Life is Yummy Good

V(e)ntage of an aspiring woman and wife. The mother in me speaks on Eesa's blog. The activist, feminist and student in me speaks at Unshackled. This is the blog where I put all the different facets of my life together; to realize and appreciate God, Marriage, Relationships, Love and Life.

New Orleans

SubhanAllah...
the plight of humanity...

Looking at the videos and images on CNN... im speechless!


Women being raped, rampant looting, no food, no clothes, no shelter.. deprived of basic human needs!

I wonder if those people in the dome can atleast try and feel what state they've caused afghanistan and iraq to be in! Try being a palestinian for a moment... Imagine knowing your mother is being raped, your father is dead, well for that matter so might be your brother.. you have no food or shelter... its all been bombed! My friend Nnwal (a palestinian), says its as tho there's no reason so surive. 'we had no hope of survival'. Today she lives in Kitchener Ontario with her seven children on mattresses thinner than the duvet (comforter) i use at night!

but unlike many, i dont call New Orleans a revenge. Regardless of what they have doen to toher nation, humanity is hurting. and for all those canadians who're coming onto tv and saying, its what they deserved and that they should bring in the military and what not like they do in other countries... all i gotta say is... no one deserves this. How can we live peacefully and as proper muslims, until we care for His Creation? I hate it when i see the complete maulvi style muslims praying 5 times a day yet cursing humanity the moment they say their salams. our prayers 5 times a day are for Allah and for selfish reasons ... how about bending down and caring for His Creation as well? how about trying to walk a mile in someone else's shoes? How about trying to feel the pain of those in anguish? How can your heart still be cold?


I dedicate this post to every single human suffering out there! Regardless of race, color or religion!

*the agony and anguish it takes for a mother to deliver one child.. compare that with the flick of a switch killing millions! *
