2024 has been a wild ride so far
- Flown to 5 countries in 90 days, and closed 3 deals
- Met some incredible people
- Started my Arabic journey, and went to Umrah
And I’m super excited to announce Pivot2Tech 2.0 in June.
(already secured some 7-figure guest lecturers)
btw if you’re gonna boycott at Starbucks, keep it permanent this time.
This happens every time where we say “boycott X”, then 2 months later we’re back on it once Palestine stops being in the news 🤦🏾♂️
For £40, Emirates will do a “home check-in”.
They’ll come to your house or hotel 24hrs prior and take your bags to the plane and check you in.
No other airline comes close tbh
Don't be selfish with your duas, pray for the Muslims you barely even know, pray your mutuals, pray for your in-laws, pray for the brother who gave salam to you at Jummah
It'll soften your heart and strengthen your Imaan
Utilize the night prayer as if your life depends on it, cos it does.
Every big client I landed, every job, was right after Tahajud.
Want more wealth?- Tahajud
Want better health? - Tahajud
Want to get married? - Tahajud
Tie your camel, and trust Allah SWT.
Your duas should always be supported with consistent action.
Success is where preparation meets opportunity - so be prepared
Here's a few tips, a thread 🧵

We are but One Ummah
In two studies from 2019, scientists concluded that our attention spans are shrinking, they found that an abundance of information narrows our collective attention spans.
A lowered average attention span can come with a variety of adverse health effects.
So apparently marrying an Emirati gets you the following perks:
- Free school for your kids
- A plot of land in the Emirates
- other financial perks
And one of the ONLY non-Emirati ethnicities they accept are Somali men 👀

This is Abdallah, and he just about crossed the Rafah border 🇵🇸
He’s not looking for pity, or likes - he needs a job.
He’s lost everything in this war, and allahumabrik he’s an experienced software developer.

Last year I spent Ramadan in Saudi, and spent my weekends in Mecca.
I vowed to myself that I’d return and do Umrah every year and spend Ramadan in a Muslim country.
Alhamdulilah, I was able to fulfil that promise, and intent to keep it going forward.
Utilize Tahajuud as if your life depends on it, cos it does.
Every big client I landed, every job, was right after Tahajud.
Most people are asleep or on their phones.
But no, not you.
You're asking the Creator to give you his Creation 🌍
Those of you who use big portions of your salary to help family , you are being rewarded abundantly and being saved from a lot of calamities.
I know it's tough, but we'll be smiling ear to ear once it's all said and done 🙏🏾
Just sad seeing a young man trying to get married to stay away from haram only for her parents to tell him to pay up $10k for her mahr. Sickening wallahi.
First week in Dubai, here are my thoughts:
- It’s bloody hot
- The service here is incredible
- The business opportunities here is incredible, definitely a city for hustlers
- Rent is cheaper than I thought (£1k for a 1 bed in Dubai South)
"Hey hey hey... this is a studio where there is peace!"

The biggest disease in our generation is thinking we haven't achieved much in our early 20s.
Allah SWT will drop us into Jannah at age 33.
Thats almost a whole decade away for many of us.
Set systems in place, and execute daily, leave the rest to your Lord.
in 2021, Tamsin et al published research indicating that those with shorter attention spans (as a result of high SM use) have a higher risk of psychological distress and related mental health issues.
This research went into looking at resistance to advertising
Might be a bit controversial, but it's actually quite simple to make an extra £2k/m online in 6 months.
Anyone can do it
The issue is, that most people fall prey to shiny object syndrome.
I don't think most of you realize the damage TikTok has done to society.
Some people can't even hold a conversation anymore, it's madness 🤦🏾♂️
if they can't be stimulated in 10secs, they're not interested..💀
Please marry your best friend. The type of comfort they can provide no one else can. They really love you in and out. They can handle all mood swings to all crazy things you do. They love the real you! If you are lucky to have a best friend stop looking elsewhere. Commit to them.
If you want it bad enough you'll wake up 30mins before fajr and do 2 rakat. Bare minimum.
Its winter, this is your chance to ask the Creator for his Creation every morning.
So it turns out we follow other on IG 💀
I just DM’d him to say he’s trending on Twitter for the wrong reasons and he should resign to protect his hereafter.
I just hope he listens.
My lil sis took a year out after A-levels, so I was tutoring her since January.
She then did a few weeks internship as an E-commerce assistant.
Now she started her first role as an Assistant Digital Marketer for a bank
She sent me this snap today - couldn’t be more proud 🙏🏾🙏🏾
As a whole, they concluded that these individuals are more susceptible to advertisement manupulation.
A classic example is the increasing exposure to ‘trends’ and ‘challenges’ in apps such as TikTok.
This all means - alarmingly - that TikTok simultaneously decreases one attention span, impacts their behaviour, AND serves as a platform where a decreased attention span can be experienced AND realised.
However this is a wider concept stretching beyond TikTok alone, so why is the focus primarily there?
The best explanation is TikTok has a good way of keeping you on a platform which has never been seen before.
Videos are short 20-60secs, users are on avg spending 80mins
Yarimi University exposed himself in the first 19 secs of this podcast (link below).
I didn't wanna do this, but here goes:
Exposing Forex once and for all, a thread 🧵
Halal real estate opportunities I’ve seen:
25 people pitch in to a 250k house, 10k each.
They do it up, and sell. Each of them make 2.5k+ profit
Not bad
I’ve been saying this for time.
- Men going out to for dessert, too much sugar = increase in oestrogen
- not enough exercise
- Staying up till late watching crap
(Lack of sleep = low T levels)
Spending Ramadan in Saudi was the the perfect reset I needed, Alhamdulilah.
I almost feel like everything I did in my career led me to this moment. (1/2)
- Befriend people 3-5 years
ahead of you
- Get organized and plan your
weeks out.
- Schedule your day around
Prayer, not the other way
around.
- Solitude is better than bad
