Power generation and transmission is one of those mysterious parts of life to me. I’m sure many of you know much more about it than I do. But one thing I’m sure of. There is no strength nor power except by Allah. Continue reading “Power”
The Coolness of Eyes
Our Lord, grant us from among our wives and offspring comfort to our eyes and make us an example for the righteous.
It’s not a secret
you’re not alone
So when we walk the path, we walk it alone… except, we’re not really alone. As Allah tells us in Surah Al-Hadid
هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ اسْتَوَىٰ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ ۚ يَعْلَمُ مَا يَلِجُ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَمَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا وَمَا يَنزِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ وَمَا يَعْرُجُ فِيهَا ۖ وَهُوَ مَعَكُمْ أَيْنَ مَا كُنتُمْ ۚ وَاللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ
It is He who created the heavens and earth in six days and then established Himself above the Throne. He knows what penetrates into the earth and what emerges from it and what descends from the heaven and what ascends therein; and He is with you wherever you are. And Allah, of what you do, is Seeing.
Nightime, Right Time
A quick follow-up to this morning’s Reminder… Here’s the same view, shot moments apart, by 3 different cameras, at 30, 45, and 60 seconds (all manually counted, and so probably not accurate…).
On the left, the Cosina CX-2; in the middle, the Lomo LC-A; on the right, the Sears 35 R|F (Ricoh 500 G). All on Kosmo Foto Mono, developed in Ilfotec HC 1:31 for 5.5 minutes. (I moved the LC-A slightly during exposure. Ooops. Oh well.) Continue reading “Nightime, Right Time”
the nighttime is the right time.
I walk alone
However Allah guides us to His path, and however many people help us along the way, and however many people we surround ourselves with, copy, model ourselves after, follow, emulate, when it comes down to it, we’re all going to stand naked and alone (and hopefully not too afraid) in front of Allah.
