Reminder to my sisters!

You are all beautiful and perfect and enough. Don't let anyone ever make you feel otherwise.
When someone tells you, you would look more beautiful with blue eyes or long hair or if you lose 8kgs or..
if you take care of your skin then please realise they aren't complimenting you, they are insulting you and concentrating on the things "they think" you lack according to their "limited understanding of beauty". Don't laugh away such backhanded remarks.
Be brave and confident enough to say I think I am pretty perfect and awesome the way Allah made me.
And so are you the Creator.

Show them to not make such comments about you while also lifting their morale and confidence by complimenting them.
Since it is only people with low self esteem and inferior complex who try to pick people apart.
My Advice.....
Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you; spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life. Remember that, life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose. Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy

Ladieswhy??? Why this kind of wickedness to a poor innocent baby, if you don't want the baby, kindly take the baby to an orphanage!

🚫Stop this wickedness.
My Beloved Sister in Islam, if unfortunately you were to abort your unborn child for any reason whatsoever, we assure you in the name of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala that on the Day of Judgment the Lord Most High will put life back into that innocent murdered soul and
you will have to present an answer to the Lord All-Knowing for what crime was it killed!!!
Fear Allah and abstain from this most heinous of sins. Keep your full trust and faith in Allah and remain constant in your supplications towards Him to have mercy on you and your child,

While in a public transport today, a woman on my row started begging people for financial assistance.

The man sitting directly in front of me dug hand in his wallet and gave her N500, then others followed, she eventually got over a thousand naira within that short period.
Not long after that, the same man that gave this woman N500 then wanted to buy a bottled water, and the hawker had to run to catch up with us because the man wanted to give him N100 and he had to collect his N50 change first before handing him the N100.
The scenario touched me!
Immediately, I requested for a bottle too and gave the guy 200. A woman beside me shouted...Ahh, let him give you your change first before giving him money😳💁🏻!!

She looked at me as if I'm a "mutula", a new person in Lagos wey dem never show😀.

When I was a kid, my Mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then. I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work. On that evening so long ago, my Mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burned biscuits
in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed!

All my dad did was reach for his biscuit, smile at my Mom and ask me how my day was at school. I don't remember what I told him that night, ....
but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that ugly burned biscuit. He ate every bite of that thing...never made a face nor uttered a word about it!

When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my Mom apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits.

THE WOMAN YOU ARE IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH IS NOT A BABY SITTER

Ladies keep asking if it’s good to provide for a to - be husband ( A man who wants to marry you ) . Whether to give or lend them money, rent accommodation for them, pay for the bride price on their behalf, etc.
Helping someone is for our own good. It’s like sowing into our future. It’s not an act of business relationship but it’s an act of love; what God expects from us.

This is far different from ‘growing’ a man for marriage,
or investing into a man in order for him to marry you in the future. You only give as a friend without expecting anything in return, so even if they leave you, you don't feel cheated.

Yet some ladies run a relationship like an investment,

HOW CAN WE BENEFIT FROM FORGIVING OTHERS_

When we are preoccupied with the wrongs others have committed against us, we lose focus of one of the most beautiful ways to get closer to ALLAH.
@Denikekhai @faisalbabadudu @tenithetailor @aa_drs @FotoNugget @Iraadat_ @its_hammadrabiu
The Prophet (SAW)Said “There was a merchant who used to extend credit to people. If he found one of his customers to be in difficulties he would say to his assistants: “Forgive them their debt, perhaps ALLAH will forgive us.” ALLAH did forgive him.” [Bukhari/Muslim].
There is a direct correlation between the ways we treat others and how ALLAH (Subhanahu wa Ta’ala) treats us. We all know the Prophet’s (sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam) famous saying “Have mercy on those on the earth, and the One in heaven, ALLAH will have mercy on you” [Tirmidhi].

Marriage is not just about love. It entails a lot. Before you marry, make sure whoever you're choosing can perform proper #Ghusul, #Ablution #Salat.

Many a times lots of us lack the knowledge and principles of the #Deen.
All we care about is the fancy dresses and parties we are going to have on our wedding day, forgetting marriage is also an act of worship which needs to be given much attention to.

All we know is we're marrying the love of our lives and we're going to live 'happily ever
after' (we don't marry based on Deen anymore). We don't marry to please Allaah anymore, we marry because we feel we're being left out of the race,we marry because we want to put our enemies to shame;

why?

What then is the essence of the marriage if both..
