and they shined like never before!!!
It was my first time travelling alone. My flight was at night and I was very much excited that I was going back to my parents. I had a waiting period of half an hour before entering the flight. I noticed how some men were really sad about the fact they had to go back leaving their nears and dears. There were some kids running around the airport simply excited. There was an old couple whom I accompanied seeing the confusion going on with them. They were flying back to their son. They told me everything from their native place to their son's work. They kept on talking and it was nice to hear them speak. Finally I got into the flight and flew. Since it was night time I thought there would be no much "sight seeing", so after the food was served I planned for a nap. What happened next will be the best thing that could happen to me in a long while. I woke up and randomly looked out of the window. The sky was shining. It looked like a black velvet blanket with silver glitter spots covering it. The stars looked just adorable. We usually see stars from the earth but to see them from the sky is different. They were beautiful. I literally can't find the exact words to explain it. Subhana Allah!!!
I saw why Allah almighty is perfect. His creations are the best example. It is simply understood why he asked us to look into his creations. The stars seemed to tell a love story down to the earth. They were surrounding me. The black velvety sky is a very comforting bed for them!!
I wish if I could capture more such sights with my eyes. In sha Allah!

HIJAB-THE TERROR PROVIDING ME PEACE!
I was 8/9 when i first covered my head! My mum had let me wear the scarf to school. It felt just prefect. My classmates were sort of surprised to see me. Growing up I for some odd reason wanted to take it of. I was 15 when i actually fell in love with that cloth covering not just my head but protecting me completely. I changed as a result of my friend and I wish many out there get enlightened by the hijabis around. For me hijab does not mean restriction. It gives me more freedom.. Hijab is not merely the cloth draped around my neck and head. Hijab should first come from deep inside us. Our hearts be hijabified firstly. The Arabic word hijab means curtain or veil.The veil actually protects me from commiting sin or from the evil eyes out there.A pearl protected in its shell is how a woman in hijab is onsidered to be. Allah almighty has made it necessary for the woman in Islam to follow hijab so that one knows how much worth she is considered. We may see people mocking and insulting the cloth or the girl herself. What we need to realize is that how much ever you are being teased or insulted your given double and triple of rewards.
One thing we all assure is that hijab is not merely the cloth. We better be following it in our day to day activities. Modesty be practised in all we do.
Hijab is never a burden. It is nothing forced. It is a choice. I CHOSE to walk around following my hijab. Listening to Allah. I have never been forced to. The media many a times picture hijab as some sort of a "terrorist"!! It is actually funny because those wearing and following hijab have actually found PEACE!!
May Allah almighty open the eyes of those blind!
It February 1, World Hijab Day.
I support all my sisters who have started wearing the hijab.
Prayers and Peace!

RANTS OF A DISAPPOINTED STUDENT!!
Sometimes it is hard to believe when certain things happen
all of a sudden. I am going through a mixture of emotions and worries and more
of anxiety of what the future beholds.
Education system has come to the worst I should say. The way
the whole teacher student relation has turned to
teacher-principle-management-student! And it is horrible. The fact that I cannot
have one of my favourite teachers back to class teaching me on a daily basis
actually makes me cry. Thinking of o more actually teaching happening make me
feel like dropping college. What is the use of learning for three years and
acquiring knowledge if the there is no learning.
I still don’t understand the point where the management plans
to keep the teachers who are-I should use this word- useless and fire those
that took the effort to provide us something good. I am disappointed, very
much. I really wish I can do something. I promise I will. If I have taken up
this course it is on a basis to learn something new from it, and it is my
right. As long as I am restricted from my rights who so be it I will react to
my limits.
Back in school I was scolded for throwing litter in the corridor
and now I witness my college planning to build a centre in our very own OPEN
AIR. It’s a fact many might ask what emotional attachment I have to that place,
the fact Is I do have attachment towards nature. Be it I studied here for three
months or for three years, mother earth is still the same for me.
I pity the people working behind all this. The man who found
the college had some awesome thoughts and views, but right now many are
displaced and misplaced.
What so ever be it, don’t forget oh people, the coming
generation does not sit quietly as you think, they may have their head down
24/7, but if there is an issue to be discussed we all are ready with our heads
risen high up.
After all we the students are here to STUDY, SERVE and
STRUGGLE! J

A TRIP THAT BROUGHT ME CLOSER TO GOD
I was expecting a no by all means when I called my mom. I so
badly wanted to go on a small trip. I wanted to be there celebrating Onam at my
hostel mate’s place. So when I dialled my mom’s number I was having my fingers
crossed just so I hope she says a yes. For some odd reason I got the permission
to visit WAYANAD! One night spend there could be worth all the risk I took. I
know I live in a society where a girl is questioned for everything she do. And
I thank my parents and above all my lord for blessing me with this life. Had it
not been for such awesome parents I would not have been permitted to go
travelling. So thanks mom and dad.
Wayanad was a memory for me. Four years back a camp that
sort of changed hell a lot in my life. Memories were reborn the moment I
started travelling. The weather at this time of year in Wayanad is my all time
favourite weather. Pretty much cold and sunny with a bit of rain here and
there. I travelled by bus and at the last moment my elder bro was ready to
accompany me just for the bus ride.
Onam celebration was ending when I reached my friend’s
place. Still the SADHYA served in the banana leaf and all the variety curries
spread....yummy!! I also met some great people out there. I felt homely. Having
parents abroad and being here alone, the people over there made me feel like I
was at my own place. The relations between each member in the family made me
fall in love with everything Wayanad had to provide. I was not surprised to see
such a great family; I was happy, Happy to know that I am blessed somehow.
Though it was a short stay there I got closer to my lord. I
was given the chance to make myself evaluate me. The way back home I thought
about me, about my flaws, my dreams, my achievements, my fears. I was
speechless!
I still cannot believe that a trip could provide me with so
much. Family bonds, nature, relations, patience etc was brought in view to me.
Probably many reading this will be wondering if I landed
from the Stone Age. Maybe I did, or maybe I love what I experienced. If I get
the chance to spend some more days there, I would go back for sure. I would
love to stay there and enjoy every minute. It is not easy but I still won’t
mind.
Thanks to my friends for a great time and let your families
know big thanks for all the love and care.
Thank you umma and uppa for letting me have some good time.
Thank you, Shabana for encouraging me to go with you.
Thank you, Allah for providing me with an opportunity to get
closer to you. I love you!

A STEP TO THE NEXT DESTINATION
SALAAM FRIENDS
My friend informed me that our school is reopening tomorrow.
I was happy to know that IISD is gonna be back to full of activities. At the
same time i was sad realizing the fact that i won’t be going back there a student. Last year on the day before i was off to school i was lazy, lazy to
pack my bag, to iron my uniforms etc. It was all messed p and i literally
cursed IISD for opening so soon. Now the blue and white salwar, the green
painted walls, those tables and chairs....all seem to be the best memory of my
childhood. I cant believe that i am no more a school student.
It has been a month my college started and i have had a lot
of good and amazing memories. I already made some great friends both inside and
outside the campus. It is surprising how a month of my life could be spend with
so much to remember for a life long time. Roaming around the city with friends,
malls, hostel nights, movies, classmates, photos, bunking, partying, studies,
presentations,elections, debates, fights,friendship every thing happened in a
month. I don't have any regret regarding that fact that i chose to study here. I
love it here.
School taught me how it was a child. And life here teaches
me more than that. It is a big step but still something worth taken.
I thank god for putting me through all the stages i have
gone through. Thank my parents for looking after a rebellious child like me. I
know how short tempered i am with my family, but still they have taken me as i
am!
My life now, alhamdulillah is good. I might be away from my
parents and siblings but still everything is smooth and nice.
As my fellow juniors are off to school tomorrow i want you
all to know that school life is the first destination in the journey of your
life. enjoy and learn.
Thank you!
God bless
Infinity and Beyond
Peace!

SPREAD PEACE!!
Salaaam to all!!
This is to my brothers and sisters out there. I know how
really distracted and irritated to a point we all are. The fact that MODI SIR
is winning. But let us put it this way. He isn’t any god. He isn’t any super
natural human being. He is just another creation of GOD ALMIGHTY. So calling
him names or cursing him has nothing good to do to us or him. maybe if we keep
on cursing and calling him names his bad deeds may be subtracted and ours
added. We all know how our prophets waited. I would like to remind you all of a story during our
prophet’s (Pbuh) time.
There was this girl who would throw garbage at our prophet
(pbuh) all day. She would wait for him to come and do what pleases her. One day
our beloved prophet could not find her. She was absent. He Inquired about her
and found she was ill.He went to Her place and prayed for her. Now how many of
us have this sort of patience and humility. How many of us have at least the
good in us to keep silent.
After all the hadith is “SPEAK GOOD OR PRACTICE SILENCE”. SO
WHY MY SISTERS AND BROTHERS SHOULD WE SPEAK EVIL ABOUT HIM??
If we don’t show the true side of our religion then we will
be the ones paying for it. And modi coming into power should never irritate us.
Coz he is in power coz Allah wants him to be. Let us leave it to Allah. After all
modi is nothing in front of Allah. We all are nothing in front of our lord.
So my sisters and brothers, don’t lower your standards to
those by speaking evil about them. He might be doing bad, but why should you go
down to his level by talking bad about him?? that doesn’t even sound like
sensible!!
So stop swearing and let us spread Islam.
If anyone of you think I support him, nope I don’t. I support
secularism and peace, and I support in the rule of my lord. In sha Allah, India
will live in peace someday!
All we have to do is pray and leave the rest the almighty!
Do share this and spread the word of peace!!! J
Thank you
Peace
Keep smiling
