Flu season has hit our house hard, so we have been holed in trying to recuperate and thank Allah for our blessings.

One of the halal things we love to do at home is catch up on movies and television. We recently discovered an amazing series called Omar. It’s about Omar Ibn Khattab (ra)’s life. It’s more in depth than that though. It is literally almost like a whole walk through early Islamic history.

I learned so many different things! Another great benefit has been seeing how early Muslims sacrificed so much to establish our deen. I feel like such a wimp in comparison now. We are so fortunate to be able to practice our faith so freely in America Alh.

So if you have some time, please check out this series iA. Here is the link: Omar Series Ep 1
