I love this blog, I get to look back at it and see what I have achieved throughout the years...alhumdAllah I turned 21 on May 20th, 2013.
People always look for gifts from people whether its for graduations, or birthdays but we forget to acknowledge the millions of gifts Allah has bestowed upon us.
Today I realized I am so used to acknolweding the more "exciting" moments in life, but I forget to acknolwedge the improtant people in my life such as my parents....although they dont read this blog, I hope they always love and forgive me. I feel like we forget about this blessing of parents....parents! If there was one thing alongside khusho I would need to work on it is the need to work on those described in the ayas in the Quran when it comes to parents. Oh mama, oh baba forgive me....<3
After my graduation I started the following post, and now I want to post it:
On Tuesday May 14th was my undergraduate ceremony, I keept thinking to myself subhanAllah what a blessing to be here to receive a college degree! AlhumdAllah we dont realize how amazing the blessing of knowledge is. It is a honor to be a student of knowledge
I was also blessed to begin my Masters Degree this semester and again alhumdAllah I am sooooo thankful for the amazing people I have been around this semester.
I remeber when I was choosing a graduate school I came across my current school and I thought to myself wow they have a reallllly cool MSA that actually has lectures and events and pretty prayer room...I choose my school because of its MSA and it has been a blessing I cant thank Allah enough for allowing me to be in this envoriment surrounded with people who love the deen.
"And (remember) when your Lord proclaimed: "If you give thanks (by accepting Faith and worshipping none but Allah), I will give you more (of My Blessings), but if you are thankless (i.e. disbelievers), verily! My Punishment is indeed severe." 14:7
