What if everyone was doing the best that they could?

Pause for a moment and really sit with that.
What if your parents were doing the best they could with the knowledge, emotional tools, and experiences they had?
What if your partner, your ex, your friends — even the people who hurt you — were doing the best they could at that time?

When we adopt this belief, something powerful begins to shift.
We start to see that much of what we’ve carried — the anger, the blame, the disappointment — no longer needs to weigh us down. Because from this place of understanding, compassion naturally begins to grow.

This doesn’t mean that we excuse pain or erase boundaries.
It means we choose to see others as human — limited, learning, and still deserving of grace.
It means our boundaries can be built from love and self-respect, not mistrust or fear.

And then… we turn that same compassion inward.
Because if everyone is doing the best they can — that includes you.

The version of you who didn’t know better.
The version of you who reacted out of pain, fear, or survival.
The version of you who’s learning, healing, and trying again today.

You’ve always been doing the best you could with the tools, awareness, and faith you had in that moment.
And that realisation can be deeply freeing.

So today, take a breath.
Look at your past — and the people in it — through softer eyes.
Offer yourself the same mercy you would wish for from Allah, The Most Compassionate.

💭 What would change for you if you truly believed that everyone — including you — was doing the best they could?

What if “sin” didn’t have to mean guilt, shame, or being unforgiven?

I recently learned that the word sin comes from the ancient Greek hamartanō, an archery term meaning “to miss the mark.” 🎯

This completely changed how I see my mistakes.
Sin isn’t about being bad — it’s about being out of alignment with your values, your faith, or the life Allah has written for you.

When I reframe it this way, I can come back into alignment — kindly, gently, and with compassion, instead of beating myself up.

Does this perspective resonate with you? 💛
How would it change the way you treat yourself when you stumble?

Stress isn’t the problem — your mindset about stress is.

If you believe stress is debilitating, your body reacts: blood pressure rises, sleep is disrupted, mood shifts.
But if you believe stress is a challenge, an opportunity to grow, your body responds differently: blood pressure stabilises, sleep improves, and you feel satisfaction and wellbeing. SubhanAllah. ✨

The beautiful thing? Mindset can be taught. You can learn to shift your perspective, and so can others.

In Islam, we’re reminded that there is good in every situation. What if we truly believed that — and actively looked for it? How would our bodies, minds, and sense of self change?

💭 Does this resonate with you? Share your thoughts below — and let’s start training our hearts and minds to see the good in everything.

When I was around eight years old, our front door was graffitied by the National Front — a far-right group at the time.

Our family was visibly Muslim. My father, a brown immigrant. My mum and us girls wearing hijab and trousers under our dresses. We looked different.

I remember two feelings: shock — that someone could do something so outrageous.
And then defiance — we’ll show them who we are.

My parents raised us on the stories of the Prophet ﷺ, how he and the early Muslims were treated in Mecca. They stayed consistent in their values, rooted in faith, until slowly hearts began to soften and Islam began to spread.

Not long after that incident, we started playing with kids from a new family on our street. My mum mentioned in passing that their father was part of the National Front. Weeks later, we were in each other’s homes.

Their dad would ask me questions about Islam, and I’d answer as best I could. One Ramadan, when I refused a biscuit because I was fasting, he was so struck by my response that he pressed a pound coin into my hand.

Looking back, I realise: most hatred and fear come from ignorance. From focusing on differences instead of our shared humanity.

That experience taught me the power of a positive heart-set — one shaped by trust in Allah, love, and kindness. And it gave me a deeper appreciation for my parents, who instilled in us the heart-set of the early Muslims: to stay rooted, to trust Allah, and to believe that love can win out over fear.

So as flags go up across the UK today, I’m reminded: our role is not to shrink, but to shine.

How do you hold onto love when the world tells you to fear?

✨ You’ve done all the things — the books, the yoga, the breathwork, the diet changes… but still, the heaviness lingers.

That’s not because you’re not trying hard enough.
It’s because willpower and surface-level habits can only go so far when the roots of anxiety, overthinking, and old wounds live deep in the unconscious mind.

When I finally worked with someone who helped me access and rewire those unconscious patterns, that’s when things shifted.

Now the yoga, breathwork, and routines actually work — because the heavy lifting was done where it truly mattered: inside.

💡 Sometimes your breakthrough isn’t in doing more… it’s in going deeper.

👉 If you’re ready to explore tools like NLP and hypnosis that create change at the root, I’d love to show you how.

Happy birthday to my mama, one of the greatest loves of my life. Thank you for being you—lover of history, smoothies, travel, and Turkish soaps.

Thank you for your endless love, for always having my back, and for believing in me no matter what stage of life I was in or what I was going through. You always trusted that I’d find my way and come out on top.

Thank you for showing me what it truly means to be a Muslim—a beautiful role model whose face shines with the glow of Tahajjud. You’ve set the bar high on how to navigate this world as a Muslim woman and as a mother.

Love you to pieces, Mama. You are one in a million.

What began as whispered du'as in the quiet hours of the night has, by Allah’s grace, unfolded into a journey I could never have imagined.

Sound Heart Coach was born from love, faith, and a longing to serve — and today, we celebrate two years of healing, growth, and divine alignment.
Over the past two years, I’ve had the honour of walking alongside incredible women as they broke through emotional barriers, reconnected with their purpose, and deepened their relationship with Allah ﷻ. To witness their transformations has been nothing short of awe-inspiring.

And I, too, have transformed. Every soul I’ve encountered has shaped me, stretched me, and brought me closer to the heart of this work.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this:
Healing is not a destination.

It’s a sacred, ongoing process — of letting go, of coming back to intention, of realigning with our values and our Creator. Every step peels back another layer, revealing new depths and divine wisdom — if we are brave enough to surrender.
But today’s celebration also carries weight. It’s impossible to mark this moment without remembering our beloved brothers and sisters in Palestine. Freedom feels overdue. The pain feels endless. And yet — I believe in Allah’s promise.

✨ Indeed, with hardship comes ease.
So we continue — committed to doing the work, to showing up, and to helping Muslim women rise with clarity, courage, and strength. So that we rise — as an Ummah.
And by the next birthday, insha’Allah, may we witness a free Palestine!!
🤍
