Create A Miracle

Leadership and miracles
There is one way to create miracles prophets have done it, saints do it, and this is the power of prayer.




God truly does answer :)
Please help create a miracle let's pray for unity and justice in the Middle East amongst all the sects. Unity not uniformity, hence love our differences and cherish our sameness.

Let's extend this energy to affect all the countries being divided.

2 steps to make this change:

Step 1:
To create this change pray at least once a day after Isha for the next 42 days with commitment, love. For unity amongst all Muslims, if needed special prayer is attached.

Step 2:
For the next 42 days help people around you at any cost. Make it priority, if anyone asks for help, help them unconditionally.




By doing so you put into practice what you asked for. Join us to share your story/make a suggestion contact us.


Be the leader of your destiny make the change you want to see happen.

Unity not uniformity :)
Thank you

Reach Your Goals!



As we progress forward in life and think about the things we don’t like and fantasize about the things we do like. We form imaginary situations and fantasies that are linked to celebrity photoshopped pictures and movie scenes. We follow fantasies that lead us astray and away from our goals thus rendering us always unsatisfied and on the yo yo of up and down.






Through time we loose our objectives and look externally for satisfaction, we start to blame external circumstances for our unhappiness. What is worse we blame ourselves we are not disciplined enough, not good enough, and another battle of build your self esteem, leadership skills, I will talk more gently, I will be more submissive etc starts internally... The truth is your strengths are what you need to reach your goal your purpose in life. 
Your weaknesses/shortcomings are the challenges that will further motivate you and make you fail in order to reach your destination. Your shortcomings are the tool to perfect your journey in this life and make it worthwhile.




The weaknesses you condemn are not really an issue as they appear as indicators that  you are not following your path, you are truly unhappy and that is why weaknesses/ bad habits increase in number and in nature.



The weaknesses that you do posses that need to be overcome only show up at work, they are the things that you feel if you just push a little harder you will get to your objective, those are the real challenges that need to be overcome.



For example: You want to become a famous singer but have stage fear. This fear is what you need to push against this will make you work harder in order to cover your fear. If you want to be a singer to be famous and have a nice car and be like Beyonce you will most likely have stage fear, voice problems, trembling, and you will be tone deaf and the list will grow



Identify your objective:



“If following our objective was easy we will all be living happy fulfilled lives” Noon



  • What you thought you wanted to be when you grow up
  • What are the things you liked to study at school
  • Area of your life that you are struggling with
  • What you most talk about
  • The types of movies you mostly watch
  • Your resolutions what direction do they take you
  • Hobby, what are you known for



If we carefully observe the answers to these we will see a very distinct pattern. The weakness that you are facing is the area that you need to invest your time in. By investing your time in an area that you are struggling with you will find your true weaknesses and opportunities for growth. By slow introspection and empowering the area of our life that needs work we will see doors that open leading us to our goal.

My husband crushed me with his feet


Reading the middle east news in the morning as usual, I was shocked to see that post. Carine Salameh, a famous anchor on a Lebanese television was hit by her husband.

It is not acceptable anymore! Enough!! Women are not animals! Even animals shouldn't be beat up according to any religion or any moral school.

All the campaigns and movements who advocate Arab women are NOT enough. The change has to start from our manners. The way the parents raise their kids and the manners that we teach our children.. This will grow up with them and stay forever.

Yes, behind every act of violence against women, parents who didn't raise their boys well. And by "well" I don't mean prepare them food and send them to good schools. Parents who reacted harshly and negatively to their kids' aggressive acts, parents who sat bad examples, parents who continued a cycle of violence and transferred it to their kids, parents who didn't stop the gender-based stereotypes, parents who spoiled their kids...

No wonder we started 2014 with "The Kindness Project in the Middle east" campaign!! We felt and touched the need for kindness, manners, morals and etiquettes in our Arab World.

Just last week, I was chatting with a lady who has a Facebook Group, more like a religious group. And I was asking to put some kindness posts on her group to encourage acts of kindness in the Middle East. Guess what she said!! Her exact reply was: "We only put religious posts". Isn't religion about morals and kindness?! Since when religion meant just prayers and sayings. Every religion started with manners and kindness.

We will not loose hope. We will continue our kindness project. Starting with 1 person, soon we will be millions.

And until we change the way we raise our children, we will still see violence and wars in our offspring.
