The universe, after serving the mankind for billions of years, has finally taken a break and has reduced all humanity to a physical lockdown and here all of us have a God given opportunity to stay at our homes, with our loved ones, in our sanctuary.

We've all started to love a little more, pray more heart fully, being more grateful for all the little things life has to offer and paying attention to small details that otherwise skipped our perception.

We've started noticing how our smile curves up more on one side, and the little dimple that hides in your significant other, deepening everytime you look at him.

'Time alone with yourself is a space in your life for healing, learning, and empowerment.'

This quarantine has taught me to look into the positive side of life and to keep all the negative thoughts away, I indulged myself into making pieces of art that reflect my mind and the state of gratefulness I am in, as Allah saeen has protected us in this difficult time and there's food on the table for us.

Shukar Alhumdulilahh!

The Ayaah: 'HASBUNALLAHU WA NI'MAL WAKEEL'

Translates into:'Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best disposer of affairs.'

This beautiful verse touched my heart and led me into articulating the verse onto my canvas with utmost love and obligation.
