another jewel in real life ...

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim
 اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ

Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh

Alhamdulillah syukur ... 

AlhamduLillah syukur ... syukur and sabar ... for life is a gift ... our life and that of our loved ones ... syukur arises from iman ... sabar from understanding ... may Allah SWT keep us strong ... ameen.

but sometimes it takes an extraordinary incident for us to realize the extraordinary gift of Allah SWT ... and invariably each of us has a story to tell ... but i am grateful that this daughter of a blessed father has shared hers ... a reminder for all ... AlhamduLillah ...

and ... the other side of hajjah ... 

 among loved ones at queen alia international airport ... amman ... 

dear friends ...
hajjah ... if she is a man ... she would not be staying put ... her love for words start with "vagabond" ... she likes to move about incognito ... in strange lands ... she talks way too much to strangers ... young and old ... that's how this blog writing started in fact ... she wanted to share her amazing interactions with those elders sitting outside a bank ...

she likes to observe and study people and their micro worlds ...while having breaks in cafeterias, while driving, shopping, exploring ... such that the word "bored" - she doesn't understand ... she makes scenarios out of scenes ... to enable her to understand better ... she believes thoroughly that understanding leads to sabar ... which is one most difficult attribute to sustain ... but surely sustaining it is jihad ...

 and she writes  on different templates ... her other templates ... one here ... started as a requirement for a forum where anonymous was not allowed ...

 about other templates ... hmmm ... not yet :)

May Allah SWT guide our every step and bless us all ...
