My desi father's encouragement after I broke up...
What an amazing father!!!
---
(it was the first, proper break-up to have occurred in my life, I was probably 18 or so, it was a cold, bitter winter and I was lying in bed, crying my eyes out and hugging my pillow for the past week and a half without eating a morsel of food)
Dad: May I enter your room, Holy Princess?
Dad: Ha ha, stop crying. Foolish girl.
Dad: Astaghfirullah. What is that smell? Did you burn something?
Dad: It is the smoke rising from your head to see me this positive, yes?
Dad: Okay. Okay. No more to joke.
Dad: I am a Muslim, Pakistani father. I never liked the idea of you being with him but I said, "Let it be, yaar. She is young. She is free. I still love her. She is my baby princess." Wipe your snot. So I was okay with him being with you. But it hurts me a lot more to see you like this.
Dad: You are not chubby anymore. What kind of diet is this, hmm? Ha ha, I made funny joke.
Dad: (pushes my hair behind my ear) Allah created hearts to break and heal every now and then. That is why we are humans. If we did not hurt, we wouldn't be who we are today. But having a broken heart means you have two options: To heal it and become invincible. Or to mope away and become a pathetic shadow of the person you once were. What would my little girl do?
Dad: She would eat lotta chips. Ha ha ha.
Dad: Okay, sorry. She would fight back and win her strength to become who she was and will be forever. You are going to meet someone amazing. Boys are idiots. I thank Allah for not giving me sons. They are foolish donkeys. Daughters are warriors. You are my warrior. When you were born, I had tears. I was so scared. I did not want anyone to hurt my baby. Today he hurt you. Allah will take revenge. But you take your time to heal and know that I am always here for you even if my English is not too good.
Dad: That boy was a bastard, foolish dog from hell. Bastard.
Dad: I love you.

Look..
You can sit here and dwell on how ridiculous 2011 was to you, or you can pick yourself up, eliminate everything and everyone in your life that is bringing about negative energy into your life, and step into 2012 with a positive attitude. That’s life for you, sometimes it’s going to take slaps, kicks, and punches at you, but as a strong person you have to be able to stand on your own...

This afternoon Naseem’s mother passed away. Please keep our family in your prayers. This woman was my mother when I didn’t have one, she was the best step mother you could ask for - taking us as her own kids without any question but more importantly the mother of 5 amazing children. May Allah grant her the highest level of Jannah.
Omg,...

his-troll-gf asked: That would be the case for non-Muslims. But since we're Muslims, we know it's Zina and it's Haram to have sex without official Islamic marriage. Even so, everyone gets checked before marriage, obviously. But the idea of that post (imo) is that when you're married, you are allowed to have sex, no one would judge you, and it's safe because your husband is not marrying you...

So my friend's daughter (she's like 1 & 1/2ish) is...
D: Ma she's so cute! Have another baby! We need one around..
Mother: Oh yea sure tomorrow night on New Years' Eve, why don't you have one?
D: ....Um
Mother: Oh that's right! NO MAN! Hahahah!
D: .......
You better watch your tongue when you want to slander Muslims who are struggling with their sexuality and trying to live for the sake of Allah. Their struggles in this world could be the reason they are granted Jannah, while your arrogance and lack of genuine caring attitude towards others due to your differences, can land you a position in a dark scorching place.
Watch your words, control them.
When I reactivated facebook..
..I was browsing through things here and there and saw that some people were sharing stuff that was posted onto The Beauty of Islam such as this post, tagging family and friends to share it.
It made me a little giddy inside to see that, alhamdulillah :)
