Ramadan 2022 - Juz 16 ذِكْرُ رَحْمَتِ رَبِّكَ عَبْدَهُۥ زَكَرِيَّآ إِذْ نَادَىٰ رَبَّهُۥ نِدَآءً خَفِيًّۭا قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّى وَهَنَ ٱلْعَظْمُ مِنِّى وَٱشْتَعَلَ ٱلرَّأْسُ شَيْبًۭا وَلَمْ أَكُنۢ بِدُعَآئِكَ رَبِّ شَقِيًّۭا وَإِنِّى خِفْتُ ٱلْمَوَٰلِىَ مِن وَرَآءِى وَكَانَتِ ٱمْرَأَتِى عَاقِرًۭا فَهَبْ لِى مِن لَّدُنكَ وَلِيًّۭا

Ramadan Reflections 2024

Part 4

A Short Reader on Death and the After-Life in Islam (Part 1)

What Happens After We Die? The Third life begins at the moment of death. A person enters the Barzakh (the grave), literally the “intermediate realm” which separates this present life from the events of the judgement. "The Intermediate Realm is the bridge between the world and the life-to-come. It has more affinity with the latter. It is a place where spir…

I dont know if this is just me, but, there is, for some reason, something really sad about the 9th and 10th of Muharram. At Maghrib, the sky looks like its painted with blood, almost as if ready to burst.

When I started my healing journey in earnest at the beginning of 2020, I found that lots of experts, gurus, and apps, yet none of them worked for me. Three years later, I finally understand why.
