i’ve been waiting to get my hands on this book since forever and now that i’ve finally read it, i’m at peace. sure, i cried like a big baby throughout the book but i do not regret reading it and the book definitely is worth the wait. the storyline was tragically beautiful, the poems were heartbreakingly entrancing, the characters were loveable with great chemistry and overall, the author has done such a wonderful job portraying islam in such a positive and beautiful manner and i appreciate that so much. i definitely recommend people reading this, it’s so worth it. also make sure to keep tissues with you if you do read it XD

“I've always believed dreams were the mind's way of compensating for things absent in our lives. […] reality doesn't compare to the imagination.”
This was such a lovely collection of writings… 💜
“In this short life that only lasts an hour
can't you stay here a little longer?
[…] Please linger near the door uncomfortably
instead of leaving without a goodbye.
Please forget your coat or wallet
and come back later for it
in the night.”
“I fear that the world might end before we meet again
or share a cup of coffee in this cold and busy city,
or before I get to utter the words
of how much your company has meant to me.”
“I left the window open all night
but even the wind
couldn't fill your absence.”
“It's a small hope to tuck beneath my arm
that I carry with me.
But it's a hope
and that's something.”
"The next life will be kinder to you," I say.
"Over there, they'll know what I know - have always known. That you were too good for this world and all that was in it.”
“I didn't think all the world's oceans
could fill the emptiness in your heart.
- I hope one day
you learn to have faith in God again.”

Une très douce collection de nouvelles et de poèmes sur le désir, l’amour et le deuil. Malgré la nouvelle succincte d’Isra et Khalid, je n’ai pu m’empêcher de m’émouvoir à la lecture de leur affection mutuelle et leur amour éternel.
Mes citations préférés :
Coming Home
« After the sky has grown tired
and the merchants
have closed down their busy stalls,
the birds in me
shall return
once more
to the trees of you. »
« If there was no kindness in your old home, we will fill it in ours, and we will give it walls, and we will furnish it with soft, wooden interior, from the inside out, and we will lock our doors to keep the anger away. To ward off the memories of your father’s rowdy footsteps and your mother’s piercing screams.
Someday,
we will raise a family in a place you
could not mistake for any home
you’ve ever been in.
And it will be named
the safest place
you’ve ever known. »
« Plants take time to spread their roots before you can even see their first leaves. Which is to say, just because you can’t see progress does not mean you aren’t making any. »

ive seen snippets here and there on tumblr. she is incredibly nice and i was always drawn to her writing. and let me tell you this first part titled 'isra and khalid' broke me. it was short and yet poignant. her other poems were really good too but couldn't grip me as much as the short story. after all solid and beautiful.

okay ma sha Allah this was absolutely wonderful ✨ so beautifully written, ma sha Allah.
all of the poems were lovely and soothing but the best parts of the book were the tiny love stories. i especially loved the one with isra and khalid. beautiful and heart-wrenching. i cried.
now i just need a book filled with such tiny heartwarming love stories. so request to the author — please write one!!!
BarakAllahu feeki 🌸
