The Light.

Sūrat An-Nūr (24) has 64 verses.It teaches us that true light is not only seen—it is lived.Allah is “The Light of the heavens and the earth”, and when faith meets sincere action, the heart becomes illuminated.“Light upon light” reminds us that guidance grows through purity, truth, and humility. One light is belief, another is good character, another is turning back to Allah again and again.In daily life, this light appears when we choose modesty, guard our words, forgive, and let the Qur’an guide our choices.When we walk toward Allah with sincerity, He places light upon light in our hearts and paths.

Dear listeners Today I want to share my reflection on verses 77-83 the end of Surah Yaseen that’s always stayed with me.I love the structure of God’s reply:It starts with a skeptical question:“Who will bring these bones back to life after they’ve decayed?”But see how Allah responds.He doesn’t say, “Because I am God and I command it.”He answers with gentleness, logic, structure He points us back to what we already see — the One who created it the first time, who brings fire from green trees, who created the sky and earth , who breathes life into what looks lifeless.So reflect around you and be mindful within your life and see , Then comes that simple truth:“When He intends a thing, He only says to it, ‘Be,’ and it is.” everything responds to Him.And the surah closes with this:“So glory be to Him in whose hand is the dominion of all things, and to Him you will be returned.”Look closer: signs are already all around you.Allah is inviting us to notice reflect think be mindful be grateful!A reminder that the One who began all things is the same One we return to the same One holding everything together.So reflect on this even in your daily lives. if something in you feels past saving a dream, a part of your faith, your hope remember, the One who brings fire from green trees can bring warmth back to your heart too.Thanks for being in this journey with me 💐😌

Dear listeners,I pray this message reaches you in good health and with a heart full of blessings. May these verses of the Qur’an bring light to your heart and warmth to your soul. I hope they inspire you to pause, reflect, and reevaluate your journey in life.Storytelling is one of the most powerful ways our minds and hearts make sense of the world, of ourselves, and of those around us. At times, life feels overwhelming — and that’s okay. In those moments, return to the Qur’an. Read or listen to a few verses in Arabic or English, and allow everything else to fade away for a while. Let the rhythm of Allah’s words touch your heart and soul, for truly every part of us — even every cell — testifies to the Oneness of God.As your life coach in this podcast, we will reflect together, using the Qur’an as our guide. Through our daily du‘a, we strengthen one another and ask Allah to fill our hearts with His love and shower us with His blessings, so that we may always remain grateful. Alhamdulillah.Now, let us reflect: What life lessons can we apply from Surah 28, Al-Qasas (The Story)?🌿 Life Lessons from Surah Al-Qasas 1. Allah’s plan is greater than human planning • The story of Prophet Musa (Moses) shows how he was saved as a baby, raised in Pharaoh’s house, and later chosen as a messenger. What seemed dangerous was, in fact, part of Allah’s divine plan. • Lesson: Even when life looks uncertain, trust Allah’s wisdom. 2. Oppression does not last forever • Pharaoh ruled with arrogance and oppression, yet his power did not save him. • Lesson: Injustice may seem powerful, but Allah’s justice always prevails. 3. Humility and gratitude lead to success • Qarun (Korah) was wealthy but arrogant, boasting that his wealth was his own achievement. His arrogance led to his downfall. • Lesson: True success is in humility and using blessings to serve others, not to glorify ourselves. 4. Turn to Allah in hardship and ease • Musa turned to Allah in every stage: as a frightened youth, a refugee, and later as a prophet. • Lesson: No matter where we are in life — struggling or stable — our refuge is always in Allah. 5. This world is temporary, the Hereafter is lasting • Allah reminds us that the worldly life is fleeting, while the next life is eternal. • Lesson: Anchor your heart in what lasts forever, not what fades.✨ So, dear listeners, as we walk through our own challenges, let us remember the lessons of Surah Al-Qasas: trust in Allah’s plan, remain humble, resist arrogance, and always keep our eyes on the eternal home.

Dear listeners,We are reflecting today on Surah Luqman (Chapter 31)—a chapter that feels like coaching teaching us how to truly live with purpose and light.It reminds us to be deeply grateful, to have unwavering faith in the One and Only God, and to nurture goodness both inwardly and outwardly.

I feel an overwhelming sense of love and gratitude for Allah—Who guides us, nurtures us, and showers us with endless blessings through the Qur’an.May these words inspire us all to live gratefully, and keep our hearts connected to Him.

Dear Listeners,Welcome to Sura 32 – As-Sajdah (The Prostration/ Bowing Down in worship) This surah calls us to bow in humility before our Creator, reminding us that life itself is a gift — health, family, love, and every blessing we enjoy. It teaches us that gratitude is not only felt in the heart but lived through action, and that every deed, seen or unseen, is counted and will be returned in full on the Day of Judgment.In our daily lives, we can live the spirit of As-Sajdah by pausing to be thankful, by bowing our hearts in prayer, and by turning each act of kindness into worship. In every moment of gratitude, we draw closer to Allah.Have a Blessed Day 💐
