The Muslims need Self-Representation!!!
I’m takin’ back my voice!!! Don’t speak for me. I’m a man and free. My religion doesn’t give hatemongers the credence to silence me. Having a beard is not a license to detain me, for an hour or three. My Arabic tongue shouldn’t be a reason to be doomed, living a life of the falsely-accused.… Continue reading

Gareth Bryant’s advice on how to treat Women:
Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said, “A woman is like a rib: If you attempt to straighten it, it will break.”.(al-Bukahri/Riyadh-us-Salihin) Much more important than a rib, the Human female can/will break, if you treat a woman, any woman harshly: Don’t attempt to “straighten” or “fix” her-Women don’t need to be “straightened” or “fixed”; rather,… Continue reading

The Enemy Within

Each & every one of us are victims of our own regression. But, we often blind ourselves, denying the self-oppression. We enjoy living the candy-coated lie, constantly keeping us thinking we are not at fault. The truth is that we’re all the greatest culprits, just like bank-robbers, stealing the vault. We don’t want to look… Continue reading
