The message of Eid extends far beyond celebration—it is a call to recognise our shared humanity.

In this powerful feature, Imam Dr A. Rashied Omar reflects on how the values of Hajj and Eid-ul-Adha challenge racism, xenophobia, prejudice, and division, while promoting justice, compassion, and human dignity.

A timely reminder that faith should inspire us to build bridges, strengthen communities, and stand together against discrimination.

As we gather for the blessed day of Jumu'ah, let us take a moment to reflect, renew our intentions, and strengthen our connection with Allah ﷻ.

May this sacred day bring peace to our hearts, barakah to our homes, and guidance to our paths. Let us remember one another in our du'as and strive to carry the spirit of Jumu'ah throughout the week.

"Indeed, the mercy of Allah is near to the doers of good." (Qur'an 7:56)

Motivation with Life Coach Zaf Nasri Khan

You can time travel in business by copying someones blueprint, this can save you so much time to focus on improving in other aspects of your life.

Fast doesn't Last....because fast lacks clarity of direction. Once you get focused, that's when speed is your greatest ally!

Speed should be the rocket fuel, not the steering wheel.
