Everyone I know (and including myself) that increased their iman and began to practice more strictly had something in their life go sideways almost immediately. It means that your heart is in the right place and Allah is testing your resilience. When not missing any salah was just a thought in your head it didn’t matter but now your thoughts are becoming deeds.
May Allah recognize your efforts as pure and make it easy for you and all of us 🤲
Thank you for sharing this. I have been having a similar journey with faith. It is not the same because being Muslim is a very different embodied experience than a Hindu savarna turned Buddhist. But you reminded me of what it takes to get closer to my Buddhahood and the hard work of letting things go that pose obstacles to that path. I wish you so much protection in your path!
Just remember that Allah swt is testing you, and sometimes that means filling your life with difficulties when you grow closer to him. The fact that you still show up despite the hardships, is proof that he has something so beautiful in store for you, insha Allah. May he make your journey easy for you, and bless you abundantly for your efforts.🩷
your words mean everything to me!!! Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart. You’re such a powerful, intellectual woman. Capable of moving mountains, insha Allah I can’t wait to see all that you accomplish.
I love this. You're inspiring me to get on here and write something (it's been a few weeks...) thank you. So awesome and so true, every word. And f. those corporate folks - they want everyone to be a cookie cutter shape and you don't fit in and that's a good thing in this case.
Ukhti I know Allah is doing what is best for you even if it hurts sometimes. May Allah make this transition easy for you and show you what better things he has planned for you
way more meaningful and i’m just grateful that i’ve been blessed with the opportunity to do this work. I think if we frame everything in our lives from a faith based lens, it is easier to have tawwakul and to allow the most High to take care of all our worries and anxieties, ultimately everything we don’t have control over
