I Found Love

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh,

Dearest brothers and sisters,

It has been a while. I have been meaning to write for a long time: sometimes words they just flow into my head like a waterfall however, like the waterfall itself, it continues its flow in and out. So I lost all the words I wanted to blog.

In the duration from my previous post, a lot of unbelievably amazing things have happened to me,  Alhamdullilah. I see Islam in a different way. A life full of love and gratefulness. Things may happen that ruin our emotions, however that is only short-lived because we have Allah S.W.T. In times of sadness we turn to Allah, in times of happiness we turn to Allah; every little thing we do we remember Allah. He created us, and we should be thankful.

From time to time I remember my past and ask myself, am I worthy of being here? Worthy of getting His Forgiveness? Worthy of being given a second chance. And then I open a page of the Quran... ALL words of consolation are there, laid out for us to see. And you wonder about Him a bit and He will give you a sign. From the nature, from your dreams, from your heart. I cannot even mention all of it because it overwhelms me. His presence which is closer than our own jugular vein. He's always there, watching us. We just never noticed because we moved further away from Him.

Allah S.W.T has become the reason I live.
The Quran has become my remedy.
Muhammad S.A.W has become my inspiration.

Ukhuwah... it's a strong bond. To strive in this life for the sake of Allah S.W.T. Now, every single day has become a quest to know Allah more deeper. I fell in love. My religion. My Prophet. My Creator.
