    again disclaimer: this is not meant to be an educational video, i am not a leader/expert/teacher of any sort, i am just a human being who has recently become closer to my deen. I am aware my hijab can be better, my speech can be better, my online conduct can be better, please just make dua He makes it easy for me inshAllah :)
    This unscripted video of me unpacking my journey towards becoming closer to my deen, becoming a hijabi, and how this shifted my perspective on life.
    Added some clips from my trips (Japan, Penang, KL, Paris) , from being at home (London) and home (Singapore), because I personally could not watch a video of someone talking to a screen for longer than 2 minutes. Also for artistic expression. (Thank god for 2x speed).
    No music because its' Ramadan haha

    Honestly as an atheist sometimes I wish I was religious it seems so peaceful.

      @thikraforus หลายเดือนก่อน +14

      It is not about that, peace is not a reason to be religious. We all know deep down God exist and coming to terms with that has nothing to do with any level of intelligence no matter who you are we only need to simply confront that and worship him.
      Regardless of what your and my ego says, the greatest attribute a human can have is a worshiper of god. Aligning with our reason of existing definitely has good byproducts and one of them is peace.
      sorry I wrote too much :)

    • @waysabi
      @waysabi  หลายเดือนก่อน +15

      100% i agree with you, being religious is much much more than peace , but if someone holds beliefs and perspective on their entire existence which do not align with ours, I think it's important to introduce it with ideas they are familiar with to encourage openness to exploring Islam. When speaking to someone with a weak aqeedah, or having none at all I try my best to be careful with my advice and speech because saying the wrong thing or misguiding them may result in an existential spiral... But I do agree with what you're saying may Allah guide and protect us all inshAllah

      @@thikraforusHi! I agree with your statement it definitely is much more than peace, being religious has given me a sense of purpose in life - which is the most important mission on earth.
      But if I may ask (and forgive me if I’m overstepping), if you know God exists; what’s stopping you from worshipping Him? (From any religious perspective)

    omg i came from the 'you gotta detach from your old self (& this dunya) and thought it was amazing enough until i saw this vid. this is so relatable and relieving to hear. as someone who's a control freak who wanted the answer to every doubt i had, even got angry with God at one point about the unfairness in life, viewed things in life so nihillistically, i realised how ridiculous i acted for someone who has faith to turn back to.
    i'm still in the process of learning to let things go of the dunya like you said in the detach video specifically especially in terms of relationships and just surrender everything to Allah, knowing that if there's any being in the universe that will never disappoint me, it's Him. been reconnecting with islam again this ramadan on the deepest level i've ever experienced and i think for someone with a low self-esteem, this was the best form of self-love i could give to myself. seeking validation from Allah, as you said, is the goal.
    thank you for this video and best of luck to you on your journey! 💐

    Assalam o alikum ..i can not express how i am feeling right now...mostly because i could never expresss py thoughts in words ..i could never tell others about how and what i think and feel ..not even to myself ..i watched all of your videos and you just seem to be my inner voice but a more eloquent one..the first video i saw of yours was about detachment ..and i had been struggling from past 4 years because i was extremely extremely attached with my school ,,with my class teacher ,with my class room with that playground,that canteen and those friends ..since i left the school and went to college i could not be what I was and because no ither person seemed to go through that i thought may be i am too much dramatic ..but seeing your video healed me in so many ways that u cnt fathom..i have been wasting this Ramadan .. More precisely i would say ..last 6 months have been hell of tough and psychologically disturbng ..life people things dreams ..just seemed to be meaningless and i always always felt bad for eating good ..sleeping comfortably having friends and a good house ..i just felt ..and still feel that i am going to be in jahanum because i am not even at that level of faith where i do something to help. Palestinians ..and then i watch your video on this ramadan is just not the same as the last ..and i felt like crying to know that there was someone else who felt affected spuritually by what is happening..your words kind of heal ..they heal those parts of me which i did not think that were hurt..your voice just calms me ...please continue to make these videos and share more of your thoughts ...also ..i am right now in immense dismay because i have not still made it to the university ..because i dont have any goal ..all my frie'ds and juniors are in their 2nd semesters or 1st semester ..and i am here in my house still thinking to retake my intermediate exams for the 3rd time to get good marks ..someone might think i am such a dumb student ..but i was a brilliant student in school ...my parents and my relatives thought i will be a doctor because i am so good in studies ..and here i am now struggling to decide that if i should study further ir not ..when i see girls like you and generally ither young people out there ..doing great things ..achieving academic success ..making living at such young age ,visiting new countries .. I woe on myself for being a fat,dumb ,lazy and failure girl plus a disobedient daughter ..i feel like .....i am younger than my age ..should have been more matured i am 20 now . ...i never thought i would be such a ..useless thing in my 20 .i dont know why i wrote all this .....may be bcz i felt you as my inner soul and not some malay girl sitting in london far away from me...

    Its not easy to decide to wear hijab. Because naturally in this dunya wanna show the best part of the body. But when have faith and follow the God rules. It bring more safety and identity as moeslem more over God is on top everything. The more exposed beauty outside, its just satisfying others and validation of others. The more we love trully submitting to God. The more we greedy the blessing of God. No worldly life. Its just simple way of life in Islam.
