I haven’t been feeling like posting much lately.
InshaAllah everyone had a great Eid and om gosh I think this new Firefox (version 2) that husband installed has some built-in spell check..
My grandmother passed away two days after Eid. She was 81 years old mashaAllah and died peacefully in her sleep. She managed to fast the whole of Ramadan and Allah was merciful enough to let her see one more Eid before taking her away in the manner she always wished. It’s been a sad few days for us. I want to write more about her, how she lived her life and how loved she was (and still is) but I just don’t know how to start and if my words will ever do justice to the pious woman she was.
Please remember her in your duas tonight.

You and your family are in my thoughts.
Assalamu Alaikum Tasmiya. May Allah have mercy on her soul, widen her grave, and give patience to you and your family. Alhamdulillah that her death was a natural and peaceful one and that she had a long life and was able to get the rewards of Ramadan and the joy of being with family on Eid before her death. May God give us all such a happy ending to our lives. But it is always hard to lose someone so dear as a grandmother. Everytime i get reminded of my grandmother, Allah have mercy on her, who passed away a few weeks ago all the emotions well up again inside me – that i will never get to see her again or hear her voice again. (Oh no.. getting emotional again..) but i think it would help you to write about her. Take care and take it easy.
Salaam Sister,
May Allah (swt) grant her a place in paradise.
My thoughts and Prayers are with you at this difficult time, I know all to well what you must be going through, alas we take comfort in the good times and now appreciate how important one person was to us.
take care

Salamaat Tasmiya,
awww huggzz sis; Inna Lillahi Wainna Ilayhi Rajioon. I am really sorry to hear this.
May Allah have Mercy on her soul; may He elevate her to great heights, and shelter her under His throne (amin).
May Allah bless your beloved grandmother with peace and grace, and place her among the first ranks of His beloveds.
And may Allah bless you and give you comfort in this time of mourning. She lived an examplary life, and died at a good old age, surrounded by love. Allah is the Most Merciful.
Ya Haqq!
Inna lillahi wa inna alayhi raji’oon. May Allah have mercy on her and enter her into the best place in paradise.
My grandmother passed away upon disbelief this past summer and I still haven’t been able to write about it. May Allah make it easy for you and your family.
Lots of hugs sis. :* :* May Allah bless her with a bright and restful grave and a high place in Jannah. I always feel sad when i hear about grandmas passing. My own died when i was 3. I have few memories of her which i cherish with all my heart; the warmth of her loving voice while she showed me my first crescent moon in the night is something i won’t forget all my life. May Allah ease your sorrow. Mashallah that she died with peace and dignity. May Allah have mercy on all our grandmas’ souls.
