10 More Struggles That Muslims Have, As Told By Memes
Huffington Post

You guys asked for it yet again, and so I delivered as ordered. Without any further ado, let's jump right into it! (Check out the first set of "halal" memes here.)

1. All the hijab questions.


Do you shower in your hoodie? No, right? Oh, what a shocker!

2. Trying to perform wudhu in a public place.


Lots of people know that Muslims need to pray five times a day. However, those same people don't know that we have to *essentially* wash/purify ourselves before we do so, a process called wudhu in Arabic.

Well, that's all well and good...until you find yourself on the road washing your feet in a rest stop sink because it's almost time to pray Maghrib and there's a bunch of people walking in and out who are looking at you like you're crazy...yeah. #wudhustrugglesarereal

3. Pork...yeah, no.


Sorry Sharon, but I'm going to have to pass on that pulled pork sandwich. And yes, we CAN look at the cute little piglets at the petting zoo. <3

4. "You're Muslim? What language do you speak at home?"

I'm sorry, but do you speak Christian at home?

No...just, no. S T O P.

5. Those non-Muslim friends who try to be "in" with Muslim culture. Seriously, though, we <3 you.

Oh, sweetie. You tried your best, really, you did. And we absolutely adore you for it, even if we do laugh at you. Only a little thought, I promise.

(It's supposed to be Eid Mubarak for those who don't get the reference :D)

6. Dates? Oh...you must mean the fruit, right?


Keep it halal, bro. (I'm not trynna die here! @my parents) xoxo

7. Gelatin memes are the best memes, amirite?


SERIOUSLY. Marshmallows, Starbursts, gelato...why does everything delicious have gelatin in it? WHY?

8. Marriage. (LOL)


This one killed me, okay. Us Muslim gals are pros at swerving marriage, lol. #sorrynotsorry #collegefirst #kbye

9. Muslim feminists are the real OGs.


For y'all's information, women are considered to be queens in Islam. We actually have just as much rights as men do. :) But still, I couldn't help but share. #toogood

10. That awkward moment when...


Oh! You noticed that I got my nails done, too...*laughs nervously*

...

I'M ON MY PERIOD OKAY NOW SHHHHHHHHH

(Fun fact: you can't pray or fast when you're on your period :D) #themoreyouknow


And that's a wrap! Thank you all so much for the support--it's you lovely souls that make articles like this possible! Let me know what you think of this latest installment of memes by Lydia :)

If I get an equally positive response as the last meme article, you may be able to expect more in the future!

Until then!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
