    Sincerely, Sumayah—Dangerous Times: On Righteousness and Reform
    Apr 6 2025
    To be absolved before your Lord There's a dangerous finality to what's happening in Ghaza right now. The fear is that Allah (awj)'s anger is not far away from descending to affect humanity collectively and those who supported this massacre and injustice specifically. Civilisations/nations were destroyed for taking part, standing by, and not taking action against the injustice and oppression happening around them. Seeking Allah's forgiveness and calling people back to Allah is the only hope to be spared. It's not a luxury or something extra, it's an absolutely critical, individual obligation right now. “And your Lord would not have destroyed the cities unjustly while their people were reformers.” Qur'an (11:117) Being righteous for yourself is not enough. A reformer is someone who is doing the work on themselves and they are impacting, influencing, reminding, calling those around them to do the same. You and I will stand in front of Allah to answer for ourselves. I am terrified by this. May Ar-Rahman have mercy on us. “And when a community among them said, Why do you advise [or warn] a people whom Allāh is [about] to destroy or to punish with a severe punishment? they [the advisors] said, To be absolved before your Lord and perhaps they may fear Him. And when they [i.e., those advised] forgot that by which they had been reminded, We saved those who had forbidden evil and seized those who wronged, with a Wretched punishment, because they were defiantly disobeying” Qur'an (7:164-165)

    Allah's plan is perfect. He is teaching us constantly and aligning our affairs in the way that's best for us. Sometimes that doesn't look like what we prayed for. Asking for what's best means staying open to whatever comes, even if it looks like the opposite of what we wanted. “W Aleikum Assalaam Sis, please be consistent with your Istighfaar and aim for high numbers 30k and above. When you are constantly doing Istighfaar there is little to no time for these thoughts, and even if Shaitan persists with these negative thoughts keep up with your Istighfaar and say it out loud ( loud enough for you to hear it ). You will see with time that these thoughts dissipate. You will also see that your Iman grows stronger with Istighfar. Istighfaar does internal Cleanse of negative thoughts and Emotions, keep up with it and see the change for your self. May Allah Swt aid you in overcoming these emotions and strengthen your Iman.” — Nafisa's final message to the Telegram group Nafisa's Fundraiser (May Allah have mercy on her): https://www.launchgood.com/v4/campaign/help_build_a_masjid_on_behalf_of_nafisa_shire Istighfar and Surat Al-Baqarah Support Group on Telegram: https://t.me/+zP-eHfVKDQZjNmJk Lighting Up Little Hearts with Qur'an: https://zhcalligraphy.com/products/books Jazakum Allah Khair for being here, if we don't connect before then, Ramadan Mubarak to you and your loved ones, use every minute. May Allah accept from all of us and allow us to witness Laylatul Qadr and send our intentions ahead in case we don't witness it ourselves. Sincerely, Sumayah

    Allah (awj) knows what He is doing. You are in good hands, in the best hands. Keep a notebook/journal or digital record of your answered Duas and all the small miracles that you encounter along the way. Trust that what's happening in any given moment is the very best outcome that could happen. It will happen when the time is right. Allah (awj) is with you. He heard your Duas. He knows your heart. You are not forgotten. He hears you now and always.
