Talk to Allah by Ayesha Syahira

4.0

Why do we rarely truly talk to God about the troubles that are weighing us down?

This is Ayesha's second book and I can see how much she have grown in her writings. Some parts are quite repetitive, but it's okay.

As the title suggests, Talk To Allah, finding comfort by making du'a to him, in this book, Ayesha tells us her story of how she managed to find comfort as she gets closer and closer to Allah by making du'a, casually speaking in her mother tongue to Allahu Ya Alim, who understands every languages there are.

Some of us still might believed that it's completely a sin to just talk to Allah without being on a prayer mat, but that's absolutely not true. So Ayesha, tells her wonderful experiences of how she found out that she could even doll up while having a recitation session, how she make du'a while driving, and at other time.

"Du'a is something that you do and you move towards the direction". - Pg 168

The author did her best to help pulling us out from the awkwardness of "casually talking" to Allah like He's our bestfriend rather than seeking other means for self-comfort which only works temporarily. "Our du'a does change qadr" - Pg 99
