I was brought up in a Christian family, the eldest of three siblings. I studied Law at University and have worked as a legal advisor for both profit and charitable organizations. I reverted to Islam five years ago.

In January 2007 I gave birth for the first time. My life changed forever. Initially overwhelmed by the huge responsibility that lay in my arms, I was determined to bring up my son to the best of my ability. To teach, encourage and nurture him in the way that Allah (SWT) commands. I started reading and researching and haven’t stopped, Insha’Allah I never will.

I hope to share with you what I have learned, experiences that I have had and things that I would like to try. I advocate a healthy, organic and simple way of life wherever possible. Cooking from scratch, growing my own food and crafting are all things that I do and are things that I hope to share with you too. I currently live in East London with my husband and three young children.
