2 rainbows

Yesterday was a special day. I saw an eclipse for the first time in my life. I saw it at the end of the show, a small semicircle shadow left on  the sun, like a biscuit bitten at the edge. But before that, the most wonderful rainbow arched across Kuching town, the whole bow, bringing glorious colours to the otherwise cloudy sky, since it has been raining everyday.  I love rainbows, I don't know why, just love them. Then, as I was turning into the hospital to pick up Aishah, a smaller rainbow formed under the first rainbow, now fading.  Really!!. Subhanallah Walhamdulilah. Unfortunately, all the highlights of the day got dampened by Aishah falling sick and was full of spots when she came out from work.  Oh Well...La haulawalakuwata illa billah.

Thank you for your kind reviews.  Thank you for reading. Thank you for liking what I write. I write not to inspire but to brighten and enlighten your day. With a sprinkle of dakwah. Sometimes I can write happy articles but sometimes my miseries does leak out unavoidably.  We all know that life can be hard, though the lucky ones does have a smoother sail. All this is our takdir, therefore, we have to 'redha' because if we do not, we do not get Allah's help. Allah gives us our trials and troubles, but Allah gives guidance to those who has iman.  And we have to believe in Qada' and Qadar . We the servants of Allah could only do our best with the help from our sabar and our solat. And non-stop doa.

Arwah mummy would doa after she takes her wudu', after she hears the azan as additional to the usual ones after her solat. It really works for her, for she always get what she wishes for.  The other mustajab times are when it rains, when the cock crows or during the wee mornings. Just keep the doas going come rain or shine, smiles or tears.   If we think of Allah during our good times, Allah will think of us during our bad times.

We do not always get what we pray for. But if we take the trouble to notice, there are many things that Allah has given us other than what we want. For all things big or small, we should be grateful.  How can we be grateful for the small things when we are not grateful for the big things.Or are we grateful at all?

2 rainbows! I would have been happy with 1.  MasyaAllah 2x.
