It's really empowering. It's really sad how Muslim brothers and sisters haven't been united lately (as in countries).

There's a reason behind everything in Islam.
Take care, sis. <3
Sorry I haven't commented lately, just managed to catch up with your great posts. Loving the new blog look.
Keep an eye out for mine as I should have a new post coming as well as I've changed the whole look as I've given it a makeover for 2011 and insha'Allah I intend to keep it that way.
Keep the posts coming,

By the way, I forgot to mention this, but your blog layout looks fresh! I really like it.
@Zara Know I'm really touched! I'm glad I'm able to write such strong, emotional, yet uplifting poems at times.
Really!?! I should have it published? I better start looking for a poetry publisher since I have such amazing sisters and fans.
I'll be writing & waiting,
