Unveiling stories: A journey into Wisdom and Connection

Assalam Aleikum Beautiful Souls!

Welcome to my corner of the internet! I'm umm_zafeera, a passionate storyteller, Islamic content creator, and a code weaver by profession. In the vast realm of the digital landscape, I am embarking on a new adventure – a blog where pixels meet prose and where stories unfold to teach, resonate and connect.


The Storyteller Behind the Code

By day, I delve into the intricacies of network and software engineering, crafting solutions in the digital realm. By night, I transform into "umm_zafeera," a storyteller weaving tales that carry lessons, morals, and the essence of shared experiences. It's a duality that adds layers to my journey, allowing me to blend the structured logic of code with the boundless creativity of narratives.


A Tapestry of Tales

In this space, I aim to share stories that transcend time and cultures, rooted in the teachings of Islam. Each narrative carries a lesson, a nugget of wisdom that we can ponder upon in our own lives. But this blog is not just about my stories – it's about yours too. I invite you to be part of this narrative tapestry. Share your stories, your experiences, and let's create a community bound by the threads of shared wisdom.


Why Stories Matter

Stories have the power to inspire, educate, and connect us. They serve as mirrors reflecting our own journeys and windows into the worlds of others. Through this blog, I hope to create a space where we can learn, grow, and find common ground. So, whether you're here for the tech insights, the tales of wisdom, or simply to be part of a community that values storytelling, I'm thrilled to have you on board. Let's embark on this journey together – a journey of words, wisdom, and the wonderful tapestry of stories.


Stay tuned for the next chapter!

HISTORY WILL NOT FORGET GENERATIONS WILL NOT FORGIVE

Sitting on her living room sofa, Leah was engrossed in watching television. Having recently turned 17, she was known for her curiosity and interest in both local and global politics. Unlike many of her peers, Leah always made sure to confirm and verify any information she received before forming her own opinions. She was a thoughtful and sensitive young woman, hailing from a Jewish family. Leah's ancestors had immigrated to the US following the end of the second World War. Her mother, Elijah, was a dedicated social worker with a strong passion for religious matters. Elijah firmly believed in the imminent arrival of the Messiah, who would grant the Jewish people their own homeland, and they would subsequently govern the world under his leadership.  Leah's father, Viktor, had been serving in the Israeli Defense Forces for the past five years. As Elijah busied herself with daily chores in her open-concept kitchen and lounge, she heard Leah's cries of alarm. "Mom, mom, lo...

THE SAILOR WAS CAUGHT OFF GUARD

A sailor was stranded on an island. Where he was the only survivor of a shipwreck! He made a hut for his shelter. Day and night, he was praying and waiting for someone to rescue him but nobody came. He stored food in the hut for his survival. One day, the hut got burnt to ashes and nothing was left of it. He was so angry! He said, "Allah, why have you done this to me?" The following morning rescuers came. He asked, "how did you know that I was here?" They replied, "we saw a smoke signal." Lesson: E ven in our darkest moments, when it seems like everything is lost, Allah’s wisdom operate in ways we cannot imagine. What we perceive as a misfortune can be a hidden blessing, guiding us to something greater than what we can envision. Qur'an Reference: “...But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not.” (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:216)

THE BOY WHO USED TO DELAY HIS PRAYERS

He remembered his grandmother's warning about praying on time: "My son, you shouldn't leave prayer to this late time." His grandmother's age was 70 but whenever she heard the Adhan, she got up like an arrow and performed Salah/Namaz/prayer. He, however could never win over his ego to get up and pray. Whatever he did, his Salah was always the last to be offered and he prayed it quickly to get it in on time. Thinking of this, he got up and realized that there were only 15 minutes left before Salat-ul Isha.  He quickly made Wudhu and performed Salat-ul Maghrib. While making Tasbih, he again remembered his grandmother and was embarrassed by how he had prayed. His grandmother prayed with such tranquility and peace . He began making Dua and went down to make Sajdah and stayed like that for a while. He had been at school all day and was tired, so tired. He awoke abruptly to the sound of noise and shouting. He was sweating profusely. He looked around. It was very crowde...
