I have a coffee mug from a few years ago that says, 'I may be wrong, but I doubt it.'
Ooooh, how things have changed since then. If I could rewrite it now, it would say, 'I may be wrong, please correct me.'
Alhamdulillah for the ability not only to learn but to be open to mistakes and growth. The moment you assume you know everything, you shut the door to learning. You stop being a student. But when it comes to Islam, we are all lifelong lea...See more
The story of Prophet Musa (as) and his teacher in Surah Al-Kahf teaches us a profound lesson: divine wisdom often lies beyond our grasp. Musa, though a prophet, couldn’t bear actions that seemed unjust—until the truth was revealed later.
Similarly, in our lives, we witness hardship, injustice, and confusion. We wish someone could explain Allah’s wisdom in every moment—but we’re not always given that clarity. The test is to trust, not necessarily...See more

A brother who is a professor asked me how my studying for finals was going , I said Alhamdulillah. And I returned the question, 'you must be busy grading papers etc. '

ASA WRWB and Ramadan Mubarak! May Allah make this month when we encounter a re-birth in our Iman which lets us fuel forward towards Sirat ul Mustaqeem and ultimately Allah’s Pleasure.
This Dua’a of the angels exemplifies how much they revere and obey Allah. And as humans, we need to learn and strive, too. We need to acknowledge and respect the Knowledge and Wisdom of Allah and truly submit to the idea of His Totality of Knowledge, which we canno...See more
These verses spell out God's love for us. He created the earth, the seven heavens, brought forth our father Adam as a dignified human being, gifting him with knowledge, asked the angels to prostrate before him, told him to enjoy all of the blessings in heaven with his spouse except one tree, and when Satan deceived them , Allah taught Adam how to repent - He did not leave him alone or not forgive him.
To God belongs the greater example, just a...See more
We should keep reminding ourselves of our belief in ALLAH that He is pure and perfect (from any kind of impurity and imperfection), everything about Him is perfect.. therefore our decree, that is written by Him, is also perfect that encompasses everything that is beneficial for us in both duniya and aakhirah. We are the ones who may not fully comprehend His wisdom and plans, but our task is simply to place our trust in Him wholeheartedly and surr...See more
