Image
The other day, as I stood staring at an empty pantry, my mind drifting towards all the things I thought I needed, I found myself mumbling, "How am I supposed to get through this week?" Oddly enough, a few moments later, a neighbor knocked on my door with extra groceries she didn't want to go to waste. That got me thinking: maybe divine provision isn't always a grand miracle—maybe it's tucked in the mundane, hidden in plain sight. Today's journey is less about lofty theology and more about the uncanny, almost humorous ways faith and provision twist through daily life.

The Wisdom of Existence: Reflections on Creation and Purpose

As I walked through a serene garden, I found my mind wandering into deep reflections on life's purpose and the wisdom behind creation. The teachings in the Quran resonate profoundly within me, especially the verses that remind us of our creation in 'the best of stature' yet our potential to fall 'to the lowest of the low.' This juxtaposition invites us to ponder: what does it truly mean to exist?
