DLadySophia's Tips, Diary and Issues

CLASS IFI CATION OF FRI ENDS A wise scholar once said, “Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.” There’s another popular saying that “P ower and Money are fruits of Life, but family and friends are roots of life. I was once caught lost in thoughts wondering what kind of friends to take with me as i made the transition from one phase of life to another! I realize that the same question has been bordering others as well, but the thing is that when it comes to friendship, there's bound to be a few bad eggs in the crates which now make it hard for us to think about live long friendship. I am some who has lost a lot of friends due to theses so trust me I KNOW!!! Due to little bad experiences, we tend to lose faith but the truth is that there will always be few friends that are worth to be in your life for a long time. Hence I decided to create a classification of the friends ...

ASSALAMUALAIKUM!!!!!!!!! This information is worth gold!! Sujoodush Shukr is like a treasure in this world and al ākhira. Most of us miss these benefits and we don't know how much it's worth. When we do Sajdatul Shukr (prostration of Appreciation), Allah opens the hijaab between us and the Angels. Allah says to the Angels, “look at my slave, he did his fardh and obeyed My teachings and he did Sujuud to thank Me for what I've blessed him with” “Oh My Angels what should he get as reward” The Angels will reply, “Ya Rabana give him Your mercy”. Then Allah will ask again, “and what else?” The Angels will reply, “Ya Rabbana give him Your heaven”. Then Allah will ask again, “and what else?” The Angels will reply, “Ya Rabana make his worries end”. Then Allah Subhanahu WaTaala will ask “what else?” Every time, Allah asks what else, the Angels will reply, something good. Lastly the Angels will reply, “Ya Rabana we have no knowledge”. Then Allah will ...

I recently turned 25 and ever since I'm into making list of 25 things to do.   Here is a list of 25 things to do, which brings you closer to Allah! Nice right?   Well here we go Number 1. Start off each day with 'adhkaar al-istiyqaadh' (waking up Supplications), thanking Allah for waking up in good shape. Number 2.   Always Put Allah first in your life. Number 3.   Broaden your horizons - learn 5 new verses from the Quran every day, travel to pray in the masjid, to brighten your day, take up a booklet having supplications and read them. Number 4.   Pray Salaat Al-dhuhaa (after sunrise).

Yesterday was another Sunday , so my siblings and i went out for our usual Sunday funday outing. First we had brunch @ chronicles in palm view mall, which sadly i must add was not to par, as all their food was over priced and not even well seasoned, their beef was a day? no two days old and was tasting really terrible. After the terrible experience @ chronicles eating a bad unhealthy meal . We went to watch a movie in a CINEMA at palm view mall. It was my first time in a cinema, i was very excited and I'm glad it met my expectations.  VIVA cinema was really a good first for me, and it was a good, no ; perfect birthday gift in arrears, from my colleague at work. The movie my colleague selected was Queen of Katwe, to be honest i had  thought i would probably sleep through the whole movie, as it was an African movie filmed in Uganda or about Uganda . I was certain that i was going to hate it, but i was wrong, the movie was very nice i loved it, i enjoyed it, it was ...
