Blogging Perseverance

The emel team, particularly the feature’s editor, Somaiya Khan, have been wanting me to blog for a long time. I have always resisted, telling them, “life is busy enough.” But they persisted. And persistence – as it tends to in life – won. So here I am with my first blog entry and my first musing: be persistent in life, for as the Qur’an says, “God is with those who patiently persevere.”
