In our days, two slaps were enough
It actually crazy that I don't have matches yet, but I don't let it get to me. I know my worth. I'm a confident guy who embraces his disability as a gift from Allah, and I'm not here for everyone—I'm just here for the right one who sees my value. And if someone unmatches me or doesn't want to marry me because of my disabilities? Oh ****, then I'm still handsome. I actually can’t wait when I marry my queen, treat her like a queen, and make her happy
Assalamualaikum every one
During the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah (the month of Hajj), Muslims believe these are among the most blessed days of the year. Many acts of worship are especially encouraged.
Here are the main things Muslims try to do more of:
- Extra prayer (Salah)
Pray all five daily prayers on time.
Pray extra voluntary prayers (nafl).
Pray Tahajjud at night if possible.
- Fasting
Fasting during the first 9 days is recommended for many Muslims.
The most emphasized is fasting on the Day of Arafah (9th Dhul Hijjah) for those not performing Hajj.
It is believed to bring great forgiveness.
- Dhikr (remembering Allah)
Frequently say:
SubhanAllah (Glory be to Allah)
Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah)
Allahu Akbar (Allah is Greatest)
La ilaha illallah (There is no god but Allah)
Many Muslims also recite the Takbir often during these days.
- Reading the Qur’an
Read daily, even a small amount.
Reflect on its meaning and try to act on it.
- Dua (supplication)
Ask Allah for:
forgiveness,
guidance,
mercy,
good health,
success in this life and the next.
- Charity and helping others
Give sadaqah (charity),
feed people,
help family, neighbors, and those in need.
- Qurbani/Udhiya
Those who are able may offer a sacrifice during Eid al-Adha to remember the devotion of Prophet Ibrahim.
- Repentance and good character
Avoid sins,
forgive others,
improve manners,
strengthen family ties.
Eid al-Adha and the days before it are considered a special opportunity for worship, gratitude, and spiritual renewal. During the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah (the month of Hajj), Muslims believe these are among the most blessed days of the year. Many acts of worship are especially encouraged.

The Multi-Dimensional Human Being in Islam
From an Islamic perspective, the human being can be understood as a multi-dimensional creation — not merely a physical body, but a being composed of body, intellect, soul, heart, consciousness, and moral responsibility.
The Qur’an repeatedly points to layers of existence beyond the material world:
“And they ask you concerning the soul. Say: the soul is from the command of my Lord, and you have been given little knowledge.”
(Qur’an 17:85)
This verse is profound because it acknowledges that human reality extends beyond what can be fully measured or materially explained. Islam does not reduce the human being to biology alone.
In Islamic thought, the human exists simultaneously across multiple dimensions of reality:
The physical body (jism) — our material existence.
The nafs (self/ego) — the seat of impulses, desires, identity, and struggle.
The qalb (heart) — not merely emotional, but spiritual perception and moral orientation.
The ruh (spirit) — breathed from Allah’s command, connecting the human to transcendent reality.
The intellect (‘aql) — discernment, reflection, and consciousness.
The Qur’an says:
“So when I have fashioned him and breathed into him from My spirit…”
(Qur’an 15:29)
This suggests that the human being carries both earthly and transcendent dimensions — formed from clay, yet animated by a divine command. In this sense, the human is suspended between lower material impulses and higher spiritual potential.
Islam also recognizes multiple dimensions of reality itself: the seen (shahadah) and the unseen (ghayb).
“Those who believe in the unseen…”
(Qur’an 2:3)
The unseen in Islam includes angels, souls, revelation, metaphysical realities, and ultimately dimensions of existence beyond ordinary sensory perception.
From this perspective, spiritual growth is not about escaping the human condition, but integrating these dimensions harmoniously. When the lower self dominates, a person becomes trapped in ego, pride, domination, excess, and heedlessness. But when the heart and spirit guide the self, the human rises toward compassion, wisdom, restraint, justice, and nearness to God.
This is why Islam places such emphasis on purification of the soul (tazkiyah). The real battle is internal: between ego and truth, desire and discipline, heedlessness and remembrance.
So in Islam, the human being is not a one-dimensional creature driven only by instinct or social identity. The human is a layered being with physical, psychological, moral, intellectual, and spiritual dimensions — capable of both immense corruption and profound transcendence.
What's a fun fact about yourself?
Or what's one thing you did that would surprise someone?
I once applied to The Apprentice. I saw a news article on the daily mail website about a guy that signed up for fun. So I was motivated to do the same. So I applied. Went to the casting interview. BS'd my way all to the top of the final round. And when I say BS. I mean I didn't have a plan of action. All them lot talking about was quarter million pound deals. I went in saying I'll jump out of planes without a parachute if they wanted me to. Kid from East London trying to make it big. After 4hours, got to the directors. Then came clean that I actually just did it for fun and was never serious about it.
Castings were held at 28 Stephens Street. Just off Tottenham Crt Rd.
Though the building was just getting finished after a rebuild.
Their faces were priceless. Though I think I'd want to do it again. But this time go in serious and with a game plan. Though time isn't my best friend at the moment.
