Help Gaza

-

 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullah all. How are u doing?


I'm writing on my phone, 6am and I haven't slept at all. I'm ok, I am visiting my friend and we had a nice evening, talking, eating pizza and sauna. Maybe it's because I'm not at home, I have been very anxious and lot on my mind, I haven't gotten any sleep. Sometimes this happens, I might need some extra medicine and in sha Allah I'll be fine.


...


So I have had time and u know, just been scrolling social media. That alone is sometimes upsetting to me. But especially now when as we know, Greta Thunberg and the rest of the group are being threatened. And the genocide happening. I'm sorry, I can't think straight and get my words right.. but u know what's going on and has been going on. I wish I could do something. I wish their task will be succesful, as the march to the Gaza border too. 

It's also the day of Arafa. Our duaas must be with the Palestinian people. Of course with everyone who is suffering. How our world has come to this, how this can happen? Why our leaders don't care or care enough? The answer is that people who hold the power don't care about humanity. The consequences will be severe.

I'm not the most articulate person. I don't know what I can say exept la ilaha illallah. May Allah be with the oppressed and give them the peace, safety and their rights.

Do what you can. Even a prayer. The next couple of days will be crucial and I truly wish for good news.


...


I see u readers come back and thank you for that. I can see the countries you are reading from, from the statistics. I welcome all of you. Just one thing bothers me. There's the countries, like lately Singapore, Hong Kong, Mexico, even El Salvador, then USA and Finland, Sweden too and Ireland, and some others too. Then there's "Other", where I see many reads come from, and I never have known what it means. There has come many reads just now and I wonder what's it about. If you have hidden your ip address, that's fine. But this is my own space, this little blog, and I only welcome those with good intentions. To be continued...


...


I try to now close my eyes for a bit and take it easy. Stress is not good for me and definetly the news are stressful. If I take a break, that's a priviledge which I have to use now, but I do care. Again, I ask you all to do what you can to show support for Palestine. And everyone who needs help.

In sha Allah we will have better news. Thank you for reading, until next time,


Aisha

Middle of everything

 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullah 🌻 how's everything? The pause has had an good impact. I've done mindfulness exercises every day, and focused a little more in this world and all that is going on currently. And right now I'm, once again, learning about the right balance.  ... As a muslim, I am not supposed to be attached to this world, dunya, because it is temporary. The temptations there are, are making it easy to let desires lead one's life. And lead it astray. To me, for example, it doesn't take much. If I slip on few steps, I will feel very quickly I have gone more distant from Allah (swt). That only brings me emptiness.  So an easy way might not be a good way. But balance is not an either - or. It's found in the middle. ... I love nature. Animals, plants, the sun, the moon. Wind, rain, snow. Ocean and forest. I dream of a simple life, and to feel rooted in the Earth. Because this world, as we know it, doesn't exist only in vain. It is filled with beauti...

Had a nice time

 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh each and every one :) how has your weekend been? I'm happy, alhamdulillah, I've had a very nice weekend. Yesterday I was out at bit, had lovely time. Today I walked to a nearby shopping mall, to a halal market to be specific, and bought few things for today's dinner. I made a Finnish dish, meatballs with mashed potatoes and some boiled green beans. I'll share my meatball recipe below (sorry, no pictures.. but if you are used to cook, you will succeed with this recipe in sha Allah). ... Alhamdulillah. I'm listening an instrumental version of the Algerian song "Aicha" and enjoyed some green tea. I've upgraded my teas and occasional coffees by making them in a high, thick glass. Instant coffee looks like a latte, instantly, lol :) Tea also tastes more refreshing from a glass. Hmm. Some tea lingo, english to finnish: tea - tee green - vihreä black - musta maito - milk oat drink - kaurajuoma sugar - sokeri hone...

 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh :) how are u doing? Alhamdulillah. I got to visit my friend last weekend, we just both had flu so we didn't really do much else than what we were capable of: drinking tea and coffee and scrolling through Tiktok. But alhamdulillah. It was nice to see her and it was nice to come back home to hubby and turtle too. I'm still a bit feverish but getting better in sha Allah.  ... Fast forward to evening, I made some pancakes with date syrup, yum :) a nice treat. I've been crying all day, not gonna tell the reason, I'm sorry, but just things seem frustrating sometimes. Pancakes were a good medicine for this and a hot shower later, and I will be new again in sha Allah. For some time again.. ... Suttis, the tortoise, was lucky today to receive a package my husband kindly went to pick for him. A sleeping hut! Well, basically he just checked it with a slight interest and layed down elsewhere (on the cold hard floor..) and I did what al...
