in General, London, Neighbours
Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,
yesterday morning I had to go out. I was a bit scared to be honest. Going out on my own with the kids after all that! I had to, anyway, hubby not around so no chance to have his help, mashaAllah.
So the kids and I got ready and off we went mashaAllah. I was wondering about the neighborhood, how it was going to ‘look like’ and ya Allah! It shocked me! SubhanaAllah! This is what I saw as soon as I stepped outside of my building! The sky was cloudy, 2 cars… well what was left of the 2 cars.. were ‘parked’ too…. I was shocked! I had my eyes full of tears! 2 police officers standing at each side of the building, obviously it’s a limited area now. My thoughts went to those Muslims who live this every day, see this every day and every where in their countries.. subhanaAllah! May Allah help them, really!

Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,
I haven’t been checking the news on line for a while, not even when logging into my yahoo email. It was yesterday that I understood what was going on, when my husband told me that all the shop down our road were forced to close at 7pm by the police… my face: ???
Something was going on, some violence spread all over the city of London, I checked on line and finally understood. In short: ‘angry youth’ breaking ‘everything’, ya Allah! May Allah guide them for real!! And we are not just talking about throwing stones at the police (which is stupid anyway!) but setting shops, houses and cars on fire! I mean, look at this photos:

Last night I had a couple of sweet sisters who sent me a text, barakaAllahu fikunna! Making sure I was staying at home and that my family and I were fine, alhamdulillah! ‘Isha and Taraweeh prayer were cancelled as the riots were just under the masjid by maghrib time! Infact, it took some time for the brothers to get back home after the prayer, the police was blocking everything. I just hope all our brothers and sisters in London are fine and safe inshaAllah! And won’t get involved in this STUPID acts, especially ‘our youth’!!!
