Wow, it's been a long two weeks. I'm sure many people would agree. Midterms have definitely taken their toll on most people. I got through two of mine, one more and a project left and then I'll be done insha Allah =) So, anyway, I wanted to share with you guys a Hadith I really liked:

"God Almighty said: "My servant draws near to Me with nothing more loved by Me than the acts of worship that I have enjoined upon him. My servant continues to try to draw near to Me with more devotion, until I love him. When I love him, I will be his hearing with which he hears, his sight by which he sees, his hand with which he strikes, his feet on which he walks. When he asks Me for something, I will respond and when he takes refuge in Me, I will grant it to him. I do not hesitate in doing anything I intend to do as much as I hesitate in seizing the soul of My faithful servant; he hates death and I hate hurting him. But death is a must for him"." (narrated by Bukhari)

I hope you like it just as much as I do!

By the way, they were doing free Henna at Stamp today from 12-2 pm in the Baltimore Room I think. Sorry if you missed it! I just got a crescent and stars on my right hand, but it all scratched off on its own less than an hour later. Man us Desis, we're better with Henna because we usually get a good red color that lasts you a while! =)

Ma'Assalama,
Hena
