Purpose: How the Holy Qur’an Quelled a Personal Crisis
Yusra Dahri, Tilford My teenage years revolved mostly around one, self-absorbed question: what is my purpose? Now, as a Muslim I knew that my purpose was to worship Allah, but unfortunately I was too absorbed into Western individualism to properly accept this answer. Surely that couldn’t be all? I wanted to have an additional cool, special, custom-made purpose. Something that I, and only I, … Read More Purpose: How the Holy Qur’an Quelled a Personal Crisis

Reflecting Upon Celebrations
Iffat Mirza, Raynes Park There’s much to be said about human nature. Every society has built up extensive conversations and discourses surrounding what it means to be human and what humanity means to us.

Salvation, Spiritual Well-Being and The Domestic Ecosystem

Spiritual well-being is directly related to our ability to love … Read More Salvation, Spiritual Well-Being and The Domestic Ecosystem

The Forgiver And The Forgiven
Iffat Mirza, Raynes Park As it is the second Ashra, or ten days, of Ramadan, it is time to consider the Forgiveness. The concept of forgiveness is one of the most fascinating ideas to ponder over.

The cotton candy clouds, and its shapeshifting engulfs me into a daze of tranquillity, yet simultaneously a great curiosity for the sky and its limitlessness. Staring at the motions above me, reignites that there is something much greater than me, than us, in that moment. When looking up at the sky, one would … Read More The Magical Wonders of the Sky

Of Seas and Metaphors
Iffat Mirza, Raynes Park Over the last couple of years of my life I’ve come to two personal realisations. Firstly, that metaphors, I think, make life worth living.

Metaphors allow our inability to explain certain emotions, thoughts, or ideas to become so simple to comprehend with a slight manipulation of … Read More Of Seas and Metaphors
The Earth: Inspires Reflecting On The Divine Creator
Ayesha Naseem, Blackburn A day dedicated to hillwalking, or to a walk in a park full of lush trees, flowers, alongside the noise of chirping birds in the background, or maybe a day out to the beach to hear and feel the waves of the sea. A scenery many would describe as calming. For some it is a time of relaxation, an escape from … Read More The Earth: Inspires Reflecting On The Divine Creator

The Present Moment
Nooresahar Ahmad, Hartlepool ‘No one need wonder that Orlando started, pressed her hand to her heart, and turned pale. For what more terrifying revelation can there be than that it is the present moment? That we survive the shock at all is only possible because the past shelters us on one side and the future on another. But we have no time now for … Read More The Present Moment
