Jummah Mubarak everyone. May you reap the benefits and rewards of this day.
I’m wrapping up client work today by noon, insha’Allah, because I work half days on Fridays so that I can attend jummah with my family. Most of the time I pick up my work later in the evening after hubby leaves for work and the kids are settled in bed. Working for myself allows me to make those choices, and I am very greatful, masha’Allah.
If you spend any time on Twitter, you know that today is #FF (a.k.a. Follow Friday). The object is to let your followers know who you recommend following. I‘ve decided to detail my #FF picks each Friday here and post the link on Twitter. The reason I’m doing this is because I want to share the reasons why I recommend following someone on Twitter. I want to share the value I believe you will receive when you follow the individuals I’m recommending, and that you know I’m not just participating in some popularity contest. So without further ado, here are my #FF picks for this week:
@ummahdesign
This UK-based web firm specializes in proving web design, SEO, social media and other Internet marketing services for Muslim businesses globally (how cool is that?). They tweet lots of very useful, timely information, tips and advice for businesses. If you need information about improving online visibility for your blog or website, or just need Internet marketing advice, follow these guys.
@ProductiveMuslim
This is another UK-based resource I recommend following. I don’t know about you, but improving productivity is a never-ending quest for me. I get great productivity, organization and time-management tips via Twitter and email (after subscribing to their mailing list). They also share some REALLY amazing Islamic apps.
@MyHalalKitchen
What can I say – I’m a closet foodie. When I saw her avatar on Twitter one day, my mouth watered and I immediately knew that I MUST follow. Sister Yvonne has an awesome food blog and kindly tweets many of her amazing recipes, kitchen organization tips and from time to time some interesting tidbits about herself (she seems so down to earth and has a lovely sense of humor). Follow her, y’all.
That’s it for this week. Be sure to check back next Friday for more #FF recommendations. Also, you can follow me (@WorkingMuslimah) by simply clicking the Twitter button on the right side of this blog.
Muslimahs Working at Home was created to provide women with a financial alternative to earning an income outside of the home. Our objective is to share resources and tools needed to operate a successful, home-based business.
