My Amazing Mother

ALHAMDULILLAH

I am blessed by Allah with a mother who is very

humble
helpful
considerate
loving
active
healthy

My mother is a good Muslimah who tries to practise her Deen the best she knows and can.

I always feel bad that I don't keep in touch with her that much, nor do I take care of her. Whenever she's not well, it is always the other siblings who help her. I do not grab the opportunites to do good to my mother and to serve her. When we needed help, especially around the time I had Umar, it was Mak who was around, trying her best to help us in many ways.. like babysitting Amira, doing the dishes and laundry, cleaning up the messes, cooking, buying beddings and clothes, etc etc. She's old - in her 70s - and yet she does more than us the supposedly stronger and younger lot. MashaAllah. I just wish that she had been feeling at home at our house. I really want my mother to be comfortable around us.. to enjoy our food and our company. I miss hanging out with her.

Thank you Mak for the eternal love despite my lack of reciprocity.
Thank you Allah for my mother.. please grant her your boundless blessings in this world and the hereafter.. Amin!
Oh Allah, forgive me for my weaknesses, and help me do more for my beloved mother.. Amin!

I LOVE YOU, MAK!
WITH WARMEST HUGS AND KISSES!
