"To the generals who accompanied me in the recent weeks, it seems we are about to part ways, but I thank you from the bottom of my heart. For the extraordinary humanity you have shown towards my daughter Emilia. You were like parents to her, allowing her into your quarters whenever she wished. She acknowledges feeling that you all are not just her friends, but truly dear and good loved ones. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the many hours you spent like a nanny.
Thank you for being patient with her, for showering her with sweets and fruits, and everything available, even when it was not. Children should not be in captivity, but thanks to you and other kind people we met along the way, my daughter felt like a queen in Gaza. In general, she felt as if she were the center of the world. We did not meet anyone on our long journey, from the rank and file to the leadership, who did not treat her with gentleness, tenderness, and love.
I will forever be a prisoner of gratitude because she did not leave here with a lifelong psychological trauma. I will remember your kind behavior, which was given here despite the difficult situation you were dealing with yourselves and the severe losses you suffered here in Gaza. I wish in this world we could be truly good friends.
I wish you all health and wellness."

Calling all teachers and parents!
The most profound legacy of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), beyond the revelation of the Qur’an, was the caliber of his companions whom he left behind. He nurtured individuals so exemplary that each one could have been a worthy candidate for leadership after him.
Parents, teachers, scholars, and mentors - your impact isn't just measured by what YOU achieve, but by those who carry your legacy forward. Succession is a true testament to your success.
There is a profound difference between believing in the Day of Judgement and centralizing it. All Muslims do the former, but it is only a select minority who achieve the latter.
Believing in it entails accepting its existence. Centralizing it, however, occurs when the thought of that inevitable day constantly lingers in one's mind, ever-present, from the break of dawn until the moment one rests, till it becomes the compass that navigates your everyday thoughts, statements, decisions and actions.
I know you believe in it. Have you centralized it?
Life's heaviest burden is to have nothing to carry. Just as we recognise how eating is not only necessary, but can be a source of immense pleasure, the same holds true for duty and responsibility.

The Ummah's Du'aa
Gaza's crisis is in the global spotlight. While Muslims globally advocate and act for Palestine, all highlight the importance of Du'aa. Yet, many aren't sure how to make or sustain such a prayer. Join in this collective Du'aa, where your "Aameen" will resonate with its intent.
May it be global.
May it be nightly.
May it be answered.

إِنْ تَكُونُوا تَأْلَمُونَ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَأْلَمُونَ كَمَا تَأْلَمُونَ وَتَرْجُونَ مِنَ اللَّهِ مَا لَا يَرْجُونَ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا
"If you should be suffering - so are they suffering as you are suffering, but you expect from Allah that which they expect not. And Allah is ever Knowing and Wise." (Al-Qur'an, 4:104)
As the IDF mobilizes half a million troops towards the besieged city of Gaza from every direction, and the US redirects its aircraft carriers closer to Palestine, we, too, are summoned to action despite being miles away;
We implore the Ever-Present Sovereign of the Universe to be with His believing allies in this pivotal moment of history.

Recreational companionship is one of the most common love needs between spouses and also one of the best divorce-proofing strategies. Too many spouses stray from their marriage because they are attracted to someone else who shares their interest at work or in a particular hobby. Being able to share a recreational interest helps protect your affections from seeking someone else’s attention.

What is success but the sum total of many failures? Since failure is unavoidable, don’t try to avoid it. Instead, just fail better—which means fail with purpose, fail when attempting the things that matter. Then, learn from it and get back up. Avoiding failure is to avoid the greatest teacher of success.
