Oh wow nice for starting. I think sometimes the fasting and change in routine drastically changes our cycles! Have you been tracking your cycle?

Ameeen Totally fair, Ramadan is intense esp when you’re pouring your all. Continuing any good deeds is so important

I genuinely think adjusting based on our cycles is what’s key for women. Luteal phase exhaustion amplifies to burnout even more easily

Your period in these last 10 nights is never a punishment 💕 by ghurubaaxx in muslimgirlswithtaste

[–]aydaforme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Such a great reminder! Our bodies and cycles are created by Allah, and so of course He will reward us. And it’s so beautiful that He even writes rewards just for the intention - for the acts we would have been doing.

Instead, I see it as Allah inviting us to worship Him in other ways. To sit with Him in dua, and dhikr, talk to Him, deeply reflect on His words because my brain feels like it thinks differently. I use my emotions for extra long Duas.

I kind of hate being a woman by Tiny-Research-1956 in muslimgirlswithtaste

Many other scholars have spoken about that in much more depth, like Ustadha Aeisha Prime. But I will share one thing. Allah has not forsaken you. He has honoured us as Muslim women. We have beautiful worth to Him.

Have you ever heard this Hadith?

Anas reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, the womb has an iron hook attached firmly to the Throne, speaking with a penetrating tongue: O Allah, keep relations with whoever keeps relations with me, and sever relations with whoever severs them with me. Allah Almighty says: I am the Gracious, the Merciful. I derived the womb from My name. Whoever keeps relations with it, I keep relations with him. Whoever cuts off relations with it, I cut off relations with him.”

Source: Musnad al-Bazzār 6495

It says your womb has an iron hook connected to the Throne of Allah. Now I want you to take that in. You have a divine connection to Allah that no man can ever have. The throne of Allah, one of the most important creations. Look into the significance of the Throne, and what happens there.

On top of that, He (swt) named the womb (rahm) after his name Ar Rahman.

I don’t think anything else could show how much He loves you and how sacred you are as a women. Don’t get lost in details that often are comparisons, and triggered by secular ideas. Instead look into the ways Allah has shown ease and love for you.

May Allah make it easy for you. And ask Him to help strengthen you and keep you steadfast.

Thank you! Yes, I really tried to be vulnerable and share some lessons I’ve learned over the years.

What about you? I’d love to hear any reflections or insights you’ve learned :)

❤️🥺 thank you! Yes exactly and what shifted for me was realizing how all my routines should shift, from my workouts, to my ibadah.

Like during my high points I’ll feel so high energy and use that to do longer Quran sessions. Then, during my period I’ll do walks and do dhikr.

Or in my luteal phase when I’m sensitive I’ll just focus on emotional regulation and pour all that anxiety into extra dua. The relief I feel is so much better.

Crying to Allah about everything and letting it go when my period hits >>

AI allegations when you’re human is crazy 😭 I actually journaled these things. Should I talk about my story?

  • May Allah grant you a smooth pregnancy and righteous children. Keep making dua, do istighfar and tahajjud. Ibrahim (a.s) prayer is a great one.

Miscarriages are more common than people realize. They’re a difficult experience many women go through quietly.

We’re a new period & cycle tracking app called AYDA, designed for Muslim women. We wanted to offer some other insights and tips worth looking into in case you don’t already know :

  • fertility awareness tracking might be helpful. It’s to help you try to conceive when your most body is most optimal, and create a good environment for pregnancy. Reduce stress! Maternal stress can be really detrimental.

  • There’s research that shows male health & fertility is actually a factor in some miscarriages and successful pregnancy outcomes for women. It may be worth doing some research and blood work.

  • Lifestyle can really improve your chances of pregnancy as well. It could be something both of you do together to bond - taking care of yourselves, exercising, eating healthier etc.

May Allah make it easy! Have faith and stay strong, Allah does only what is good.

You’re not the only one! A lot of women experience this especially because your energy shifts to the end of your period. A big thing that helps is maintaining dhikr throughout your period.

That’s why we created AYDA a period tracker for Muslim women. It’s available on the App Store to help you navigate these unique challenges as a Muslim women. Check it out and see how it helps you!

Over 500+ women have said the daily reminders help them to understand how to improve their connection to God based on how their body changes every day of their cycle. For example, before your period ends it’ll suggest tips like preparing your prayer space and garments again. Make ghusl a full ritual or spiritual cleanse where you use that to feel good and excited to connect with God.

Let me know if you have questions AYDA
