You were only nineteen in this photograph. Today, you turn seventy five. And here I am, your grown son, looking at your face with tears in my eyes, trying to make words hold a love they were never built to carry.

This will forever be my favourite photograph of you. Before I knew your voice, before you ever held me, before I had a name, there you were. The young woman who would become my mother. You could not yet have known how much you would mean to the children still waiting to meet you.

On your first date, Dad told you that you would be the mother of his three sons. I look at this picture and smile through my tears. He was right. Before any of us could choose you, he did, and I will be grateful for that choice for the rest of my life.

Allah gave me a mother beautiful inside and out. But as I grow older, I understand that being your son means more than admiring your beauty. It means recognising the woman behind the word “Mom.” The years you have lived, the things you have carried, the parts of yourself you gave while we were still too young to understand their worth.

I see more of that now, Mom. And I thank you.

I adore you. I cherish you. There is no other mother, no other life, no other beginning I would trade you for. Of all the blessings Allah has placed in my hands, being your son is one I will never finish thanking Him for.

May Allah grant you health, ease, laughter, and many more birthdays with us. May you feel deeply loved. Not only today, but in the ordinary moments when you need it most.

Happy seventy fifth birthday, Mom. The girl in this photograph could not have known that, fifty six years later, her son would look at her and cry because he loves her so much.

But I hope the woman reading this does. 🤲🏾❤️

Through thick and thin, my brother, my best friend. From womb mates to teammates, I have never known a world without you in it, & the older I get, the more I understand what a blessing that is.

We’ve grown into our own men, but there’s a part of my heart only you will ever understand. The same heart, familiar struggles, and a pride in each other’s victories that feels like winning twice. We are mirrors, each carrying pieces of a story the other never needs to explain.

I would die for you, but I would rather live for you. Grow old with you. Answer when you call. Be there for the days we’ll remember, and the ones we’ll need each other to survive.

I love you for the sake of Allah, my brother. We shared our first home beneath our mother’s heart, and you’ve had a place in mine ever since. May Allah give us years of laughter still to come, until we’re two old men reminding each other of the boys we used to be. 🤲🏾❤️ 👶🏽👶🏽

Surah Az-Zumar (The Groups) Surah 39 is one of the most powerful chapters in the Qur’an. Revealed in Makkah, it focuses on Tawhid (the Oneness of Allah), sincerity in worship, accountability, repentance, and the Day of Judgment.

May Allah increase all of our knowledge and love of Islam. 🤲🏾✨📿

I have mixed feelings when it comes to certain songs. There’s no question this one is beautifully composed and sung by the incredibly talented Gregory Abbott. (“Shake you Down.”) but the truth is, it carries the weight of someone I love who’s no longer here.
My father introduced me to this song. He used to sing it word for word, note for note, and watching him do it, made my brothers and I want to learn every line ourselves. He came up on doo-wop, so those high notes came to him like breathing. Effortless, & almost weightless.
And here’s the thing people never expected… Given his size, his stature, that unmistakable masculine presence, you’d never guess a man built like that could sing like an angel. But he had it. He carried a voice tender enough to hold a room, tucked inside a frame strong enough to hold the world.
So when this song plays, I smile. And I mean that. But I won’t pretend there aren’t tears sitting right behind that smile too. I’m still learning what to do with that kind of joy and grief living in the same breath. So for now, I’m just sharing it with you.
Either way, I hope this timeless song reaches you the way it still reaches me.

Family means everything to me. I miss each of you so much, and I hold you close in my heart. These photos are from a year ago, and time has flown by. They show my nephews, my daughter, my mom, my older brother, my twin brother Eric @ejn_356 , and my sweet grandma / Abuela 👵🏾. I can’t wait to see you all again and share those moments of love together. May Allah protect you all.

This bond cannot be duplicated, nor understood, unless you’ve walked this earth beside your mirror. Two P’s 🐓 in a Pod. 🫛 Cut from one root, and grown on loyal soil.

Though continents now divide us, no ocean, no distance, no drifting tide can touch what was written in us before birth. Eric @ejn_356 is handsome, strong, faithful. A father who builds rather than breaks, a road dog whose loyalty needs no oath, for it was sealed in the womb before the world ever asked us to choose sides.

Some men search a lifetime for a brother like this. I was born with mine. 🤝🏾 Alham’dulillah !

Some blessings arrive disguised as siblings. Mine arrived as my twin, and I have been rich ever since. 🏝️
