Thank you for continuing to support my little small business. Because of YOU, we were able to contribute a portion of our quarter sales to Palestine Red Crescent Society. Thank you so much for supporting us!

Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) is an officially recognized independent Palestinian National Society. Its mission is to provide humanitarian assistance as well as health and social services to Palestinians. It works towards preventing and allaying human suffering, protecting life and health, ensuring the respect of human dignity, preventing disease, and promoting health, social care and volunteering both in times of peace and war as well as during emergencies, crises and disasters.
PRCS will continue to focus on emergency medical response, disaster preparedness and response, social and healthcare services, physical and psychosocial rehabilitation, protection, respect of international humanitarian law, and improving operational systems and procedures.
Over the last six months, I have watched medical members of this organization save life after life, women children and men in the most abhorrent conditions. Despite the difficult circumstances they face in the Gaza Strip, their medical teams have been tirelessly working around the clock to fulfill their humanitarian responsibilities to the people in Gaza Strip. Even when they are facing the very same threats upon them including direct targeting of PRCS medical teams and individuals they remain steadfast in their humanitarian mission.

Today is the second day of Ramadan. It’s hard to feel joyous this Ramadan with all that is happening in this world especially while such a magnitude of human suffering is being displayed right before our eyes on our phones. Before social media, peoples’ suffering had a limited reach globally. Now, we all have a front row seat, so do not sit idle.

As an American, it is our civic duty to utilize the rights that the people before us fought so hard for. As Americans, we have the power to effectuate change through our freedom of assembly (protests), our freedom of speech (including social media), and freedom of petition to our government for a redress of grievances. So, call your representatives and let them know your grievances - especially those of which include injustices that our government is supporting with our taxpayer dollars. We have a duty to educate ourselves and others about how our taxpayer dollars are being used to sustain oppression. Keep sharing, liking, saving, commenting on every post of injustice you see in this world to boost them on the algorithm and continue the momentum of this freedom movement.

As a Muslim, Islam does not encourage us to be mere bystanders to any form of injustice; we are morally obliged to do what we can within our power to eradicate oppression without ourselves being the oppressor.

“O Believers! Stand firm for justice as witnesses for God even if it is against yourselves, your parents or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor:, God is best to ensure their interests. So do not let your desires cause you to deviate from justice. If you distort the testimony (evidence) or refuse to give it, then know that God is certainly All-Aware of what you do.” - Quran Translation 4:135
Islam teaches that even in the midst of great crisis, society must still function. So enjoy this Ramadan to its fullest but, while we celebrate in joyous moments do not forget the people of Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Uyghurs, Rohingya, USA Natives and any other oppressed people in this world in our joy. May Allah (God) protect everyone and bring peace to all inshAllah (God Willing).

-Urooj, owner of Kahani

It’s been a while, hello! We took a short hiatus, because and I got married in Thailand!

There’s something magical about tying the knot in a faraway place. Thailand holds a soft spot in our hearts because it boasts of all the beauty of its picturesque natural surroundings, has the most irresistible aromas of its delicious food and is the home country of my husband’s family. So of course, when we thought about where we would like to have our destination wedding, it was our first choice. We are so blessed to have shared this special experience surrounded by our closest friends and family from all over the world.

Thanks to our amazing wedding planning team for bringing our dream wedding to life. The TBP team curated our organic wedding vision filled with a palette of creamy neutrals, climbing greenery, tropical florals and glimmering lights and made it even more beautiful and enchanted than we could have ever imagined. We worked closely with to create a design aesthetic that was truly a reflection of us. With only the use of Zoom calls, texts and thousands of miles between us, our wedding planning team thoughtfully captured every sentimental moment in their design detail. The TBP team went above and beyond to make every detail of our special day memorable.

We promised you we had a really good reason for our hiatus 😉 But, we are back in action and ready to serve you some exciting things from Kahani this year. Stay tuned. 📻

A special thank you to our amazing team of wedding vendors that made every moment possible and more
