Sabr [Patience]. A word I've been living in for as far back as I can remember. I put my trust in Allah to show me the right path. To show me and guide me to her if she truly is my intended pair. I believe everything happens for a reason by the will of Allah and not accidentally. The moment I gazed at her, she captivated me with only a glance and I couldn't find myself lowering my gaze. Astaghfirullah [ I seek forgiveness from Allah] I know, but I couldn't as my eyes locked with her light brown orbs that caged me as I found myself drowning in them happily but my blissful moment was cut off when she lowered her gaze. She became the girl I mentioned in my Salah and when Allah gave me the green light, I asked her hand in marriage. She is clueless of me but was written for me by the writer of all writers whom has ordered us to be. I couldn't wait to perform marriage with her as it is sunnah. I couldn't wait to increase my Iman with her, to love and to make her happy for the rest of our lives as possibly as I can with the willingness of Allah. With just a mere thought of her lightens my mood making it impossible to get her out of my mind. I can't wait to start our graceful journey HABIBTI.
