Description
Summary:We often feel overwhelmed by all the tasks we face in our everyday life; whether as employees, mothers, fathers, homemakers. We often wish for some time for ourselves, time to relax, time off. Some me-time. However, once we have that me-time, we do not come out as refreshed as we had wished or expected. Why? One on One With Allah As Muslims who want to draw nearer to our beloved Allah, we should try and transform every moment of me-time in time with and for Allah. Our me-time should be time when we are one on one with Allah. Only us and Allah. Because it is in this special me-time with Allah that we can really, fully draw new strength and recharge our spiritual battery. We will gain energy for our worldly life and insha’Allah be more content and relaxed in our undertakings. We will receive light that guides us through the day. Light that illuminates the darkness of difficult times. And we will insha’Allah prepare for our time in the next world.
