[tani2568]

why dont you make an app fir hijab

[smiiiiiley]

Wow, you are so beautiful. MashAllah <3

[zainabbaniaz]

Assalaamu alaikum. I love your videos and tutorials. They're great mashaa'allah. I have a suggestion for you. It's an app called Foodsplore. It's relatively new but it's great. Not gonna say anymore about it but please check it out. Jazaa'kallah.

[Icanmakeyoushakeit1]

where are you from?

[pereziana]

Nice suggestions!!! I will take it into account. It´s nice you explain things besides mentioning eventually a brand you explain how the product is, so I can try to find it over here. I loved the mascara and Vitamin C suggestion.

[786hashbrown]

she kind of looks like the english jessica alba, just noticed that. anywayy, mashaAllah, great vids :D

[AA5beaconnite]

Aoa..

Love ur style..:D

thanks..:)xx

[204tawfiq]

How did u lose weight after you had your kids?

[204tawfiq]

I cant believe u have two kids Mashallah, I am so jealouse cuz u look soo young first

I thought u were single then I found out ur married and I was surprised and later one day u said sorry my kids r making noise in the background and I was like whatttt? kidssss? u mean u have children and more than one??? heh keep up whatever ur doing to take care of urself girl :)

[InsaneSouthAsian]

I play scrabble with random people on my iphone and WHAT. A. BAD. IDEA. I totally keep seeing words everywhere too!!! It's awkward when I study and see words in equations WHAT SENSE does that even make?! LOLL

[itzztazz]

If you want a good app get shazam

Its recognises music that is playing from somewhere else and gives you the name for it

[trichmomma]

Just ordered the floral chiffon wing hoojab.Can't wait to get,then I'll officially be a daisy.Yay:))

[HijabiGiirl]

Assalamualaikum Sister Amena,

Jazakallah for all the amazing videos, you really inspire me. There is just one thing that I am wondering about. For the past month I have been considering about buying the Black Beauty Maxi Hoojab, I went on the website to buy it today but it's not there anymore. Please can you tell me when you will get them again.

Jazakallah

[SmartiesNoo]

Try whatsApp

[pkus20]

Assalamualaikum Amena, I love the thought of having a stretching denim head covering. However, please introduce denim hijabs as well. First of all the wing hoojabs are kind of pricey, I am sure that a lot of workmanship goes into creating them and thats why the price is high. Secondly I have two wing hoojabs MashaAllah I like the material but it is time consuming to put them on and I dont find myself reaching for them often. Therefore, if you could please make avail denim hijabs I would def buy

[livia8802]

Salam sis. Do u have a tutorial for the beautiful hijab Ur wearing I just started wearing hijab literally a week ago. I love love love the hijab n style ur wearing in this video. <3

[erinblack00]

Your poor son, great story for the future!

[jadelinanne]

Assalam Alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatu,

Dear sister Amena,

Your videos are such an inspiration! Thank you for continuing to post videos!

If it is possible, can you please make a video on outfits to wear with the hijab to highschool? It's quite hard to find. Thank you :)xx

[clip012]

wondering..how do u take off ur make up esp mascara on a work day and later put it up after prayer?..how long does it take?..how can u live daily with time consuming make up time..n later take it off to pray n put it back?..how can u stil be a productive worker..jst wondering..plus da time to take off hijab for wuduk n put it on back..i saw ladies who take wuduk wt their make up stil on..which is totally wrong.

[fanfare78]

@clip012

salam sis

actually u can take your wuduk first then apply makeup and what not

just ensure that no expose skin came in contact with non mahram

hope that justify as an answer

As my Ustaj always says

Islam is a simple religion but always get interpreted and understood in an absurd way

[clip012]

@fanfare78 yes..i did that if i have to attend dinner party that start at 8 pm..i take wuduk, put on make up, pray n later attend da dinner...but during normal workday..there is no way i am taking wuduk in da morning, put on make up and wait for 8 hours trying to NOT fart or pee..to pray Zuhur n Asar..that is ridiculous..i dont see how any girls can be a productive worker with make up and stil trying to pray. drop da make up, pray n work..have to decide on priorities since we cannot hv it all.

[syazwankhan]

Salam 'alaikum. Im an 18 years old muslim boy here. Just a short reminder to muslimah in case u forgot. Please wear the hijab and cover your body with the intention for the sake of Allah and not for fashion and stuff like that. Jazakallah Khair. and remember to make yourself beautiful whenever your husbands at home.

[torrisan]

@syazwankhan -_- 

[chrrycoketyuy]

Wonderful december faves!!!

[chriscross2603]

Oh! You love Suheir Hammad! I love her, too! And this particular one ("Not your Erotic, not your Exotic") happens to be my absolute, absolute favourite by her! Rafeef Ziadah is amazing, too. Very strong poem in so many aspects. I think I liked best how she was so "breathless" like I imagine a news ticker at a news agency. Thank you very much for this suggestion!

[FatimOoO]

Rafeef (l)

[Pe2805M]

Assalamu'alaikum Amena :) I subscribed to you short after I got back from my travel to Indonesia. I believe in god but my family was never religious and this travel gave me the opportunity to talk about Islam... When I saw the happy and tolerant people all around, I thought there must be something about this religion... So I'm proudly saying I read al-Qur'an now and I must say your videos are great resource for me, too. You are a lovely person :)

Take care & thank you :)
