It has been so long since I last posted anything in my blog. With all the new devices such as smartphones and tablets around, I know I have no excuse to be lazy. Anyway life had been going with the usual ups and downs. It has been more than a year now since I last sign in. Something triggered in me to start my writing again. Maybe because I have been emotionally troubled for the last few weeks. The reason....? Only Allah knows. Since a year ago I have enrolled myself in online courses to study more about Islam. Just now I was reading the Seerah of our Beloved Prophet saw....the chapter on Hijra after the the second covenant of Aqabah. It was at this time that a " petite Muslim State " in a vast country with ignorance and disbelief was established. The Prophet saw gave his consent to the muslims to leave Makkah to Madinah. Coming back to present, I find that we all need to migrate physically, or spiritually from time to time to enable us to be a better Muslim. It has been an emotional roller coaster for me since my son left to college in another state. Part of me wants to follow him to look after him, while another wants to stay here where we have created our own little home....Anyhow, I pray Allah swt show us the correct path and keep us steadfast in our Deen,,Ameen
