Light in the Darkness
This time, the electricity was very troublesome. The light came after twenty-seven to twenty-eight hours and even after that, it kept blinking for three days. "In some areas, electricity came after four days." Hearing this, we also remained patient and grateful. Alhamdulillah, the generator is running. We sit comfortably under the fan and think of those who do not have this facility. May Allah Almighty make things easy for everyone and give good guidance to the government.

“Influencers Gone Wild” and the Price of Being Seen in the Age of Algorithms

His Freckle Too, Stayed Until Morning
I did not notice it before. That small freckle just beneath his left eye, the one the light always seems to find before I do. How many times have I seen his face and never really seen it?
