An English convert Muslim sharing reflections.
As salaam alaikum,
Salaam, I’m Cherry Aisha, an English convert Muslim. I created this blog to share reflections through the eyes of an English Muslim woman. With a deep love of nature (yes that includes dogs!), spiritual reflections and a strong sense of sisterhood, I hope there’s here something to inspire you.
You will discover a library of spiritual insights, tips and resources for women navigating through life as a Muslimah in the West – and how beautiful that is! I hope to help you to navigate the challenges life brings you, inspire you and help you to nurture inner peace.
New posts are shared every week – keep popping back to make sure you don’t miss out!
When I’m not writing, I homeschool, design and build websites (including this one) and I’m studying to become a therapist. The journey of the soul fascinates me and so does the idea of making the world a better place, starting with one human at a time, beginning with myself.
I’m excited about making connections through this site and I’m hoping to invite some wonderful guests along the way. Make sure you leave a comment, I’d love to hear your reflections too!
