لُبنى May Allah reward you, Umm Issa. Just a small note: the phrase “لوحشة الفراق” doesn’t mean “I hate saying goodbye.” It actually refers to the loneliness or emptiness felt after parting. A closer translation would be something like “because of the loneliness of separation.”

Jazak Allahu khairan! ❤️ Subhana Allah that is so much deeper than the translation I found🥺 That is why studying Arabic is so important
