I'm passionate about sports, spending time with family, traveling, and connecting with people who inspire me. I love listening to people's stories and sharing their journeys with the world!
One year, I agreed to sing a song before one of my son’s sporting events. I practiced for weeks, but I knew the song by heart already. So when I walked onto the field with the teams lined up on both sides of me, I closed my eyes and prayed. I started singing the first few lines. Then, I froze. In that moment I couldn’t remember the next line. A man behind me whispered the words I’d forgotten. As soon as I heard the helpful reminder, I belted out the rest of the lyrics with confidence. We all need a little help sometimes. In John 14, Jesus explained that we love Him by obeying Him, and He promised to ask the Father to give us a Helper—“the Spirit of truth” (vv. 15-16). Jesus said, “The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you” (v. 17). Though Jesus taught the disciples a lot while with them (v. 25), He said “the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you” (v. 26). As we prayerfully read the Bible, the Holy Spirit helps us interpret, understand, and apply God’s Word. His leading always aligns with Scripture—guiding, comforting, and transforming us in love, one helpful reminder at a time.

Reflecting on our Tafseer of Surah Al-An'amAlhamdulillah, it's great to be back together after Eid. Eid Mubarak to everyone—I hope your Eid is joyful and filled with blessings. May Allah accept all our deeds from Ramadan and grant us the opportunity to experience an even more meaningful Ramadan next year.Tonight, we continue our tafseer of Surah Al-An'am, picking up from Ayah 90, where we paused before Eid. Our aim now is to complete the remaining eleven pages, covering roughly a page each week. Once we finish this surah, I plan to go back and complete the last four surahs from Juz 'Amma, after which we'll pick a new topic or maybe start studying a classical text together, inshaAllah.As usual, we start our session with a beautiful recitation of Ratib Al-Haddad, reconnecting spiritually and setting a tranquil mood for our discussion.Today, we look at the prophets mentioned in Surah Al-An'am—Ibrahim, Dawud, Sulaiman, Ayyub, Yusuf, Musa, and Harun—and see how Allah uses their stories to comfort Prophet Muhammad ﷺ during his own times of difficulty. Each prophet faces unique challenges: Dawud and Sulaiman experience tests of gratitude (shukr), while prophets like Ayyub, Yusuf, and Musa endure tests of patience (sabr).The story of Prophet Yusuf (AS) especially resonates deeply because it closely parallels the struggles faced by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Both prophets experience rejection from their closest family members yet achieve eventual success through patience and reliance upon Allah.We also discuss the special role of Sayyidina Ali, highlighting how Ali supports Prophet Muhammad ﷺ from the earliest days. It's important to have balanced love: loving Ali deeply doesn't require us to dislike Abu Bakr or Umar. In fact, Ali himself names his children after these companions, reflecting their strong bond of brotherhood and mutual respect.Allah instructs us explicitly in this surah to follow the guidance and examples of these prophets and companions. Their lives serve as practical guides that help us navigate our own challenges.Tonight, we also discuss the unique authenticity and preservation of the Qur'an. Unlike previous scriptures, which undergo alterations and corruption, the Qur'an remains meticulously preserved through memorisation and oral transmission. I often share this remarkable aspect of the Qur'an during interfaith dialogues at the university, surprising many who learn how deeply Muslims engage with their scripture—even memorising it without necessarily understanding its language fully.Finally, we emphasise a crucial point: true belief in the Hereafter (Akhirah) directly leads us to safeguarding our prayers. Prayer is a key indicator of our faith and our belief in the life to come. Now, as Ramadan has ended, let's strive to maintain our dedication to prayers, proving our sincere belief in the Akhirah.May Allah enable us to internalise these reflections, strengthen our connection to the Qur'an, and bless our ongoing journey.

On this week's show we talk about 20 years of the HDTV and Home Theater Podcast! We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: A Software Update Is Killing Samsung Soundbars Apple TV+ loses $1 billion every year, according to new report ESPN might pay up to $2 billion for NFL Network, RedZone Netflix announces it is adding HDR10+ support for videos Apple to Launch HomeOS Later This Year Apple is set to have an exciting year in software development with significant updates planned for iOS 19, macOS 16, and iPadOS 19. However, the tech giant is also preparing to introduce a completely new operating system called ‘homeOS.' This new platform will accompany the launch of a novel device dubbed the ‘HomePad,' a smart display that blends features of the iPad and HomePod. The homeOS is anticipated to share many characteristics with Apple's existing platforms, yet it will be uniquely adapted for home use. It will feature a customizable Home Screen akin to those on iOS and iPadOS, allowing users to add widgets for weather, stocks, and reminders, launch apps from a grid, maintain a dock for favorite apps, and manage smart home controls. This familiarity should make it intuitive for current iPhone and iPad users. Additionally, Siri will play a pivotal role in homeOS, enhancing the integration of Apple Intelligence to provide a more context-aware and action-oriented voice experience, building on its capabilities from the HomePod and forthcoming iOS enhancements. In terms of applications, homeOS might not launch with a full App Store but it will come equipped with a robust suite of built-in Apple apps. Users can expect essentials like FaceTime, Notes, Calendar, Reminders, Home, Safari, Settings, News, Music, TV, Podcasts, Weather, and Photos. These apps will support the HomePad's function as a central home device, offering both productivity and entertainment options right out of the box, with the potential for more apps to be added in the future. A distinctive feature of homeOS will be its dynamic responsiveness to user proximity, enabled by sensors in the HomePad that adjust the display based on how close a person is. For instance, when a user is far from the device, it might showcase a slideshow of photos via the Photos app or display StandBy-like widgets as a screensaver. As the user approaches, the system will seamlessly transition to the Home Screen. This adaptive functionality underscores homeOS's design philosophy of “iOS, but for your home,” aiming to extend Apple's ecosystem cohesively into home environments and potentially appealing to the vast iPhone user base when the HomePad debuts later this year.

No matter how much you schedule, stress, or strive, you're still at the mercy of forces beyond your control. Welcome to The Daily, where we go through the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day. Today, we're looking at Ecclesiastes 8:6-9: For there is a time and a way for everything, although man's trouble lies heavy on him. For he does not know what is to be, for who can tell him how it will be? No man has power to retain the spirit, or power over the day of death. There is no discharge from war, nor will wickedness deliver those who are given to it. All this I observed while applying my heart to all that is done under the sun, when man had power over man to his hurt. — Ecclesiastes 8:6-9 Three reminders when life feels out of control Reminder One | The Burden of the Unknown Verse 6 reminds us that there's a time and a way for everything, yet we struggle under the burden of not knowing what's ahead. We worry about the big things—our careers, families, health—but no man knows what tomorrow holds (v. 7). The burden of the unknown can be bewildering. But what if instead of trying to control everything, we bowed before the One who already holds the future? Reminder Two | The Boundaries of Our Power No man has power to preserve the spirit or prolong his own life (v. 8). We can prepare, plan, and protect ourselves, but ultimately, our days are in God's hands. We can't postpone life's battles either—there's no pass from war. Whether it's spiritual warfare, personal struggles, or suffering, we all must face them. And pursuing wickedness won't provide an escape—sin only tightens its prison. Reminder Three | The Blessing of Surrender Solomon saw how people pursued power to prey on others (v. 9), but true strength doesn't come from pressing for control—it comes from placing our trust in God. When we prioritize His authority, we find peace in what we cannot control. Instead of pushing, we pause. Instead of pulling, we place it in His hands. Let's Get Practical ☑️ Where are you pressing for control in areas that belong to God? ☑️ What would it look like to place your trust in Him instead of worrying about the unknown? ☑️ How can you practice living today knowing your future is already secure in Christ? #TrustGod, #FaithOverFear, #DailyDevotional ASK THIS: What fears keep you from fully trusting God with the unknown?
