Loved your recommendations! I highly recommend listening to the audiobook of Can't Hurt Me, as you listen to the book, Goggins gives his own insights and comments so it's like listening to a book and podcast at the same time.
Selin please organise a meet up for Conscious and Awakened Muslim sisters. I am a Muslim woman and I cannot find any young enlightened sisters to speak with. It’s quite isolating, if you have a Facebook could you leave details so it is possible to send a message and get the ball rolling!
Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee - extensive and blistering account of the fall of the First Nation in America - you realise how none of the old political tactics have changed.
I love this hijab colour so stunning mashaAllah, I also love the book animal farm I read it years ago and hadn’t thought about it until you mentioned it. After I read it I really struggled to watch or read any political news because it all felt so similar to the book.
Hi Selin, I was a very practicing Muslim, at least Imaan-wise I was strong even when I wasn't praying the best. George Orwell's 1984 completely altered my brain chemistry and it threw me off with the concept of religion (no beef with Islam specifically). I'm kind of left with Deism feelings but feeling distant from Islam, even though I call myself Muslim. Have you read it? What did you take from it, if you did?
@@colorswordsandlearning Jzk for your comment. Try to finish it. It's the thought police and concept of doublethink that screwed with my head, it feels just like religion. Not saying it's the same but there are some strong parallels. Makes it feel like the argument to say "religion is to control the masses" is credible. Of course I'm not saying I fully believe this, I'm still processing it
For me 1984 shows how MAN tries to impose layers of control between the MASSES and any higher authority - whereas ISLAM Is the only faith that defies this and removes all shackles. It's a direct connection between man and the almighty - no intercessors in between. It's the most freeing ideology out there - and thus the greatest threat to mechanisms of control.
Assalamu Alaikum Selin, I’ve been following your journey and I’m really inspired by your transition to Islam. I would love to share your beautiful story with my audience on my RUclips channel, with your permission, of course. If you allow me to create a video about your Islamic journey, I would be truly honored. Looking forward to hearing from you! May Allah bless you always. Ameen.

That bookshelf is a whole library lol , goals

Autobiography of Malcolm X is still my favorite book
Thanks sister 🤗♥️
Thanks sis for sharing! I can’t wait to read some of these ♥️ have you read Man’s search for meaning?
Not yet, it's on my list!
Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee - extensive and blistering account of the fall of the First Nation in America - you realise how none of the old political tactics have changed.
Very interesting Books! Now I want to read them all lol
Thank you for sharing ❤
I suggest that you read "Road to Mecca" by Muhammad Asad. It's a gem 💎
Let me know if you end up reading any of them! Thank you so much for your suggestion ❤ have added that to my list for this year
I love this hijab colour so stunning mashaAllah, I also love the book animal farm I read it years ago and hadn’t thought about it until you mentioned it. After I read it I really struggled to watch or read any political news because it all felt so similar to the book.
Thank you so much ❤I know what you mean! It leaves you with a lot to think about... crazy how it can be applied to so many contexts
Thanks

It's on my list to read this month actually, heard mixed things about it so really curious to see what's it like
@Simply-Selin if you remember this comment, please be sure to bring back your take! Might help me figure things out
Even if you feel detached , just try Tawakkul . In some part of your heart . ❤
I have started and stopped 1984 many times .

Beautiful mind - what is your favourite translation of the Quran, and why?
So far, either the Qur'an Project or Professor Abdel Haleem's translation... they are both very clear
