"I'm proud of growth; spiritually, mentally, and maturity. Allah makes us go through things, to grow through things. We all have struggles that define who we are, and I can say that I overcame my biggest obstacles, and I found myself. Alhamdulillah! I don't like "planning" or thinking about the future too often. I learned to just go with the flow. I have goals, but I'm not pressing myself to achieve them; that's how you get disappointed. The Memphis ummah has always welcomed me with open arms. The support has been unending since I played basketball at U of M. Now that I work at PVS I officially feel a part of the Memphis ummah fam"- Bilqis Abdul-Qadir
