Humanity
The surprising trend of converting to Islam around the world: Why people are choosing Islam.
The Turning of Hearts When the sun dipped behind the city skyline, the hum of evening traffic softened, and the mosque courtyard glowed beneath amber lights. Maya stood at the gate, fingers tightened around the strap of her backpack. She wasn’t sure why she’d come back—only that something in her life had been shifting, like pieces rearranging quietly in the background.

The Civilians Who Wouldn’t Leave
A Human Story in the Middle of War The world had changed in a single night. What was once a quiet border village—full of wheat fields, tea stalls, evening laughter, and the rhythm of normal life—was now trapped between two armies exchanging fire. The war had arrived without permission, and the first sound that greeted the sunrise was not the azaan, but a distant boom that shook the earth beneath their feet.

My Mirror Spoke!
I didn’t realise how lost I was until the day my own reflection stopped recognising me. It didn’t judge me, it didn’t comfort me—it just stared back with a quiet disappointment that felt like a truth I could no longer outrun. That was the moment I knew: the person I had been pretending to be was finally collapsing under the weight of who I really was.

11:11 Make a Wish. Top Story - November 2025.
I am a huge believer in angel numbers, signs from the universe etc. About three years ago I really started paying more attention to them, and the signs they were trying to give me. Whenever I would see 11:11 even growing I always made a wish. Over the years I've had many wishes from finding love, to being a model, well know writer the list goes on. These last few months though my greatest wish is to love myself, and become a better version of myself everyday. It's not easy, somedays it feels easier to just fall back into the old me where I am comfortable. Even though I know that version of me no longer suits my life. It almost feels like breaking up with someone you've been in a relationship long term. That version of me is someone I've carried with me for at least 2 decades at this point, and I find it hard to just let her go sometimes.

You can’t please everyone
By all means when you try to be at peace with everyone and do everything right, you soon realize that you can’t please everyone and its just an impossible task. The main reason being that people have different understanding of the world, when you find yourself in the middle trying to appeal to everybody, you almost always become a hypocrite because you have to change your positions based on the person in front of you. On one end you have people who expect you to move a certain way, and on the other end you have another set of people who expect you to move a certain way, this ultimately leads you to have to make a choice and since you try to appeal to everybody, you find yourself switching your opinions one way or the other.

Writing is hard
Writing can be hard work, especially when you are not good with grammar or punctuation and spelling. I need help like Grammarly, but I just wish I were good at writing, knew the grammar rules and everything you want to know. Something sad, I’m bad at math too, but that's a story for another time, but I know a few rules when putting a comma, for example, apples, oranges, bananas and grapes, stuff like that and uppercase letters for the beginning of a sentence and city or country and names, little basic things like that, so pathetic (i don’t know why i’m telling people this).
