The Bridge Between Deen and Dunya Ft. Umar Gana

In this episode, we dive into what it really means to live a life where deen and dunya coexist. We talk about Qur'an memorization, discipline, consistency, and building the right mindset to thrive in both worlds. You'll hear practical tips on: * "Staying consistent, even when it feels hard" * "Developing discipline without burning out" * "Learning from failure and adopting a growth mindset" * "Surrounding yourself with people who elevate you" This conversation is about showing that intentional effort, good systems, and the right mindset can help you excel in your dunya while keeping your akhira in mind.

Wearing Hijab: Modesty In Today’s World Ft. Salma Babayo

In this episode, Salma and I share our journeys, the challenges of navigating modesty in today’s world, and how friendships, social media, and everyday life shape our experience.

Who do you want to be in 2026?

In this episode, I reflect on moments, big and small, joyful and challenging-that have shaped who I am today. From unexpected lessons to quiet realizations, explore how growth isn't linear, how identity is complex, and how our past experiences quietly guide the way we move forward. As we step into the new year, I invite you to consider not just what you want to achieve, but who you want to be. Let your intentions, not just your goals, guide your path. Full Poem: days will come and you will ask“who am i?” years will pass and you will ask”where am i going?” you’ll ask in mistakes and failed affiliations  you’ll ask in regret and anticipation  when all is said and done you will see yourself in the mirror that is passion and in what lies your satisfaction  maybe your identity even lies in your contradictions sometime,somewhere,somehow your eyes will see this journey  for what it truly is no destination exists  if the ride is ordinary  so drive slowly on this path before you’re done and it breaks your heart  💓Follow along @whereamigoing.pod [https://www.instagram.com/whereamigoing.pod?igsh=YW1udTU4c2RoY2N2&utm_source=qr] for more episodes
