Hijab Help


I need a more efficient way to hang my hijabs. Right now, my scarves are all wrinkled up together in my drawers, but this is not workin' out for me. I love the way the scarves are hung up in the photo I posted, but I don't know where I can find those hangers. Any suggestions?

Muslim Moment #1

I discovered this great inspirational blog that posts Islamic moments submitted by readers around the world. I thought it would be a great idea to share one with you everyday. Enjoy inshAllah!

Day 27: Yourself and a family member

This is me and my babyy girll, rayy rayy. I love my little sister. We're close alhamduilah and I love being in her life, even when i'm away at college. I think it's so important for sisters to be role models for their younger siblings because they really will look up to you and learn from your actions, so make sure your always doing the "right" thing in front of them. 

Day 26: Something that means a lot to you

I know they're not my fam, but they are so darn cute mashAllah!
My family means a whole lot to me. Especially being away from home makes me appreciate my family. I need to constantly remind myself that family should always come first in my life because life can make you forget that sometimes. 

Day 25: Your Favorite Day

My favorite day of the week is Friday of course! Here are the reasons why I love love love Fridays. First off, it is the most blessed day of the week for Muslims, so I love it first and foremost for that reason. I love going to Friday prayer with my sisters and just enjoying the blessings of that day. Second of all, I love fridays cuz I only have one class :))). Third, I love it because it's chicken wing day. My friends are probably laughing at me right now, because they know how much I love chicken wings :). 

Day 24: Something I Wish I Could Change

I'm the type of person that doesn't do well with negative change. Whether its a small unexpected alteration in my daily schedule or a major life changing event, either way its hard for me to deal with change (on different levels of course depending on the circumstances). What I dislike most about change is the fact that most of the time, you don't see it coming. Sometimes I go to bed, wake up, and suddenly my entire life is different. Clearly, the change is not over night, but it seems that way. Recently, somethings have changed for the worst and I am not taking it well what so ever. If I could make a wish, it would be for people to not change and to always be a part of my life, instead of just disappearing in the blink of an eye. Yes, as crazy as it sounds, I'm making a wish to change, change. I know people change and time goes on, but I'm tired of it, so I'm going to leave this wish as it is and hope for all the good things in my life to remain as they are inshAllah. 

Moozlum Premiere Weekend

If you haven't seen Moozlum yet, then you are truly missing out! I advise all of you to go out and watch this once in a life time movie with your family and friends. I promise, it is well worth it. I saw it last night at the D.C. premiere and I loved it. The best over all experience was at the end of the movie when the the audience broke out into Takbeers. I wish I could experience it all over again. MashAllah, I'm so proud of the Muslim ummah for making this happen and supporting Moozlum director Qasim Basir.
