“Fight against the sin until you abandon it and if you cannot, drown it in a heavy rain of good deeds.”
رَبِّ إِنِّي لِمَا أَنزَلْتَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَقِيرٌ
"My God, I am truly in great need of any good that You might send down to me." {Quran - 28:24}
“Rabbi inni lima anzalta ilayya min khairin faqir” 🤍

How beautiful, that i pour my heart out on earth and it is heard in the Heavens by al-Wadud, the Source of all love. The One, who waits to hear from you, yet He knows what you ask Him before you ask Him. The One who is ready to embrace and comfort you when your heart is torn. The One who is eager to run to you even if you take a step towards Him.
I have learnt that Allah will always answer our du’as — sometimes not exactly how we would like it, but always better than we ever imagined. His answers are perfect and comes at the most perfect time; never a second too late nor too early. So be persistent in making du’a and have full faith that Allah is listening.
Du’a is the rope of hope we hold on to whenever we are in utter desperation. Don’t wait to turn back to Him. Even if you haven’t prayed in a long time, even if you feel distant from Him, even if you’ve been engaging in sins; with Allah, all it takes is one sajdah or a sincere du’a and you will fall right back home.
حزنٌ يردُّك إلى الله، خيرٌ من فرحٍ يُشغلك عنه
sadness that brings you back to Allah is better than happiness that takes you away from him
