New Ramadan Blog Series

‘Ramadan Reads’ is my newly launched blog series where I will in shaa Allah be reading and sharing main takeaways from this book.

My introduction to the series has already gone live, I’d love it if you check it out.

A new post will go live everyday in Ramadhan. Please join me on this journey of knowledge and soul-purification.

Link to the blog is in my bio and link to the post is in my stories 🙏🏾

MUCH ADO ABOUT RAMADAN

You’ve tried and tried but you’re just not feeling it.

Everyone is getting all giddy and excited about Ramadan but it’s just not happening to you.

If you were actually honest, you’re kind of dreading it a little bit.
😬

Yikes.

If this is you, then I just might have the thing you need!

“Much Ado about Ramadan” is a new post that’s now live on my blog. It is meant to be a little pick me up for anyone who might be feeling a bit unexcited and not anticipatory of the blessed month of Ramadan.

Go check it out. Link is in my stories and my bio

Be Good and Good will come back to you

هَلۡ جَزَآءُ ٱلۡإِحۡسَٰنِ إِلَّا ٱلۡإِحۡسَٰنُ

Ar-Rahman verse 60

COME AS YOU ARE For all the twelve years I have

COME AS YOU ARE

For all the twelve years I have spent writing and blogging on the internet, I always balked at the idea of talking about the “Dunya” stuff. i.e all that stuff that the “beauty and lifestyle bloggers/influencers” talked about.

I was adamant about sharing only beneficial stuff on the internet - Most of the time.
Why? I didn’t want to encourage wanton commercialism, greed and possibly, envy. But most of all, I didn’t want to come across as being shallow. 🫠🫠🫠

But the truth is, I enjoy a lot of that stuff!

I love handbags, home decor, books, beauty and skincare, a bit of clothing, travel, etc. and I am not hesitant about leaning into this side of who I am- offline.

I would get excited by a skincare product or a pair of shoes or handbag that I had discovered and would want to share it with my friends and subscribers but I’d stop myself.

But if it’s really such a bad thing to encourage others upon, why am I indulging in it?

After doing a lot of soul searching, I realised that I was afraid of the slippery slope of the internet world. Sadly we all know of many a Hijabi blogger who began with different intentions but ended up somewhere else. May Allah (subhaanahu wa ta’ala) return our hearts back to Him when they deviate. Aamin

Like many people, I have a love/hate relationship with SM. I am afraid of falling into error but I also want to present my whole self (within the confines of my Islamic faith).

I am a Muslim woman who loves to share Islamic reminders, but also one who loves to squeal about her latest love for minimal ethereal jewelry and her dream to own a Lady Dior. I am the woman who wants to share lessons from a Halaqah she attended or a lecture she watched on YouTube with her friends but also wants to share links and recs to the most Instagrammable cafe and beauty salon on the high street 💁🏾‍♀️

And as far as I know, there is nothing wrong in all of the above. Moderation, Discipline and mindfulness of Allah’s boundaries are the names of the game. And that is where the real work lies.

What say you? Is this balance and self-control achievable? 💪🏾
Or is this just a pipe dream? 😬

REALLY worked out for you 😉

Planning and execution will not always birth the vision you had,

But, plan and execute anyway.

Week 5: Flower motifs

This piece took me three days to complete as I had to wait for each step to dry before moving on to the next.
I enjoyed this one because it was a welcome break from constantly practicing arches.

I think I’ll get some floating frames and an easel next year. Until then, on to the next!

Week 4b: Still practicing how to get the perfect arch and it is a LOT trickier than it appears. I’ve watched countless videos on YouTube lol and I’m yet to get it right.

Yet.

Ended up with two pieces because I wasn’t satisfied with my original piece. Not a bad outcome because it made me see where I was getting it wrong. Looking forward to next week!
