WHEN IT RAINS INSIDE

 When it rains inside, all you need is a cozy blanket, and a warm room.

The rain becoming heavy each and every day, shaping the way you think, feel, and decide.

When it rains inside, all you need is someplace to shelter and wait. Close the window and shut the doors. You don’t want to wet other people’s shelter.

Wait for the heavy rain to subsides.

You can’t run in the heavy rain outside. It will make you sick when people see it.

When it rains inside, the clogs from water drainage must be cleared. Because you don’t want the rain to be stagnant, creatING a flood of emotions that’ll eventually drown and kill you.

But sometimes,

When I rain inside, I just want the windows to be opened. Let people know I’m having a battle here inside. It's not wrong, is it?

Sometimes when I rain inside, just want to be in the rain and feel the flood of emotions running through my veins. Awakening my deepest clogged up feelings and revealing them for myself to see,

for myself to find comfort. 

ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ وَتَطْمَئِنُّ قُلُوبُهُم بِذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ ۗ أَلَا بِذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ تَطْمَئِنُّ ٱلْقُلُوبُ

“those who believe and whose hearts find comfort in the remembrance of Allah Surely in the remembrance” 13:28

Hug yourself, brace your feelings.

Go get your shower and spray some fragrance. Make your bed and do your laundry.

Enjoy every little thing that makes you feel accomplished.

This is the nature of the life of a servant. It is surely being tested with rains, and drought, and storms and many more. But it is never left alone.

There's nothing alone in this world. The only thing that’s alone, is Him. Allah.

ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلْحَقُّ وَأَنَّهُۥ يُحْىِ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ وَأَنَّهُۥ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

“That is because Allah alone is the Truth He alone gives life to the dead and He alone is Most” 22:6

Get up because you are never left alone. 

Get yourself up and walk with pride (izzah).

For you are one of the blessed souls, to understand and learn His deen.
