After many months on planning and revising, my first-ever kids book is finally available to the public: “Aliyah’s First Ramadan.”
( This is the back cover- the front cover can be found on the right side bar)
This is a story of a young girl, Aliyah, and her first time fasting Ramadan. Conflict ensues when she is at school and the teacher yells, “SNACK TIME!” Find out what happens in this fun rhyme book!
I’m really excited about this book because it’s so fun to read out loud to kids. The illustrations were wonderfully drawn by Br. Mohamed Qovaizi, and the final product really exceeded my expectations, walhamdulillah. I can honestly say I did my best to publish this book with ihsaan.
My appeal to you, the reader:
If you have kids of your own, younger siblings, nieces, nephews or even friends who have kids — buy this book and send it out to your email lists.
Any profits from this book will, inshaAllah, HELP FACILITATE HAJJ for my husband and I. So this project is extremely important for so many different reasons.
This book is for kids ages 4+
Two Formats of the book to chose from:
1. You can purchase the PDF online version of the book for $11.99 or
2. You can purchase the physical book to be shipped to your home for$19.99 – inshaAllah.
I really recommend the physical copy of the book, because it’s a lot funner for kids to actually hold and filp through the pages, not to mention it’s easier for reading at bed time .
May Allah ‘az wa jal accept this from me and from you, ameen.
Alhamdulillah, as you all can see Egyptian Gumbo has undergone extensive surgery. Belal did a great job with the graphic work mashaAllah, and alhamdulillah I can honestly say I couldn’t have explained a better design to fit my site better than what he executed (so Jazak Allahu Khairan).
Tonight according to us is the 27th night of Ramadan. And I thought to break into my blog and reap the blessings of this night, I thought I’d upload my traditional uploading of beautiful Quran recitations for you all onto my blog for those of you who would like to download them inshaAllah- in return I humble ask that you keep me and my family in your dua.

For those of you wondering and asking if EG is forever done with, inshaAllah after giving it much thought and consideration I’ve decided to bring back EG, but version 2.0. That means a EG will be getting a facelift, more original media and writings, but perhaps instead of writing every week, it might be biweekly.
InshaAllah, I’ll be doing this as soon as I can get a certain somebody *ahem Belal* do give EG a facelift.
