November 01, 2023, 03:44:32 pm Zainab_M: Allahhuma ameen .. ameen.
November 01, 2023, 03:43:43 pm Ruhi_Rose: Yes .. making lots of dua everyday ..... watching those real life video clips, my face feels wet with tears all the time.  May ALLAH grant the best to these wonderful, brave & steadfast martyrs,  Ameen ya Allah.
November 01, 2023, 03:38:26 pm Zainab_M: Keep praying, praying a lot for Gaza. It's worse than a prison .. it's a concentration camp.  Children as young as 10 or 11 are having to care for their younger siblings ages 2, 3 and 4 becoz many have lost both parents.  It's a very, very, very tearful situation there.
October 26, 2023, 03:40:19 pm N. Truth Seeker: Don't forget to look up MV Blog Zainab's Lounge for our Gaza updates.
October 20, 2023, 04:24:44 pm Zainab_M: Right sister Heba.  Gaza hospital bombing has the fingerprints of Israel all over it.  For Israel this is no big crime.  They have done this and much worse many times in the past and intend to do the same and worse many more times in near future.
October 20, 2023, 04:20:20 pm Heba E. Husseyn: Catching Zionist lies isn't hard. Soon after Gaza hospital bombing killing and maiming hundreds, Israel was quick to accuse Islamic Jihad of a misfired rocket.  That didn't sound plausible because IJ does not have such sophisticated bombing devices.  Zionist lie was fully exposed when anglican archbishop of Jerusalem,Hosam Naoum,  said today that 3 or 4 days prior to boming Israel had warned Gaza hospital to evacuate. Yet CIA claims in its flawed analysis that the rocket did not come from Israel.  But conveniently does not explain how Israel could have known 4 days earlier that a "misfired" rocket from IJ was coming.  Yet on the basis of this flawed & bias analysis of CIA, Biden is comforting Israel he believes Israel didn't do that war crimes bombing.
July 29, 2023, 03:02:07 am Zainab_M: Yesterday was Ashura, Muharram 10, 1444 (July 27, 2023).  Read about this very tragic day and details of the world's greatest 7th century revolutionary: WHO WAS HUSSEIN.
June 28, 2023, 09:48:39 am Zainab_M: Walaikum As Salaam.  This was the first Hajj open to all after the pandemic. It was attended by 2.6 million Muslims.

 BismEm

This world -  prison for a believer and freedom for a disbeliever.  But the situation is reversed after death.


And know that your possessions and your children are a test, and that with Allah is immense reward.  8:28  Al-Anfal

And coin for them the similitude of the life of the world as water which We send down from the sky, and the vegetation of the earth mingleth with it and then becometh dry twigs that the winds scatter. Allah is able to do all things.  18:45  Al-Kahf

And strain not thine eyes toward that which We cause some wedded pairs among them to enjoy, the flower of the life of the world, that We may try them thereby. The provision of thy Lord is better and more lasting.  20:131  Ta Ha

O my people! Lo! this life of the world is but a passing comfort, and lo! the Hereafter, that is the enduring home.   40:39  Al-Mumin


For a sincere and truth-seeking believer loyal to Allah alone, this world is stifling like a prison.  They are seldom free to follow the laws of Allah but are constantly bound by the rules contrary to the Glorious Quran.  Yet, what keeps a believer intact is their firm iman.  It's easy for them to recognize this world as a very temporary abode with endless ups and downs, and many trials too.  Death for a believer is an exit from this prison.  It opens the doors of this dreadful prison and allows them to walk to freedom, peace, safety and serenity in the Beauty of Paradise. 

For a disbeliever, it's much the opposite.  They have no concept of Life after life.  Life in this planet is all they have and all they can think of.  Thus, fulfilling their earthly desires and achieving earthly success is their final goal.  For this reason, depriving themselves of earthly pleasures irritates them much.  Their disbelief crushes their spiritual conscience and de-stabilises their ethical values and behaviour.  Whatever good deeds they may perform concerning practical life excludes the concept of pleasing Allah, The Highest, rendering all their efforts fruitless. They continue living in oblivion of the Final Judgment and thus deceiving themselves until they actually see that Day.  Death for such ones is the end of their temporary pleasure and freedom.  It's time to pay for their disbelief, apathy, arrogance, incorrect priorities and material greed that engulfed them as a result of their own deception in this world.

MaashAllah, great piece sister.  And so very true.  I'm sure everyone fortunate enough to have acquired the Guidance of Allah will be acquainted with the aspects you've mentioned experienced by a believer.  After all, it's only after grasping the beauty of Divine guidance does one become a true believer.
