Blog Hiatus
Asalaam Alaikum Friends,
Alhamdulillah, Ramadan has come to an end and with it, most of my free time. Between work and grad school - I have restarted my Ph.D. - I am fairly swamped. I really enjoyed myself this past weekend (GSU football, Braves game, paintball and two Eid dinners), but I have to face the music and all the work that has piled up. So, I will be taking a break from blogging till probably October 1st. Insha'Allah I will finish my first batch of doctoral assignments - one interview and two book reviews - and will have more time to commit to writing about topics that I am passionate about.
A small sample of upcoming issues insha'Allah:
1. The sad state of Mother's Day in the Muslim world.
2. "Popular" tattooing vs. Cosmetic tattooing vs. Plastic Surgery - What's halal and what's not?
3. Racist and intolerant friends
4. Priviledge in the classroom
Thoughts on education, politics, social justice, equality, pop culture and Islam through the heart, mind and soul of an American Muslim. I am a 32-year old male, Hindu convert to Islam, community college professor, doctoral student and past coordinator for Muslim Men Against Domestic Violence. Please email me at iwontjudgeyou@live.com
good luck with the assignments, and look forward to reading your blog in first week of october.cheers
