Relax & Recreate


Every single one of us is navigating a challenging time. You're all working incredibly hard to adapt.

With the current global situation, frustration can creep in—especially when staying indoors feels limiting.

What’s your routine?
Wake up. Work out, exercise, or meditate. Freshen up. Get dressed. Do laundry. Log in for hours of Work from Home. Maybe step out for a quick walk or stock up on groceries. A cycle we all share.

But what’s missing?

Or rather—how are you diversifying your routine? What do you do to relax? Are you finding creative ways to keep yourself entertained?

Leisure. That’s what often gets overlooked in the daily grind. Overwork, stress, and overwhelm build up when there's no pause. And now, when everything happens from home, making time for yourself is more important than ever.

So—breathe. Truly relax.

Listen to music—not just self-improvement podcasts or health updates. Watch your favorite movies or shows—beyond the news. Read a book or magazine instead of endlessly scrolling through outbreak updates.

No hobby? Find one. Explore your talents. Write. Sketch. Paint. Sing. Cook. Create.

Because now, more than ever, you need moments of joy.



Point is... give yourself a break in a way that will make you feel ALIVE.

Not just in difficult times—self-care and moments of joy are necessary always. Life isn’t just about responsibilities, deadlines, and routines. It’s about balance. It’s about feeling connected to yourself, your passions, and the little things that bring you happiness.

So, take that pause. Dance to your favorite song. Watch the sunset. Call an old friend. Try something new, even if it’s just for fun. Life isn't meant to be just endured—it’s meant to be lived.

Do you feel trapped in your own thoughts?   Like your mind is a never-ending maze, filled with worries, doubts, and fears? What’s stopping you from breaking free? Pause. Breathe. You're overthinking again. That restless feeling, that voice whispering worst-case scenarios—it’s just another trick your mind is playing. But you are not your thoughts. You are the master of your mind, not its prisoner. So take control. MASTER your mental power. Whatever is weighing you down, let it go. Free your mind, free yourself. Let your heart take the lead—it knows the way. When you think with your heart, you find clarity. When you see with your heart, you recognize truth. When you listen with your heart, you understand beyond words. When you feel with your heart, you experience life fully. When you act with your heart, you move with purpose. When you speak with your heart, your words heal. "Think with your heart. See with your heart. Hear with your heart. Feel with your heart. Act with your he...

The Historical Significance of Palestine: From First Temple to Hazrat Musa (A)

Palestine in the Time of Hazrat Musa (AS): A Divine Test and a Cosmic Shift The story of Palestine begins with Hazrat Musa (AS) and Bani Israel. After their escape from Pharaoh's oppression in Egypt, the Israelites wandered in the wilderness for forty years due to their disobedience. According to Islamic tradition and Jewish scripture, Allah had promised them a blessed land—Palestine—if they remained steadfast in faith and obedience. However, when ordered to enter the land, they refused out of fear of its inhabitants, leading to their prolonged wandering in the desert (Al-Ma'idah: 21-26). Only after the passing of that generation did their successors, under the leadership of Prophet Yusha (AS) (Joshua), enter the promised land. One unique aspect often overlooked is how this period of wandering reshaped not only the faith but also the identity of Bani Israel. The delay in entering Palestine was not merely a punishment—it was a divine transition where a new generation, unshackled...

Freedom vs Free Will

Look at the image above. What do you see? At first glance, it’s obvious—two birds flying away from a cage they were once locked in. But I see it in two ways: The First Perspective The birds were trapped in the cage until someone—perhaps their owner—opened the door, setting them free. Now, they can go wherever they wish, carried by the wind. The sky is vast and open, but even it has limits. Birds, like all creatures, have their own range; their flight is not infinite. Even freedom comes with boundaries. The Second Perspective Perhaps the cage was never locked—its door left open all along. The birds had a choice: to stay, to leave, or to return after exploring. The decision was entirely theirs. What’s Common in Both? Freedom and Free Will. The First Perspective: Freedom Misunderstood Society creates cages—rules, expectations, restrictions. When someone is confined for too long, sudden freedom can feel overwhelming. Like the birds carried by the wind, we may mistake absolute freedom as h...
