story of the day
----------------
A person came to the prophet saw and said "o rasoolullah! i love u so much"
the prophet saw replied: "think well before you say this."
the person said, " i have already given it a thought. i love u v much, o nabee of Allah"
the prophet saw said "think once again before you declare such a thing."
the person said, "i still love u so much"
the prophet saw then said "well if ure sincere in wat u say, then b prepared to face hardships and want coming to u from all directions, for it pursues all those who love me, as swiftly as water running downstream."
-----------------------------------------
so now dont feel unhappy about it.. if u face hardships etc :p if u love Allah and his prophet saw then u'll have to go thru many difficulties n worries.. we bettertake a lesson from this incident.. hehe :) i have heard this thing from so many ppl.. who are trying to b a "good person".. that when they try to b good.. they face more difficulties.. but now we know that its natural.. so dont worry so much!!

was busy!

salam!
well ive been asked many questions so i guess i'll just tell u my routine!
as u all know we have summer holidays :D alhamdulillah (luv teaching ;))
anyway i went to lahore and then omer joined us.. we all went to karachi and that too in a train! yesssss!
it wasnt taht bad really.. i kinda enjoyed it..we started our journey at 4 pm and reached there at 10 am the next day.. it was supposed to reach there at 8 am :p
attended my cousins nikah! we went to khi for four days.. so didnt have much time..e everybody was busy.. the cars were busy and i was dying to go to the beach.. and so was adeelah (my cousin).
thanx to omers friend..he took us to the beach :D
loved it :)
oh well.. that friend was a chat friend too :p
the next day he invited me to his house .. so that i can spend sumtime with his wife :)
i had fun at his place.. omer went out for breakfast with him.. and i stayed at home with his family. i enjoyed talking to his sister.. v talkative :p
but his wife wasnt v talkative.. (shy maybe)
but i was shocked when i was told that she wants to go back to lhr with nomi bhais family.. nomi bhai works in khi. the reason she gave me was that she gets bored here! (obviously when her hubby isnt around).. then i thought about myself
i wont even think of doing that! i cant think of staying with omers family if hes living in sum other city.. i'll go n live with him!!
i think she was scared because she cant cook! i told her to learn cooking n stay with her hubby :p i hope that she does!
anyway then we came back to lahore.. had a nice lunch at chicago grill! had the yummmiest drink there! called strawberry freeze.. yuuuummmmmmmmmmmmm :D
then we came back to isb :)
i had fun.. alhamdulillah!
im a bit nervous though.. my bhabi is in isb so ive invited her 2morrow and 2 other families as well.. i am gona cook!!!
never cooked for big dinners b4 :p
so pls make dua :)

ungrateful

been ages since i posted sumthing here!
i missedddd blogging hehe..
i read sumthing which i would like to share..

the prophet saw said "my Allah offered to turn the mounts of Makkah into gold for me. but my supplication to him was, "o Allah! I would like to eat one day and feel hungry the nxt, so that i may cry before THEE and remember Thee when i am hungry, and be grateful to Thee and glorify Thee when my hunger is gone!"

after reading this i felt that i have been very ungrateful :(
we have so many things and still we dont thank Him enough..why are we so greedy?
we have good food to eat..clothes to wear.. shelter! everything n still we are ungrateful!
i was just looking at my jewellery! i dont even like gold and sill i have tonssss of gold jewellery..
actually i was thinking of getting rid of it.. specially the big sets.. they arent of any use! i mean i cant wear those sets at home (too big).. and i have to cover myself when i go out! then why should i keep it?
but i have to keep it.. otherwise its going to offend my mil! why cant we do things that we want to do? and when we know we are doing the right thing?
uff!
i dont want to own so much jewellery- i better think of ways of getting rid of it!
