” And if We give man a taste of Mercy from Us, and then withdraw it from him, verily, he is despairing, ungrateful.
But if We let him taste good (favour) after evil (poverty and harm) has touched him, he is sure to say: “Ills have departed from me.” Surely, he is exultant, and boastful (ungrateful to Allah).
Except those who show patience and do righteous good deeds: those,...

And if you know How do you get up from an all time low? I’m in pieces, seems like peace is the only thing I’ll never know How do you get out, get out?
Cause driving won’t do it Flying won’t do it Denying won’t do it Crying won’t drown it out, what you said…
Anonymous asked: Could you please tell us how you came to find Islaam? It's amazing how Muslims never tire of hearing how and why someone accepts Islaam, SubhaanAllaah it's truly amazing how each revert story is unique!
Anonymous asked: I haven't finished the book yet but it is such an empowering and motivating book! SubhaanAllaah! I'm at the bit where Nai'ma has to face her family's reaction to her reversion to Islaam. May Allaah ease your journey for the truth and guide your family so they can see the light just as you have.
Anonymous asked: A quote from the Qur'aan about your situation: "Do people think that they will be left alone because they say: 'We believe,' and will not be tested? Surah al-'Ankabut (29:2). I pray and hope that Allaah grants you the patience and perseverance of the early Muslimeen. And i also pray that Allaah alleviates you from this hardship.

Anonymous asked: SubhaanAllaah! Your story brings tears to my eyes!

My L-Plate fell off on the dual carriageway :/ !
Last Saturday, my mum and I drove down to Devon to visit Exeter University on its “open day”, I drove down part of the way there and part of the way back, it was good to do a bit of long distance driving and on roads that I’m not familiar with too! It was all going fine and well, then on the way back just cruising down the dual carriageway at about 65mph when low and behold, the L plate (for...

I am so happy and excited right now
I was just about to read my dhuhr prayer in the prayer room at college about an hour ago when I heard the door open and I wondered who is this going to be? I expected it to be the teacher who is organising our redecoration and renovation; I thought to myself, she’s not going to recognise me because I’m in hijab! However, to my surprise, it was a brother! He gave me salaam and asked me if I had...

The blues
These last couple of days I’ve been feeling a bit down and frustrated, I don’t know whats caused this feeling, Shaytaan, my nufs or me falling after trying to climb too high too fast.
Somebody wise once told me, “Life is a test and it is full of set backs. It’s not whether you lose your footing but how you pick yourself up that is the show of your character. Muslims are...

Muslims at work
Today while I was at work, I came back round to the swimming pool after taking the previous lessons children back round to their parents. I got into the pool while the other teacher took the register for the next lesson. It was at that moment that a hijabi sister walked round with her two daughters, I was surprised but happy, in almost 2 1/2 years of working in this job I haven’t ever...

During the Summer I read a novel in French for the first time, I remember trying to a couple of years ago and it being too difficult but this time I got through it and was able to understand! There was some vocab here and there that I didn’t know, especially the colloquial language, but I was pleasantly surprised at my ability to read it! Alhamdolellah! It is one of my dreams in life to...

Back in the bathing suit: Swimming and Le Francais...
Yesterday was my first day back in the pool swimming, I’ve been back in teaching since last Thursday but I can manage to stay more covered for that whereas for the swimming class I attend, well, it requires a “swimming costume”. I no longer feel comfortable dressed like this, with only a piece of black lycra to cover me, well actually I haven’t felt comfortable like this for quite a while. It...

I would like to get a Palestine tshirt or hoodie
I think it would provoke education and discussion, leading to beneficial results inshAllah, at least making people who may not know about the issue aware.
However I’m finding it hard to find a design I like online, I don’t want to wear something too provocative or something that will make me feel self conscious so I may do something I’ve never done before and look into getting...

Muslims for life, not just for Ramadan
InshAllah
Where did the summer go?
I can’t believe its September already and that I’ve got to go back to college on Monday, back into the same old routine! I really don’t know where the weeks have gone, summer lasted forever when I was little but it now it goes past in a blink of an eye.
The space between my fingers is where yours should...

I suddenly had a thought late a couple of nights ago, after I had written about the argument with my mum. The whole of Ramadan everything was good and I was really seeing a lot of improvements, I thought progress was being made. Then bam, early Tuesday evening a whole load of anger spilled out. I was thinking, some people were celebrating Eid that day and it was a couple of hours before maghrib...
