Hardbacks available from the Great British Bookshop and other online retailers

Paperpacks available from Amazon. (I actually prefer their colour printers, but te hardback format is still a winner).

I am undecided about selling direct from my website but I may reconsider if I get more traffic.


I am so excited but also daunted by the new hat I have to wear- the Marketing hat. This has actually been a great experience going into self-publishing so far. See a project from all different angles- the perspective of the creative, then making the best decisions for the book as a publisher and now promoting.


I have learnt many things through this process and also made some interesting rookie mistakes. But this project was never about perfection. It was about showing the world what I can do right now. It will be amazing to create more books in the future insha'allah and be able to compare the growth and improvement between my debut and the next. I'm enjoying this as much as I can.


One thing people overlook is that no project is completed alone, you need to solicit the advice and expertise of others. A big shout out to Tom Mcbrien, Vicky Gerrard, Ramile Imac Sini and Laura Kingston for helping me make my dream come true. It is a beautiful book maasha'allah and may Allah swt put lots of barakah in it ameen to help Muslim children and families learn about the importance of sincere worship in Ramadan and that it is ok to make mistakes so long as you learn from it.

May Allah swt also help me in achieving my personal goals ameen.
