Tell It Tuesday

Give the gift of kind words today. Make an effort to say something pleasing to someone, be it friend, family, or stranger.

Service Sunday

Sunday (or any day) is a great day to serve someone.

Choose a family member or someone in the community. Do a favor for that person(s). It doesn’t have to be anything big. It can be simple such as picking up a few items from the grocery store for someone who can’t get out, babysitting so a mom can nap or catch up on cleaning, or help her do some of the cleaning.

Your efforts will be rewarded inshaAllah.

Second Look Saturday

Take a moment or two to review your Islamic self this past week.

Where have you succeeded?

Where might you improve?

What can you do better?

What are you already doing right?

Use this time to set some self-improvement goals. Write them down in your personal planner.

Friday Face

Concentrate on your appearance, character, and manner today.

Dress in your Jumuah best even if you are not going out (sisters).
Read surah al-Kahf, and make dua’.

Then, relax for a bit, and behave like the wonderful Muslim you are becoming.

Composure Thursday

Use today to evaluate your level of self control and estimate your humility.

With that in mind, proceed thru your day with a lowered sense of importance.

Make effort to restrain actions, feelings, speech, etc., thinking twice before saying or doing.

InshaAllah you will start to see the rewards of this kind of living.

Wordless Wednesday

Did you know that even a smile is sadaqa?

Make a friendly wordless gesture to someone today.  Offer a hug, a hand squeeze, open a door, or make some other unspoken token of peace.
