well they finally became …

THIS

 a scarf for the four year old in my life, and she’s mighty pleased with it masha’allah…the only problem is that all the other kids want one now!!and I’m not sure if my intrest or patience can stand it…

On the deen front, masha’allah I’ve had three tajweed lessons since the last time I blogged and I have a new passion in life, I am enjoying myself more than I thought I would. It’s hard work and there’s alot to remember (which isn’t easy for someone who is well known for her forgetfulness) but.. It’s made me look at my mushaf in a completely new way, and It’s made me realise the importance of studying the content of al-Qur’an, and of beautifying it in the way we recite. My goal was to beging Tajweed classes after we had made hijrah, but  I realised that if I started before I went I would be more motivated to find a teacher and continue once I get there. and where is the there in question?..It’s Algeria, and our departure date bi’idhnillah is sometime in July. So I’m working really hard to raise my game and get my eeman good and healthy before I go insha’allah. I know that between now and the summer Shaitaan will be working really hard to make me stray from my goal, but I’m more ready for him than I was last time round!!
