Dear physician,
Medical training idealizes self-sacrifice:
- Skip lunch
- Hold your bladder
- Miss family events
- Work sleep deprived
- Don’t call off when you’re ill
- Not having time to schedule you own medical appointments
Is it any surprise that after years of conditioning taking care of your needs feels selfish?
Perhaps the answer isn't to choose between success and relationships, but to pursue a success that serves a purpose beyond yourself.
Everyone’s complaining about inflation and the struggling economy. Meanwhile, Apple’s most expensive iPhone yet, the iPhone DUO, sells out in 15 minutes, with deliveries pushed to January.
Apparently, the economy is struggling… but not everyone’s wallet knows it

A final wish from Bollywood actor Mushtaq Ahmed Khan is being widely shared online and it is deeply moving.
According to reports, his will stated that he had already given his three daughters their full Islamic share of his property.
He reportedly left the remaining property to his wife and two sons, while setting aside one kanal of land as a trust for a mosque, with the wish that a mosque be built there.
The will was reportedly handed to Imam Muhammad Owais of Bilal Mosque in Mumbai to be read before the funeral.
His eldest son is also reported to have said that after his father’s burial, he would lay the foundation of the mosque and build it with his own money so that the reward would continue to reach his father.
A lasting legacy is not always measured in wealth. Sometimes, it is measured by what continues to benefit others after we are gone.

وجهة نظري الاطفال لايصلحون للسفر ولا يفهمون معناه حتى لو ارادوا ذلك .
إلا اذا كان للعائلة شقه او بيت او مزرعه ، تستقر فيها العائلة ويتأقلم الأطفال على المكان .
أما انك تعابلهم من فندق لفندق ومن سيارة لسيارة ومن مطعم لمطعم او من سوق لسوق او من مكان لمكان ،
لاهم بيستانسون ولا انت/ ـي بتركلسين وخسارة فلوس على الفاضي.
يومين في فندق في بلادك توفي الغرض .

Allah does not want us to be angels. Allah wants strugglers. Messy humans trying their best.

Brothers, don't ever equate your worth with the money you make.
Yes, you have to find a way to pay your family's bills. And I know that is getting harder and harder.
But beyond that, money doesn't equal worth. Don't let potential partners, society, red pill bros or anyone equate your worth with a dollar amount.
Your character, justice, skills, Deen and kindness are worth way more than that.

Social media has created a whole new brand of performative Islam. Some people just don't know how to be normal anymore. Everything is a show.

Imam Ash-Shafi said:
“The most difficult deeds are three; to be generous when you have little, to fear Allah when alone and to speak the truth to someone from whom you have hope for a worldly benefit or fear a punishment.”

Please marry someone who is close to your level of imaan and your halal–haram ratio. Don’t marry a “project” thinking you’ll fix them. That mindset doesn’t build marriage, it builds resentment and ends in divorce

Carl Jung believed life truly begins at 40, viewing the first four decades as "research"—a preparatory phase focused on building an ego, establishing a career, and meeting societal expectations. The second half of life, starting around 40, is for inward exploration, authenticity, and fulfilling one’s true self (individuation) rather than pursuing external validation.

The evidence is clear: deactivating Facebook and Instagram improves our emotional state.
🔸This study confirms what we see in clinical practice: deactivating social media leads to a measurable boost in happiness and a reduction in anxiety.
🔸Whether it is the break from cortisol-inducing social comparisons or the reduction in news-induced stress, the brain benefits significantly from the silence.
🔸The emotional gains are significant for those over 35 and young women, respectively.
🔸Sometimes the most effective 'prescription' for mental well-being is simply clicking 'deactivate.'
🔸A digital break is not just a trend; it is a necessary reset for emotional regulation and brain health.
