I'm fine. Believe me, I'm fine... ...just a little tired. (Chuckles) Okay...maybe I'm very tired. I just need to stand. Oh. I don't want to stand. This moment will pass. I wouldn't always be this sad. When the time comes that I stop being this sad, Just pray I haven't died.   Zaynerb

Whether or not we choose to admit it, we all want to be liked. It is no news that it can be frustrating if you can't get a single person to like you. Imagine living life without a few people to talk with or hang out with. Imagine being by yourself for the rest of your life - no talks, no friends, no fun. Boring right?

By Zaynerb I was on my phone reading a post. Now I've been listening to her talking about how hurt she is and how much pain she's been through. As she poured her heart out, I made sure to put my phone away to listen to her speak. I did this to make her comfortable and to assure her she had my attention. And as she spoke, I didn't speak, I only listened. Soon she stopped talking. And I said; "may Allah ease our task".  I thought it was all over and maybe she still doesn't entirely feel good, but she certainly feels better. After all I gave her attention. As she lay down to rest I went back to my phone. It was really quiet and I was unsuspecting. Unconsciously, I looked at her and I didn't notice it at first. She was staring at the ceiling and I kept looking at her. That was when I noticed the tear that rolled down her eyes. I knew that tear very well. Tear that comes silently but bears the heavy weight of immense pain and sadness of the heart. It was te...

Written by: Olawoye Sunday Mayowa In a recent interview with Pastor Poju Oyemade of the Covenant Christian center, Pastor E. A. Adeboye, of the Redeemed Christian Church of God said "make new friends, and keep the old,  one is silver while the other is gold". This statement has further awaken thoughts about friendship and relationship in our age. Our generation is littered with people with little or no friends, some keep a limited friend cycle while others have situational friends.

This is your answer;  It's a common saying that "if you want to achieve faster, go alone, if you want to achieve faster and go farther, go with a friend."  Friendship is synonymous to having company, while Companionship means having people around to do things in common, think, help an...

Assalamualaikum. I pray this meets you well. Ramadan Mubarak So you spent months thinking what went wrong with your relationship with God. You thought of reasons why you're so far from God. Why it's not so easy to recite the Qur'an anymore. Why you don't pray nawafil anymore. In fact, you can't even remember the last time you prayed tahajjud. Not wanting to blame yourself, you gladly put the blame on work. Don't smile. Yes, you. You that put the blame on school. You also don't have enough excuse. Now when you speak you say, "I used to read the Qur'an." "I used to spend my night in prayers." Do you hear yourself? "I used to." May Allah rectify our affairs. Now Ramadan is here and you let the days and nights go by like every other day and night? Did you hear the applause? Its for you. You're fasting Ramadan, Alhamdullilah! You spend your day fasting but is that enough? No, you don't recite the Qur'an. Y...
