I love sleeping. You don’t spend any money and you don’t miss anyone.
Faatimah (upon whom be peace) came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and asked him for a servant.
He said, “Shall I not tell you of something that is better for you than that? When you go to sleep, say ‘Subhaan Allaah’ thirty-three times, ‘Al-hamdu Lillah’ thirty-three times, and ‘Allaahu akbar’ thirty four times.”
(Reported by al-Bukhaari, 4943).
ما دمت تتنفس تستطيع أنت تغير
As long as you are still breathing, you can change.
reminder: you deserve to eat. you deserve to sleep. you don’t have to prove you deserve to take care of yourself.
don’t feel guilty for not being able to handle everything, for needing a break. you need to look after yourself, too. self care is not selfish.
