Urban Muslim

We should be mindful of what we post and share with others via social media platforms. If we desire to be an influencer, we should be responsible and know that what we say or do could be used against us, for the better or worse. Do rethink before even uploading a content for it might be sinful and backfire in this world and the hereafter.

Can you imagine what it is like to give birth in the month of ramadan? For the fathers, it. will be interesting as probably you would be to busy to even prepare anything for breakfast. But the joy of seeing your child for the first time makes the whole fasting and ibadah more meaningful.

We have more time than ever since the pandemic took place. The biggest struggle I have is the failure of utilising the time wisely to memorise the quran. Memorising the quran takes more effort as compared to reading it. May we have the strength to do overcome our struggles and weaknesses while we still have the means and time to do so. InsyaAllah

Have you ever heard a tv or a radio commercial promoting Jannah? What would it sound like?

We would prepare for holidays, a picnic or even to dine at a restaurant. The minimum thing we will bring is a tool for payment or simply a water bottle. We might not use it, but it might come in handy. But what if the life after death is real and we came empty handed?

When you start to wonder, "what is the meaning of life", you should start thinking about where you will be heading afther the end of your life. There must be something. We should find out what is the purpose of life and what should we do with this life. Keep on asking and keep on searching. Don't take chances as we tend to regret most of the time.

A night in an Islamic school

If we were to take every conversation as the last, we would want to last in a good way.

People of other faiths are puzzled to how we can be so "devoted" and be consistent in our strict routines day by day.

We don't limit well wishes and prayers to one specific day or limited to an occasion, other than what is in the teachings. Make your well wishes to the people around regardless of occasions.

The kids knew the importance of the greetings which is wishing someone peacefulness but they found it hard to practice it.

There bound to be challenges and math seems to be the toughest among all 10 subjects.

Surprised to know that the kids were having a hard time adjusting back to the school routine.

After a month of school break and the end of the eid season, the kids are physically ready but not mentally. What's the biggest thing that they hate about their Madrasah?

The kids have an interesting way of motivating themselves to continue finding the night of power.

Talking to my kids and relating it back to islam gives me a better understanding of how they perceive things and hoping they see the logic.

The kids were wide awake and our simple suhur was enough.
