Asalaam Alaikum Sister,
I think this is a wonderful idea. I have been keeping a Quran journal for about two months now. I do it at the end of the day as I am winding down before bed, after my daughter has gone to sleep. I find it a great way to end my day, and to help me to relax and refocus before I sleep. So, alhamdulilah for a great suggestion, that I second!

Julie: Wa’alaikum assalam warahmatullah. good for you! I’ve been trying to find a way to include reading Qur’an and keeping a journal in my day and i thought that perhaps a cup of tea would be just the thing to motivate me.
Ijtema: Wa’alaikum assalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. May Allah bless you. Barak Allahu feekum :)

This sounds great…embracing fajr instead of getting it over with mash’Allah. Going to do this myself insh’Allah.

As-salaamu’alaykum wa Rahmatu Llahi wa Barakatuhu my dearest sister,
Masha’Allah.. I love this!
Insha’Allah I can put it into practice. Me and journaling don’t go very well.. but the least I can do is try.
Jazak’Allah.
