Islamic Lifestyle

Every generation experiences a “new normal.” Sometimes it follows global change. Sometimes personal loss. Sometimes spiritual drift. The phrase suggests adjustment, but in Islam, guidance does not come from adapting blindly. It comes from returning to what anchors the soul. Salah is that anchor. No matter how the world shifts,…

Time is not neutral in Islam. It is a trust, a sign from Allah, and a framework through which faith is lived.
