A Mouth to Feed, A Soul to Rectify

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious and Most Merciful. All praise is due to Allah and Allah only.

It has been a very hectic week for me and how I wish I can have more time to do everything that comes in my way.

Work at the office suddenly piled up, I would say I'm a bit confuse as to which one I'm going to do first. Because all are urgent! I really really REALLY need to learn how to manage my time more wisely. And I have to be more sincere in doing my work, because it is the rizqi from Allah s.w.t.

I have to constantly remind myself and correct my intention to work for Allah s.w.t. Instead of feeling it as a burden or just a source of money, I actually am worshipping Allah s.w.t. That feeling is the sweetest.

I am so far away from being a perfect muslimah, but I will try.

*Fudayl bin 'Iyyaad said,

"If an action is sincere but not right, it will not be accepted; and if it is right but was not sincere, it will not be accepted until it is sincere and right. The sincere one is that which is for the sake of Allah and the right one is that in conformity with the sunnah" Then he recited,

"So whoever hopes for the Meeting with his Lord, let him work righteousness and associate none as a partner in the worship of his Lord." - Al-Kahfi (18:110)*

May Allah protect my heart and yours from intending other than His rida. Ameen Allahumma Ameen.
