Why We Follow the Fiqh of an Imam 

Posted on September 18, 2025September 18, 2025 by Amad

Between the Qur’an’s 6,236 verses and nearly 10,000 rigorously authentic hadith, Muslims face a vast ocean of guidance — sometimes overlapping, sometimes appearing to conflict. How then does one believer decide which narration to act upon? This is where Uṣūl al-Fiqh becomes indispensable. It is the science that explains why one hadith is preferred over another and ensures consistency in deriving rulings. Without it, Islam risks fragmenting into personal interpretations based on translations and isolated texts.

The Fifth Discipline – My Book Notes

Posted on July 25, 2025July 25, 2025 by Amad

In The Fifth Discipline, Peter Senge introduces a powerful framework for building learning organizations through five interconnected disciplines: Personal Mastery, Mental Models, Shared Vision, Team Learning, and the central pillar—Systems Thinking. While the book is dense and often repetitive, its insights into systems thinking, feedback loops, and the concept of leverage points are invaluable.

Here are my book notes from the book.

Authentic Pakistani Food in Kuwait – Roghan Restaurant Experience

Posted on May 30, 2025May 30, 2025 by Amad

I love Pakistani food because I find it to have multiple flavors. Previously, we used to go to Yaadgaar Restaurant in Farwaniya, but like most Pakistani restaurants, it was closed. After that, we tried many restaurants promising Pakistani cuisine and taste, but they were either not up to the mark taste-wise or ambience-wise. And then we (my wife and I) heard about Roghan restaurant and decided to give it a try.

Fighting With Writing 

Posted on February 5, 2025February 5, 2025 by Amad

Writing is a battle—sometimes the words flow like a raging river, and other times, they hide in the shadows, refusing to come out. Fighting With Writing is that frustrating struggle, where thoughts and sentences refuse to cooperate. It makes me wonder—am I really the one writing, or am I just a vessel through which words pour out when they choose?
