﷽
My goal for this podcast is to help all of you become better Muslims and to make habits that we keep with us for the rest of our lives.
As Muslims, we are a marginalized part of western society. Many of our viewpoints have been influenced by western ideologies and in turn go against Islam's teachings. Let's dismantle this and look at everything in its rawest form. From the Islamic POV.
How to become a better Muslim (Improving Ibadah, Islamic Knowledge, and yourself, wearing Hijab, book recs, prayer, and more.)
We all have this question of how to become a better muslim. It's something that we want and are trying to actively attain, so here I give a few tips (and a lot of book recommendations) in order to help you along your journey. Islam can be a hard thing if we make it out to be, so the important thing is to look at Islam in a light that we know our hearts will be content with. Allah SWT will help you through this journey, all you need to do is try. As He says "Take one step towards me, I'll take ten steps towards you. Walk towards me, I'll run towards you."
Here is a list of the books I recommend in this episode. If you aren't able to buy any of these, please DM me on Instagram (my user is @thedesiroyal) I will try to get back to you as fast as I can with a link to a free ebook/PDF version.
