Quotes of Wisdom

[Rahima]

The word “shams†(Sun) is feminine and “qamar†(Moon) is masculine. The sun burns itself out to give light and life to everything around, and the moon is muneer, meaning it reflects the light. Within itself it has no light; it radiates the brilliance of the sun. So when we shine as men, the implication is that we are reflecting the light of our glorious women. May Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’aala be pleased with them.

Rahima,

Why Women Cry

 

Why are you crying, a young boy asked his Mom?

 

"Because I'm a woman," she told him.

 

"I don't understand," he said.

 

His Mom just hugged him and said,

"And you never will, but that's O.K.".......

 

 

Later the little boy asked his father,

"Why does Mom seem to cry for no reason?".

"All women cry for no reason," was all his Dad could say......

 

The little boy grew up and became a man,

still wondering why women cry.

 

Finally he knew the anser

 

 

His dear friend told him dont ask Why women cry so easily ask

" why God made women cry so easily?"

 

 

"When God made woman,

HE decided she had to be special.

HE made her shoulders

strong enough to carry

the weight of the world, yet,

made her arms gentle enough to give comfort...

 

 

HE gave her the inner strength

to endure childbirth

and the rejection

that many times will come

even from her own children.

 

HE gave her a hardness

that allows her

to keep going and take care

of her family and friends,

even when everyone else gives up, through sickness and fatigue without

complaining....

 

 

HE gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all

circumstances. Even when her child has hurt her badly....

 

She has the very special power to make a child's boo-boo feel better and

to quell a teenager's anxieties and fears....

 

HE gave her strength to care for her husband, despite faults

and I fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart....

 

HE gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but

sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him

unfalteringly....

 

 

For all of this hard work,

HE also gave her a tear to shed.

It is hers to use

whenever needed and !

it is her only weakness....

When you see her cry,

tell her how much you love her, and all she does for everyone, and even though

she may still cry, you will have made her heart feel good.

[Rahima]

wow masha-allah that is so true wallah. There was this story that I heard...it goes like this: this guy wanted to be a rich guy so he went and asked this other guy for help. The other guy told him that "if you bring me your mother's heart I will make u the richest person". So he went and killed his mom took her heart out and went his way. While he was on the road, he tripps and fells to the ground...the heart of his mother jumps up and asks him "are you ok my son?" and so the son realizes the mistake he has done, and feels horrible inside, so bad that he wants to commit suicide...and when he is about to do it, the heart speaks up again, saying "no my son don't do it, you've killed me once, don't kill me twice." and that just shows you how much our mothers can love us...u know...no wonder why paradise is under their feet...may Allah forgive our parents. Amin.

One of my favourite qoutes/poems.

-------------------

If you think you're beaten, you are;

If you think you dare not, you don't;

If you'd like to win, but think, you can't

It's almost a cinch you won't.

If you think you will lose, you're lost;

For out in the world we find,

Success begins with a fellow's will,

It's all in the state of mind.

 

If you think you're outclassed, you are;

You've got to think high to rise.

You've got to hustle before

You can ever win a prize.

Life's battles don't always go

To the stronger or faster man,

But sooner or later the man who wins

Is the one who thinks he can.

[Pujah]

"Happiness is a butterfly, which, when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you."
