Miscommunication

Lately I have been reading people's signals all wrong. I thought I was getting "I hate you with all my guts" glares from someone close to me but she thought we were cool. I told my guy the other day I wanted to go see my aunt's baby, he never recalled. Am I losing it? Or is it the other people or am I not being clear enough? This is all too confusing.

Women in general, or maybe me in general need to be more clear. I have a ton of things on my mind just waiting to burst but I instead hold it all in. I hold it all in until like a volcano, waiting for it erupt. I do not know why I am doing this to myself. I have this intense pressure band wrapped around my head, right at the temples...

and then this hadith came to mind: The Holy Prophet, Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alaihi wa sallam has said: “If a Muslim is afflicted by a headache or a prick of a thorn or any other harm, Allah will elevate him on the Day of Judgement one rank and expiate his sins due to this.”

Maybe all that I am suffering right now is meant to expiate me from my sins. The tears shed and the sleep lost to be free from sin.

Advice concerning the husband

I was once reading a book and a father was giving his daughter advice on her wedding night on what to expect in the marriage and these are his words:

‘Take from me ten qualities, which will be a provision and a reminder for you.

‘The first and second of them are: be content in his company, and listen to and obey him, for contentment brings peace of mind, and listening to and obeying one’s husband pleases Allah.

‘The third and fourth of them are: make sure that you smell good and look good; he should not see anything ugly in you, and he should not smell anything but a pleasant smell from you. Kohl is the best kind of beautification to be found, and water is better than the rarest perfume.

‘The fifth and the sixth of them are: prepare his food on time, and keep quiet when he is asleep, for raging hunger is like a burning flame, and disturbing his sleep will make him angry.

‘The seventh and eighth of them are: take care of his servants (or employees) and children, and take care of his wealth, for taking care of his wealth shows that you appreciate him, and taking care of his children and servants shows good management.

‘The ninth and tenth of them are: never disclose any of his secrets, and never disobey any of his orders, for if you disclose any of his secrets you will never feel safe from his possible betrayal, and if you disobey him, his heart will be filled with hatred towards you.

You have SO MUCH, Alhamdulillah

I subscribe to this group through Facebook called Ahadith per Day keeps Shaytaan away: part 2!! and it has some great advice to follow. I will try to post some here on my blog when I feel that it will be beneficial to those reading it. Lately I have seen a lot of people being more stressed and saddened by what they cannot control. They cannot control how much they earn or how much they will need in terms of finance in the future or where they will live. No one chooses when they will be born or when they will die. We always have to keep in mind that one day this world will end and everything in it. But in the mean time try to be grateful for what we have today, in the present, not the past or the future.

FOCUS ON THE PRESENT!!!

Abu Hurayrah, radi Allahu 'anhu, narrated: the Prophet, sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam, said, "Being rich does not mean having a great amount of property. Being wealthy is being content."Saheeh Al-Bukhari[Lessons from this Hadith]A fool and his riches soon depart, but we don't call them a fool until they don't have any money left. Don't get caught in the trap. Look all around you at what Allah has given you, and from the bottom of your heart, be pleased and say ALHAMDULILLAH!There you will find the real treasure!
