Staying positive in the times of social distancing- 5ways


Hey guys

I hope you guys are safe and sound since we all know that pandemic coronavirus or covid-19 has taken over the whole world. The Only way through which one can stay safe is “social distancing” and “washing hands for at least 20seconds”


keep social distancing

This coronavirus lockdown has made most of us depressed and feelings like anxiety , boriat and all
But just let me tell you if we just change the way we are viewing our current situation we can actually come out of it winningly innshALLAH.

First of all, think about it as this is ALLAH’S will and ponder upon what does he expects from us through this

Like in ramzan ALLAH TA’ALA bless us with itekaf and what’s the purpose of itekaf ? It is to take a break from all kind of social meetings and to connect and repent to ALLAH so that he may cleanse our heart. Just like that think about this whole situation as ALLAH wants us to take a break from our social life and reconnect to him.
washing 20sec, coronasaty safe

im writing for people who are privileged enough to stay at home. Those who aren’t financially dependent on daily wages. Obviously people are loosing out on money but still Alhamdulilah if we actualy think about our own situation we are much more blessed than we can even think of at this time

So how should we behave in this pandemic and how to come out winningly through this?
1.       Stop burdening yourself by thinking too much about the future



stop overthinking

So many people even in my circle they are just burdening themselves and all the time reading , listening and sharing the news of coronavirus. Stop taking the information , don’t let the information overflow , the amount of information which we need to know , we already know that is all the precautionary measures.

2.       Adopt it or treat it like a holiday



back to normal life


We need to understand that it’s is our social responsibility to stay at home for ourselves and for other’s safety aswell. Make a niyat of saving other’s life or humanity’s goodwill and get ALLAH’S reward  innshaALLAH.
Moreover we don’t have any other option than that. The only option we have right now is to spend the time being in depression or being happy “k haey ab kia krai kuch karny ko nahii or treat it like a blessing that you have no work pressure , no studies pressure.
In short ALLAH ta’ala ne time diya hai make most of it spend it the way you like it.
Specially to those who have always been complaining that “we don’t have time to spend with family or to watch Netflix , to work-out ,wish we could have some spare time and all.
So people this is the golden time for each and every one of us.
ALLAH ta’ala ne holiday di  hai , aish krain

3.       Do exercise daily

do exercise


There so many videos which can be found easily on youtube , DIY videos , yoga. Air quality of Lahore is way better than before so even if you aren’t willing to do that. Do a 30 minute walk daily or you can ride a bicycle if you have one. This isn’t not only good for your physical health but mental health as well.

4.       Do something creative / pick up a hobby

get a hobby

This is the best time to explore your talents, stop being so lazy be creative pick up a hobby find your passion if you don’t know already.  Like reading , writing , gardening , baking ,stitching ,designing, hairstyling , makeup anything which interests you.
be creative


If in case you can’t decide what to do  so here is  a tip specially for girls ,start cooking with your mom “the daily ka salaan”. So that when we come out of this we can feel accomplished that we have actually learnt something during this lockdown. Believe in yourself know your worth

5.       Explore your inner self


think of inner self

Think about your life , think about your inner self, ponder over your good and bad habits. What are things that you have adopted and you want to get rid of which are actually disliked by ALLAH ta’ala , repent to him ,treat this time like a itekaf or imagine you get a free rehab where you can try to leave all your bad habits and thoughts.

break bad hoabits. adopt good habits

Try adopting some good qualities e.g the best thing to do right now is be kind and loving towards your parents. Help them in their household work as much as you can , spend time with them trust me this can be a golden time to get Maa Baap ki duaa .Yes you can do it. We all can do it
·         Ponder upon your deeni and dunyawi life, where do you wanna see yourself as a spiritual and practical person. Work on it

·         Lastly a lot of people say that this is sign of ALLAH’s anger and  yes that might be true but it’s on us to either change it in a punishment or blessing.
