If I was a bird ningekuwa naenda vacations endlessly. This year nikiwa Barbados next yr ni Thailand ama Budapest. Kupatikana Kenya maybe time ya maandamano tu.
One of my biggest prayer points is to be among the people of the Qur’an. I want to be so attached to it, way more than I am with my phone. I want to reach a point where I can’t go a day without turning to it. May Allah guide me, strengthen me, and make it easy for me.

Too easy for someone that slapped the angel of death, sent Prophet Muhammad back to Allah severally to reduce the amount of prayers in a day, and asked if he could see Allah while he was in dunya.
(AS), A different breed. 😂

This Ramadan is yours. Don’t let anyone ruin it for you. Don’t let anyone hinder your progress and don’t let anything prevent you from improving. Remember that you were chosen to be he here. Many wanted to be here but they aren’t but you are here. An opportunity not to be wasted
It is not hypocritical or haram to be more religious during Ramadan. It's actually a good thing. Don't let people deceive or gaslight you. Regardless of what they say, increase your ibadah.
Allahummah Baligna Ramadan.
Before donating online this Ramadan, look around you. Family, neighbors, relatives may be struggling in silence. Charity is about sincerity, not display. May Allah let us gain true reward this Ramadan.
Anyone who says the future of Greenland should be up to Greenlanders but won't accept that the future of Gaza should be up to the Palestinians is a hypocritical sack of shit.
Let people judge you.
Let them misunderstand you.
Let them gossip about you. What they think about you isn't your problem. Their opinions don't pay your bills. So stay kind and free in your authenticity, no matter what they do or say. Never doubt your worth.
what i’m getting from this 2016 throwback is that everyone used to be so fun, so carefree and so at ease. now everything is heavily curated and no one wants to be silly anymore. we need to bring that back.
someone told me yesterday that when they feel nervous about trying something new & their heart starts beating really fast, that they call it their “inner applause” because their body is cheering them on, and i think that’s the best narrative adjustment ever.
what you do in private, shows in public. reading shows in a conversation. your diet shows in energy. your discipline shows in confidence. your focus shows in your results. you are what you cultivate when no one is watching. prioritize your time & focus on discipline/consistency
Lastly my fellow Kenyans, anything owned by government is owned by you. You are government. You pay for all public assests: national parks, sites of national heritage, public schools, public hospitals, the 3 parks in CBD, GK vehicles and army/police uniforms, even raparian land.
