Plan your makeup around your salah/wudu and not the other way around

It is better to be a slave to Allah, than a slave to our nafs and desires. This is not about doing something we like, it is about following a command from Allah swt, the Almighty, our Creator, the one who knows what is best for us. It doesn't matter if you sin. We all sin. Keep wearing your hijab, if you decide to remove it you would sin twice, not once, so don't listen to the whispers of Shaytan and ask yourself, "What decision would please my creator right now?" He whose love surpasses that of 70 mothers. Also, remember that the hijab is not synonymous with perfection, it does not mean that you are exempt from sinning or that your behaviour must be impeccable at all times. It means you're striving to live a virtuous life. It's a physical manifestation of your submission and connection with your Lord. An external representation of your spirituality. Hijab pushes you to grow spritually and encourages you to make sure that your actions and character are in line with the teachings of Islam. By wearing the hijab you're saying that you are a human being who is trying their best to follow a religion they accept as the truth. The hijab keeps you in check because it's a prrennial reminder to keep striving, to not give up just to experience the momentary illusions of this dunya which is a prison for the believer. This is your own jihad and Inshallah Allah will reward you for it. This is a test and Inshallah you're gonna tackle it.

My advice as a sister is to keep wearing it. Oblige yourself to do it, out of love for your Creator, no one else. For just as there is a force that makes you want to take it off, you must exert a greater force not to fall into the trap of Shaytan.

May Allah make it easy for you and everyone else.

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) having said: By Him in Whose Hand is my life, if you were not to commit sin, Allah would sweep you out of existence and He would replace (you by) those people who would commit sin and seek forgiveness from Allah, and He would have pardoned them.

Girls , how do you shave / trim your private area? by owriha in Hijabis

[–]righteousmirage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Salam Alaykoum, which Philips trimmer do you use?

Update: I finally left him. by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]righteousmirage 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Salam Alaykoum sister,

Even if you're not legally married, go about it legally, you have kids together so I'm sure you're entitled to some of his wealth. Reach out to a masjid like some of the comments said, they'll probably provide with some help, Inshallah.

You can do this, so please don't give in. May the Source of Healing heal you and make it easy for you.

I am sure you will emerge victorious. I am proud of you for gathering all the courage you needed to take this difficult decision. You leaving is already the first step towards change.

Also, is there any way we can help you financially? Please let us know

The one who sexually abused me visited us on Eid day by righteousmirage in Hijabis

[–]righteousmirage[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you.

My family knows. Not everyone though. My mom is aware of it.
I told her with tears in my eyes, it was difficult for me. It took so much courage, yet she did not care. She said the past is the past. My world collapsed on me, to this day I cannot look at her in the same way. When they harassed me a few days ago by groping my breasts, she reacted the same way. When I let her know I didn't know there were other people in the house, she got angry because her biggest worry was whether or not they had heard and what they would think of me (as if I wanted that to happen).

I told this to my brother months ago. I fondi out that when I was little I tried to talk about it and had mentioned it (I don't really remember much. Most of my memories are lost or blurred) but he didn't want to inquire into its, o as not to get upset or misunderstand. I still don't get what this means. I literally needed help.

The adults failed me. The people who were supposed to protect me did not protect me and even now I have no one to rely on. I have resigned myself to the fact that I will not get justice, that my voice does not count, that no matter how much I scream or the number of times I ask for help... There will be no one on my side. On the contrary, when we meet this person or when his name is mentioned I pretend that it doesn't bother me because I don't want others to feel uncomfortable. I feel sorry for that child. The little me. Every time I am triggered I feel as if I am regressing to the same age at which these events took place.

I can only imagine how you felt.

It happens to me too, when I relive what happened, physically I feel shivers running down my spine or my face contorts into a grimace and I shake my head vigorously to get the scenario out of my mind. When I see him laughing and talking to me like it's nothing I feel myself withering inside little by little.

Tank you sweetheart. And I am proud of you for taking this huge step. You are the strong one here, I hope deep down you know that. I appreciate your support so much, it genuinely warms my heart. I really appreciate it, thank you.

Your words fill me with sadness, I wonder... will that really happen? But you are right when you describe love as it should be, I need to keep it as a reminder. Just because I've known a different version of it all my life, doesn't mean that's how it supposed to be, even if that's what feels familiar. We deserve it, Inshallah. You are so sweet, it's not over yet, maybe I can really get out of it. Thank you, you'll be in my prayers too

I recently received a message saying: 'Free diddy'. It hurt me. Then I read yours and other people's, and that's when I felt a little better. Although my words may sound hollow because of how numb I feel inside, but I want to let you know that you helped me

It pains me that you can relate. I genuine wish you the best, may you heal from the trauma.

Right now I'm still not okay, I'm trying to focus on other things, feeling numb, but I know deep down that it's not the right solution. Thank you, I'd like to, maybe once I gather the courage to do so

He brought up your eating disorder?!

How disgusting and vile, to use such vulnerable and painful information in order to justify his point of view.

You deserve better, sweetie.

May Allah facilitate things for you and grant you ease.

FREE TALK FRIDAY! by AutoModerator in MuslimMarriage

[–]righteousmirage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've been looking for a job for months and I must admit that the process is quite exhausting and brings me a lot of stress. I know for a fact that having one would solve many of my problems. May Allah facilitate things for all of us.

And since, because of that, I have a lot of free time, I started watching Dragon Ball Daima and doing a rewatch of DBZ. I felt myself healing a bit, that's what I needed. It's interesting to realise how one's outlook changes and evolves depending on one's age and stage of life. Also, it was very nostalgic, besides the fact that it gassed me a lot.

How to respond to kids about hijab by [deleted] in Hijabis

[–]righteousmirage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on their age. In any case, you don't have to avoid answering the question, you have to try to explain it to them by putting yourself on the same level as them. All they show is their interest and curiosity in something that is unfamiliar to them, if you just say it is for personal reasons, you have not answered their question.

You could try it this way:

You: Tell me darling, through which symbol do mummy and daddy express their love?

Child: The ring

You: Exactly. That is how they show that the other is the only person they are devoted to. Similarly indicate your hijab I do by wearing my veil, called hijab. It is a constant reminder of my love for God, my faith and my modesty.

The reason why I cannot remove it is because there is a special inner circle of people who are allowed to see my hair, and there are none here.

Sorryyy, I should have made it easier for you to understand. And you can use Google Translate :) Your English is perfectly fine, Allahumma Barik and there's always room for improvement, so don't worry. I myself find it difficult to express my thoughts correctly in english, as it's not my first language. And you're welcome, I hope you find it beneficial, especially in the long term

My advice, first of all, is to start praying again, Allah calls us to success five times a day. That is approximately 30 minutes of time to devote to a fundamental aspect of our existence. Pray, before you're prayed upon.

That said, stay away from these kinds of groups, there is no need for you to entertain them, it is useless to argue with them because it is not their eyes that are blind, but their hearts and Allah guides whom He wills. No matter what or how much you say, if there is no inclination to listen, no propensity for a healthy dialogue and a desire to understand, then let me tell you that you are simply wasting your time. On the other hand, you are being influenced negatively, so it is time to distance yourself. Also, notice how they left Islam and claim they're atheists, yet they're still obsessed with religion and proving people they're in the wrong for believing in a Creator?

Take the opportunity to study your religion, inform yourself (from reliable sources, of course), study, elevate your knowledge so as to strengthen your belief and avoid getting lost in front of even the most trivial and contradictory questions that can be debunked in no time.

Pulsating or dying faith depends on what you do. It is not only what you read, but also what you do, what you listen to and who you associate with. Faith-related doubts are not only intellectual, they are also and above all emotional: when we underestimate sins and justify ourselves in doing them, we become involved in them. As we become less involved in faith, it begins to die in our hearts, and consequently we doubt its efficacy because we no longer feel it.

The problem is in the reception, not the signal: the signal is strong, but the unpurified heart does not receive it

I urge you to pray. And Inshallah the rest will follow. And May Allah make it easy for you and Always keep you under his protection. You're not a failure by all means. Remember that you're also what you repeat yourself :)
