In the name of Allah,Most Gracious,Most Merciful. Say: He(Allah) is One. Allah is He on whom we all depend. He begets not,nor is He begotten. And there is none like Him. He is the Most Merciful,the Great,the Sovereign,the Irresistable,the Creator,the Fashioner,the All-Forgiving,the Provider. We call Him by all His noble names because it is Him we turn to. We seek peace and blessings from you upon our beloved prophet muhammad(saw),his household and companions and we pray You grant him Al-Wasilah and Al-Fadilah and raise him to Maqam Mamud. Amin. Ya Allah,forgive us our mistakes and that which we did intentionally,that which we did secretly and publicly and that which You know best of us,You are the Source of Advancement and You are the Source of Retardation,there is no other god except You. My lord, I pray for me and my sisters here,You alone knows what is best for us,we do not know. We pray You bestow on us that which is good for us. Ya Allah,our hearts are heavy,we long to see our offsprings in our life time but we continue to be patient and persevere becos indeed You are with patient ones and our reward is with You. Ya Allah,pls forgive us our shortcomings becos we r not perfect but You r the Perfect God,do not punish us if we make mistake or forget but guide us aright. Increase us in our iman and help us to worship You in the best of ways. Bless our parents,husbands,siblings,relatives and the entire muslim ummah. Ya Allah,some of us are dealing with low sper.m count,blocked tubes,pcos,unexplained infertility and other medical terms that has bn given to our condition,but You are the God who makes the impposible possible. When You will a thing,You only say to it 'Kun Fayakun'. You bring forth the dead from the living and the living from the dead. Nothing is too much for You to do. O Ya Allah, we cry to You to bless us from Your bounteous treasures,Creator of the heavens and the earth,we cannot do it on our own and we cannot ask anyone to give us but You cos You are our Lord. Have mercy on us,grant us righteous and pious children. Children who will be a light in our household,who will worship You and be useful to d entire muslim ummah. Alhamdulillah,grant us aljannah firdaus and protect us from the torment of the grave and fire!!. Thank you Ya Rabb. Rabbana taqabalmina innaka samiu duai,subhanna rabbika rabbizati amayasafun walasamu al'muslimin walhamdulillahi rabbil alamin. Amin.

Ameen,thanks sisters for the wonderful write ups it has realy made my day.

Salam Ladies,

Hope you all enjoyed your May Day ! It's bank holiday today not looking forward to work tomorrow jare.but Alhamdullah I'm glad I've got something to keep me busy!

Asalam alykum All.Hope we'r all doing fyn.
@Rainyday,so sorry AF reared her ugly head on a happy day for you.Take heart cos Allah knows and would do the best for us in good time.your experience on your trip was hilarious.
@AmatuRahman,glad to hear you'r doing good.may Allah make it a success.
@Beetle,my dear sister,hmm..this is really a thing.I'v lived in Lagos for a very long time and I can assure you stuff happens.My sincere advise for you as a sister in Islam and a fellow TTC person is to steer clear of any alfa or whatever the likes of them call themselves.They cos you nothing more than troubles and heartache infact,they make you commit shirk to Allah.which is the highest injustice one can do to one's soul.whatever prayers this so-called alfa gave you invited the jinns to you and increased your predicament cos jinns are very difficult to deal with once they have their attention on you cos they see us but we can't see them.forget about him saying your MIL is responsible cos these people tell a lot of lies to make you believe them(both jinns and alfas)the prophet SAW said in a hadith that the jinns say one truth and add 99 lies to it.Visiting this people has destroyed a lot of homes I tell you.where one member will be implicated in being the cause of another's problem.I'v seen one very close to me happen.you shouldn't even be patronising such places cos the prophet SAW sai whoever visits a soothsayer and believes whatever he says will not have his salah accepted for 40 days.its a very serious issue which should not be taken lightly.Don't allow TTC drive you to commit shirk to Allah.pls don't despair of the mercy of Allah cos its only Allah that can grant children none other than Him can do it.Allah says in the Quran that all other people you call on for help and assistance don't have power to o anything,they can't even help themselves.if a fly were to take from their food they can't even get it back.so please let's be wary of all these things.don't take adise and suggestions from everybody.only people that are islamicaly upright and have the fear of Allah.(Referring to the person that referre the alfa to you).right now,re-proclaim your shahada,stop the prayers the alfa gave you,repent to Allah sincerely,regret ever involving in this act,free your mind of evil tots towards your MIL and commit to Allah in prayers.Make sure to do the morning and evening recommended supplications in fortress of the muslim book(try and get it if you don't have one)so as to free yourself from the jinns and recite or play surah baqarah in your home always.please don't allow this episode to break your marriage.cos it could! Enough said.

Salam my sisters I am so glad we could have a thread like this.....pls let's be free to ask questions and help each other in this journey. Insha Allah, all our prayers will be answered. I'm short of words right now cos am emotionally down but in Him(Allah) we trust and believe that everything will be alright. Ma- salam

@cocodiva thanks a lot. I didn't visit him o, What is quite shocking is that the surahs are from Quran. Read surah yasin, asri,inshirah, zalzalah. etc etc. So me I no Know. But how can prayer from Quran invoke jinns? It seems I'm so clueless in the spiritual aspect of things. Below is one I've done in the past sef.

May Allah comfort you.E ni ti o ba gbe ara le Olorun,ko ni p'ofo

Beetle: @cocodiva thanks a lot. I didn't visit him o, he would just send prayers via email and we chat via skype. What is quite shocking is that the surahs are from Quran. Read surah yasin, asri,inshirah, zalzalah. etc etc. So me I no Know. But how can prayer from Quran invoke jinns? It seems I'm so clueless in the spiritual aspect of things. Below is one I've done in the past sef.

10 ROKHATS,
5 SALAM ,
FATHAT 1, SURAT NAAS 11 EACH ROKHAT ,

AFTER SALAMO
{YAH HAFEEZ 11111/5555}


I've got the fortress and I use it both morning and evening. I do all the above, even play the adhan and surah baqarah. It's the money that was getting too much. Jinn sef no let me rest. Saying I need to pay money to do Sara, me sef no get money myself, having to pay off my enormous IVF bills. It's just the tahajud that he was sending. I was even accusing someone that I know of shirk after they told me they had visited an Alfa that uses sand and I was quoting the 40 day thing saying they should go with mine who helps with Quran not knowing he is using jinns but putting a front. My dreams are terrifying and he would be asking me to tell him so he can interpret. I swear I'm so naive.

May Allah forgive us and protect us from shirk.i use to say to myself;how can i make my prayer more effective,which pious man can pray for me,how do i know him?e.t.c.Hmmm,may Allah grant our prayers.

@ Zeezy how come you know my name? That is the meaning of my name sister.....Tawakalitu Ala Rahmon.. Thanks for encouraging me..may Allah grant your request this month insha Allah. Thanks so much

May Allah continue to guide us to d right path,from d very first month of marriage I have faced a lot of pressure from my family esp my mum,I have always told her to cool down and let's put our trust in Allah,but to no avail,she has sent diff kinds of herbs,infact I have lost count of it all.when I went home,within 6 days she had brought up 4 diff places for us to visit(its dt bad)I cried and cried was just tried of d whole stress.
When I refused to go visit d places it was a tug of war,a family meeting was called,and everyone was just insisting dt its for my own gud,finally I decided to even go and listen,they said after all he is a mallam,my sisters d man started recitations,then d next tin,na to hit my head(mo gbe abeg help me see hypnosis)I just stare shockingly @ d drama,he asked if I felt sth coming out of my body,I said no am fine,he kept insistin.infact he just wanted me to admit dt am feelin sth wen am nt just to justify d huge amounts dt mumsy has been givin him,he practically assumed dt it must be my co wife,of which I am d only wife.
@beetle,my dear sis,pls cut all ties with dt Alfa,recite ur Ayatul kursiyu,suratul iklaas,Naas,falaq befor u sleep nd also dust ur bed seven tyms rebukin shaytan and all jinns by saying A'udhu billahi minash shaitanir rajiim b4 sleeping insha Allah u will see d diff,may Allah protect us all from shaytan d accused,amin

Tbaby4real: @ Zeezy how come you know my name? That is the meaning of my name sister.....Tawakalitu Ala Rahmon.. Thanks for encouraging me..may Allah grant your request this month insha Allah. Thanks so much

.What a lovely name.Aaamin

Asalam alykum all.
@Tbaby4real,you're welcome to this forum.May Allah grant our requests.
@Beetle,that your alfa na sophisticated one o.lol using skype and emails.That is why the prophet SAW said every innovation is in the hell fire.Allah perfected this religion in the life time of the prophet Q5:3 so whatever was not done or approved by the prophet and his companions in their lifetime is not part of Islam.And we should not do it.Those things he gave you to chant were never sanctioned by the prophet in any hadith.ya Hafeez more than eleven thousand times! Subhanallah.it was not even the practice of the prophet to be calling Allah's name endlessly without adding his request immediately.As long as we stay within the confines of the sunnah we'l be safe and sound inshaAllah.he just wants to keep you busy with problems so that you'l keep having use for him and keep giving him money.He's probably making his own efforts using your name etc to send those things to you may Allah help us.Those people are full of deception.I'v heard of the case of a lady seeking a husband who went to an alfa.the alfa gave her something to use.The next thing we saw was the lady becoming the alfa's wife.even though he already had other women in his house!These powers exist no doubt but those people using them have sold their souls to shaitan and are just making efforts to decieve people and also ruin their lives.please don't even speak to him again.let alone skype him.continue with the duas and you'l be victorious inshaAllah.it'l pass.and intensify tahajjud cos it is at that time the jinns are active.Allah'l safeguard you by His mercy.
@Amazeballs,your experience with the mallam was a funny one.lols

@AmatuRahman,my sister,how are you doing?May Allah[S.W.T]be with you.May you achieve pregnancy and then successful birth through it,MashaAllah.

Asalam alaikum waramatullahi wabarakatuh,
@ amazeball jazakallahu khairan for that write up.
@ rainyday Amina Ya Allah to those wonderful prayers it got me crying.
@ coco diva thanks for the prayers sis,am there holding on to almighty Allah's mercy.
@ zeezy thanks for the prayer my sister.

Yaa-Giyaathal mustagithiina agithni(O God who help those who seek help please help us all).
Amina Ya Allah

Ya Allah please make this cycle a success for all of us. Amina Ya Allah

Asalam alaikum my sisters,cocodiva,beetle,abibby.zeezy,beloved1993,Amaturahman,venuss,amazeballs.tbaby4real,koreye,naffysa,safe06(where u enter??) and all. Hope we are all doing fine and being strong? InshaAllah,we will have a reason to smile and thank our creator Amin. Pls I have a question...how can one identify irregular cycle? The reason am asking is becos I ve read dat a menstual cycle should @ least be constant,like every 28days,30days etc. Mine comes sometimes in a month 27days,d next month might b 30days,den 29days,28days,31days...it jst kip fluctuating like dat,does it mean its irregular And also,I don't know if dere is anyone who can interprete dese results from my day 3blood test. FSH:9.1mlu/ml. LH:8.56mlu/ml. Thanks my dear sisters. Jazzakallahu khairan!

Salam,
@ Rainy day, your levels are alright but did you by any chance had your Oestradiol tested as well? This needs to Be low in conjunction with your FSH. As long as your cycle is between 28-30 days, that should be alright but also ask your doctor.

Lol at irregular, irregular means anything from 2 months to a year. You better be doing Alhamdullah that it comes every month. That was my fear before but my doctor pacified me when I asked the same question. Just make sure you have your Oestradiol tested as well. That gives a good picture of your fertility.

@ rainyday Salam, thanks for adding my name. May your name be on the list of good doers. With the little knowledge I have, I think your cycle is okay. This should not be call an irregular cycle. Abeg, may it not be your portion. Try to listen to your body at any cycle for you to know when you actually ovulate.
@all hope we are all doing great? May Allah (SWT) grant our effort to success this month. Amin.

Thanks @beetle and tbaby4real..jazakallahu khairan. @beetle,I will try and do d oestradiol test very soon inshaAllah. May Allah make our affairs easy for us and grant us d good of dis world and hereafter Amin.

Asalam alykum dear sisters hope we're all doing great?May Allah ease our task-amin.
@Rainyday,your cycle is regular going by your description.its not clockwork 28 days doesn't mean its irregular.As long as it visits you monthly,its good.
Your day 3 blood work however,may be on the borderline of fair and high.Depending on the grade used by your clinic.Each clinic has its own interpretation used in their grading.its relative,you'l get the appropriate grading from your clinic.but its definately not a bad figure.some women get way higher than that and still get pregnant.May Allah grant us our heart desires and bless us in them-amin

Your day 3 blood work however,may be on the borderline of fair and high.Depending on the grade used by your clinic.Each clinic has its own interpretation used in their grading.my clinic for instance,grades this figure high.The very first day 3 bloodwork I had like 2 years ago was above 9.can't remember the actual figure now but it was graded high.so I had to do a lot of alternative therapies.which brought it down to 6.1 now which is considered fine by my clinic.though then I wasn't considering IVF.I was still seeking a diagnosis.so,its relative,you'l get the appropriate grading from your clinic.but its definately not a bad figure.some women get way higher than that and still get pregnant.May Allah grant us our heart desires and bless us in them-amin

Thanks my sis,may Allah reward u. Pls what are the alternative therapies u did,I don't mind giving it a try too

Assalamu alaykum Ummus...I hope everyone is doing fine. Alhamdulillah,I added another year today. Allah has indeed been merciful and kind to me,I can't thank Him enough.
