Love knows know limit, Love knows no shame

This morning, we have been blessed with loads of snow. The city is entirely covered with flakes and roads are covered with endless white carpets. The scenery is beautiful and almost magic. But in this white morning, I have witnessed a scene which literally made my heart "melt". And for some reasons, I needed to share this with you...because something like this, I rarely see.

A couple were crossing the street and the woman almost fell. Her man held her tight, hugged her, asked if she was OK and looked at her boots. He kneeled in front of her, on the cold snow, while she rested her hand on his left shoulder, he removed his gloves and he tied her boot laces. Then he stood up, kissed the top of her head, held her hand and crossed the street together.

Rare are the ones who will help their partners dress up, ties their shoes or wash them up when they know they can't do it themselves or when they know they need help and support. Especially for men
who have been culturally speaking brainwashed or raised.


Love knows no limit. Love knows no shame. Love knows no embarrassment. Love knows no humiliation! Love is light. Love is to be lived and felt everywhere not only behind closed doors. Never be embarrassed of a person who loves you and who's willing to do the impossible for you.


Walk in peace everyone,

Nermine B.

School of Life

Every human being was born with a heart, but many hearts grow to be dead and blind. We were born with ears, but even those who "hear" can be so deaf. We have eyes to see, but we decide to “pretend” and to close our eyes on what really matters. We were born innocent, but we made the choice to be unjust toward others. Some are "educated" yet they are so ignorant and know nothing about the School of Life and Manners. Many pretend to be so practicing or religious, and yet they are full of selfishness, hypocrisy and lies.

Many don’t know the true meaning of Love, of Respect, of Satisfaction, of Mercy, of Sharing, of Giving, of Sacrificing …. Some people are simply made like that, they take but never give.
Sooner or later, these people will suffocate in their own miserable life. Sooner or later, they will regret but maybe then, it would be too late to look back.

In this blessed day, and with the Celebration of the Birth of our beloved Prophet, PBUH, let us all remember his Sunnah, let us all remember how he lived, simply and modestly. Let us all remember that this ummi man (illiterate) was the best of teachers, had the best of Manners, he was the most loving man and husband and father. He had nothing and yet he gave to others the last date he had in his house. Even when his daughter was sick and a needy and hungry man nocked on his door, he gave him the LAST Pomegranate he had to feed his sick daughter. But he knew that the mercy of God is SO big that he would soon be rewarded with MORE and Better than what he just gave up or lost. He used to help his wives, play with them, smile to them, greet them, hug them, he never insulted his wives or ANY other human being, not even his enemies, he never lied, he never cheated, he never spoke words that can hurt or humiliate the other. He was poor, he had no degrees, but he was the best of all mankind. He was the best to his people and to others.

On this day, may all of us learn from this great Man, salla Allaho 3alahi wassalam.
May our sons grow to be Men of honours and Manners just like our Prophet, pbuh.

I love you all for the sake of Allah swt


Walk in peace,

Nermine.

P e r f e c t i o n

 

Perfection belongs to the One & Only, to the Creator of all Mankind and of All things. He who seeks perfection in this dunyah (life) shall die and never find it, except in Paradise.

Unlike what many say … do not pursue a mirage. Perfection is one of them.

Walk in peace,

Nermine B.

"If you give a little love, you can get a little love of your own."

"If you give a little love, you can get a little love of your own."

My younger sister shared this beautiful video with me and it's now my turn to share it with my circle of friends. A small act of kindness is never really "small". If you think about it, each act of kindness that you do or receive is endless and it opens a new circle over and over again. It doesn't cost you a thing and yet, it could change someone's Moment, it can even save someone's Soul or Life.

Sooner or later, it will pay back. You cannot possibly understand the beauty of "Giving", "Helping the other" and "Smiling" until it really hits you.

"O mankind! Allah created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that you may know each other (not that you despise each other). Verily the most honored of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things)." Nobel Qur'an (49:13)

Give it a try, it wont hurt :-)

Walk in peace,

Nermine B.

He saved a soul and an entire family ...

Another beautiful story in today's world. This man, with his kindness and good manners, he not only saved another soul but rather an entire family and gave them a chance to live together and to stay out of trouble.

Humanity is still fine my friends,

Walk in Peace.

NB

Like the ocean

"This worldly life, the dunya, is just like the ocean. And our hearts are the ships. We can use the ocean for our needs and as a means to get to our final destination. But the ocean is only that: a means. It is a means for seeking food of the sea. It is a means of travel. It is a means of seeking a higher purpose. But it is something which we only pass through, but never think to remain in. Imagine what would happen if the ocean became our end – rather than just a means. Eventually we would drown." - Yasmin Mogahed

الهموم

عن بن مسعود رضي الله عنه قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم : من جعل الهموم هما واحدا هم آخرته كفاه الله هم دنياه ومن تشعبت به الهموم في أحوال الدنيا لم 

يبال الله في أي أوديتها هلك 

(رواه ابن ماجه في سننه رقم ٤١٠٧ و حسنه الشيخ الألباني في تحقيق سنن ابن ماجه)
