Being in your 20s is full of beauty and youthful curiosity. For every Muslim woman navigating this decade, we must embrace it and prepare ourselves for what's to come. Time is slow and fast at the same time, so don't take it for granted. These years are for discovering who you are, not what others want you to be. This is the time to trust in Allah (SWT), and trust deeply in His qadr. So don't rush marriage, chase worldly desires, and assume you must have it all figured out. Instead, pour your time and energy into your Creator and choose your companions with intentions while building habits that serve your deen. Let this decade be less about pressure and more about presence grounded in faith. So let's go over a list of 20 something wisdoms to live by as you explore this decade.
