I now am a single mother of two children. I have been miserable for a long time but lately I have been learning how to be content the way things Allah has prescribed for me.
I started off with another online diary when I was going through a painful divorce, and this is my newest diary, the Redesign of Mumina. What is the goal? To find peace, to strive towards securing a beautiful place in the afterlife, to no longer allow my worries and sufferings of the wordly life deter me.
(Surah 13:11) There are guardians over everyone, both before him and
behind him, who guard him by Allah's command. Verily Allah does not change a people's condition unless they change their inner selves. And when Allah decides to make a people suffer punishment, no one can avert it. Nor can any be of help to such a people against Allah.
That is it. I have to change what is in my heart to save my soul, inshaAllah. To find the peace that I long for inshaAllah. To be the Mumina I strive to be inshaAllah. To earn the pleasure of Allah inshaAllah. To be a mother who can give the children of my womb a solid upbringing inshaAllah so that they too become of Al-Muminun.
I hope my dearest sisters who stood by me through that will be right here with me on what I hope is a beautiful journey of blossoming into who I am meant to be because I know that sad, depressed, angry, and hateful is not who I am meant to be. Allah would not have brought me to His guidance if that is who I was meant to be. And Allah knows best.
Eid Mubarak

Oh Sister, Iam so proud of you! Allah will certainly help us when we take that first step, and if we go walking to him he will come running to us! And who do we need but ALLAH? s.w.t.
I am still in my same situation, no internet at home, although my daughter is much better and her father and I have come to a peaceful understanding, alhumdallah.
Inshaallah all will get better and better for you,

Salams Mumina. I dunno if you remember me, but I used to have a blog called "The Covered Lady". Anyways, I just wanted to say that I am happy you are doing well! InshAllah you'll visit me on my new blog.

Wa alaikum asalaam Naeema, of course I remember you, I wondered what happened to you, I could not longer find any of your blogs, covered lady or niqaby beauty. I had wondered how you were, I am glad to hear from you - I always refer to you in my head as "my young sis" lol.
Anyway, maashaAllah, it was so nice of you to come by and of course inshaAllah I will stop in on your blog. My addiction to polyvore has dried out!!
Take care sis, hope your eid was special, and please relay salaam from me to your family.
Have Hope Always.
Salamu alaykum,
I think sis all we could use little self reflection from time to time and build up ourselves. you have realized that and it's half wining allready.
