The Sound Heart
A Muslim’s Guide to Silencing the Internal Storm
Why are so many of us, in a community that possesses the truth, so quietly unwell?
We pray on time, fast for a month, pay Zakat, and give Sadaqah. And still there is the anxiety, the exhaustion, the anger that comes out sideways at the people we love most, the envy we would never admit to. And underneath it, the suspicion that something is not working, that it is probably our own fault, and that we had better not say so out loud.
If you are depressed, your faith is weak. If you are anxious, you lack trust in Allah. If you are struggling, pray more.
That is not our religion.
Islam has an extraordinary science of the heart, one of the great achievements of this civilisation, and we have very largely lost it. Al-Ghazali, Ibn al-Qayyim, al-Balkhi and Ibn al-Jawzi examined envy, despair, rumination and self-deception with a precision and a compassion that has never been matched. Their hospitals treated the mentally ill as patients while much of the world was driving such people out of villages.
The Sound Heart puts that inheritance back in your hands. Thirty-six chapters, grounded in the Qur’an and the Sunnah, that name what is wrong and then tell you exactly what to do about it. On greed and anger and pride. On the mind that will not settle and the dark that will not lift. On sleep, the phone, the table, your marriage, your work. On seeking professional help and why doing so is an act of faith rather than a failure of it.
You will not be shamed here. Every diagnosis in this book exists for the sake of a cure.
And the cure is real, it is available tonight, and the One who prescribed it loved you first.

The Blessed Table
We are the most fed generation in history, and among the most unwell. More diets, more advice, and more conflicting claims than ever, and yet more food-related illness, fatigue, and low spirits. Somewhere along the way, we mislaid a wisdom our own tradition never lost.
The Blessed Table is a warm, practical guide to eating the way the Qur’an and the Prophet ﷺ taught, written for the ordinary Muslim family who wants to feel well again without fear, guilt, or a single calorie counted. It draws together classical Islamic teaching and the best of modern nutrition to show that they have been saying the same thing all along: that simple food, taken in fair measure, received with gratitude and shared with others, feeds the body, the mind, and the soul at once.
Inside, you will find the meaning of tayyib, the mercy of the empty third, the wisdom of the fast, the blessed foods the Prophet ﷺ loved, the manners that turn a meal into worship, and a gentle, honest look at what poor eating costs us, and how far the body will forgive.

One Day At A Time
A Muslim’s Guide to Digital Burnout
The device in your pocket promised to connect you. Instead it has scattered your attention, thinned your prayer, and left you faintly present everywhere and truly present nowhere. You have tried the detoxes and the productivity apps, and the tiredness always returns, because the real problem was never your screen time. It was your heart.
One Day at a Time goes underneath the usual advice to a cure that Islam mapped centuries before the first notification. Long before there were screens, the scholars charted the restless human heart and prepared a medicine for it: a whole science of purifying the soul. What you are offered here is not a foreign technique but an inheritance that was yours all along, turned now toward the distraction of our age.
Across seventeen short chapters, this book shows you how to seal your nights and reclaim your mornings before the phone, how to turn your work into worship, and how to fill the silence the feed leaves behind with the remembrance of God. It is gentle, unhurried, and free of any scolding. Each chapter asks little of you, and each ends with a single small practice you can begin tonight.
