My Story

Hello, and peace be with you.

My name is A. Younes, and I am the founder of Muslim Life Guide.

I want to be clear about who I am: I am not a formal scholar or a famous speaker. I am a regular person who has felt the immense weight of life's struggles and who, through that weight, found a profound purpose.

This project exists because I saw how my own mother, a single parent, struggled to feed us, to send us to school, and to make sure we felt secure after my father passed away. Her fight wasn't always 100% successful. I know the feeling of "if only..." It wasn't about wanting fancy clothes or the latest gadgets, but the quiet ache for the simple, basic things. That feeling is engraved in my heart and soul.

Now, whenever I see a little kid or a mother fighting for her children, I see myself. I see my mother. I tell myself, "if only I had the means to ease the weight on her shoulders, to be like a big brother and offer help to that child."

Muslim Life Guide is my "if only." It is my attempt to build the means to help.

The inspiration for this site also comes from witnessing my mother's unwavering belief in Allah, no matter what happened. She taught me the most important lesson: Allah loves you, and He will never give you a burden you cannot overcome. That is the core message I hope to share with every person who visits this site.

This website is my commitment to honoring the memory of my parents. It is my way of building a legacy of service, and my personal promise to stay on a path of purpose and positivity.

Thank you for being here and for being a part of this journey.
