Do we really care about those around us

-
As people we love to tell those around us that we love them and care for them. We tell them how much they mean to us and that we they are important to us. However, that is where it ends, we believe that saying a good word can do so much for those in our lives as it makes them happy. Saying a kid word is necessary and recommended but the people you say this to would love to see something else.

They would love to see a little bit more movement with that love, they would love to see actions of appreciation and love so they know you do care. A parent would love to see their child show much they care by showing respect, by helping them when they need them. A husband and wife would want the other to show love by helping the other and being there when they need each other. A friend would want you to be there at their time of need, to show how much they mean to you and be considerate of them. Words become air and if you talk into a bucket your words will never fill it. However, you actions will fill a bucket, your actions make words much more effective and will represent your care for those around you.





Kind words are important, they soften your actions as there is no point of doing something good for someone if your tongue is sharp. Both need to be hand in hand, its like walking, you need both legs to walk. So Actions give your words more weight and kind words soften your actions and heart, so both are needed equally.

Anyone can say a sweet word but one who truly cares will say and do for you when you need them most.

Words are sharper than a knife

-
Words are apart of our lives and we use them every second of our lives. Words can be a sense of pride, for instance, we laugh and cheer when a baby says their first word or speaks in a complete sentence for the first time. words are beautiful, but they can also have a dark side. Words can hurt, they can scar and change a person's life forever. That is why it is important for our tongues to have a leash as it can cause so much damage. As individuals we live on emotion, we require love, care and respect to fully function and the words we choose to say to someone can effect an individual. That is why backbiting, slandering and all forms of negative deeds that can be done through words are not allowed. The tongue puts an individual in the most trouble as you are most likely to offend someone with your words than your fists or weapons. Most of the time we believe we are making a harmless comment about a friend, family member or an individual but it is harmful as it is easier to repair...

starting a new year

-
2017 has begun and it was welcomed the same way 2016 was welcomed and 2015 and all the years before that. Laughter, fireworks and big parties are thrown to mark the end of the previous year and welcome the new one but after that live goes back to normal again. Reaching a new year is a blessing because it gives us the chance to contemplate on the previous year and make a change to the new year that has started. Many people do not have this chance because they did not reach the new year and since we did not know we will reach the next year we should use this opportunity wisely. Every day we get to see the sun rise to a new day and breathe the air of that day is a chance to make a difference in our lives. It is a chance to be thankful for the blessings we have never been thankful for before that we have been given before they are lost. The prophet (s.a.w) told us to remember Allah during are times of prosperity so he may remember us during our periods of adversity. It is a chance...

Be Thankful

Sometimes as people we are the ones who burden ourselves in ways that are not necessary and one of the biggest ways we do is by aiming to be what we are not. We love to be what we are not, trying to be a person that is not us by wearing the mask of another. We do not develop our sense of self but try to live the life of another and this leads us to insecurities and self-doubt. The reason for this is that we want to live the life of another by burying the real us deep inside and each time the real us stares at us, we continue to lock it up by looking for more things and others techniques on how they live.   This leads us to something called overconsumption and begin to hurt ourselves as we always want what we do not have but are never thankful for what we already have. We may be healthy, fit, have the necessities in our lives but we continue to see our lives empty because we are focused on what’s missing, not what’s already there. This leads to overconsumption as w...
