Hamidah Abbas Letters (Hall)

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful Umrah: And the Call of ALLAH — We Obeyed In life, the most important thing to me is stability. What Umrah and Hajj does is that it is a means of worship of ALLAH which makes you sacrifice your stability and comfort. It looks like delayed flight. Applying for Visa. Booking hotel. It also looks like the cleaners of the Haram shouting “gumi gumi” on top of your head. Dey say make you excuse them say dem wan clean up. Speaking about the cleaning system of the Haramain, their cleaning efficiency is extremely commendable, ALLALHu Akbarrr. From the Masjid Nabawi to the Masjid l Haram. And I've never seen their exact system anywhere else on earth. For example, the people walking with plastic bins between rows at all times. In their teal uniform and white Hijab at the Masjid l Haram. And inside the Masjid Nabawi you'll find them in brown coat. All of their uniforms complete with Niqab among ...

  بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful Saudi Arabia economic diversification from an Islamic perspective Distinguished Worshippers of ALLAH, I’m Hamidah Abbas , the author of Polygamy Ijmaʿa — click here to read my Polygamy story . May Almighty ALLAH honour you. So… to my Umrah story . AlhamduliLLAH , I have just returned from Umrah — AlhamduliLLAH . And for the first time in my life, I paid close attention to Saudi Arabia’s economic diversification game —and it was a lot. However, before we get into the economy of Saudi Arabia, I’d like to paint a picture: I am a niqab-wearing Muslim woman from Ìbàdàn, Nigeria . And,  This image is the inside of the Kaaba, that is, if they open the Kaaba 🕋, this is what you'll see.  Normally, people aren't allowed here. When you go for Hajj and Umrah, you'll enter into a mosque to do Tawaf, the mosque you enter is called Masjid-l-Haram. And inside the Masjid-...

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ  In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful When it's all said and done, I define people as a puddle of evil that's capable of good Make no mistakes, in the grand scheme of things: There are good people who do bad things. Do not let the evil/bad — which they're sorry about — define them. Forgive them and do not hold them in permanent contempt in your mind, please. However, as for those who do evil and still insist on it while refusing to repent. Hold them in serious contempt and refuse to let go of the contempt if they don't repent. Verily, all praises belong to ALLAH who made the paradise for the repenting sinner and the hell-fire for the insistent  sinner. Definitely, the angels questioned why HE would create that which would cause mischief and shed blood. For indeed, HE is The Most High.  The One who knows that which we don't. Sometimes, people are something evil —  Even the good among people are also capable ...

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ  In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful Indeed, writing is a miracle. For aeons, I searched far and wide   I searched deeply for that which I've been called for. “What could it possibly be?”, I asked perplexed. Indeed, how far from imperfections is ALLAH? It turns out it's a truth I've always known — writer. **** Writer. **** That is what I am. That is who I am. I am a writer. It is so simple. So close. So clear. Yet, I couldn't see what I am and have always been. I've never tried to write. I've just always been writing. So it's feels like nothing to me. I had no idea — I didn't realise that there were people who were looking for how to write. Yet instead of calling me a writer and making a living out of writing. I was doing all these “” things. Indeed, writing is great. Verily, it took me so long to see what I've always been. It didn't come to me. Certainly, it didn't come t...

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ  In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful Indeed Death is a Blessing So all praises belong to ALLAH for the blessings of death. I would have gone insane if this life is our home. AlhamduliLLAH that it's only an examination centre. Therefore, it's certainly going to be rough. So all praises belong to ALLAH who has blessed us with a limited test of a few decades in exchange for eternal punishment for those who insist on their errors And an eternal bliss for those who repent from their errors. And may peace be upon every human who's worthy of peace. The sick. The insane. Those on the battle field. The people of repentance. May peace be upon all of them! For verily, there's purpose in all tests and nothing is random. Sincerely, Hamidah Abbas | Author,  Polygamy Ijma'a »  about.me/hamidahabbas
