  • 163 - Light Upon Light



    A bit of departure from mixes you hear on Chill Pills podcast: this is an Islamic songs (nasheed) mix infused with some lo-fi and ambient. The mix is a personal reflection of a defining journey I’ve been on for the past 4 years and going strong.

    For the longest time, my heart was shackled by attachments to worldly pursuits. I sought perfection in an imperfect world. I grieved losses, including the deaths of close friends. I wrestled with cognitive dissonance, as my actions sometimes strayed from my values. My moral compass wavered, and with it, my priorities and sense of identity shifted constantly.

    But God had a plan for me—one that, in hindsight, I can now clearly trace through the defining moments of my life. That plan granted me the greatest gift of all: guidance back to His light, back to the Straight Path.

    I have found true freedom and contentment in complete submission. It may seem paradoxical. Prevailing "wisdom" equates freedom with the ability to chase every whim and ambition, promising that with enough "luck" and "hustle," happiness is within reach.

    Yet, in my experience, this is a mirage.

    Submission to His divine will has liberated me from the anxiety of the endless chase and the inevitable disappointments strewn along that path. For the past four years and counting, I have been striving to empty my heart of false idols and fill it solely with the love of what is pure: the love and reliance on Allah.

    The closer my actions brought me to Him, the more I felt His presence and innumerable blessings. One of the greatest transformative blessings was getting married in 2024—a milestone He made effortless in ways I could never have imagined.

    This light, His guidance, and walking His Straight Path have transformed me in every aspect of my life—as a son, a husband, a friend, a professional, and, most importantly, as a human being in a world that desperately needs more humanity.

    All this to say, dear listeners: my heart has been filled with light upon light, and I fervently wish for you to experience it in your lifetime. When all else has disappointed you, when nothing has filled that relentless void crying out for "love," "more," and "what's next," why not open your heart, even just a little, to this transformative light? A light that will not only grant you the contentment you seek in this world but also an eternal happiness in the next.

  • 162 - Light In the Darkness


    This passage from one of my favorite books, Love & Happiness by Yasmin Mogahed,  speaks true to my spiritual transformation over the last 5 years or so, and is the inspiration for this mix.
    I have been through some dark times in my life and I have had to make some very hard decisions. But I'll tell you what I’ve learned...

    Life isn’t supposed to be miserable. It isn’t supposed to be excruciatingly painful. It isn’t supposed to suffocate or drain you.

    Are there parts of life that will make you feel this way? Yes. Absolutely. But, why? We must ask why. Why do we go through these things? Is it so that we stay still and bear it stoically? Is it to passively endure and call patience?

    Absolutely not.

    In fact, we go through misery, pain, and suffocation for the exact opposite reason: To push us towards change. Movement. Growth. Patience is not standing still. Patience is not being passive. Sabr is the endurance necessary to make the change needed to move one step closer to where Allah wants us to be.

    God created pain, in both the physical and spiritual world, as a wakeup call. As a motivator and accelerator towards action, movement, and change to alleviate the pain.

    When a person has an infection, they feel fever. When a person's heart is clogged, they experience chest pain, or heart attack. A person can ignore fever or chest pain and call it “patience.” But if this pain is ignored and just numbed long enough, the sickness only increases. Until it actually kills us. Pain is a warning. A smoke alarm for the sleeping soul.

    If you feel suffocated, it’s probably because you're not getting enough oxygen. It works the same spiritually and emotionally as it does physically.

    Be brave enough to dig deep, to be honest. And then to take the action and change necessary to save your life.

    But, be careful. Never, ever take this action alone. Seek strength and guidance in God. Only then will you never drown or get lost.
    Alhamdulillah.

  • 161 - Seconds to Infinity


    "Every moment is its own universe. Each moment brings with it a new birth, a new opportunity to live, to turn back, to renew. Each moment is a new chance to get it right.

    And with each moment is also a death. Let the past die. If you messed up yesterday, that universe is already dead and gone. Right now is your new reality. Capture it, before it dies."

    Poetry by Yasmin Mogahed, from her book Love & Happiness

  • 160 - Gold In Them Hills


    "Every now and then life says
    Where do you think you're going so fast
    We're apt to think it cruel but sometimes
    It's a case of cruel to be kind

    If we'd only open our eyes
    We'd see the blessings in disguise
    That all the rain clouds are fountains
    Though our troubles seem like mountains

    There's gold in them hills
    So don't lose heart
    Give the day a chance to start

    A word or two, my friend
    There's no telling how the day might end
    And we'll never know until we see

    There's gold in them hills"
