👀 What You Missed This Week
DAILYREFLECTIONS
This week, we journeyed through the unseen from the humility of the living saint to the life of the Barzakh, from the witnessing angels to the truth reflected in dreams, reminders that every soul is seen, named, and sustained by the One beyond the veil.
Where the Living Truly Are
When a soldier mistook Ibrahim ibn Adham for a slave, the saint revealed true freedom seeing himself only as Allah’s servant and teaching that the graveyard, not the city, is where the truly living dwell.
The World Beneath This One
Beyond the veil of sight lies Al-Barzakh the realm between worlds where every soul awaits its final awakening, proof that death is not an end but the continuation of life in another dimension.
The Unseen Audience Watching You Right Now
Every moment, unseen eyes watch and unseen hearts respond angels recording in light, devils whispering in shadows reminding us that the truest audience is not of this world but beyond it.
The Name You Earn in the Heavens
Our names echo beyond this world for every soul holds a title in the heavens, earned not by status or success, but by sincerity, mercy, and deeds that please the One who never forgets .
The Mirror of the Heart: True Dreams in Islam
In the Prophet’s ﷺ time, true dreams reflected the purity of hearts a woman’s vision of twelve martyrs came true, revealing that when hearts are sincere, the unseen unveils its truths to them.
When Your Soul Leaves Each Night
Every night the soul drifts into the unseen, meeting other souls by Allah’s permission a small death that reminds us each morning that waking is a gift, a divine return to begin again.
WATERMELONWATCH
The UN Palestinian refugees agency Unrwa has warned that there is still not enough aid getting through into Gaza City and elsewhere in the territory.
WHO warned that humanitarian aid into Gaza Strip remains grossly insufficient, with more than 600,000 people facing catastrophic food insecurity and the health-system rebuild estimated to cost at least $7 billion.
Aid trucks rolled in through crossings such as Kerem Shalom Crossing under truce terms, yet deliveries cover only a fraction of the need humanitarian actors call for sustained access.
A cease-fire that began on 10 October has enabled the return of some displaced people and limited aid access, but key access points like the Rafah Crossing remain blocked and hostilities still risk resuming.
Diplomatic tension is rising: U.S. officials and some regional actors are discussing an international force for Gaza governance, while Benjamin Netanyahu reaffirmed plans to demilitarise Gaza, raising concerns over civilian impact and who will govern the enclave.
Amid the crisis, local resilience is emerging: community leaders and small-scale NGOs in Gaza are organising clean-up efforts, school-repair projects and child-friendly spaces, showing that even in dire conditions people are rebuilding hope.
QURANCORNER
Each day, you’ll be introduced to one of the 300 most common Qur’anic words. The Qur’an has about 77,430 words in total, all built on just 2,000 root words. By learning these frequently recurring ones, you’ll recognize 70–80% of the Qur’an’s vocabulary and begin connecting more deeply as you read.
ʾUlū (أُولُو) - Possessors Of / People Ofʾ
Ulū is a word of honor. It points to those who carry something within ulū al-baṣā’ir (people of insight), ulū al-ʿilm (people of knowledge), ulū al-ʿazm (people of resolve). It reminds us that true worth isn’t in what we claim, but in what we cultivate. In the Qur’an, ʾUlū marks those chosen not just for what they know but for how deeply they live it.
