Be the Best at What You Do

Recently, I had the honour of sitting down with Sheikh Assim al Hakeem for a Freshly Grounded episode.

During our conversation, one particular concept he shared really stuck with me.

He explained, "If every Muslim was to become a scholar, then who would drive the buses? Who would teach our children in schools? Who would be a dentist?" 

It was a powerful reminder that we all have unique roles to play in society.

Here are 3 key points on how we can reflect on our roles and add value:

1. Reflect on Your Strengths and Passions

Every one of us has unique strengths and passions.

Whether you're great with numbers, have a knack for teaching, or can cook up a storm in the kitchen, these talents are not random.

They are gifts that can be used to benefit others and serve the community.

2. Embrace Your Role in Society

We can't all be scholars, and that's perfectly okay.

Society needs a mix of players to keep the game tight.

Whether you’re driving buses, teaching kids, or fixing teeth, every role is critical and deserves respect.

Own your spot and aim to be the best in your lane.

3. Use Your Talents to Benefit the Ummah

Whatever your profession or skill set, there are always ways to benefit the Muslim community.

Volunteer your time, offer your services, or simply be a role model in your field.

When we all contribute in our unique ways, we create a strong, supportive, and thriving community.
