The closest we can get to Allah in this Dunya is in Salah, particularly in prostration. We lower our knees and forehead to the earth, to the dirt the lowest of all elements. Not only does it instill humility in the depths of our souls but it also reminds us where we are from. We have been created from the earth, born in the wombs of our mothers, taking the journey of life and soon to taste death, returning us to the depths of the earth. Whereupon reality will become crystal clear…

the end is near
We're in the last part of Ramadhan, with only 6 days left. As exciting it is when Ramadhan was about to start and with Eid at the end, the ending of Ramadhan is hard to accept without being sad. We all know it starts off slow but then it goes like a fast breeze of wind. It's the only time of the year where there's so much worship and remembrance of Allah (swt) being done that it fills the air around us with Sakinah. In the last days we exert ourselves and beg our Creator for His forgiveness and more. We've tried to overcome our desires during this Blessed Month. Becoming closer to Allah (swt) and changing ourselves for His sake is what our life's goal is, inshaAllah we will succeed in that, in it's least bit if anything, during this month so far.
I still can't believe Ramadhan is almost over...
Please remember my family and I in your humble du'as in these last few days we have left!
And forgive me for my shortcoming and anything I've done to you knowingly or unknowingly!
I'm also 37 weeks and soon to be 38 weeks in pregnancy, the waiting is driving us nuts already! Well, whenever it is time for the baby to come, InshaAllah it'll be an easy, fast, healthy and normal labour with the end result being that my baby and I are healthy, strong & beautiful (physically, mentally and spiritually) as can be! This goes for all the expectant mommies out there!
Oh what a blessing and truly marvelous miracle pregnancy is, SubhanAllah. I'm going to miss it as well. They say the excitement for the first baby is unlike any other...inshaAllah the others in the future will be just as amazing an experience as this has been so far :) I feel so fortunate to be a woman to have the privilege to carry such a miracle and great sign of Allah (swt), the Creator of the heavens and the earth, all that is in between and all that we know and do now know, and of everything that there is including, time and space itself. SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, wa la ilaha illAllah wa-Allahu akbar! (Glory be to God, All praise be to God, there is no god but Allah, and Allah is the Greatest!)

As salaamu alaikum dear Sister! Ma'sha'allah, you sound so excited for the baby. We are excited for you too.
Indeed, it is sad when Ramadhan leaves us . . . insha'allah, the next one will come soon and of course, we hope that we around then - this life is so so short.
Best wishes and lots of du'a.
