Islamic Beginnings Islamic Beginnings are excited to announce the release of our first children's picture book: My Islam A-Z by Bushra Taslim Hussain.

15/06/2024

This summer make sure to check out the delightful offering of Oxford Play Association (OPA).

All activities are FREE all day for young and old to come together and play!

I’ll have an art stand where you can paint, draw and colour to your hearts content ☺️

Highlights of today in a dad spending quality time painting with his kids and doing a lovely painting of his name in Urdu, a group of 4 siblings and cousins who sat opposite each other and drew portraits of one another (firstly apologising if theirs was rubbish because they couldn’t draw 😂), and a total cutie who said she was making something for someone… when she finished she gave it to me and said: it says you are amazing…

Praying for some good, stable weather conditions going forward!

Today we had showers, wind and sun all changing every couple of mins!

Really looking forward to a wonderful day in the spring bank holiday ☺️

HasbunAllah wa Ni'mal Wakeel. Allah is the best disposer of all affairs. I see strength, conviction in God, and a will to live in the Palestinian people. May I be as strong as they are. Ya Allah take the martyrs to the highest levels of Jannah. Ya Allah stop their suffering at the hands of their oppressors, the colonisers, Israel. Ya Allah let the world wake up to the war crimes and genocide that is being committed in Palestine right now. Let us be a voice for those whose voice isn't being heard. Let us pray for our brothers and sisters and stand on the right side of history.
Ameen ya rab al alameen (oh God of all the living things).

Local author Bushra will be reading from her book, My Islam A-Z as well as from a couple of other beautiful nature themed books. We will have a few other farm and nature based children's books available to read and some children's colouring books and pages to keep the little ones entertained too! Bushra will hold her main reading session from approximately 11.30am-12.30pm.

The farm will be open from 10.30am until 1.30pm and our pop up cafe will be open. Entry is free but if you book via Eventbrite (our link is in our profile) it helps us to ensure that we make enough cake 🍰!

It was so lovely to be back on the weekend and finally get some pictures of the artwork that was produced at the Willowbrook Arts and Music Festival 2022.

It looks wonderful on display at the cafe and farm shop.

What’s your favourite piece and why?

Also, I just wanted to address imposter syndrome! I was so nervous about holding this workshop. I didn’t know if I could do it or who the heck I thought I was calling myself an artist! I remember being so nervous to even approach Lamia about it. But Alhamdulillah it went amazing and I can’t wait to host another art workshop this coming weekend. I’d love to see you there at stand J39

A reflection on the last year…

This time last year there was a tragic fire at my neighbour’s house. It was terrifying. We had to leave in the middle of the night, with the rescue services working at top speed to control the blaze, not knowing if there would be anything to return to.

I have never experienced a moment like it. As I stood on the street outside I felt sadness for my home and belongings. Not the most expensive ones, or the most valuable; but those that were probably worthless to others - my photos and personal gifts - special things that couldn’t be replaced. And as I experienced this I felt such detachment from all my worldly possessions. We were alive - my children were alive. And those ‘things’ - they were still memories in my head and most importantly my heart. I didn’t need them physically in my hands.

Just after the fire, I was nominated for and won the .in.business author award. Alhamdulillah it was such a wonderful occasion. I couldn’t believe it! It was an honour to be nominated, but to actually win! SubhanAllah!

Alhamdulillah in July, I had my fourth baby ☺️. Such a terrific blessing!

We moved back home in September 2021 when the house was relatively safe for children to be living there! And works are still ongoing to this day. We are still living the rollercoaster of life with all its highs and lows- Alhamdulillah for it all.

But what about my business… well I think I can count the number of orders through my website on my fingers, or maybe not… I can’t remember that far back! My accounts and spreadsheets are terribly out of date (but I’m working on them ) and I haven’t done any promotional work.

Sometimes when we look at a person and/or their work, we only see the glitz and the glam. The awards, the nice photos, and the success. It’s impossible to know the sweat, blood and tears behind it all. So this is first and foremost a reminder to myself -

I feel like I didn’t deserve the award. I haven’t achieved ‘great’ things - what they are I’m not sure.

But I do know that my time will come. Surely Allah is with the patient ones. thanks for your reminder 🥰

is a wonderful book to introduce the diversity of our beautiful religion to our little ones - my children are in the early years and they are just starting to understand and grasp the idea of different countries and how they are made and borders are decided etc... it’s really nice to be able to explain how Islam unites people from all over the world - no matter what country a person may be from, the language they speak, the colour of their skin, or what clothes they wear - we are all
