AA Imam Sykes, somehow if there were ever an Imam to play Grateful Dead, I somehow envision it would be you :)) !
Thank you for your kind words and yes, I am seeking spiritual and quiet growth during this time. I am enrolled in IOU's diploma you have done so very well and know the doctors are scratching their heads :).

To All my pbj family -
Just wanted to say thank you for all the duas, prayers, chants, et al for
my Mom. Brought her home Christmas Eve after 2 1/2 mo in rehab from the
strokes. We are doing ok, it is hard for her as she is nearly completely
wheelchair bound. So glad I am home and we are able for me to be home to
take care of her!
At this end of the Gregorian year, I just wanted all the "peace" and
"rabble" makers in our family, i.e., all of us, to take a few moments to
stop and remember what we are thankful for...what we envision...what we are
incensed by...and what we pray for the strength to do about it in the
coming year. This group is unique, and certainly one I am so very proud to
count among my friends and family.
May Allah (swt) send baracka (blessings) to each and every one of you and
those who stand behind, and beside, you. New Year Mubaruk!
Sr. Amira

Assalaamualaikum dear sister Amira:
I pray you have an exceedingly abundant year spiritually,
physically,mentally and financially. I did not know about your mother's
stroke. I know from personal experience what it is like to be wheelchair
bound; may God grant her the recovery He has granted me. I went to a
neurologist recently who has been practicing 33 years. He told me, "I
don't know what you have done to recover, but I don't have another patient
like you. All praise is due to Allah. I am still doing hyperberic oxygen
treatments and will complete the maximum recommended number of oxygen
treatments in March. Thanks to you, I play the keyboard and my son
accompanies me on his guitar. It has been great bonding and is the first
time in my 55 years I ever branched out to play other than sacred music.
.Imagine an imam playing Jerry Garcia tunes from the Grateful Dead. It is
nice to receive you email and hope to see you soon. Come to see us
sometimes.
Love for His sake,
Imam Abdurrahman Sykes
