WAKE UP.

Fire in London, shooting in Virginia, 100,000 civilians trapped in Raqqa and this is not even in the past month. Human blood has become cheap and somehow we have become okay with labelling everyone and everything as "collateral damage". In the midst of all the politics, we have forgotten the "small" issues- how can we expect these absolute pricks we call a "government" to lead us to any success? It's foolish to believe we live in a genuine democracy and foolish to believe that these people sitting on millions of pounds will allow change to come about. Pray for the world.

6 Benefits of Not Listening to Music

So, this post may seem a little strange as it's just music right? It is all around us and we can never quite get away from it. We've grown up with it and never been without it, it's practically a part of life. If you've never made the conscious effort/decision to stop listening to music, then this will be completely new to you, however, I hope it will be of benefit. Just to give you a little background, you could say I was brought up with music. When I was younger and the parents weren't home, we used to blast Pop Party (if you know you know), my idea of fun was singing along to karaokes on Youtube and I knew the lyrics of EVERY SINGLE SONG OUT THERE. I couldn't walk anywhere unless I had my earphones and music at the gym was a no brainer. I was always aware that music was haram (forbidden) and I never understood why up until recently because "it's only music" right?! Music was a massive part of my life and I found so much joy in listening to it, h...

Wellness, Mindfulness & Madness with @BouAzizLifestyle

When you think of fitness, you automatically think of the gym, weights and a sculpted physique. Up until recently, I hadn't seen much focus on the importance of mindfulness and wellness- all of which contributes to creating a healthy mindset. After being tested with hardship, I found peace in meditation. This wasn't easy at first as it was frustrating due to my mind thinking erratically, however, it has helped me be able to watch my emotions and control my reactions. It is definitely a journey and there is so much to learn and practice. Below are a list of questions and answers I asked brother Mohamed Bouaziz- an advocate of mindfulness, movement, and all things positive. Upon coming across his instagram profile @bouazizlifestyle, I was intrigued and Alhamdulillah he was able to provide me with an insight into his world. Definitely check out his profile, it is unique and a breath of fresh air! "Bismillah. I just want to say thank you for giving me the oppo...

A Levels, Results Day, Uni- Is it worth it?

If you are in 6th form or college, you will no doubt have heard your teachers bang on about how university is the key to success and how your life is pretty much set if you get a degree. I remember when I was in year 13, I felt bombarded with information on courses, loans etc and I honestly believed that a degree was the only way I could get where I wanted to be. I WAS SO WRONG. 6th Form was probably the most confusing time of my life yet and most of it was down to the fact that I was scared to take a different route simply because everyone else was taking the same route. I ended up applying to study Law with Criminal Justice at Brunel University as a result of not getting into any legal apprenticeship schemes. I cannot stress how beneficial apprenticeships are, if you can get into your career via an apprenticeship- do it! You learn practical skills so you have a head start against those at uni, you get paid and you are debt free. They are becoming very common, however, they are c...
