Aisha (RA) book is coming soooooon and I’m so excited!
إن شاء الله
Incident of the Camel, Slander, tough times and regrets 😥
But also…
Life with the Prophet ﷺ, romance, spreading knowledge, school of Aisha (RA), her students, preserving the Sunnah, correcting people, plentiful charity, annual Hajj, humility🤩🥺
If it wasn’t controversial I’d say it’d make an amazing movie
There’s a full hero’s journey in her life

At age 40, what I would advise the 20 year-old me about #LIFE?
18 LIFE LESSONS:
🧵
1. Love:
Don’t lean in to feelings of attraction that you have towards people you can’t/shouldn’t be with. Certain types of love are like a madness that comes over you.
It can’t end well.
2. Take care of your body:
Sleep, nourish, exercise, relax, take care of the body Allah gave you. It’ll take you far if you allow it to!
1: Keep Ramadan real simple.
Clear unnecessary things off your calendar. Have a number of core Ibadat & ease yourself into the rhythm of Ramadan in the 1st week. What went well last year & what didn’t? How could you manage better this time?
2: Set up automated Sadaqah!
This is one of the easiest things you can do to have peace of mind that your reward is secured insha Allah for Lailatul Qadr and all of the days of Ramadan, when rewards are multiplied: Go to launchgood.com/teamramadan to set up automated giving
3: Prepare 2 types of fixed prayer spaces at home
One communal prayer space, and one personal prayer space. Place all essential things you need for your prayer & du'a times right there: mus-haf, du'a book, water, dates & nuts, notebook, Qur'an stand, Qur'an translation etc.
Someone really should write a letter to the Queen inviting her to Islam before the inevitable happens. That’s what the Prophet ﷺ would do if he were here.
To Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth I, monarch of the United Kingdom.
Peace be upon the followers of guidance….
10 things I’ve learned about PRODUCTIVITY as a Muslim
🧵
1. Mortality Motivation
You only have a finite number of years on earth. Choose the pain of discipline over the pain of regret. Pray to God to guide your way, say Bismillah and get started…
2. Foundational Habits:
X hours sleep, morning dhikr, daily Qur’an, foods high in protein & healthy fats, regular resistance exercise, make you way more productive & focused. Identify your foundational habits & schedule them in as a must. Create processes that boost productivity
Ideas for .@DouglasKMurray and pals to win back Europe from the Muslims🧕🏼they fear so much and prevent its demise:
1. Start going Church and kickstart mass revival of Christianity, moving ppl away from atheism & meaningless ideologies. (Whaddya mean you don’t want to go Church?)
2. Encourage a mass baby boom amongst non-Muslims consistently for multiple generations (encourage women to settle down younger, have more babies, revive marriage even. It means discouraging alternative lifestyles and materialistic concerns about having big families).
3. Invent a new religion, with a scripture as compelling as the Qur’an anchored by deeply embedded truths that people are willing to live and fight for, even give up their lives for. (Yep- a doomed project)
