A letter to the better half

Dear Sofia Ansar,

It was a great 12 months that we spent together. We had many things together. We shared everything between the two of us. I have seen your smiling face and crying face. I have seen your positive and negative sides. There were times when I made you angry and there were times when I made you happy. Every single moment was a treasure that I cherish till this date. We started our journey as two strangers who were willing to exchange their hearts for unknown price. And we embarked into that journey without knowing what awaiting us along the ride. But, we trusted each other and with that trust, we set our foot together and started painting our own canvas. 

Alhamdulillah, though we have some hiccups along the roller-coaster of our marriage, we managed it well. Alhamdulillah, although we were not perfect, but we covered the imperfect between us. We are like a fine clothe to each other; me covering you and you covering me. I am glad to be with you, in your rise and in your downfall; in your ups and down; and in every moment of your precious life.

Through you, I learned to be a Man. I learned what it takes to be a responsible person. I learned to be a selfless person in cruising our marriage to where is it sailing now. And I could not thank anyone more than to you for always be there for me, in every side of me, in every moment of my life with you.

Let us take a moment and express our gratitude to Allah, our Match Maker. If not because of His Mercy and Guidance, we will not stumble to each other in our paths. If not because of His Will, we could not meet and walk through this journey and reach our destination today. Today, we have reached to our first checkpoint, before we continue to walk till we reach our ultimate checkpoint, Al-Jannah. Let us stop for a while and look to the footsteps that we created at our back. Let us ponder upon our actions and contemplate over what it needs to be done to make our footsteps better.

I love you Sofia Ansar, and I will always love you. You are an amazing woman that came into my life and managed to change me what others can’t. You are a gift specially created by Allah even before we came into this world. You names and mine have been crafted in the Heaven long before we born. And I know that Allah love me so much that He placed your heart next to mine and your fingers entangled in mine. Thank you for this amazing year! Thank you for being a wonderful partner in my life! Thank you for being a beautiful soul in my world! I hope our marriage will continue sailing till the end of everything!

They asked me
‘what treasure do I possess’
‘I got the whole world’
I told them
coz’ I have your heart
next to mine;
and your smile
that is
brighter than the sun.

You II

Indeed
I had been
looking for you;
knocking each
and every doors
along the passageway;
querying here and there;
till my eyes finally
estopped by my own gaze
on an enchanting red Rose;
in our first sitting.

Indeed
the rewards 
of every bit of tussles
stand await,
faithfully
at the end of
the murky crawl-way.

And here we are
threading in this
beautiful alleyway
with each other hands
holding together;
engrossed in our
own excursions;
painting our canvas
with the colours
of our love story.

Now that I have
found you,
now that
the wonderer
has a destination
to reside;
I whispered to Him
in my most
beautiful tone,
'Thank You my Lord'
for letting her
crossing my path
and let her be
the reward of
my waiting.

p.s.: the ending of You.

Relish


The pleasures that
my eyes relish
in every moment
of our meeting
is simply abstruse.

To know that
you will invariably be there
with your candied beam,
smiling radiantly
as I walk into our home
at every sundown,
turn my gloomy morning
into a bright windy evening.

Like a wilted flower
in the heat of wild summer,
blossoming in the
wake of rainfall;
your singsong greetings,
bequeath warmth to
my cold soul;
splashing sunray to
my dusky dawn.

and dear you,
let those
glittering smile of yours
keep painting
my monotonous world
with colors of rainbow.

End Note:
'Kehte hain khuda ne is jahan mein sabhi ke liye
Kisi na kisi ko hai banaya har kisi ke liye
Tera milna hai us rab ka ishara maano
Mujhko banaya tere jaise hi kisi ke liye'

'They say God has made a special someone
for everybody in this universe,
meeting you was a sign sent from God,
Maybe I am made for somebody like you'

Zealous

Love is,
to wake up
every morning
and the first façade
my eyes will fall onto,
is yours.

And the very first
smile of yours
emblazoned 
in the wake
of morning sunshine
kindling my soul
to start the day anew.

Days are passing briskly.
Leaving our pages
scribbled with 
thousands of memories;
ebbed and flowed,
and for us to flip through
embracing the reminiscence
in years to come.

As we walk
through the aisle
and my fingers
tied in between yours,
crafting many more vestiges,
fashioning voluminous
new days ahead,
using our own
blend and brew
and that’s how
our love grows
zealous and deeper.


fingers are dancing through the keys
accompanied by the melody of


p.s.: two hundreds days, Alhamdulillah.

Solemn Covenant

Nikah is a union;
of two antithetic souls,
and two variant minds,
in the pursuit
of building
a hearty Home.

At times,
storm will frighten
with its barbarous sounds
and skies will tear up
with its downpour;
but the two souls
will keep knotting
as the two hearts
are intertwining
creating a single root
robust as the mountain.

The Home will
perpetually standing;
amidst the
ferocious storm,
and the two lovebirds
will keep tweeting
praising the Lord
of everything;
because the union
they are embarking,
is a sacred bond
epitomized as
the 'Solemn Covenant'

 [وَأَخَذْنَ مِنْكُمْ مِيثَاقًا غَلِيظًا]
'they have taken a solemn Covenant from you'
Sura An-Nisa', Ayah 21


No love between two souls is greater than what is between the spouses.
Ibn Kathīr (rahimahullaah)

Blended

the journey is galloping
towards a definite harbor
while our legs
keep engraving
on the taken passages
creating our memories
along the pathway
for us to cherish
in our old days
when my wrinkled hand
stroking your grey hairs
and together we smile
reminiscing
our laughs, tears and dramas,
blended in our
shared moments.

inside our Home
we decorate with
all the sketches,
we paint with
colours of rainbows
and we sprinkle
the fragrance of love
into the atmosphere
building our version
of Heaven
for us to dwell in
live in harmony.

Dear you,
let us keep threading
on this odyssey
for more
hundreds of days to come
for more
memories to be crafted
for more
dramas to be screen played
for more
laughs and smiles to be exploded
and tears to be wiped away.

Bee Gees - How Deep Is Your Love

The Odyssey

 It is a God’s nature
To lay a finale for everything
As there is a destination to respite
After a lengthened voyage
Ensuing a gloomy winter season
Flowers appear decorating the atmosphere
Brings colour to the world
And fragrance to the air

These two legs
Have travelled far
Looking and hunting
Wondering here and there
Armed with a leap of faith
Beneath his rib cage
He keeps walking
Hoping the Almighty
To end the quest
And the elongated journey
Will be put to rest

Indeed,
God is all-Hearing
When He sets a Home
For him to rest
With a beautiful companion
To be a good company
For him to continue the Odyssey
As the journey has a new course
With a new purpose
Towards the path of Lord
Towards the path of Garden
Towards the eternity of love and pleasure.

The Odyssey - "A long series of wanderings or adventures, especially when filled with notable experiences, hardships"
..
P.S. Alhamdulillah, Thank you Allah. For guiding us to meet and greet. Thank you Allah, for everything about her, that completing everything about me. May we live a life full of blessings, Hamesha.
