We’re too quick to seek the perfect relationship. One that consists of them texting you in the middle of the night or randomly sending you flowers or staring at your beauty. We’re too quick to want the cute little fights that bring each other closer and yada yada yada. A marital relationship is…

The Prophet SAW said: “May Allaah grant mercy to a man who gets up at night and prays, and wakes up his wife, and if she refuses, he sprinkles water in her face; may Allaah grant mercy to a woman who gets up at night and prays, and wakes up her husband, and if he refuses, she sprinkles water in his face.‖

What an embarrassing/kind of funny conversation with my friend...
So, she is one of my African American non-Muslim friends, and she wants me to put a hijab on her for the Hijabi Monologues audition...
so I said (through texts)
Me: no problemo, do you know what you're wearing on Monday? I'll bring a hijab that matches with your outfit
Friend: Ohh right if I wear it I have to wear the kinda clothes we wore in the show, I'll see what I can find out most likely I'll be wearing black
Me: okay, if you're black, any hijab color will match: let's meet at 3

She is so sweet and she realized I made a typing mistake! : P :X

Ibn al-Qayyim (rahimahullaah) says:
And the cure for this deadly illness (i.e. love before marriage) is for the person that is afflicted to realize that this love is only due to his/her own delusions and ignorance. So upon such a person is to first and foremost strengthen…

The American political system is so oppressive, particularly towards women.
I am studying political science, with a concentration of law and policy, and minoring in gender studies. My gender and politics class has really helped me in accumulating and strengthening my ideas in order to tell people (specifically,who tell me that Islam oppresses women), that if you want to know about REAL OPPRESSION...

A story from when I was in High School...
I remember in high school, (by the way, I went to an Islamic school) of this particular situation that I was told about by my religion teacher. (BTW—she is the sweetest person, sighhh I miss her!).
