In the name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful...

Quote of the day;  people cry not because they're weak, but because they've been strong for too long

Word of te day; There is no harm in patience, and no profit in lamentation. Death is easier to bear (than) that which precedes it, and more severe than that which comes after it. Remember the death of the Apostle of God, and your sorrow will be lessened.
Abubakar siddiq RTA

Hadith of the day; Narrated Ibn 'Umar, Allah's Messenger (pbuh) said, "Amongst the trees, there is a tree, the leaves of which do not fall and is like a Muslim. Tell me the name of that tree." Everybody started thinking about the trees of the desert areas. And I thought of the date-palm tree but felt shy to answer the others then asked, "What is that tree, O Allah's Messenger (pbuh) ?" He replied, "It is the date-palm tree."

AISHA'S POV

"Alhamdulillah, it's finally weekend i can now go and hear the reason for Abuu Abdallah's call" i said to my Rashida. "Who knows it might be your prince charming calling afterall everything is possible since Aliyu is the MAGACO chairman" she said with a grin "You know what Rash? It's official you're insane" i said to her rubbing my vaseline at the same time "but you still love me and can't do without me" she said this time with a smirk, oh my Allah what will i do with this girl, she's being too talkative for my liking she and Aamina (our other friend/coursemate who lives off camp) are the best pairs, those two can represent not just ABU but Nigeria as a whole or even Africa in talking/trouble looking competition "You know what Rash? I hate you" "Says the one who can't do without me, i love you too" i know I'll never defeat her so i jejely pick up my purse, clad in a loose fitting pink material gown, a floor length size purple hijab, gloves, socks and my 3steps nikab i'm set to go see Abuu Abdallah "madam you know we're sleeping over at Aamina's place, should i wait for you or you will come later on?" "thanks my strawberry kidney, just go on, I'll come when I'm done with things here" i replied giving her a side hug and saying "Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatulLahi wa barakatuH" to all the living souls in the room, the meeting point is back of Ribadu/Alex Masjid so i went there straight, i was so surprised to see Abuu Abdallah, Imam mustapha and Imam Inuwa there, "i thought it's only yaa wakeel" i thought to myself "but wait, what if i committed something grave or better still i offended them, yaa Salam" my eyes widened at my 2nd thought, in my usual soft, slow, sweet, cool and calm voice i said "Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatulLahi wa barakatuH" to them and they answered in unison "have a seat sister Aaisha" Abuu Abdallah said showing me the darduma opposite them with hs right hand, i said my "Bismillah"as usual and sat down, then we all said the pleasantries before wakeel proceeded with the reason for the meeting "AlhamdulilLah  sister Aaisha, the actual reason for fixing up this unusual meeting with you is because of imam Mustapha here (he said pointing at him who is sitted by his Right handside in a dark Grey material and black cap) met me in my office to discuss about you, he wants you Aaisha to Inshaa Allah be his zawjah, so here we are, and we need your go ahead to go seek your parents' permission on behalf of him" "ya hayyu ya qayyum" was all i could utter but to my heart ofcourse... So all this while I've been secretly admiring Mustapha Ibrahim, the handsome shy fulani guy, the guy with the best voice,  his qiraa'ah just Mashaa Allah, he is imitating sheikh Shuraim but believe me if i say his is nicer than the actual owner's own... His smile...... "Astagfirullah Aaisha are you okay" i thought, reprimanding my self "Sister Aaisha, are you alright?" Imam Inuwa's question brought me back to life then suddenly I'm scared, scared of him knowing my past, the past i dread to recall at anytime, Baami, Maami Antymi and I, "Yaa waduud, come to my rescue, make everything easy" I muttered. "Sister Aaisha, we're sorry for bothering you please" Abuu Abdallah said bringing me back to reality, with a shaky voice and teary eyes i said "yaa Wakeel, i'm sorry i trailed off,  yaa imam, you don't know anything about me yet neither do i know about you, so i think you suspend seeking my parents permission first, for now" trying hard not break down (i usually do that when ever i recall or I'm being reminded of my past)" for the first time he spoke in his gentle, cool, manly voice to me "Aaisha don't worry, we have to talk ofcourse before seeing your parent, right Aliyu?" Abuu Abdallah nodded then add whilst standing standing "Inuwa i think we give them space to discuss some petty issues now, so Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatulLahi wa barakatuH, (obviously talking to me) jazakillahu khairah sister, thanks for sparing out your time for us" "Wa antum, Fajazakumullahu khairah, you are most welcome, wa alaikumussalam wa rahmatulLahi wa barakatuH" i replied, the trio shook hands then Abuu Abdallah and Imam Inuwa left after bidding me another good bye... He cleared his throat then uttered some prayers thereafter he said "so sister Aaisha, can i know more about you?" yes that's it, the question i always dread to hear, no one know of that side of the story not even my 3 girlfriends, but i love this guy, and I've performed several salaatul istikhaara about his issue even before now and I've always felt positive about us, i know from all the feeling of positivity i have for him that he is Inshaa Allah khayr, but why can't we just start up the relationship without throw backs? Must we swim in the ocean of our past or should i say my past? Yaa Rahman come to my rescue.......
