Assalamu alaykum wa rahmatuLlah wa barakaatuh.
Trust your week is off to a great start.
We are so excited this week! (To be honest, we are always excited, lol). This week, it is different though because WE HIT 100 SUBSCRIBERS! One of us thinks this calls for a celebration (any reason for a party! lol) while the other is not sure. Please vote and help us decide below!
We are also itching to share the resources we dug up for you this week!
Let’s get it started in here! If you sang that bit, your heart needs polishing. 🤣
We present this week’s Ibadah Plug! 🥁🥁🥁
This is the most underrated Arabic program in the world! WHAT! Okay, okay we might be exaggerating but one of us has been on this journey for well over 3 years and she can tell you for free that Ustadh Jubril Alao is the REAL DEAL!
We can now confidently say that Arabic is not the problem, the way it is taught is where the issue lies. It doesn’t matter where you are on your Arabic journey, if all you come for is an opportunity to experience what Arabic lessons should be like, it will be worth it! There is now a study cation tucked inside! Just look at how these people were balling in Senegal! Ya Razzaq, I know you can do this for one of us!
One of us had to rewrite the entire part because the other one was editing it and felt attacked. But let us be honest, it is a new year, those old excuses will no longer work, we have to get started on this journey one day no? We heard from somewhere once (Y’all can Google it because we cannot remember where) that developing good habits is the key to getting things done and that is why we are recommending this amazing workbook put together by Star Dr Dr. Tasneem Alkiek our absolute fave to help you with this. One of us even has a printed a copy at home! What are you waiting for?
Are we the only ones who feel like Yasmin Mogahed is related to us? I mean it is possible that we are family yeah? We need you to really think about it. Plus with every new trip in Africa, we feel like she is inching closer to home (Haters will not agree..lol). Anyway, she is coming to South Africa and we have only one thing to say Be there.. Oh two things actually, sorry! The rest of the details, you will find on the flyer.
It is time to get serious! Remember our post on How Garri made into my heart ? It was centered around the same theme but this article is awesome because it digs into the signs of the diseases of the heart and if that is not scary in a I want to know more typa way, we don’t know what is. If there is one thing you should protect with everything it is your heart. We will never get tired of quoting this Hadith.
Verily, in the body is a piece of flesh which, if sound, the entire body is sound, and if corrupt, the entire body is corrupt. Truly, it is the heart.

There is always more but we are going to stop here. Plus, the one of us that is editing’s hand hurts. 😂
Till next week, in shaa Allah.
We leave you in Allah’s care,
Us At Ibadah Plug.
