Stay single until falling in love means finding a partner, not a purpose. Stay single until you have concrete goals, and plans, and dreams, and places you want to go. Find purpose within yourself, so that the person who one day becomes your significant other will always be a teammate and partner but never the sole reason that you have to exist.Stay single until you know who you are outside of whoever you date. Stay single until you understand yourself outside of the relationship you’re in – where you know what kind of person you are and what you like and what you want to spend your days doing, without needing a significant other to define those things for you.Stay single until you love yourself enough so that another person’s love makes you joyful and happy and full, but not whole. Stay single until your own self-love is enough for you. Stay single until you learn how to be proud of yourself when you accomplish something, and how to be gentle with yourself when you fail. Become someone who knows how to love their own company, so that you can still find joy and fullness with a significant other without ever depending on them for completeness and wholeness.Stay single until you love yourself for the right reasons. Stay single until you become someone who lives boldly. Stay single until you’re someone who makes an effort to feel alive every day. Stay single until you are someone who makes yourself try things that scare you, and things that expand your world, and things that are outside of your comfort zone. Become the kind of person whose thirst and thrill and joy for life are constant companions among you, so that you never become complacent or idle or empty.Stay single until you become someone like this. And once you do, take your time to enjoy it. Remember that you are not becoming this person for someone else, you are becoming this person for you. If a soulmate happens to come into the picture, great. They will only be bringing more joy, and laughter, and lightness into a life that is already complete, and filled, and whole.

Aku senang sekali saat hujan turun, apalagi kalau aku sedang di dalam rumah. Aku langsung ke tepian jendela dan menikmati nyanyian merdu saat rintik hujan menghantam tanah dan dedaunan. Buatku bunyi-bunyian itu merupakan musik terindah.

بل تكاد تكون قاعدة أن القلب لا يصحو إلا بالألم والنفس لا تشف وترهف إلا بالمعاناةIt is almost a rule that the heart does not mend except through pain, and does not recover and regain its tenderness except through suffering.

“My Lord, make me an establisher of prayer, and [many] from my descendants. Our Lord, and accept my supplication.

Our Lord, forgive me and my parents and the believers the Day the account is established.“

[Qur’ān | 14:40-41]

Hey guys, since my previous post on Morning Routines was very well received,  I decided to make a night version. This small infographic thingy outlines the things I do at night to prep myself for rest, as well as some other things you could try to ensure you get a good night’s sleep. Hope this helps, and don’t hesitate to drop me an ask if you have any questions!

P.S. the typefaces used are Bromello and Montserrat

I’m a very ordinary human being; I just happen to like reading books.

She bears pain better than most and that’s why people do not think she is struggling. They do not recognise she is hurting each time her lungs inhale and exhale, how every breath feels like a dozen stab wounds.

Books and words are this century’s alchemy and pixie dust. They’re the only magic we have. But what a magic.

Pure. You will always be longing for that. Just once in a lifetime you want to feel pure again. Just like on one good day when the universe welcomed you to the world for the first time.

If you could tell me any hadith right now, what would it be?

Abu Huraira reported: A man asked the Messenger of Allah pbuh, “Who is most deserving of my good company?” The Prophet pbuh replied:

أُمُّكَ

“Your mother.”

The man asked, “Then who?” The Prophet pbuh said:

أُمُّكَ

“Your mother.”

The man asked again, “Then who?” The Prophet said:

أُمُّكَ

“Your mother.”

The man asked again, “Then who?” The Prophet pbuh said:

أَبُوكَ

“Your father.”
