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

My St. John’s University Adventure (trust me, this is funny!!!):
This is how my story goes: Back in 2011, I was going to an Islamophobia lecture at St. John’s University, by John Starling, an instructor at the Foundation for Knowledge and Development, in New York City. When I got there, the posters for the event were all gone. And, no one seemed to know where… Continue reading

Gareth Bryant’s Keys to Happiness:
Having hope in what we can’t yet see. Appreciation, for all of what could be. Patience, upon all the many tests which lie ahead. Piety, always ensuring that your heart isn’t dead. Incorporating respect & love in your daily-routine. Never become ungrateful, nor treat people mean. Educate others about Allah’s mercy & respite. Set an… 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

Some Brief Islamic-History (Islam’s female version of the “Dream-Team”):
Author’s note: I’ve written this exclusively to address the fallacies of people whom are Islamophobic, who state that Islam has no respect for women, and that it’s even religiously-sanctioned in Islam to mistreat women, all of which are complete not at all true. However, ironically, unfortunately, sadly, there are Muslims out there who attempt to… Continue reading

The Reality of this Mundane-Life:
Close your eyes and let your imagination take you away: You’re walkin’ down a very narrow hallway. You can only move in two directions, either backwards or forwards. There’s a fire behind you that’s catching up to you, by the second. In front of you is the way outside, where you can escape this fire.… Continue reading

Some Brief Islamic-History (The Rightly-Guided Khulafa’)
These new posts of mine, which will be posted periodically, which will be labeled “Some Brief Islamic-History” will be, what I hope to be, many educational articles about the history of Islam. And, by history of Islam, I really mean from the time from Adam, to the present-day, because, based upon Islamic-Texts, Islam didn’t begin… Continue reading

My thoughts on Autumn:
Author’s note: At the beginning of each season this year (according to the Gregorian-Calendar), I plan to release a poem about each season-I’ve written several poems about the seasons, particularly the four classic temperate seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Each of these seasons represents different stages of existence, in this Material-Existence of ours,… Continue reading
