Maturity via Self-Control

Maturity is an Important-Thing, yet very challenging to amass & retain. It’s simply so natural&normal for Humans to react exclusively via Impulse. Also, Maturity is never on our Terms: we must go through Real-Shit, in order to respect/appreciate the Necessity to evolve, improve, etc. Maturity has nothing to do with Chronology, yet it has everything… Continue reading

The Danger of being Shameless

The Basic-Principle regarding al-Fusūq/Sinning is that we all do it as Humans generally. Allah states: “And Humanity was created Weak.”…the Ultimate-Sifah/Manifestation of adh-Dhi`f/Weakness is al-Fusūq by default. At the Same-Time though: revealing one’s Sins for Public-Spectacle is literally worse than the Sins themselves. Allah states: “Those whom believe pay attention: Upon you are yourselves.”. This… Continue reading

The Illusion of Knowledge

There was literally a Point in Time, via my Life, that I actually thought/felt that I had Islāmic-Knowledge. (Ironically) it wasn’t until I actually increased my Islāmic-Knowledge, that I realized how Islāmically-Ignorant I truly am. It’s easy to think we know something, until the Knowledge we acquire proves us wrong. Gareth Bryant 1443, A.H./2022, C.E. Continue reading

I am the Monster under the Bed!!!

When the Sun drops down & the Night has risen… …My claws spring-out, my heart cold, eyes crimson. I always wait for the Twilight… …it is the best time to strike. Underneath the beds, of all those whom fear me… …They know that I’m real, they understand, clearly. When I attack, it’s as though I’m… Continue reading

My Transition from Boy to Man

I was once a Boy: I used to be a boy. My life was a toy. I would take things lightly, and shun responsibility, but that was clearly in the past. Pursuing the fleeting and worthless pleasures, you think you want, really never last. I used to think of myself as the “ladies’-man”; I arrogantly… Continue reading

My thoughts on Gratitude:

Gratitude: Great are all the enumerable favors that Allah has given me. Received without Him wanting payback, He gives for free. And, He only requires that we devote ourselves to Him solely. This service, which we owe our owner, is for Him exclusively. I must always remind myself that Allah is my benefactor. The obligation… Continue reading

About Gareth Bryant’s Writing/Blogging:

This is the official writing-blog of Gareth Bryant. To keep it simple: I just love writing poetry & writing generally. I can make a poem out of anything, and I can write about any subject matter. This is just one of the things that Allah has given me as a talent, and I plan to share that with as many individuals on Earth as possible.

If you enjoy poetry/writing just as much as I do, or even more, then, this page is just for you & so is my writing & poetry. 🙂

Any thoughts, reflections, advice, comments, complaints, please, feel free to leave them, so I can receive them, and make attempts to not only improve my own writing, but to make sure that whoever views this page is able to enjoy what I’m presenting even more, and if they’re not enjoying what’s being presented, that I go out of my way to make sure that they do enjoy it.
