Lillahi ta’ala

Often, we make decisions because of our needs and wants..

Our hearts and its desires..

Our mind and its logic..

Often, we forget that He is the All-Knowing..

We plan, but we seldom tawakkal..

We plan, but fear for if it fails..

We plan, but we hold firmly to our desire instead of trusting His plans if it does not turn out our way

We plan, but we forget that His plans are better than our dreams..

Let us all remind each other to set our niyyah to lillahi ta’ala. Bismillahi tawakkaltu alallah.. Wa laa hawla wa laa quwwata illa billahil aliyyil aziim..

A little too much

“She would not show that she was afraid,
but I think it’s apparent now..
But being and feeling alone was too much to face,
just when I thought I was able to go through this battle alone..
Though everyone said that she was so strong,
What they didn’t know is that she could barely carry on,
should I just quit and drop everything?

But she knew that she would be okay,
I knew, I’m not sure about it now
So she didn’t let it get in her way,
but it got in my way somehow

Sometimes it all gets a little too much,
But you gotta realize that soon the fog will clear up,
it seems like the fog has been here since forever
And you don’t have to be afraid because we’re all the same,
are we?
And we know that sometimes it all gets a little too much,

She would always tell herself she could do this
I doubt everything now..
She would use no help it would be just fine
I just don’t want to be seen as a weakling..
But when it got hard she would lose her focus
I’m sorry..
So take my hand and we’ll be alright
but why do you have to always bring it up and make me feel indebted

And she knew that she would be okay,
or maybe I will..
So she didn’t let it get in her way..”
