Sincerely, Sumayah — The Messy Middle

“We keep going, even when the light seems impossibly far away. That's precisely the type of darkness required for yaqeen to be born.” Under the weather but still wanted to share this with you guys.

What your days can look like with Allah's permission. I've shared different practices here and there, now this is what a day with Allah looks like start to finish.

We spend so much time trying to change our habits. We start, stop, try, fail and start again. What if there was a way to create a permanent/consistent change? ...without needing to wrestle yourself in the mud. Talking about Tawassul — the practice of asking Allah with a sincere offering you presented at some point in time, with the hopes of Him answering your desperate Duas in the present.

I'm not doing anything wrong. I'm a good person. What's happening?

Why isn't this working? Am I doing it right? What's holding me back? Keep going. Keep heading towards Allah. You're on the right track 🩷

This episode is about what happens when Allah wants something to happen for you, waiting for answered Duas, understanding delays and asking what it would cost/mean to be without His blessing and pleasure.

What happens when you are regular with Surat Al-Baqarah and you slip up and fall back into mistakes you used to do? How do we handle setbacks, delays and being in limbo?
