Last weekend, I visited my local coop to stock up on organic Annie’s macncheese, alcohol free vanilla extract, and rapunzel bouillon, and a great sense of happiness settled upon me. I was amongst my people, my earth loving, tree hugging, hippy dippy people.
Since we began to eat soley zabiha + unprocessed foods, both AbuS and I have felt a tremendous amount of baraka in our lives and in our marriage. Why wouldn’t all muslims want to feel the same? Then I felt a little sad. Where were all the earth loving, tree hugging, hippy dippy muslims? Alhamdulilah, they’re out there.
Via The Muslimah on FB:
There isn’t much yet on the site, but rest assured, I shall be checking it obsessively.
I’m especially excited about this challenge, to submit islam/muslim based food wisdom to Michael Pollen. I’m going to comb the hadith for wisdom from the blessed Prophet’s (saws) lips.
Awe…I love alcohol free vanilla extract! So much better. Inshallah I think more and more Muslims are slowly coming around to your way of doing things green.
I just saw the most lovely post for example by Umm Omar that offered tremendous hope and amde my spirit soar:

Love you lots!
Thanks for the link! I visited and commented :D
Alhamdulillah, thanks for the tip! I am also a big hippie so it’s great to see more Muslims going green (there is a pun there right?) and being healthy too!
