‎اقرأ.
there is a way of words—
how they can taste, surround, soothe, break, envelop, & create atmospheres like a sandstorm of different emotions.
they allow us to think critically 
even though sometimes it feels as though they’ll bite our backs, but really, it’s the way we use them that truly effects every nerve and internal gaze that becomes a reflection of ourselves. 
what I’m trying to say is—
this was the first proclamation that الله delivered to Muhammad ﷺ in divinity.
It cannot be lost
& it must be held to the utmost importance.
use your words for kindness.
use them for inspiration.
