A son reflects on his father’s life, lessons, faith, and final days — a deeply personal tribute to Abu Hazur (1934–2025).
I close my eyes, and I open them. I breathe in, and I breathe out. Sometimes I speak, but mostly I stay silent. I spend my day in meetings, handling escalations, assigning work, coaching my team, and coding my dreams – always trying to do
Why We Follow the Fiqh of an Imam
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.

Monday Morning Meanderings – A philosophical look on modern life

And then we (my wife and I) heard about Roghan restaurant and decided to give it a try.
The Wonders of the Limitless Sky
I have a special bond with nature – ocean, trees, forests, mountains, valleys, and streams, all have enchanted me for as long as I can remember. In this blog, however, I will be talking about the limitless sky.
Fighting With Writing
Writing is a battle—sometimes the words flow like a raging river, and other times, they hide in the shadows, refusing to come out.

It makes me wonder—am I really the one writing, or am I just a vessel through which words pour out when they choose?
