DR. WAJEEHA ISSUES

Hey all, Today onwards I intend to start gratitude posts. Why today? Today happens to be the day I completed my AHA lifesaver instructor course.  Of many things I am thankful for to almighty...This is one of them. There is no better way to give back to society than producing more lifesavers. Being a link in saving a life is so overwhelming. Here are snaps from today's celebration. Excuse my punctuations. So far so much!

there is economic injustice and we see this here and everywhere in the world—the disparity between the have’s and the have not’s. What is implied in the Prophetic advice is to bridge the gap; to bring the people together; to address each other’s needs. This is the second step in creating a coherent society.

Peace is an activity; an action. We have to proactively establish peace. We have to make each other feel welcome. We have to greet each other; hug each other; love each other; know each other. This is the foundation of a healthy community.

Hey all There are 3 ways of handling a situation. 1)We feel ourselves incapable of making any change with our hands physically. We can’t stop the bleeding that’s going on. So we give up hope. We feel hopeless. We feel that we can’t do anything. We find ourselves confused not knowing what to do. This feeling of depression is understandable. 2) We often times find ourselves making is a response of trying to ignore the situation. It’s too overwhelming; it’s too painful; so we choose not to watch the media; not to read about what’s going on; not to face the injustice in the world. We find ourselves avoiding the reality on the ground. 3) We often times find ourselves taking is that of being hyper-focused on the issues to the point that we get overwhelmed. We find ourselves fanatically trying to engage with these issues and troubles, and begin to consume every piece of news and follow the every detail of what’s going on in each of these conflicts around the world. Thoughts So despite all of

How do our excitement, commitment, joy, honor and gratitude fit into our resolution? What is our role in a troubled world at a difficult time? Are we ready to break away from the shackles of the past to chart a positive future? Are we ready to rise above the limitations of where we are to the potential of where we could be? Part of reality is to hope for the best but to be prepared for the worst.

وَأَنْ لَيْسَ لِلْإِنْسَانِ إِلَّا مَا سَعَى () وَأَنَّ سَعْيَهُ سَوْفَ يُرَى “And that a human being attains only what he strives  for, and that his striving will be seen.” (an-Najm, 39-40) إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُغَيِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتَّى يُغَيِّرُوا مَا بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ “Allah does not change the condition of a people unless they change what is in themselves.” (ar-Ra’ad, 13:11) We are being told in these verses that we need to strive. We also need to take the initiative of changing ourselves for the better rather than blaming others for our state of affairs. So the bottom-line is that we have to work real hard and we have to change ourselves for positive change to occur.

“And the next life is certainly better for you than the present life.” (adh-Dhuha, 93:4)  Many times when we’re depressed we think: Is this all my life going to be? Is it never going to get better? This verse serves as a perfect answer to those questions, reminding us that life in this world is temporary and that the hereafter is certainly a better, more permanent place for us than this world could ever be. This makes us look forward to attaining our place in Jannah and helps us look at any problems in our lives as temporary tests of our faith from Allah. “Soon your Lord will give you that with which you will be pleased.” (adh-Dhuha, 93:5) That is, although it will take some time, yet the time is not far when your Lord will bless you with so much that you will be well pleased. Very soon Allah will replace our sorrow with good; and He promises us that we will be satisfied with what He gives us. And the promise of Allah is true.  https://www.amda.us/index.php/khutba/406-surat-adh-dhuha-a

“And by the night when it covers with darkness.” (adh-Dhuha, 93:2)   Another relevance of the oath to the subject is that if man is constantly exposed to the light of days it tires him down; so, it is necessary that night should fall after the day has remained bright for a certain period so that man may have rest and peace in it. Likewise, if you are constantly exposed to the light of revelation, your nerves would not stand it. Therefore, break or gap in the revelation has also been provided by Allah on account of expedience so that the effects of the strain of revelation that you have to bear passes away and complete peace is restored to you. https://www.amda.us/index.php/khutba/406-surat-adh-dhuha-a-remedy-for-sadness-and-grief-jan-5-2018

“By the morning brightness.” (adh-Dhuha, 93:1) This is the first thing we need to hear when we are depressed: Everything in life is not doom and gloom. There is sunshine, there is light, there is beauty. In other words, you just have to look up! Look at the bright-side of things. https://www.amda.us/index.php/khutba/406-surat-adh-dhuha-a-remedy-for-sadness-and-grief-jan-5-2018

Hey all , My life and cupboards are parallel these days , both messed up.I have no clue how to organise it! Rewiring Sometimes you have to rewire your mind to help yourself see a little bit clearer version of your state of mind , clear the windows to see the light that shines within. Figuring out As you start walking, the path appears . The diagnosis settles. Once you jump off the plain and tread onto the  uneven terrain, you will thank yourself for doing that because the feeling of being 'born new' gives a high ! Some motivation Dress your bruises and start running again because what happens , happens! You can almost feel Mr.Death looking over your shoulder, smirking as you do all this. Growing up! The maturity to differentiate between a personal attack and constructive criticism is still in progress... No problem is big enough to be unsolvable. No failure means you don't have another chance to try.  Every cardiac arrest is worth a CPR My Love ❤️ Why do I do what I do? I
