At exactly 12:25pm this man called me and invited me to a meeting by 6:00pm today. As we are communicating, a code showed up on my scream. Just 5 digit numbers.
Do not pick his call either on phone or Whatsapp call. ( +2348106224144 )
For more than 10 years, I prayed for one thing: a good wife. There were times I would sit alone and wonder, “Ya Allah, why is it so difficult to find a good wife?” Sometimes, I cried. Sometimes, the waiting became heavy. But I never stopped praying. There are two Qur’ānic verses that have always been very close to my heart. I used to repeat them constantly, especially during Tahajjud, asking Allah to grant me what was best for me. One of them is from Qur’an 25:74: «“Our Lord, grant us from our spouses and offspring comfort to our eyes and make us an example for the righteous.”» And the other is from Qur’an 2:201: «“Our Lord, give us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and protect us from the punishment of the Fire.”» Wallāhi, I love these two verses so much.

I write to that one beautiful soul out there on this very day. I write to you in terms of pain and in times of comfort. I write to that pain you feel, but can't be said to anyone. I write to that feeling that is left unexpressed. I write to that day you will also be praised for your hard work and dedication. I write to you, not to stop being that one true person to yourself. I write to that morning dew, that lands softly on your skin, making you ponder that the world can still be a better place for us. I write to the days you won't exist anymore. The days you would only be remembered for the good you have done. I write about that smile you put on your face during the time of quandary. I write to that day you're left alone but with certainty, you come up with something intriguing. I write to you once again, my dear friend. You should reflect on how far you have gone in life and appreciate every step you have taken. For a day would come again, I would write to yo...
