As Salaamu `Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatahu

MashAllah la quwwata illa billah. Sister, Allah has blessed you with excellent writing skills. Do continue to write such wonderful articles. I agree with Noor. You should write a book on this topic.

I hope to see similar high quality articles on this website. I usually don’t visit this website that often(guess thats going to change).

Jazakillahu Khayra, re: Hajar alayha salam’s struggles: your description of the crying infant rang so true. Imagine the desperation of a mother to console her helpless infant.
Hajar alayhas salam persisted and kept moving. In other words, she kept tying her camel while trusting in Allah ta’ala: never giving up physically or spiritually.

Your idea has admittedly crossed my mind at times. A book! Me? Please remember me in your dua’s. If Allah so wills, I can write a book one day, but only with His help can it be possible.

The image is sort of symbolic – like a seedling that is weak physically but lays the foundation of the future trees in the garden, so too, is the Muslim woman physically challenged at times (she’s not as physically strong as men, and has to endure phases of weakness) but lays the moral base of the Muslim ummah.
I just stumbled across it online and initially I thought it was not appropriate, but it grew on me. Apparently it wasn’t all that bad after all.
