Update.....

As Salamu Alaikum,
JOB: So I just want to give you an update on my situation. I am still unemployed sorta. Insha'Allah I will start a part time work from home position on Friday. So I don't know what happens after training, but I know i'm scheduled to train and that should pay a little something, insha'Allah.

Money: SubhanAllah I have none. my rent is late and I have had to make payment arrangements on everything. Insha'Allah I can get some sadiqah from the Masjid. You wanna hear something that's crazy? I have such a hard time asking for things. So I wrote a note to give to the Imam asking for sadiqah and just chickened out. I mean I was going to hand it to him on tuesday when I handed him my lesson for my arabic lesson, nope, not me, I chickened out and stuffed the note in my bra no doubt. May Allah grant me some courage, ameen. But I am selling Hijab pins (see above) now, let me know if your interested, I do have pay pal (fullycoveredevents@gmail.com) and I can ship some out to you. I also put a post on my cafe mom page about selling the pins and a sister sent me $25 for the sake of Allah. I was so choked up I didn't know what to say or do, Alhamdulillah for good muslims right?

Family: My oldest boy has started the K12 program, that allow you to attend public school from your home. Masha'Allh he really seem to like it and is doing well. Also, my oldest boy has decided to "look" like a muslim with the thob and kufi, I couldn't pay him to wear that before. Also he announced to me on Sunday that his islamic name is Yusef, and he has already directed his friends at the Masjid to call him that, Masha'Allah. And this young man has also given me the name of Fatimah! Masha'Allah he is really growing up man!

I have had time to do all those things that I felt like I couldn't do when I was working. So I have been practing putting crownrows in my daugthers hair, I have also been attend Quran classes and trying to learn a few more short surahs. I have also been teaching my younger two children to recgonize the alphabet. So I do manage to keep busy, I just wish I was making money at the same time.

But Alhamdulillah, what can I say I am still able to make salat and that is great!


Above you will see a few pics of the hijab pins for sale, insha'Allah, they range from $4 to $7 dollars. Let me know what you think....

poetic muslim said...

oh and btw , yes I know what you mean about shynesss, I am like that as well, I hate asking money from anyone (btw I have been in a similiar sitaution of needing money), I really do , it feels awkward and you feel nervous and shy . inshallah , you will have to have faith that you will have money in the future , you don't know how but by allah it will happen .
one last piace of advice , DO NOT THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU DO NOT WANT ,INSTEAD THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU DO WANT ....all you have to do from their is take the first step to try to achieve it , then inshallah through positive thinking you can get what you want and offcourse only by the will of allah .:)

If Safa trusts you, then I trust you, sister. Reading your simple words brought tears to my eyes. Allah ease your troubles, dear. Where is your email address? Am I missing something?
