I am here for Friends

About Me

what to say? i am a servant of the Most High. end of story.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

i want to meet steadfast people with curious minds, poetic souls, and bohemian hearts; those who live fearlessly and on fire. i'm interested in those who balance deen with dunya without compromising themselves, those who are in constant pursuit of the truth and who strive to live that truth everyday, da'wah simply by the example of their own lives.

one of the myriad reasons that i admire malcolm x is the spiritual growth he underwent in his life, to have been a sinner and then to crawl out from that dark place to become a beacon of hope for the world. i want to meet those who are on a similar path, leaving behind colorful pasts, fighting the ultimate jihad daily, striving to be better humans.

you wouldn't ask why the rose that grew from the concrete had damaged petals. on the contrary, we would all celebrate its tenacity. we would all love its will to reach the sun. well, we are the roses, this is the concrete, and these are my damaged petals. don't ask me why. ask me how. -tupac shakur

Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves; and, under a just God, can not long retain it. -Abraham Lincoln


it is very nearly impossible, after all, to become an educated person in a country so distrustful of the independent mind. -james baldwin
