Khaled writes for Christmased!

Last updated on: December 21, 2011 at 12:45 pm By Kristina ElSayed

Magda Pecsenye, of AskMoxie, Moxi Ville and Christmased!, shared the following link and had this to say about it: Today we have a Muslim perspective on celebrating Christmas. Egyptian-born Khaled ElSayed writes about what it’s like to celebrate Christmas in his intercultural family: The Brady Perspective (Ed. note: The first part of this two-part series written by the author’s wife, a Christmas-celebrating American, is here: “The Modern Hortons”.) I’m so beyond proud it’s hard to put words to what I’m feeling. I am... Read more

Way back in August, Magda asked me to write a post about my Christmas traditions, and how we celebrate with my family. The result: The Modern Hortons? Enjoy! And then share your story. 🙂 Read more

Sharing a Post: ‘Raising Muslim Boys’ on AmericanMuslimMom.com

Last updated on: November 28, 2011 at 10:28 am By Kristina ElSayed

Raising Muslim Boys: Creating a Helping Tradition at Home I can’t tell you how many young Muslim boys I’ve seen while teaching that have no idea how to take care of themselves. They can’t cook any food, do laundry or clean up after themselves. I am so blessed that Naena didn’t raise her boys that way. Khaled is fully capable and willing to do what needs to be done in our home to keep our family running, and he is... Read more

VianneFere shop on Etsy

Last updated on: November 18, 2011 at 9:46 am By Kristina ElSayed

After opening My Islamic Life on Etsy, I populated the shop with prayer outfits. Earlier this year I wanted to offer jewelry that could be customized to say exactly what you wanted. Islamic Phrases, Arabic Names etc. Every time I receive an order, I end up sharing the pictures on Facebook with my family and friends. My Family and Friends immediately started asking for items that were not Islamically themed. They are being asked about their jewelry by their family... Read more

I Need a Do-Over

Last updated on: November 12, 2011 at 10:05 am By Kristina ElSayed

As I sit here in the parking lot waiting for Kate’s art class to finish, I realize that it has been a week since Arafat. This holiday has always been a lesser celebrated occasion in my family, I believe, because we don’t have extended family to feast with living nearby. At my last halaka, Aunt Fay explained that Arafat, and Eid ul Adha was the greater of the two holidays, and it was to be celebrated over four days. In... Read more

Hajj Day Eve

Last updated on: November 2, 2011 at 9:19 am By Kristina ElSayed

Happy Wednesday! Tomorrow is Hajj Day at Pea and Kate’s school and I’ve been on a sewing marathon for the last 2 weeks. It is a blessing to be asked to create beautiful outfits and hijabs for this day. There was a wonderful comment by Romana under the “Books for Eid ul Adha” post that gave a nice list of titles for us to look into. I plan on searching out some of the titles for gift giving occasions and... Read more

My Response to ‘Woe to Foes: The Koran’

Last updated on: October 26, 2011 at 1:01 pm By Kristina ElSayed

I followed the paper trail from a comment on the Eid Books post from the other day that landed me on the blog S-L-M: Peace. The post I read was called Woe to Foes: The Koran. I immediately wanted to read the post. I was hoping that it was not going to be another misinterpretation, but a well thought out approach. I held my breath and dove in. Afterwords, this is what I had to say: Meredith, I followed you... Read more
