Digging Deeper Into the Prophet’s Wisdom

Last updated on: July 31, 2013 at 1:20 pm By Admin GrowMama

Over two years after my father’s passing, I reflected on the famous saying of the Prophet Muhammad, in which he advises us on what we can do for our loved ones after they have returned to Allah. In the hadith, Abu Hurayrah narrated that Allah’s Messenger said, “When a human being dies, all of his deeds are terminated except for three: an ongoing sadaqah (charity), a knowledge (of Islam) from which others benefit, and a righteous child who makes dua...

Never Too Late

Last updated on: July 4, 2013 at 8:13 pm By Admin GrowMama

It’s never too late in life. At 26, one child and a eight years of marriage later, I have graduated college with my bachelor’s degree. The decision to begin my academic career post family life was not an easy one. I decided to enroll my daughter at the college’s daycare so I could attend classes full time. I worked hard trying to find a system that made it easy for me to balance housework and studying. I scheduled Friday’s off... Read more

Timeless Tales

Last updated on: July 31, 2013 at 1:21 pm By Admin GrowMama

A few weeks ago, as I prepared my two year old for bed, I decided to skip his usual truck book and switch it up with some quick storytelling. As I lay him down and looked into his sleepy, glazed eyes, I opened up with a short re-telling of the story of the Elephant and Abraha. My little one gazed at me with wide open eyes, enthralled, silent, listening intently. The next morning, on the way to school, my young... Read more

Grow Mama Blast From The Past: Pause

Last updated on: July 4, 2013 at 8:15 pm By Admin GrowMama

If I interrupt this silent reverence With a hurry up, come, what do you see? I divert her quiet moment with nature, And point it instead at me. At screens, voices, more stimulation, Questions, answers and explanations But what really matters, what makes it real, Is that here she learn to listen and feel. Touching the textures and rhythms of creation This reverence may one day lead to worship One day she may hear the pulsing glorification From rocks under... Read more

My Purple Carpet

Last updated on: July 31, 2013 at 1:23 pm By Admin GrowMama

I was told when I first got married, that my relationship with Allah would be different. That I would find a new “normal” and get accustomed to it. And that after having kids, a woman doesn’t have the time she used to have, to sit down for hours reading the Quran, or get up and pray every night while everyone else sleeps. But no one ever told me... Read more
