And..

 My last good deed is letting go..

t.

Absence

It's not the absence of you that brings me pain,

But the regret of missed opportunities that remain.

If only I had known the depth of this sorrow,

I would have cherished our time together more tomorrow.

I would have called you a little more often,

And come back home, my presence not forgotten.

We would have cooked together, day by day,

Your recipes forever in my mind they'd stay.

I would have asked you countless questions, no end,

Listening to your stories, a conversation to extend.

We would have taken long drives in the night,

Holding hands, finding solace in the starlight.

I would have been there, watching your favorite shows,

Sharing laughter and tears, as our love grows.

I would have listened again to your tales of Nabi,

Finding joy in your words, the memories set free.

And I would have kissed your cheeks more than once,

Expressing my love, a tender and loving response.

I wish I could do it all, no matter how small,

To bring comfort to my heart, to answer love's call.

I miss you deeply, with every beat of my heart,

May Allah grant you a place in Jannah, never to part.

I pray for your soul, dear Abah, with all my might,

Amin Ya Rabbal Alamin, may your journey be bright.

In your absence, I strive to honor your name,

To live with love and kindness, your legacy to claim.

Forever in my thoughts, forever in my soul,

I carry your love with me, making me whole.

To the person from another world

In this vast universe, O Allah, You are almighty,

Bless him, for he is wise and virtuous, a soul so mighty.

Grant his dreams to soar high, O Allah, hear his plea,

May his aspirations be fulfilled, with blessings abundantly.

His heart, a reflection of his noble grandpa's grace,

Keep it forever tender, in every time and place.

O Allah, preserve his giving hands, always lending aid,

His words bring comfort, joy, and serenity, never to fade.

In moments of doubt, when courage may waver,

O Allah, guide him towards success and favor.

His hazel eyes, a radiant light, his smile divine,

May his presence bring solace, like a heavenly sign.

O Allah, the Most Loving, shower him with affection,

Even if love is not from mine, let him experience its perfection.

O Allah, with Your divine touch,

As I express my admiration for him, I cherish so much.

Put yourself first.

Recently I go through my online reading and I would love to share more words from one of my favourite islamic scholars that might helps and lift up us—

“A friend will not share your struggles, and a loved one cannot physically take away your pain, and a close one will not stay up the night on your behalf. So look after yourself, protect yourself, nurture yourself and don't give life's events more than what they are really worth. Know for certain that when you break no one will heal you except you, and when you are defeated no one will give you victory except your determination. Your ability to stand up again and carry on is your responsibility. Do not look for your self worth in the eyes of people; look for your worth from within your conscious. If your conscious is at peace then you will ascend high and if you truly know yourself then what is said about you won't harm you”

Live your life with this principle: Be good even if you don't receive good, not because for other's sake but because Allah Loves those who do good."

— Imam Ibn al-Qayyim
