MaaaMaaaa!!!!!

Al Salam Alikum wa Rahmat Allah wa Barakatoh

Dear "Mom"

My words fail to express my inner feelings towards you dear "love", I don't think that any other mother in this world might do even one forth of what "you" did for us, and what "you" gave us.

I still remember when we were in Kuwait - where I was born - even though we were children, how you were working as hard and as much as you can to let us complete our studies, I remember when you refused my father's offer that we stay at home to help you doing your countless duties, and I remember your unique and memorable answer:  "No!!!  Let my daughters complete their studies, I missed that invaluable opportunity to complete my studies, and I don't want them to miss their education as well". 

"Ya Allah bless my unique mother", what kind of woman or mother you are!!!  MaMaaaa, please forgive me for all what I did when I was a child or a teenager, I was such an annoying girl, please Mama pleasssse forgive my childish, selfish, ....way of living...forgive my tough and fussy way of living in my very early time in this life!!!

I know, you might be confused!!!  What am I saying?!!!  You know why?!!!  Because you have the Greatest and kindest heart I've ever met in this life, I remember whenever I'm telling you these days to forgive for giving you that hard time in my childhood, do you remember, dear me, what were you answering me?!!!  You'll just tell me:  What did you do for me that I'll forgive you, I can't remember anything but kindness and piety!!!  No "Great Mother" I wasn't like that, but it's your white heart that never see, except the goodness, may Allah be with you, may Allah bless you, may Allah cure you from your "numberless" sicknesses dear "Mom".

Can all of you imagine this kind of mother, do you think that such a mother as well as all of our mothers who "carried" us for nine months if not more!!!  Facing all the pregnancy complexity and miserable time, then, confronting what?!!!  The toughest and most special experience for all women, the moment of "giving birth"....And then what is that all?!!!  Of course not!!!  Then losing her beauty, her health, her youth,....For what reason?!!!....To raise us up as neatly and as the best as "she" can ever do.

What a loooong story!!!  Won't you ever finish your topic this day?!!!......If I continue talking about our mothers in general,,, and my "Unique Mother" in particular, I'll never stop...

Only one thing I want to add, can we reward this "Great" mother just once a year?!!!  Is that really what she deserves?!!!  Or, we should visit her as much as we can on weekly if not daily basis, with all the gifts and presents we can afford, not necessarily tangible ones but even with a nice warm "Smile", a veeeery big "Hug" or whatever kind of reward she wishes and likes.

Dear "Mom", I promise to visit  you at least twice or triple a week regardless of my full schedule, my husband's duties, my house duties, my children, my university:  Exams, Presentations, Assignments, Projects, etc.  My critical "Health" situation, my other many duties.....I'm not doing that as a patronage, but it's your right as Allah ordered me and also My Prophet -peace and blessings of Allah be upon him- asked me to do.

This is my promise.....What about yours'?!!!
