Know Me

Asalam-o-alaikum wa rehmatullahi wa barakatuh 🙂

Hope you are doing fine (in sha ALLAH).

I am Areena Ali Memon also known as Umm Ruqaiya. I was born and brought up in Pakistan. Currently, I live in U.S. I have been blessed to experience Hyderabadi, India culture closely alhamdulillah. In 2016, by the will & fadhl of ALLAH, I started my journey of Motherhood. That is just to give you an idea where I am coming from 🙂

This blog is a platform for me to share my thoughts, beliefs, ideas, tips, notes and other beneficial content that makes me who I am as an individual. If anyone learns even one thing from me and that helps them it will be an honor for me. I have had people in life, and I still have, who have helped me push through rough times simply for the sake of Allah and out of good will. Some of those people barely knew me, some times only my name and problem in hand. Just like them, I also don’t need to know someone personally to help them, to lend a listening ear or give words of hope and motivation. In this world of so much negativity, I want to be among those who are trying to spread positivity as much as we can.

While blog is the place where I share my thoughts in writing, YouTube is where I am able to drop quick reminders/naseehah. You can reach out to me on instagram as well @thrivingwithareena
