Read MoreDay before yesterday
i was randomly scrolling
through Ramadan lectures
and i was already feeling
low as i wasn't prepared
for Ramadan and deep
inside my heart i was
contemplating my relationship
with Almighty Allah as i felt
my imam was low due to personal
and as much external reasons
of society.
As i was scrolling i came
across a lecture by Dr. Yasir
Qadhi
"What if I'm not motivated
for Ramadan" ?
As if Almighty Allah heard
my dua as seriously i wasn't
enough motivated knowing
from past two years i was
caged in lockdown due to
pandemic.
I went through lecture
and saw this as vital sign
how Almighty Allah guide
us when we sincerely ask
for way out...
This reminds me of
Qur'an verse
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَآلًّا فَهَدَىٰ
Translation
Did He not find you unguided then guided you ?
Surah : Ad-Duhaa 93:7
Ad- Duhaa is the ninety-third chapter of the Qur'an, with 11 āyat or verses.
I was awestruck by the mercy of Almighty Allah
on my fragile soul and i feel ashamed of my
unthankful nature towards his blessings.
That's said i guess this isn't me alone
who'd felt not enough motivated for Ramadan
as each one of us are struggling differently.
As recent pandemic left most of us
in distress and it was more of a traumatic
phase which you and i have gone through.
Some lost their parents , few lost their
relatives and each one of us lost sometimes
which no one can compensate. Allah knows
best.
Saying this Ramadan isn't about who will
finishes reading maximum Qur'an , who
will be racing for the charity , who'll be
performing nafil and who'll be standing
whole night doing ''Qiyam-ul-layl ".
Almighty Allah cleary stated in Surah Al - Baqarah
شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أُنزِلَ فِيهِ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ هُدًى لِّلنَّاسِ وَبَيِّنَـٰتٍ مِّنَ ٱلْهُدَىٰ وَٱلْفُرْقَانِ ۚ فَمَن شَهِدَ مِنكُمُ ٱلشَّهْرَ فَلْيَصُمْهُ ۖ وَمَن كَانَ مَرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٍ فَعِدَّةٌ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَ ۗ يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ بِكُمُ ٱلْيُسْرَ وَلَا يُرِيدُ بِكُمُ ٱلْعُسْرَ وَلِتُكْمِلُوا۟ ٱلْعِدَّةَ وَلِتُكَبِّرُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا هَدَىٰكُمْ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ
Translation
Ramaḍan is the month in which the Quran was revealed as a guide for humanity with clear proofs of guidance and the standard to distinguish between right and wrong. So whoever is present this month, let them fast. But whoever is ill or on a journey, then ˹let them fast˺ an equal number of days after Ramaḍan . Allah intends ease for you, not hardship, so that you may complete the prescribed period and proclaim the greatness of Allah for guiding you, and perhaps you will be grateful.
Surah Al- Baqarah Chapter 2 Verse Number 185
Ramadan isn't a sprint rather marathon so try to
push yourself to finish line without competing with
others but yourself.
If you can't read Arabic try to read Qur'an in
your mother tongue , and those who knows
Arabic try to understand the translation.
No matter what at least try to understand
the message what Almighty Allah is trying
to say , reason it , pounder and try to live up
to the knowledge blessed by Almighty Allah.
Knowing pandemic was traumatic but
this shouldn't be our excuse to distance
ourselves from this holy month.
Knowing someone's is dead shouldn't
stop us from distancing ourselves from
ALMIGHTY ALLAH.
Knowing something didn't go according
to plan shouldn't be our reason to
be disheartened
Knowing someone left us shouldn't
stop us from praying , when you and
i are well aware prayer is an link with
Almighty Allah which connects our
souls.
I know I can't cover everything in this
write up but my only concern is that
Almighty Allah loves you despite your
sins , you might be disobedient child ,
you might have done alot of haram ,
you might be adulterous , you might
involved in alcohol, you might involved
in riba ( interest) , you might have
cheated and you might be backbiting.
My motive isn't to advocate you
sinning rather to call you for
repentance .
When Almighty Allah happens
to me most merciful then tell
me who I am to judge knowing
I'm just other sinner.
Let's race up for this Ramadan.
Let's strive for hereafter.
Let's give up on sinning.
Let's embrace Qur'an to understand
the message of Almighty Allah.
You and i are capable of everything
Just making through this Ramadan
finish line is enough rather than
giving up simply without even trying.
Five things what we're capable of
1. Salah fives times a day note you can stretch your limit by doing nafil.
2 . Reading Qur'an a page or two with translation.
3. Not skipping fasting i.e unless you have periods or fallen sick or travelling ( make up this fast after Ramadan).
4 . Engaging in Charity i.e ( who are capable of giving zakat and you can also give a date if you can't afford remember charity is intention of one's heart).
5. Attending taraweeh prayers if you can't make it 20 rakat , make it 8 rakat knowing this is sunnah of our Prophet ( something is better than nothing). And last but not the least worshipping in the nights of
Laylatul Qadr if you can't make it for last ten days
try to pray on 21 , 23 , 25 , 27 and 29.
I hope you find this useful and Almighty Allah
make this Ramadan a peace affair.
Ameen Ya Rab Ameen...
Remember our one Ummah in your prayers....

Read MoreGood Night
Serene Soul,
The night covers you and
I hope it gives you rest
and a gentle reminder
that all things end and
so shall your bad mood.
I am so proud of the
person you have become.
You carry your own vibe
now. If people like it, they
are most welcome.
If they don't like it you
always leave the doors
open. That is what
makes you strong
and beautiful. Also,
at the end of the day
you realize that you
are human, you are at
peace that mistakes
are inevitable.
Nobody is mistake proof
and so you are going to
make mistake and you
accept that you are
going to make them.
These mistakes don't
define you. You have a
kind heart and it isn't
necessary for you to
prove it to everyone.
You know better than
to care about that.
That is what makes
you beautiful. You
know that you are
only responsible for
your own actions
and you don't hurt
anyone intentionally.
That is what makes
you beautiful. You also
know that what other
perceive about you is
none of your business
and they can feel free
to create any image in
their minds cuz what
they are good at.
You are beyond that and
that is what makes you
beautiful. You are bigger
than your moods , you
know to take stand for
yourself and you don't let
other people's opinions
to stop yourself from
making decisions.
You know what is best
for you and you will take
decisions that will help
you to get to your
destination, that is what
makes you beautiful.
You don't need people to
think too much about you,
you can handle yourself,
you know how to keep
fake sympathy out and
you don't pretend, you keep
it simple and real.
That is what makes you
beautiful. It has taken
you a long time to know
your worth and you don't
need me or anyone to
remind me of anything
such but sometimes
reading helps to pull us
up from deep water.
You are happy knowing
your worth which was a
long process, so you
don't let anyone spoil it,
that is what makes you
beautiful.
I wish you hapiness and
soothing as the northern
lights that gives the traveler
hope in the darkest ....

#inkzephyrtales
#ink_message_to_selfYou have a kind heart
and it isn't necessary
for you to prove it to
everyone.

Read MoreAnother
Adventure
The picture in the frame
holds a lot of memories.
Some good, some sad.
Her tired eyes roamed
over it one last time
before she tossed it
in the fire.
It was time to start
afresh leaving behind
the dark past which
never defines her.
She set her soul free for
another adventure to
conquer the demons
hidden deep within her.

Read MoreDivine Poetry....
You are my forever poetry
resonating vowel-chime
of I do vows.
Litotes to phrase
my true thoughts
I end up scribbling
poetry in your name.
I am a lost poet
in search of your
mystic aura I
stay aloof under
the moonlit weaving
the couplets of
your persona.
You are a metaphor
which I crave and
you are a chink to
my poet's dilemma.
There's wide talk
in poet's death
society.
Are you even real ?
Looks like Picasso
walking aesthetic
portrait....
What a personification
of divine I must say
you are poet's dreams ,
a walking poetry who
breathing in between the
lines of my poetic tale...
Indeed you are
synesthesia of
poet's vision , a
jigsaw puzzle to
immature audience
too naive to be real.
You are my
surreal feeling
in my ink of
aesthetic tales...

Let's Start Again
You met by coincidence...
And you decided to walk
away without a goodbye.
And I loved you only to
miss you and my yearning
for you is killing me.
I wish to send my
soul to wake you
up cause I don't know
whether to wait or
forget.
Now my poetry don't
rhyme it smells like
sorrows but you still
remain zephyr touch
to my soul.
I'm still waiting , hoping
on the path which you
don't even cross and I
know life has it's ups
and downs.
I wish to ache your
heart like mine.
Then will you apologize
For the pain you caused....?
This is just metaphorical
expression but not from
my heart...
I ask no compassion
but my choice to feel this
deep sorrow is cause of
my foolish heart.
And you have a part of
me which you deny , I've
been part of your life but
not the most important
one...
You are pure soul even
in my absence , you wished
to follow me but couldn't ,
you were trying to say something
but you couldn't , you still
managed to remember in your
silent prayers and that's why
I won't forget you.
You're my eternal love
maybe when the time
is right you'll find me
again....
I've no regret in loving
you cause I've started
with you and I'll certainly
end with you as the journey
hadn't begun and the road
hasn't ended.....

I veiled her as metaphor
to rhyme with my I do
vows of forever.
She's breathing alive
by quenching my ink
yet seems lost to her
conscious self .
She's both my poetry
and prose who's smitten
by her longing for void
silence.
She's my faithful companion
in poetic realm who ended
up befriending adjectives of
mistaken identities who now
assume she's lost in translation.
Not knowing she's victim
of her thoughts , being
long suffering and embracing
the darkness now she calls
it as her peace home.
She isn't just a metaphor but
my poetry waiting for a me
to unveil her from the shackles
of insecurities .

Read MoreI MISS EVERYTHING
I'm just staring at my phone.
I don't get any calls or texts
from you anymore, and it
hurts.
I miss those days when you'd
spam me with random cute,
corny, and sweet messages
that would make me smile
or cheer me up.
I miss those days when you
would surprise me with
"good morning" and "good
night " texts.
I miss those endless
conversations we'd have
starting from the moming
until late at night.
I miss our daily conversations
and talks we once had. It went
from everything to nothing.
Everything we once had,
went down the drain .
I'm just wondering when will
I ever get another call or text
from you again, but I know
that it won't happen again...

things to say than silent

Cause I deserved

She still talks about me
in her poetry while
ignoring my true
existence...
She loves me so well
she'd veiled me in her
silent metaphor....

I wanna travel to the land
where you dream of me.
To know it isn't just a dream...

Tell me what should
I do with the unsend
drafts.
Late night questions
about your absence.
Checking the status ,
Deletion of texts.
Waiting hopelessly
for your return only
to find out you least
cared about my
existence.
And all the above
mentioned sufferings
doesn't even make any
sense...

The tales of my life,
i will keep on narrating.
As we all know ,
People will keep coming,
People will keep going
The ones who have stayed
in our life, will keep on
testing us,
In autumn the leaves
will keep falling,
But still the flowers
will keep on blooming,
They will come to meet us
this lamp of hope we will
keep on lighting ,
My heart was bound
to break, to hide this
Stories upon stories I
kept on crafting,
After her leaving,
I made every effort
to keep my love's
world hiding,
Even though I will only
find relief through medicine,
but I'll still keep her tales
alive by narrating,
The feeling of my heart I
will transcribe it through
my pen and keep on
inking her tales ,
I know, that deaf is this
world but I my poetry I
will still continue to hum..

You are my forever moon
to my lonely nights.
I weave you in my absence
I wear your perfume calling
your name.
I stay aloof under moonlit
Humming your braveheart
tales.
You are missing from me.
I guess there's blessing
in this and i left on my
creator who's watcher
of my affairs.

I know you aren't in arms
but always in my
prayers.
Afterall true love
isn't always meant
to stay together.

She has a part of me
which she denies.
But she make sure to
chant my name in the
amidst of chaos which
numb her pain.

Her soul is pure
so were my intentions.
But distance triumph
over our fate....

We only travel home
when we're tired.
If in case you're
tired by the treacheries
of the world.
Remember you have
my arms which you
once called HOME...

My friend ended up
asking about my bestie .
How's she.
But he doesn't know
we don't talk anymore.
I smiled remembering
her. She's gone but her
aroma still lingers in my
breath.....
