Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Fudail ibn Iyad, may Allah have mercy on him, said:
إِذَا خَالَطْتَ فَخَالِطْ حَسَنَ الْخُلُقِ فَإِنَّهُ لا يَدْعُو إِلا إِلَى خَيْرٍ وَلا تُخَالِطْ سَيِّئَ الْخُلُقِ فَإِنَّهُ لا يَدْعُو إِلا إِلَى شَرٍّ
If you mix with people, then mix with good character for it only invites to good. Do not mix with bad character, for it only invites to evil.

Ibn Umar, may Allāh be pleased with him, said:
“The servant will not reach the reality of righteousness (taqwa) until he leaves what wavers in his heart.”

I always regret being vulnerable
in some ways it feels like i held my breath for something when i was nine years old and i never exhaled. it very much feels like that today
Hasan al-Basri رحمه الله said : “Sell this life for the next and you win both of them. Sell the next life for this and you lose both of them.”
[al-Hilyah 2/143]
One day I’d like to see an article on the cognitive dissonance between struggling with who we are vs who we present ourselves to be on social media.
It’s an interesting psychological phenoma that has barely been explored.
- # i've been observing this for some time
- # I know people who present themselves as arrogant and aloof but know them to be proper miskeen in real life
- # social media gives us a facade and creates an entire culture built on cynicism which stops some people from going through personal change
- # and self reflection
- # which then stops them from connecting to others in real life
- # lemme shush now before i go in too much
- # personal

Fear the day you feel no remorse for your sins.
I have a very soft spot for miskeen people. Wherever they are, I will protect them.
