SABR DOESN’T MEAN DOING NOTHING!

Growing up in our Pakistani and Muslim communities, how many times have we heard someone say, “Bas sabr karo, Allah behtar karega”?

And of course, having sabr and trusting Allah is a beautiful part of our faith.

But does having patience mean we should just sit back and do nothing?

In this clip from The Majid Khan Podcast, Gehad Mursi makes a very interesting point.

If your house was on fire, would you sit there and say, “I’m trusting Allah”? Of course not. You would take action to protect yourself and your family.

So why do we sometimes forget this when dealing with problems in our lives?

I think sabr and taking action should go hand in hand.

But let me ask you something: Have we sometimes used the word “sabr” to encourage people to put up with situations when they actually needed help or a solution?

I’d genuinely like to hear your thoughts, especially from those who have experienced this.

IT’S NOT JUST SOMEONE’S MONEY. IT’S THEIR TRUST. ❤️

I think one of the biggest problems in business today is losing people’s trust.

You pay someone for a product or service, and you’re trusting them to deliver what they promised.

But how many times have we heard stories of people paying money and being let down?

In my latest conversation with Kambiz Mouj, co-founder of Haks & Co, he talks about a difficult time when customers were starting to lose trust because of delays with their orders.

What I found interesting was how seriously he took that responsibility.

In Islam, we have a word for this: Amanah.

When someone trusts you with their money, that’s not a small thing.

And I think this goes beyond business. Whether it’s money, a promise or someone’s confidence, trust is something we should never take lightly.

Let me ask you something.

Have you ever paid someone for a product or service and felt they completely broke your trust?

And once that trust is broken, can a business ever win it back?

I’d genuinely like to hear your experiences.

Why is a strong-minded woman sometimes seen as a problem in our community?

I’ve seen this in our Pakistani culture. When a man speaks his mind, people often call him confident. But when a woman does the same, suddenly she’s too opinionated or difficult.

But is that really fair?

In this clip from The Majid Khan Podcast, Gehad Mursi talks about this and shares the example of Umm Salamah (RA), who was known for asking questions and expressing her views.

I personally believe there’s nothing wrong with having strong opinions, whether you’re a man or a woman. But the way we express those opinions matters too.

So here’s my question:

Are we sometimes confusing our Pakistani cultural expectations with Islam?

I’d genuinely like to hear both men’s and women’s views.

DOCTOR? LAWYER? ENGINEER? OR JUST A GOOD HUMAN BEING? ❤️

Growing up in a Pakistani family, many of us have heard these words:

“Become a doctor.”
“Become a lawyer.”
“Get a good job.”
“Make the family proud.”

And I understand where our parents are coming from. Most of them worked incredibly hard and made sacrifices so their children could have a better future.

But I sometimes wonder…

Are we so focused on our children’s careers that we forget about their character?

What if your son wants to become a footballer?

What if your daughter wants to start her own business?

What if their dreams are completely different from what you imagined for them?

In my latest conversation, Kambiz Mouj, co-founder of Haks & Co, shares a message for parents: focus on raising good people first and encourage children to follow their dreams.

Of course, financial security matters. Education matters. But surely honesty, kindness, respect and good character matter just as much.

So here’s my question to British Pakistani parents: Are we putting too much pressure on our children to choose certain careers, or are we simply trying to protect their future?

I’d genuinely love to hear from both parents and their children.

THE LIFESTYLE YOU ENVY MIGHT BE RENTED! 👀

The expensive cars. The luxury boats. The parties. The perfect lifestyle.

Every day, we scroll through social media watching people who seem to have everything.

And sometimes, without even realising it, we start comparing our own lives with theirs.

Why am I not earning that much?
Why am I not successful yet?
Why can’t I afford those things?

But here’s something worth thinking about.

How much of what we see on social media is actually real?

In my latest conversation with Kambiz Mouj, co-founder of Haks & Co, he talks about how some people create the appearance of wealth through rented cars, boats and luxury experiences.

And when others see that lifestyle, they begin to feel they’re missing out.

That’s where FOMO, the fear of missing out, comes in.

I think we need to remind ourselves that there’s a difference between someone’s real life and what they choose to show us online.

Here’s my question: Is social media inspiring people to work harder, or is it making people unhappy with the lives they already have?

I’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts.

TWO YEARS IN BUSINESS. NOT A SINGLE SALARY! 💔

Everyone sees the success. The business, the brand, the social media following.

But what about the sacrifices nobody sees?

In my latest conversation with Kambiz Mouj, co-founder of Haks & Co, he shares how he and his business partner spent two years building their business without paying themselves a salary.

Money was coming into the business, but they chose to reinvest it rather than take it home.

And it made me think about something.

Following your dreams is one thing. But what happens when you have bills to pay, a family to support and responsibilities you simply cannot ignore?

Not everyone is in a position to take that kind of risk.

So here’s my question: Would you work for two years without taking a salary to build your dream business? Or would you choose the security of a regular income?

I’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts.

Guest: Haks & Co

24/10/2026

Sometimes, the need to feel accepted can make you change how you act and do things just to please other people.

In this clip, my guest explains how wanting to be seen and accepted can become people-pleasing. Have you ever felt you had to change yourself to be accepted?

This is my guest’s perspective from The Majid Khan Podcast. Share your thoughts respectfully.

Why is it so difficult for couples to meet in the middle?

In today’s clip, Sophia Khalid, Founder and CEO of British Muslim Marriages, shares her thoughts on compromise, disagreements about living with in-laws, and finding a way forward after an argument.

This is Sophia’s perspective from our conversation on The Majid Khan Podcast. What do you think? Can compromise help couples work through disagreements? Share your thoughts respectfully.

Imagine meeting someone on a Muslim marriage app. Both of you say you’re serious about marriage.

You spend months talking, getting to know each other, building expectations, and perhaps even imagining a future together.

Then, when it’s finally time to involve the families and discuss marriage, the other person backs out.

A whole year gone!

During my conversation with Sophia Khalid, founder of British Muslim Marriage, we discussed how some people spend far too long in the talking stage without taking any meaningful steps towards marriage.

Sophia raises an interesting question about whether families should be involved much earlier.

But I want to hear from our British Muslim community.

If two people are genuinely looking for marriage, should they involve their families within three months? Or is that too soon?

And for parents, would you prefer to be involved from the beginning?
