First and foremost, Eid Mubarak. May Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) accept your fast and prayers and guide you to your abode in Paradise inshaAllah!
Ok,for those of you on facebook you will indeed know that i was on a desert safari, which was absolutely fantastic! Couldn't have asked for a more better experience to actually get a taste of the real Emiratis and their lives prior to them finding the oil. The other thing that this safari made me realise, is how tough the conditions were all those years ago and for once i felt like i was living in the time of the Prophet (peace be upon him). But SubhanAllahu, just thinking that they would go for days on those camels and in that heat is absolutely amazing! I went on the camel for about 5 minutes and my back is bruised because of the saddle! Go figure!
So tomorrow, my long weekend is over and i am back to work but i have a few things i am looking forward to. One is the next set of holidays... looool getting too comfortable lazing around but the other thing i am really looking forward to is starting my Islamic Studies Course online with Sunni Path. It starts at the end of this month and for once i am excited to get back to doing something useful again. I was contemplating on continuing my masters in Islamic Studies (rather than the boring Educational Leadership that i was doing). But now that i have found these courses, i can't think of anything better to be doing. If your interested in what my fist course is, it is one of the most difficult topics out there... Introduction to Menstruation!!! Can't wait...
