During the reign of Abu Bakr as Siddiq there was a very significant drought and people started stressing as there was no rain, crops weren't growing, and they were running short on supplies. People came to Abu Bakr and asked for help but he told them to go back & be patient.

Last year, my daughter was born. I still remember the first time I saw her. Going into the room. Holding her. Having her weighed. Her exhausted mother in tears. All those months culminated in this: a young baby girl breathing her first breath. What a gift fatherhood has been.

"I'm not gonna start praying till I'm sure I can pray all 5x everyday, I wanna take it seriously" "I don't wanna wear hijab rn cause I know I wouldn't do it right" "I'm just waiting till I go Hajj, then I'll start practicing more" ^ All these are tricks from the Shaytan.
