yousrmostafa: بنت المعز القاهرة - Bent Al-Moez from a bird's eye view! #Cairo #Egypt. Because awesome things can happen when you're not home. When you're outside your comfort zone. When you free your mind from the societal stereotypes and standards. You become yoursel
yousrmostafa: #Alexandria #Egypt #Home #Alex "الشكوى لغير الله مذلة"
yousrmostafa: Winter is the believer's season. Long night time for prayers and short daytime for fasting :-) Whenever we shiver from the cold, we shall find warmth in the prostration of our prayer. Please keep me in your prayers my dear brothers and sisters. May Allah
yousrmostafa: God's Grace. #Turkey
yousrmostafa: Blessed are those who live in the mountains, do you not think so? For, they have the chance to be *elevated* whenever the bottom gets crowded! It is indeed time to morally rise whenever transgression prevails in the lands. - في نعيم هم من يسكنون الجبال، ي
yousrmostafa: Light upon Light - نور على نور. Lights in Sultan Ahmet's Zawiyah. Blue Mosque. #sultanahmet #Turkey #Istanbul
yousrmostafa: Rain, earl grey tea, my journal and Vivaldi's four seasons kind of day!
yousrmostafa: They contemplate, and we contemplate their contemplation.
yousrmostafa: Fight or flight? After I put the camera down, she gracefully walked away.. & left me mesmerized. - Photo taken in #Alexandria #Egypt #Nikon
yousrmostafa: We *pose* for photos and they *pause* for photos.
yousrmostafa: The one at the very top looked like a side portrait of a white fang. The one below looks like a joker laugh. & the one at the right bottom looks like a little vintage "white" dress with a chapeau. Uhhh, & probably they're looking down at me thinking "heey
yousrmostafa: "Let me see if I can find some games in this thingie." *I stand there waiting for her* She breaks the silence.. - "Are you done?" - "Done what?" - "You should be taking a photo of me when I'm not looking, another visitor before with a camera and lens lik
yousrmostafa: Remember my little friend? I shared her story earlier on my instagram timeline. Here is another share of her beautiful gaze. Of her beautiful presence, rather! I still remember her cleverness and innocence. She had eloquent articulations & goofy gestures
yousrmostafa: God's Grace.
yousrmostafa: The beautiful words, and the beautiful works. The genuine grace and the graceful gestures. And all else that is beyond human articulation! These traces of the beloved are meant to be enjoyed as much as they are meant to point to Him. Subhanahū wa tāla. س
yousrmostafa: One happy photo from Summer 2013 in Turkey! <:o) May your days be blessed with breeze of love from your beloveds and their prayers! طيب الله أيامكم بنفحة من حب محبيكم و دعوايهم
yousrmostafa: A neural association with July, earl grey tea, Coldplay melodies, and 2 lovers who know each others but have not met yet! It reminds me of a lost french pen pal, who captures the mists in the air of #California, for he may captivate the breeze that swayed
yousrmostafa: "There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes, By the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but #nature more." - George Gordon Byron
yousrmostafa: When everyone is sleeping, wake up to greet her, and she'll unleash to you what she veils for the rest of the day.. That beauty! سبحان الجميل
yousrmostafa: My soul is jealous that my heart found affability somewhere other than where it had its first beat.. Somewhere that isn't home. But isn't home where the beloved is? & you know better, o my soul.. That your beloved is everywhere! - #Toronto #Canada
yousrmostafa: I don't really have a story behind this. But I can just say that God The Most Beautiful is taking care of us even when it comes to the smallest & simplest details that are sent to make us smile. Only lovers exchange these gestures. :-) & I love Him so muc
yousrmostafa: As usual, a capture for the record!I never really got the chance before to stand on a bridge like that. I found it to be an enchanting moment, I now know that if it ever gets crowded on the land down there, they sky is wide open. & when there are too many
yousrmostafa: When she gave me this flower, I started tearing & asked her for a hug. I hugged her so tight that I started crying. Our hearts were so close that she could feel my weeping, & I could hear her whispering prayers. I never felt so sincerely loved by a sister
yousrmostafa: I like my everything to remind me of heritage. Or maybe I make my everything in the form of the heritage because I always have it on my mind.
yousrmostafa: I just finished this little piece for my favourite companion of the prophet. Peace and blessings be upon him. - Sidi Othman Ibn Affan. May Allah make me of a Othmani character. Amen!
yousrmostafa: The unspoken fatigue could sometimes just be expressed in between the lines. & the ones who did not find God are in pain. Verily, this world could only be understood in terms of the next world; the hereafter. May God guide us all. Amen!
yousrmostafa: You could be wanderlust to a total other level. And it is not about transcontinental moves anymore. Your nomadic heart will explode, & sprinkle all the feelings it has been gathering from the different sceneries, creatures & phenomena.. You will wander be
yousrmostafa: #Moroccan tea, a mawlid and a beautiful company. Alhamdulillah!
yousrmostafa: & then there is a parallel world that gives you hope, warmth & shelter. & sometimes your own self.. That could be inside one of the most random pages on the most random shelves. Books are feast for the eyes!
