#Repost @qalbyapp ・・・ Did you know, Khadijah bint Khuwaylid was the first woman to become a Muslim? . She was the first wife of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ), the first to believe in his message when the revelation came and she stood by him through thick and thin. . She was a wealthy and successful business woman who despite her wealth, always helped the poor and was a source of sakinah and support to her entire family especially her beloved husband. . It’s no surprise that even years after her death, the Prophet(ﷺ) still remembered her with such great love and affection. . The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “She believed in me when people rejected me, she confirmed me when people denied me, she shared her wealth with me when people deprived me and Allah provided me with children through her, and forbade me with children from other women.” [Musnad Ahmad] . In the later years, during the persecution and boycott in Makkah, she had to leave the comforts of her home and faced hardship for many years. In her 60’s there were days where she didn’t even have food to eat. . A true test of faith. She lost everything, but her Iman remained strong. . This is a lesson for us to work on strengthening our Iman, to not give up when the going gets tough, and to remain a source of comfort and light, no matter how hard it gets. May Allah be pleased with her. Aameen. #QalbyApp #IgniteYourHeart #TheLightWithIman #DiscoverWithQalby #KhadijahBintKhuwaylid

However at that time, I didn't really want to have any special relationship. Although I liked him as person, I was only open for friendship. It took me a while to really open up to him and accepted him as someone more. He definitely did a lot in the beginning- the chasing, the ignores, unreplied texts and stuff. But in the end, he was still there patiently trying and waiting for me to open the door. Never once he rushed me for anything. Always told me it's okay, I didn't need to answer right away. He had always treated me with respect. Along the way I'd learned that he's the most dedicated, consistent and a hardworking person. And he's a direct person. He knows what he wants and he goes for it. He was the first one who confessed first and asked me to be his girlfriend. I remember he said that I didn't have to say yes or respond to him right away. When he met my family, he told them he would marry me within 2 years and that just showed how serious he was about us. He told me he wanted me to be his last. To be honest, I did doubt that I mean pfft men always say things right? The thing is, he's honest with me. He's always very honest. He tells me everything and he never makes me doubt his feelings for me. Back then he never failed to text me every morning before he went off to work and when he got off, not once. He would come and meet me on every off day, sometimes even on his working day if he missed me that much. So many things to list out and these little things are the ones that eventually made me fall for him. Slowly falling head over heels for the man that he is. I was never attracted to over-coated flirty words, luxury or gifts. I prefer directness, effort and gestures. I told him firmly in the beginning that I didn't want his money because I could buy whatever I want on my own. I forbade him from buying things for me except for treating me food which he always happily did. ❤️

We’re officially tired...Our daughter’s name is Fatimah. We named her after our beloved Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) daughter. Hence, the name ‘Fatimah’ carries a lot of value for us...and supposedly for every Muslim too. Do you seriously think it’s funny to make fun of the name of our Prophet’s beloved daughter? No, it’s not funny to make fun of the name ‘Fatimah’ or any other name. Even worse, in our case, we’ve been telling the world out loud for more than 3 years now. The worst is to see that only our fellow Malaysians are repeatedly making fun of her name - and sadly, all of them are Muslims. It’s saddening to see that even though Allah has clearly forbade this in the Quran, many people still think that it’s a joke. If you think that correcting our daughter’s name is not ‘cool’, ‘chill’ or whatsoever, so be it. Sorry to disappoint you - in this case, we are not that type of cool parents. Please stop spreading the misconception that being a public figure comes with the price of accepting all the bullying as if we are no longer human. Being a public figure doesn’t stop anyone from being human. And yes, we are extremely hurt by this continuous ignorance. Enough is enough! #namecallingisbullying
