One thing I struggle with is linking my writing with my ultimate purpose as a Muslim and this post really validated my thoughts about the need for stories, especially Muslim stories and just the freedom we all have as humans, for self expression, even better when it is linked with the intention for sadaqah jariyah.
Yes, Ameena! ♥️ All of us have talents. Just as each of the Companions ﵂ were known for certain things, so too can be unique in our devotion to the deen.
First, I am excited to see you here, Hannah! I loved your Red short story I came across and I'm glad to see you're writing more. And yeah, I wish I would have remembered to make sajdah shukr when I finished my first novel last year, I just sat at my desk saying 'subhanallah'.

Asiyah, how kind of you! subhanʾAllah, I’m so glad you liked Red. That was one of my Camp NaNo pieces and it was a delight to write.
Saying “subhanʾAllah” is still good, mashaʾAllah! Sometimes we’re so stunned, we don’t know what to do.
