When you leave something Haram for the sake of Allah, He will reward you in unimaginable ways! He is Ar-Razzaq; The Provider. Giving up on it won't be easy, it will be difficult, you might even return back to that sin. Don't lose hope, don't let Shaytan distract you by making you believe that you can never change or Allah will never forgive your sins. He is Al-Ghafoor; The All Forgiving. Even if we fail a million times, He will forgive us. Go back to Him! I read this beautiful quote somewhere, "Run to Allah, if you can't run to Him, walk towards Him and if you can't walk, crawl towards Him."

Subhan'Allah! He will hold us and He will never abandon us. That's how Merciful and Gracious Allah is.

- Surely Allah is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful. [2:173]

[herr-qalb]

You’re not late.

You’re not behind.

You haven’t been forgotten.

You’re simply being prepared in ways you can’t yet see. Allah delays certain things—not to punish you, but to protect you and to align your life with the wisdom of His perfect plan.

Stop comparing your journey to others; their story was never meant to match yours. Your path isn’t slow—it’s sacred. Trust the pace He has written for you. -herr.qalb

Surah Yusuf teaches us:

being sad doesn't equal being ungrateful

sometimes, those closest to us can be the source of our deepest pains.

those who trust the plan of Allah always win

broken hearts can be healed through love

the people of patience have beautiful endings

Trusting in Allah's plan means believing that there's wisdom in every trial and that every challenge is a step towards a greater destiny

Thawban said: “When the Verse concerning silver and gold was revealed, they said: 'What kind of wealth should we acquire?' Umar said: 'I will tell you about that.' So he rode on his camel and caught up with the Prophet, and I followed him. He said: 'O Messenger of Allah what kind of wealth should we acquire?' He said: 'Let one of you acquire a thankful heart, a tongue that remembers Allah and a believing wife who will help him with regard to the Hereafter.' ”

[Sunan Ibn Majah 1856]

[herr-qalb]

Sometimes we carry pain so quietly that even we forget how long it’s been sitting with us. We smile, we move on, we tell ourselves we’re okay — but some parts of us still ache in silence. And that’s okay. Healing doesn’t always look like breakthroughs or big changes. Sometimes it’s in the quiet ways Allah softens your heart again. In the way you begin to breathe easier, or how one day, without realizing, the weight feels lighter. You’re not behind. You’re not failing. You’re simply healing in the pace Allah knows you need. And that’s more than enough.

Allah, in His infinite wisdom, saw me rushing through life—eagerly chasing my own plans, trying to force outcomes on my own timeline. So He gently humbled me, not out of anger, but out of love. He held back what I thought I needed, and instead made me start over. This time, however, I’ve chosen to surrender. I’ve placed my trust in His divine plan, knowing that whatever He wills is better than anything I could imagine. And in that surrender, I’ve found a peace I never knew before—because nothing brings more calm than trusting the One who knows what’s best. -herr.qalb

[herr-qalb]

Do not lower your standards; instead, raise your dưa. Read that again. Pray big, for with Allah, it is"Be, and it is." Pray for everything, because nothing is impossible for Allah. Allah manifests miracles for you; a prayer is never wasted, and tawakkul brings His mercy. He will amaze you with the perfection of His plans, leaving you utterly speechless as things fall perfectly into place. All you have to do is keep praying and keep believing.

If Allah helps you, none can defeat you. But if He denies you help, then who else can help you? So in Allah let the believers put their trust. [Al imraan : 160] -herr.qalb

[herr-qalb]

Sometimes, we hold tightly to our plans, thinking we know what’s best for us. But Allah, in His infinite wisdom, has a plan that goes beyond what we can see. The delays, the detours, the silence—it’s not rejection, it’s divine protection. What feels like a pause may be a safeguard, what feels like a closed door may be a hidden blessing. If you’re waiting, unsure, or heart-weary—pause and place your trust in the One who knows the depths of your soul. He hasn’t forgotten you. He’s shaping your path with care, even if it looks different than you imagined. One day, you’ll understand why it had to happen this way. And your heart will say with peace, “Alhamdulillah, it didn’t go my way—it went His.” -herr.qalb

[herr-qalb]

Allah will never let what you lost be the best you've had, because His wisdom and mercy are far greater than what we can comprehend. Sometimes, we hold tightly to things or people we thought were meant for us, not realizing that Allah removes them only to replace them with something better. What you lost wasn’t meant to stay—it served its purpose, taught its lesson, and made space for something greater. Trust that your future holds more peace, more love, and more goodness than what’s behind you. When you let go with faith, you make room for the blessings Allah has already written for you.

[herr-qalb]

Allah’s love for you is far greater than you can ever imagine. Even when you fall into sin, He doesn’t abandon you—instead, He gives you what you desire, not because you deserve it, but because His mercy envelopes even the undeserving. He hears your silence, knows your name, and watches over you even when you forget Him. You may not pray, yet He still provides. You may sin, yet He still waits for your return. And when you finally turn back, even with a heart heavy with regret, He welcomes you with forgiveness. Your destiny is not random—it is written by the One who created you with love. One day, you will understand how every moment was part of His plan just for you.

[herr-qalb]

Normalize saying “Allahumma Barik” when you see someone happy, successful, or blessed. Instead of envy, send blessings their way. They may have prayed hard, struggled silently, and worked with patience to reach where they are. Their joy didn’t come without effort. So celebrate their moment with a heart full of good wishes. And remember—your time will come too, *In shaa Allah*. Keep praying, keep striving. What’s written for you will reach you when the time is right.

[herr-qalb]

Kun-Faya-Kun — and just like that, things can change. You will bloom again, you will heal, and one day soon, you’ll find yourself smiling with your whole heart. Whatever you're going through now is not the end of your story. Keep holding onto صبر (patience), because after every test and every tear, Allah has written something beautiful for you. Trust His timing, and believe that the peace you're longing for is already on its way.

I Love to Read this Whenever I'm Upset; Subhan'Allah!

وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰٓ

"wa lasaufa yu'tika rabbuka fa tarda."

And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be Satisfied. (Qur'an - 93 : 5)

[herr-qalb]

You may have believed it was yours — something you prayed for, waited patiently, and built hopes around. It felt right, so you held on tightly. But sometimes, Allah gently closes a door, not to punish you, but to protect you from what you can’t yet understand. He sees what we cannot, and His decisions are always wrapped in wisdom.

Often, the pain we feel isn’t because Allah has forgotten us, but because we’re holding on to something that was never written for us. And in that loss, there’s a powerful reminder: peace isn’t found in forcing what we want, but in trusting what Allah has planned. Your version of the story might have brought you joy for a little while, but Allah’s version will bring you peace that lasts.

Letting go doesn’t mean you’ve failed — it means you’ve submitted with grace. Know this: when Allah removes something, it’s only to give you something far better. Trust His plan.

I want to be the kind of girl who doesn’t just walk into his life but gently becomes a part of it—like sunlight through the window on a quiet morning. Someone who brings ease to his stress, calm to his chaos, and a softness to the way he views the world.

The kind of girl whose presence feels like home—where he finds peace without having to search for it. I want to be the reason he smiles without knowing why, the person he thinks of in small moments, and the comfort he turns to on difficult days.

One day, I hope he pauses, reflects, and says to himself, “Since the day she came into my life, everything feels a little brighter, a little kinder—and I’ve never felt more thankful.” 💖

Tonight, my mother looked at me a little longer chan usual.

And later, she stayed in sujood a little longer than usual.

I layed my head on her lap, and asked her to explain.

"I noticed you have a heart like mine, that always gives and never stops to receive."

"..and the prayer?" I asked.

"I prayed that you get a love as pure as the love you give. I pray that you are loved for who you are.

I prayed that you are given so much love, that yo don't even know where to put it all down.""

-Prayers from my mother.

There is khayr in everything, but only if you look with imaan. The rain doesn't ruin your plans, it gives you a chance to make more duaa. You broke your wudu, but making wudu again will wash more sins away. You lost something beloved to you because Allah heard things you didn't hear. You can't fall asleep because Allah wants you to talk to Him.Your life is hard because Allah is opening the gates of Jannah for you.

Men stay where they feel peace—but that peace comes from mutual respect. A woman isn’t peaceful by default; she needs to feel safe, valued, and loved.

A man wants someone who helps him unwind from the world, not adds to his stress. But a woman can only be that if she feels appreciated, not taken for granted.

A woman becomes nurturing when her heart feels protected. When she’s secure, she gives love and patience naturally. But if she’s hurt or disrespected, she becomes guarded.

A healthy relationship needs effort from both sides. A man can't expect peace without giving care, and a woman can’t stay soft where she feels ignored.Real love means choosing kindness, listening, and showing respect daily. Peace isn't just quiet—it’s feeling safe. Men stay where they feel relaxed, and women open up where they feel cherished.

So, give what you hope to receive. That’s how love lasts.
