You got a lot more inside of you,
You got a lot more
You got a lot more inside of you,
You don't show
You got a lot more inside of you,
I am there
You got a lot more inside of you,
You're being unfair.

But there's just something about you,
Something beautiful
There's just something about you,
Something true
Something about you,
Something innocent-
Something naive
Just something about you
You got to belief.

Stand tall my dear
Chin up!
Brace your shoulders
Nothing to fear
Grab that mic,
and sing it out
Sing it out, sing out loud.
They don't matter
Even for a few words
That will just do.

My heart sank upon reading
Al-fatihah to AL-HABIB ( Abdulkadir Bin Ahmed Asseggaf) who passed away in Jeddah Innalillah wa Inna ilaihi Rajioon
Just hearing a scholar and a successor of the salaf that has moved on to the eternal world, a greater world, a better world wraps me with grief.

Dear Habib, when can i join you?

Allahummaghfir lahu warhamhu wa 'aafihi wa'fu anhu wa taqabbal hasanaatih wa tajawwas an sayyiaatih wansurhu fi jannatil a'la ma'a aslafihis sholihin wa jaddihil a'dham shollohu alaihi wa ala aalihi wa sallam, wa yu'iidu alaina min barokaatihi wa asroorihi wa imdaadihi wa nafah aatihi fii daaril fana' wa daaril baqa' wa yajma'naa ma'ahu fii zumrotis su'aada'. Ameen.

...Alhamdulillah
