Feel like my life is at a standstill these days and I have nothing to look forward to.. feel far from Islam and unfortunately laziness and constant feelings of emptiness are keeping me far

Thoughts on the MOTW-founder scandal? I don’t have much words for his behavior but I wish the organization wouldn’t suffer bc it has done good for many people and had the potential to do much more.

Do y’all have a prayer room at your firm? I don’t think mine does and I’m tryna think about how i can make it a thing. I’m sure there are other Muslims here

Confession: Ramadan’s coming up real soon. As much as I look forward to fasting, it dampers my productivity and it’s very tiring

A little over a year ago, we had the Muslim ban. Now the ire seems to be focused on latino immigrants. How has your experience as a Muslim in America / the workplace changed in the last year?

As a visible Muslim, have you ever faced discrimination / Islamophobia at the workplace, either at the firm or by clients? Would like to know which country or city you are in as well
