Niqab and University Degrees

Asalamalaikum,

Niqabi with a University Degree? Where there is a niqabi will - there is a niqabi way :D. Allah will always show us awesome ways to overcome every hurdle in our path inshallah.

I have two sisters mashallah one a full time niqabi, single mum and another a part-time niqabi and alhamdulilah both are enrolled at uni. They are achieving brilliant results and have had no issues studying at campus. The universities have a very high respect policy and security and exam arrangements are carried professionally with a female invigilator inspecting the face before start-time.

I fell pregnant at 20 so I'm lagging behind a little. What with 4 children over the past 6 years I'm still in my second year of uni and all my studies are on hold for the time being. 

Being a mum of 4, full-time wife, and full-time housecleaner/chef/laundromat/chocolate-off-wall scrubber it is hard for me to attend uni physically so I study online with Macquarie University.

If attending uni and wearing niqab is hard for you, don't give up. Study Online. Tackle Modernity head on.

Alhamdulilah I gave up my previous degree because of its incompatibility with niqab. Alhamduliah that same year Open University Australia ads bloomed out from nowhere.These are the beautiful moments I live for moments where you do something for Allah and think that there is no way some solution comes about and bang. It's almost as if to say "Gotcha! You thought Allah wouldn't find a way for you but here I am". A miracle hits you. Allah will always help us if we sacrifice in this deen.

Biggest Nuissance of Indian Weddings

Biggest Nuissance of Indian Weddings

The biggest nuissance at the south asian wedding event

Is not hall that must be rent

Nor the money that must be spent

Nor the invites that must be sent

Nor the rituals and other content

It is the old Indian aunty who doesn’t repent

Frustration at her I must vent

To ruin the fun is her advent

Her opposition to Allah and his blessed guidelines

Sends emotions flaring several times

Her body is filled with poison mines

Verbally ready to blast at anyone who - wishes to follow a halal or two

Haram and sin is her idea of a great function

She helps satan at every junction

Trapped in the ignorant delusion of culture

She screeches around like a hungry vulture

She rips the hijab off the head of the bride

She tightens the fabric around the groom’s hide

She pushes the imams and sheikhs violently aside

In showing off wealth she takes pride

For freemixing of genders she takes a side

Walks around with an arrogant stride

Makes comments mean and snide

For the angels to curse the doors open wide

She makes the couple cry and ruins their dream

Of following the Sahaba so pure and clean

Some wish she were an ant small and blue

Then someone would stumble on her with their shoe

May Allah protect her from me and you

May Allah guide her to the path that is true

Boys' Issues

Boys' Issues

He creeps out of his room late at night

His stealthy footsteps give you a fright

Quietly you begin to follow

With a heavy heart, a guilt you swallow

He makes his way through another door

You thinks he’s studying you’re not sure

Peeping into the room he is seated

You find yourself lost and defeated

There on the screen in the room so dark

You view strong images naked stark

Behind his head you are shocked to view

Violence and nudity there ensue

Where did your parenting skills fail

Somewhere deep your soul begins to wail

You bite your fist and stifle a cry

You thought you raised him modest and shy

You didn’t anticipate this awful test

When you happily brought him to the west

You thought you could get away without preaching

Neglecting Islam and all it’s moral teaching

Realisation dawns bitter as gourd

You didn’t instil in him fear of your Lord

Now who are you going to blame

You hang your head low in shame

Confirmed are unspoken fears

You bow down to your lord in tears
