Assalamu alaykum WW.
In this post I want to mention some details of our life here in Madinah.
We live in an area called Al Azhari which is about 10 minutes away from the Haram by car on a moderately busy day. Our house is within the boundary of the Haram areas of Madinah. We can see the mountains of Uhud from our house and we can also see the minarets of Masjid an Nabawi when we step out the house.
Currently my husband and I work at Taiba University teaching English to preparatory year students. These are students who have completed high school and are doing a foundation year before they begin their undergraduate studies.
Life in Madinah, like life anywhere in the world has its ups and downs. However, Alhamdulilah we get consolation from the sayings of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as narrated by Muslim:
Ibn 'Umar (Allah be pleased with them) reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: He who patiently endures the hardships of it (of this city of Medina), I would be an intercessor or a witness on his behalf on the Day of Resurrection.
So it is Alhamdulilah all the way in The City of Light!
