Hannah’s Daily Note

I used to filter my duas. I’d make them smaller, more reasonable, because deep down I didn’t think I deserved to ask Allah for anything big.

I used to sit after salah feeling small. Apologetic. Scared to even say what I really wanted.

And that was when I was praying. There were times when I wasn’t praying at all.
And in those moments, I wouldn’t ask for anything, because I convinced myself I didn’t have the right.

Everything changed when I became secure in my connection again. Not perfect, but secure. When I stopped punishing myself for ups and downs. When I made room for mistakes.

And that’s when something clicked:
I can ask Allah for big things even when I’m imperfect.
I can dream big even while I’m still figuring it out.

And the most amazing part?
Some of the things I was too scared to ask for… I have them now. Alhamdulilah.

So if you’re holding back from asking Allah for what you really want, maybe it’s time to allow yourself to be imperfect.
