I just have to say it: I MISS YOU ALL!!! I miss blogging and reading all your wonderful posts and I hate not having time for it. So I had to just post something tonight. Hehe.
I hope you're all doing well! As for me I'm doing well, just studying way hard and have a deadline for finishing most of my bachelor project this Friday morning (which came as a 'pleasant' surprise for me today), 'cause my teacher is taking her Christmasvacation the week after and won't be able to read my project then before the deadline the 3rd of January :-/ Insha'Allah I can work hard and well on it tomorrow and have the things finished that she wants me to.
And on to something else...
I received this by email the other day and thought I'd share it here:
A man woke up early in order to pray the fajr prayer in the masjid. He got dressed, made his ablution and was on his way to the masjid. On his way to the masjid, the man fell and his clothes got dirty.
He got up, brushed himself off and headed home. At home, he changed his clothes, made his ablution and was again, on his way to the masjid.
On his way to the masjid, he fell again and at the same spot! He again, got up, brushed himself off and headed home. At home he, once again changed his clothes, made his ablution and was on his way to the masjid.
On his way to the masjid, he met a man holding a lamp. He asked the man of his identity and the man replied: 'I saw you fall twice on your way to the masjid, so I brought a lamp so I can light your way.' The first man thanked him profusively and the two were on their way to the masjid.
Once at the masjid, the first man asked the man with the lamp to come in and pray Fajr with him. The second man refused. The first man asked him a couple more times and, again, the answer was the same. The first man asked him why he did not wish to come in and pray. The man replied,
'I am Satan.' The man was shocked at this reply. Satan went on to explain, 'I saw you on your way to the masjid and it was I who made you fall. When you went home, cleaned yourself and went back on your way to the masjid, Allah forgave all of your sins. I made you fall a second time, and even that did not encourage you to stay home but rather, you went back on your way to the masjid.
Because of that, Allah forgave all the sins of the people of your household .
I was AFRAID if I made you fall one more time, then Allah will forgive the sins of the people of your village, so I made sure that you reached the masjid safely.'
He got up, brushed himself off and headed home. At home, he changed his clothes, made his ablution and was again, on his way to the masjid.

May Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala grant us perfect Muslim Heart and we all do our Prayers with all our Heart and Soul... Ameen....
