Book Club

Hello folks, looking for recommended reading in Islamic lore/fantasy books, like:

1. Arabian Nights
2. 40 rules of love, etc

Essentially looking to read fiction which is rooted in Islamic folklore.

Please recommend. 🫠

Finished Ghost Forest in one week, and today I started reading Wandering Souls — two books I accidentally picked back-to-back without realizing they both explore Asian diaspora shaped by political rupture.

Though Ghost Forest reads more like a vignette-style family memoir while Wandering Souls is an actual refugee story, I find them both to be such quiet meditations on grief, displacement, and loss.

So, so interesting. 🪭🪷🎏

I read a book that says:

We humans are imperfect, weak, and often restless. Yet Allah created humans in the best form❤️

Kadang-kadang terfikir kenapa susah nak buat keputusan. Ada mak saudara tanya kenapa belum kahwin lagi, but I’m still debating with myself on simple things like “I can’t even decide what to eat” 🥹

Continuing with the book:
We come to know both sweetness and bitterness in life, like eating sweet cake and drinking bitter coffee is perfect combo. For those who do not like coffee, you can always choose another one. Tak paksa 🤣

This is life, what is “bad” helps us to appreciate what is “beautiful.” Alhamdullilah

We are like books

Most peole only see your cover,
The minority read only the introduction,
Many people believe the critics,
Few will know our content.

I pray that all Muslims get wealthy so they can generously donate and help those struggling Muslim communities, especially those in Muslim countries!
The money you wastefully spend on luxury goods can literally feed entire families for months!

Here are some books!
