but masjid sultan is also one to mention too! other than that, masjid ahmad ibrahim, masjid omar salmah! but usually, i would just pray at al-mawaddah! 😆
